Guitar Amp Track icon collection, how to use in SONAR?

Here's a really nice collection of amp icons (courtesy of Fractal forum member SynFactory) I'd like to use in SONAR.  There's probably a simple process to tweak these properly to fit/work in SONAR, but I haven't found it. Suggestions? TIA

    Just convert the icons to .bmp files if they are not already, resize to 128x128 and drop them in your icon folder.

    Sometimes if the image is too large or too small and you resize it, it doesnt look as good.

    A lot of people are afraid of heights. Not me, I'm afraid of widths.

    Thanks guys. I should have mentioned I'd already tried saving as bmp and reducing the size, but doing so just crops to a small part of the original image instead of shrinking the entire image.

    Do not crop, you need to resize. I use photoshop, but what I reccomend you use is paint. resize/skew the picture and Save as bmp. Then move the bmp to the icons folder. Done!

    I just grabbed them and converted to bmp using paint.net and they're working fine... I'm sure they'll come in very handy over time...

    much thanks to all involved...

    I tried the paint stretch, looks like it will work. Thanks
