Amadeke Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 I tried ADVicon and it looks nice as program. But my opinion about it is that you are making money on someone elses idea(s). That is maybe why the law about intellectual ownership is so in discussion. (In US & Europe). Just wondering how many bills that will pay. I suggest you get a job. Just my 2 cents. @Herby: Nice job dude. What if you charged per reg-file ;) For people that want ordinairy "no named" icons, I found this on my harddisk. Download here + attached here too, in case :wacko: Just double click the .reg-file for your OS, then copy the .cmd to your desktop and drag the icon(s) on to it. Then just copy the .cmd-file back to a safe place :cool: I don't know who to give credits for, cause I can not remember where I got it. Sorry 'bout that.

Herby Posted April 26, 2005 Author Share Posted April 26, 2005 @ Amadeke: Thanks! :) I have some great news: I received a PM from Tbhoc: Thank you for reminding this to me , i ve totally forgot it. I believe in about 10 days I'll start working on it ( I have exams and a GCE project to finish :p ) It will be free and probably open source !

Here's a new Icon for Adobe Photoshop CS2: 585841344[/snapback] Thanks for looking into this, I have been able to creat the Virtual Daemon Manager icon by editing an existing one and that was easy, but what i wanted to know is if its possible to create it so that you can drag and drop cd images onto the icon, and here are the switches. Maybe if drag and drop does not work, then to have the default action to browse for CD image. Command Line Switces -lock used to lock the DLL operation to be sure no unauthorized program can load daemon.dll and use its functions. Used mainly in autostart (if 'Autolock' option is enabled), but can be used in command line too. Unlocking can be done from Virtual DAEMON manager or other GUI that is currently running. Note that locking has no effect on DAEMON Manager itself or other programs which have been 'authorized' by us to use the DLL. -noicon this option is used to prevent DAEMON Tools from creating a taskbar icon. It has no effect if DAEMON manager is already running or you specified another command (except 'lock') in the command line! DAEMON manager automatically exits after command is executed and does not create taskbar icon. -mount allows mounting images from command line (or shortcut). Syntax is: -mount <n>,<path> where 'n' means DVD-ROM device number ('0' - '3' allowed) and 'path' is the full path to the image file. Example: daemon.exe -mount 0,"c:\My Images\nameofimage.cue". Do not forget to set the path in quotes if it contains spaces! -unmount allows unmounting images from command line. Syntax is: -unmount <n> where 'n' means DVD-ROM device number ('0' - '3' allowed) -safedisc ? allows turning Safedisc emulation on/off from command line. '-safedisc on' enables emulation, '-safedisc off' disables it -securom ? allows turning Securom emulation on/off from command line. '-securom on' enables emulation, '-securom off' disables it -laserlock ? allows turning Laserlock emulation on/off from command line. '-laserlok on' enables emulation, '-laserlok off' disables it. -rmps ? allows turning RMPS emulation on/off from command line. '-rmps on' enables emulation, '-rmps off' disables it.

CrisCr0ss Posted May 1, 2005 Share Posted May 1, 2005 ADVIcons is cool, a good feature may possibly be Make it Capable of Drag and Drop so that we can drag it to *Y'z Dock* Another cool feature would be the ability to make folders like that. (similar to kkmenu) But kkmenu is too hardd to understand Lastly its shareware which imo is yucky. it should be donateware. If they like it and think its worth it you will be donated.

squek Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 There's someone (I think he's italian) whoa shares these reg but he has modified the initial credits removing "by Herby" and adding "by AND1Games"... I think he has taken the regs I've translated into italian from one of the site where I've posted them, because I've added a certain path for the icons, not the one by default for each program as in the original by Herby, and this modified path is in "his" regs. On emule a member of an italian forum has find a photoshop CS 2 reg which is exactly the same posted here by Herby and that isn't on the set I've translated but uses the alternative path as the ones I've modded... I've not removed Herby's reference from the regs I've posted (on that ones you can read "Original idea by Herby, modded and translated by Squek"), but this guy is making something really unfair. :crazy: P.S.: sorry for my english... :blush: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
