ESRI ArcGIS Mobile App Icons - Needed for Training Documents

Jeremy_Z — Thu, 26 Oct 2023 16:48:57 GMT

Hello everyone, got an interesting and easy one here. I've looked through a bunch of different searches both on Google and here in the forums, but can't find something that should be rather easy.

ESRI Mobile App Icons.

What do I mean?

The actual icons for ESRI's mobile apps like Field Maps, QuickCapture, Survey123, and Workforce, along with any others. I can find plenty of the icons, but they all have white backgrounds. It looks fine here...

They look terrible here...

I figured there'd be a Press Kit or Media Kit somewhere with these in there, but I haven't been able to find one. With more and more dark themes popping up everywhere (thank goodness) I would love to find some of these with a transparent background.

You can use paint 3d to make the backgrounds transparent in the icons you have.

Oh? Hmm, I've got paint 3D and will give it a shot, thank you for the link. I'm surprised it's just not something available from ESRI already.

Maybe it is, but if so I don't know where 🙂

I usually use GIMP software. Select one continuous color (the background) and delete it. Then export as PNG.

I've a folder of scrumped images just for presentations.

That's a good idea too, I wish we had GIMP here at work but alas.

GIMP is free to use.

Yeah, that's a nice thing about it. Easy to use too. I used it some time ago on my personal computer for personal stuff. This is work related, it isn't authorized, and I don't do work on my personal computer/devices.

I'll get to this one day soon, and probably give the Paint 3d method a try as it's installed approved.

I decided I needed to collate my app-icon images anyway. And, it probably isn't all of them, just the ones I saw...
