Software icons

Some of my software licences show an icon of the program, others only show a generic icon. I thought that one simply had to drag the program onto the 1P icon in the Mac to produce a software licence ...

Ah, I've found the cause. I like to name the licences with their version, particularly if I want to keep the licence for the old version for some reason.

So my licences are named as Bartender 5, TechTool Pro 19, and so on. As soon as I removed the version number, the rich icon appeared. But I see that if I put the version number in the licence details rather than in the title, the version is shown in the middle pane, which is good enough.

I think some of the less common programs may not currently have rich icons in the database, but I'll take a look after I have corrected the major ones.
