S2 and Scribbler File Association Icon - Attn Bump

Hey all,

I just got a new laptop, running Windows 7 Home Edition. Intel i5 Core, 64 bit.

Loaded the newest Propeller Tool, S2 Program Maker and Scribbler Program Maker (for 64 bit).
The scb files didn't automatically associate with the software. So, I told Windows to open with...

Rather than the traditional Green Gear file pic/icon, I have a piece of paper file pic with an S2 or Scribbler on the pic (as the file type icon). See attached.

I wrote Phil Pilgrim, He had no idea and no way to test since he doesn't have Window 7 Home (64 bit). Any ideas?

Also, when I try to upload a scb file to the Parallax Forums, it doesn't recognize the files. Phil said that the forum don't allow the attachment of scb files. Hey Bump, Can you fix this part?
Otherwise, the way I have it works okay, but I kinda miss the green gear symbol. Thanks for any help you might can give me.

    Whit,

    Just so you know, Bump can fix the forum upload stuff, but the Win7 association/icon issues are unrelated. Also, this should be moved to "Support for Using this Forum" so he'll see it there. (I'll flag the thread for you for the moderators.)

    Where are all the Microsoft clowns yelling, "Windows 7 was MY idea" when it doesn't work as advertised? :)

    Scribble it up! We'll work on getting an icon for that file extension type for the forums with the next push.
    Thank you for bringing this to my attention!

    @ Bump - Thanks for the promp fix Bump

    @Phil - Opps! I was thinking about the file issue only when I posted here - Thanks for straightening me out, buddy...As far as spies, look at those eyes - he is always watching...

    @erco - I may have messed it up when I made the file association myself. it created its own icon (I miss the green gear though!)

    I had one other idea - I will try it and let you all know if it works. Edit - Nope! Didn't work. I guess that is just how it is going to look. It works fine - just doesn't look the same.
