Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No Windows 11 style icon available

Describe the solution you'd like
Adding a 6th icon/overlay style that makes it blend in with normal Windows 11 icons

Describe alternatives you've considered
Either finding another program, or switching the style to something else

Additional context
For example, this is how it looks for me today using FolderIco, which is very manual work

Hey, the Professional mode requires much more manual control, considering the amount of variety
Also while it's pretty similiar I don't feels it's similiar enough

If you don't want to do this I can try and get used to another format, but I'd much prefer if it matched the OS, thank you

for this case, where different users might want a different folder overlay, I started development on a plugin system for FoliCon,

https://github.com/DineshSolanki/FoliCon/tree/feature/overlay-plugin

though its currently on pause due to the issue of malicious code execution through FoliCon.

Once the plugin feature is complete, anyone will be able to create different overlays and share to community as well, instead of relying on the fix overlays shipped with FoliCon.

If you or anyone you know would like to contribute to the development of this feature, I would greatly appreciate it.

Maybe this project can help with the base resource: https://github.com/icon11-community/Folder11
Specifically the figma and illustrator: https://github.com/icon11-community/Folder11/tree/main/template

the issue is vertical poster might not scale properly with this, as this will work best with horizontal posters, I'll still see what we can do

Absolutely, Horizontal is the best fit
If going for Vertical support, centering it vertically is the only option (maybe even 2/3rd up), which may work but not always

Yeah, it might not be a good icon as most posters are verticals, will still try something

Time for me to learn AI/ML stuff to have it look through the image to find optimal centering point (I wish)

Well it would surely help FoliCon as well😄
