While custom Chrome, Android Studio and Postman icons have great resolution, the other icons look bad. I believe many icons have this problem. (I use 32 inch 2k display)

Thanks for pointing it out, I've figured what the problem is. It's because of the scaling algorithm used, I've now updated it to use Bezier instead of Bilinear. This change will apply to all new icons, when time allows it I might apply it to existing ones.

Just to be sure, would you mind trying this Spark icon? I converted it using the updated scaling algorithm.

@elrumo Hi! I just discovered that problem with resampling, started to prepare issue details, but there's already an issue :)
I also found old issue about same thing: #857

Hard-edged aliasing can be visible in launchpad, finder and other places. But not on dock.

Show the difference of .icns between local "Icon Maker Pro" result vs yours using icons i uploaded as example. Big Sur 11.1 4k.

I just found out smoothscroll from @techtheist's screenshots and it's awesome :) @elrumo just an idea, Maybe you should make most downloaded sort option. It's a great way to discover new apps.

Grateful for your work, elrumo!

Unnecessary example of good looking icons
