Club Penguin Wiki:Image Guides/Icon Images
To get high quality images for clothing, furniture and igloo icons, you will need two programs called Kurst SWF Renderer and SWiX.
Kurst SWF Reinderer
Kurst SWF Renderer is a tool that converts SWF files to PNG images. It has some very helpful settings, like resizing file and changing its background color. Download the program from here. The version 1.0 is more than enough to get high quality images.
Features
Files and Directory selections
This features allows selecting the file to convert, and the folder in your computer on which the PNG image will be saved to.
Frame rate
Determines how many frames per second to convert from the file.
Content scale
Determines the scale of the PNG image by the size of the original SWF file (in pixels). The number 1 is for the same size. Lower numbers are for making smaller PNG images, and larger number are for bigger images.
Background
By default, Kurst SWF Renderer uses a transparent background for files. If you want to use a colored background, deselect the "Transparent" box and set a HEX color value into the input box above it.
Exporting stop
There are several options for stopping the conversion:
- When the last frame is reached.
- After a time that you set (in seconds).
Export options
By default, Kurst SWF Renderer will create a new folder in the folder that you selected, and add to it all the exported PNG images. You can select to directly add them into the selected folder by deselecting the "Export SWFs to sub folders" box.

- Make sure that Move to right and left are both 1000, Multiply shape dimensions by is 40 and the New window size is 4000.
- Copy what will appear in the Output and open the SWiX again.
- Replace the codes in the SWiX with the output that appeared in the Quick Drop Converter and then save it.
- Open the Kurst SWF Renderer, then "select folder" to select the destination where the images will appear (it is recommended that the swf files and images remain in one folder).
- Change frame rate to "1", content scale to "1" and the stop exporting to "1" (if you don't get a high dimensions, please contact Wolfgangs to help you).
