Here is the option to resize an image for a FileMaker icon on Windows with a built-in program.

1. Open the image in the "Photos" app then click the three dots in the top-right corner
2. A small pop-up will appear, click "Define custom dimensions" at the bottom.
3. Set the width and height to 288 pixels
4. Set your new dimensions, and then click "Save resized copy."

What I'd love to know is can we make our Apps _'Standalone'_ Apps and sell them commercially? and if we can what are the licensing issues surrounding them? As many I've put allot of time into making some really handy Apps that I'm sure would have commercial value, but having put in all the effort they are only used by me which is rather disheartening and has had me thinking about moving to another platform.
