tokrachi Posted June 1, 2002 Author Share Posted June 1, 2002 the icons on the left you have circled are 16 colours..........very crap, so is the one down the bottom...........toolbars are 8 bit bmps.............have to use the old magic pink as the background. MMX Icons will look very ordinary as you will have to lose the shading and a heap of colour to make it work.........I amy be wrong, often I am :D Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/29238-mmx-installer-convert-your-system/page/4/#findComment-275216 Share on other sites More sharing options...

emtp563 Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 I'm interested. I already downloaded it, what did you change? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/29238-mmx-installer-convert-your-system/page/4/#findComment-278646 Share on other sites More sharing options...
emtp563 Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 oops, never mind. I'm using it now. Can you decrease the font size just a little bit? Also, can you reverse the start button mouse-over colors so it turns black when the mouse is over? Other than that, it's great :-) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/29238-mmx-installer-convert-your-system/page/4/#findComment-278691 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcb Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 the main point is that you enlarged the min/max/close buttons. they were way too small before. nice job Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/29238-mmx-installer-convert-your-system/page/4/#findComment-278857 Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrObvious2U Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 other than the icons on the right side of the start menu being way too large, i like this conversion product. but, how do i get my small icons back? i still have small icons on the left side. i want small ones on the right side, also. help me if u can. i'd sure appreciate any constructive comments. thanx in advance.

tokrachi Posted June 3, 2002 Author Share Posted June 3, 2002 kind of a trade off. If you make the icons on the right side of the start menu smaller, all your icons in explorer and the rest of the system will also be smaller. copy and paste from below and save with a .reg file extesion..............only what is between the lines. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_CURRENT_USERControl PanelDesktopWindowMetrics] "Shell Icon Size"="48" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You can substitute the "48" for "32" if you want.

Deemaa Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 tokrachi - excellent work, really love the mmx look. I have a problem with the fonts.

Deemaa Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 Thanks for reply - doesn't correct the problem. I've also noticed that when i "align icons to grid" they overlap each other - could it be something to do with icon size - if so how do i change it? Also is it possible to have no text under the icons?

emtp563 Posted June 3, 2002 Share Posted June 3, 2002 Is there a way to remove the text from the desktop icons? I like the large icons, but the text I don't care for. I thought I saw something related to this in Windows, but I can't find it now.

LOC Veteran Posted June 3, 2002 Veteran Share Posted June 3, 2002 Awesome job! Only thing I had to do was downsize the icon sizes to 48x48, 64x64 were just to big for me and my desktop. Otherwise it's great, I just have to get use to the new icons now:P since this is my first shell hack and all. Thanks for the hard work.
