[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

Does anyone have an icon that I can use for my TV Card program? I mean the one for watching the TV.
I think SUSE's YAST2 set includes a TV icon. It's not scaled to all the necessary sizes though - if I've got a few minutes, I'll look into scaling up a proper Windows icon for it.
hi everyone .. i'm sorry for the question but.. i already installed the tango patcher, all the icons are displayed correctly but i can not replace them..

In fact i dont know how to do it.. :whistle: In the Tango Patcher website it's indicated that we most replace icons directly from the resources folder then run RELOADER

The resources themselves need to be in the Desktop\Override folder (but in a structure analagous to what they'd be in the patcher's Resources folder), and the reloader won't process them (I don't have a simple way of tracking what files would need to be reloaded for a specific resource update, and I'd need to make another category of reload anyways to do it.) - use the installer.

Hey a PNG would be fine too, I can scale it myself.

Here's ones for Emule and Skype. Emule's 16x16 size was a pain in the ass...I'm not completely satisfied with it and might come back to it but it'll do for now. ;)
I think shadow(not me :p) needs to be redone

As Thunderbird 2.0 is out now.......somebody is willing to update or can provide a Tango-theme for it?

Well, I'm about 75% done with one. I have it saved on some Gmail account. Anyway, I keep meaning to get it done but a bunch of stuff keeps happening away from the computer (a.k.a Life) and I havn't had the chance to sit down and focus on the skin. Um...I'll try and get back into it if possible. No promises. I'll keep a look out for a link to any skins that might pop up in the meantime.

I've got an installation image, and was planning on doing a full Vista evaluation with attempts to break the new Windows Resource Protection, but the current nVidia drivers don't bother ramping my GPU's fan speed down, so I just cut it short and went back to XP. By this summer, I'll have more time to play with it, and nVidia will hopefully have gotten their Vista driver act together.

Would anyone mind making me a vinyl record in 128x128, PNG, Please? Preferably with a white label (center sticker).

Wow! Vinyl Record. Old skool. I still have about 50 albums from the 50's and 60's (plus my awesome Sesame Street record) and play them constantly on my phonograph. :blush:

Vert, what exactly has changed in the icon structure in Vista. I know Vista still uses shell32 and any other Explorer database with images. I guess you'd have to work with the new vectoring and auto resizing and all. Oh, my nVidia acts just fine. You probably have a better card than mine though. I will wait patiently for any news on this :D

I don't know about better, but definitely rarer - I'm one of the few people silly enough to have bought an AGP 7800GS. Vista doesn't have Vector icons at all - I want to say that was one of the many things dropped when they reset the codebase. IIRC, it has high-res bitmaps, with PNG compression but still stored in ICO wrappers, and it's got a snazzy DirectX routinue to scale them moderately cleanly. That's not a problem - the latest version of @iconsushi handles it, and reshack will process them (it'll have an error trying to display Vista ICOs, but it can import and export them fine). But SFP and WinSXS have been merged together, and the sorts of things that worked to break or work around them in XP have been broken/changed/blocked off (after all, they could be used to replace system files). I'm tempted to say the easiest thing will be to make a PE image and run it in that, or boot in safe mode :wacko: - but enough people are replacing their themeui.dll and themesvcs.dll files that I at least have an idea of how to brute-force it. I'll start playing with it in a VM after final exams, it'll be a fun little challenge :)

Thanks guys for all the support. Just glad I can be contributing to the community! :D Will get to work on the MS Office icons tomorrow and to Tehmemories, I'll get that icon without the shadow out to you when I get a spare minute. :)

For those of you that use Limewire, here's a replacement icon for it. And to tehmemories, I've attached the record icon without a shadow.

@markoajda: I've already got a deviantArt account. Use it mainly for my program releases (laushung.deviantart.com) but I'll make an icon pack for all of the ones I've done so far and place it on there.
