I was wondering if there was any way to use the original game icons instead of the ones that show it's a GOG bought game, i.e the circle around the icon image? It's kind of petty but it clashes with the rest of my desktop icons.

Thanks in advance!

I use the "classic" installers, so I don't know if it's any different with Galaxy.

The desktop icon is usually a shortcut that links to another executable file (with the original game icon). You can check what file it is linking to, find it in the installation folder and create a new shortcut specifically for the executable file, which will have the icon you want.

For example, The Witcher 1 launcher is a shortcut called "Launch The Witcher Enhanced Edition Director's Cut", which links to the executable file "launcher.exe" (to know where it is linking, right-click the shortcut and select "Properties"). Find launcher.exe, right-click it and create a new shortcut, et voilà. This is similar for the rest of GOG games. I wasn't able to find the original icon for all the games I have installed, though (most notable those using ScummVM - maybe they are set up in another way).

you know, that isn't the only game I play. :P

Tnx! These ones look much better than the ones in the previous gallery. :) So you're not done with Warcraft 2? :P

actually I am. Moved on to C&C 3

They are Rocketdock icons .

Exactly.

The new icons from gog are high-res and neat.
But its still good to be able to change them.

Example:
Dragon Age
