_In the end, I'm just an average person on the internet. My role involves is just bringing together the work and ideas of others to bring this project to happed. <br>_
104+
105+
- This project was inspired by ![Anime Icon Matcher 2018](http://www.mediafire.com/?nv3m231s8h9be) by serenity !29TgfcZgPU, which I used a lots in the past.
106+
- This project owes its existence to ![ImageMagick](https://github.com/ImageMagick/ImageMagick), the tool that is use to process and edit images.
107+
- I utilize the ![SingleInstanceAccumulator](https://github.com/Beej126/SingleInstanceAccumulator) by Beej126 to accumulate the selected items in Explorer so it doesn't make a new instance for each selected items.
108+
- I use PSD templates by ![em1l](https://www.deviantart.com/em1l), ![saikuro](https://www.deviantart.com/saikuro), ![mauricioestrella](https://www.deviantart.com/mauricioestrella) and ![90scomics.com](http://www.90scomics.com) to create all available folder icon templates.
109+
- While working on this project, I also drew some inspiration from ![FolderIco](http://folderico.com) and ![Raticon](http://jamedjo.github.io/Raticon) by Jamedjo.<br>
