XF 2.3 Eggy Forum Icon Maker 1.1.0

[laurent68]

Additional requirements : XenForo 2.3.12 or newer

Forum Icon Maker is completely free to download and use, so you can install it, try everything out and keep using it without needing to buy anything.

Eggy Forum Icon Maker is a complete Admin CP workspace for creating, refining and exporting forum icons directly inside XenForo.

Instead of preparing every icon externally, resizing files one by one and repeatedly checking how they look against different backgrounds, Forum Icon Maker brings the entire workflow into one place. Import your artwork, position it on the canvas, apply styling and effects, preview it at real-world sizes, create visual variants and export production-ready icon packs.

Everything is designed around the sizes and presentation requirements of forum artwork rather than being a generic image editor.

Artwork workspace​

Import individual icons or build a complete matching set.

Supported artwork formats include:

• PNG
• JPEG
• WebP

The Asset Library keeps your source artwork together while you work and makes it easy to move between different icons without repeatedly importing files.
Artwork can also be copied between configurations, normalised as a set or used as the basis for saved presets.

Live canvas editing​

The central canvas gives you direct control over how the artwork sits inside the final icon.

You can:

• Scale artwork
• Adjust horizontal positioning
• Adjust vertical positioning
• Add internal padding
• Rotate artwork
• Flip horizontally
• Flip vertically
• Enable pixel-art processing
• Centre artwork instantly
• Smart-fit artwork to the canvas
• Reset positioning
• Show a safe-area guide

Artwork can also be moved directly on the canvas and resized using the interactive controls.

Flexible canvas sizing​

Create icons at the dimensions you actually need.

The editor includes standard forum-icon sizes as well as support for custom dimensions.

Control how artwork fits the canvas using:

• Contain
• Fill
• Transparent-margin trimming
• Custom width and height
• Custom padding

This makes it much easier to keep differently shaped source images visually consistent across an icon set.

Art Studio​

Art Mode provides a dedicated set of creative tools for turning source artwork into finished icon designs.

The workspace is divided into:

• Styles
• Background
• Shape
• Effects
• Colour
• Variants

You can start with a quick style or build the appearance manually.

Quick Styles​

Apply ready-made visual directions to artwork and then fine-tune the result.

Available styling concepts include looks such as:

• Clean
• Gaming
• Neon
• Gold

Quick Styles are intended as starting points rather than locked presets, so the individual settings remain editable afterwards.

Create backgrounds directly behind your artwork using:

• Transparent backgrounds
• Solid colours
• Linear gradients
• Radial gradients
• Adjustable background opacity

Gradient tools include multiple colour stops and preset palettes such as:

• Ocean
• Midnight
• Teal
• Gold
• Purple

This allows a single source icon to be adapted to completely different forum styles without rebuilding the artwork externally.

Effects Studio​

Add depth and separation using dedicated effect controls.

Available effect groups include:

• Shadow
• Glow
• Atmosphere
• Outline

Effects can be applied independently to the canvas presentation and artwork, with controls for values such as:

• Blur
• Opacity
• X offset
• Y offset
• Colour
• Strength

This gives you much finer control than applying a single generic shadow to the entire image.

Colour controls​

Adjust the visual treatment of artwork directly from the editor.

Colour tools are designed to work alongside styles, backgrounds and effects, allowing different versions of the same source artwork to be created without maintaining multiple source files.

Variant Studio​

Create multiple visual versions from one source.

Variants are useful when you want:

• Different colour treatments
• Alternative backgrounds
• Different style directions
• Matching icon families
• Theme-specific versions

Choose which variants should be included in the final output rather than exporting everything manually.

Live Inspector​

The Inspector shows how the finished icon behaves outside the editing canvas.

Preview against:

• Alpha transparency
• Light backgrounds
• Dark backgrounds
• Black backgrounds

The Inspector also reports the current artwork, appearance and output configuration.

Actual-size preview​

Large editor previews can hide problems that only become obvious once an icon is reduced to its real display size.

Forum Icon Maker includes actual-size checks across common icon dimensions, including:

• 16px
• 24px
• 32px
• 48px
• 64px
• 96px
• 128px

This makes it much easier to spot detail loss, weak outlines, excessive effects or poor readability before exporting.

Context and comparison tools​

The Inspector includes dedicated views for:

• Preview
• Context
• Compare

These help you judge an icon as part of a real interface rather than only looking at an enlarged image on a checkerboard.

Output Studio​

Once the artwork is ready, Output Studio handles the final files.

Built-in XenForo forum-icon sizes include:

• 32×32
• 48×48
• 64×64
• 96×96
• 128×128

Custom sizes can also be added.

Output controls include:

• PNG export
• Custom filename templates
• ZIP organisation options
• Multiple output sizes
• Selected visual variants
• Individual icon export
• Complete icon-pack export

A single source can therefore generate an entire size and variant family in one workflow.

Presets and reusable settings​

Save configurations for designs you expect to use again.

Presets can retain your preferred visual setup, helping maintain consistency when producing larger icon families or returning to a project later.

Settings can also be copied between artwork items rather than recreated manually.

Browser-local image processing​

Artwork processing takes place locally in the browser while using the tool.

Your source artwork does not need to be sent to an external image-processing service simply to perform the editing workflow.

Built specifically for XenForo​

Forum Icon Maker is not intended to replace a full graphics package.

It is designed specifically to handle the repetitive part that comes after you already have artwork: sizing it correctly, positioning it consistently, creating matching treatments, checking how it behaves at forum sizes and producing the final files required for XenForo.

For communities that use custom node artwork, themed forum icons or complete visual icon sets, it provides a much faster workflow than preparing every variation manually.
