I've read that new beta of the Pil now add support for icns file format, nice, but in the code of the plugin i read that there is only the read support, so, i cannot convert icns in other format and vice-versa? And if i load icns, work on it, then i cannot save..... Can someone tell me something about it? Someone have tried? That is correct, this is read-only support. You may not save icns files with the code in PIL.

But starting by reading a icns, i can save a png or jpg?

You could of course do it the native way, using Mac APIs, or just by dragging images into Icon Composer.

There is a fast way to produce icns starting from a 128x128 image (format Png, jpg doesn't matter)? What Mac Api i must use? I've search documentation, but found about nothing (maybe I'm not able to search), i want write a python program to convert images in icns in a background fast way, i can't drop 1000 image con icon composer =)

Thanks for the fast repply
