[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

vertigosity used to maintain an application skin database (http://vertigosity.benpbrown.com/?page=apps) including icons, but... "Removed items not unique to this site; I don't have the time to maintain an "application skin database," let alone do it well."

If someone can suggest an easy-to-use CMS for fulfilling this purpose (application skin + icon database + instructions for patching), then I'd be happy to set one up. (i.e. tango.benpbrown.com/apps or equivalent)

Hi,

I'm having problems with patching Openoffice. This occurred both in case of Ooo 2.1 and 2.2.

It's installed in D:\Program Files\Openoffice.org. Maybe the non-default path is the reason for the problem?

Any ideas as to how to perform the icon patching?

it's not with your nonstandard path... it's broken. I didn't notice it because I didn't test it on a clean install in a VM, and I was running modded files installed by an intermediate build where things did work (I had it hard-coded it to the registry path for 2.1 for a bit), but yeah, it's broken, it's not the User's fault, and I'll try to find an excuse to put out a quickie update for April.
In PNG, ICO SVG perhaps?

For myself, PNGs and ICOs would be a definite. I've yet to crack open InkScape (being an old man stuck in my ways :p) but once I finally take the plunge, I'll be able to include SVGs as well.

Thanks a lot

by the way,

Anybody feeling like making an icon for the opensource MultiIM Miranda ?

Here's a quick one for Miranda in all of its Tango glory. :) The 32x32 pixel icon and down don't include the speech balloon. I felt it crowded the icon too much.

Even though I don't really have the right to talk Tango anymore, I love the icons I'm seeing and add my vote (for what it is worth) to the Wiki idea.

Also, is everyone aware that the entire GTK+ Tango set has been redone? The Tango Friday people got it all done in one night. They look interesting. A little more shine and polish and while I like some of the older icons better, these are nice as well. I guess now I have a reason for updating my Firefox skins. Anywho, I can't seem to find the new icons in the CVS or anywhere else. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough.

Yeah I also saw that, hopefully they can be included in the next update

no plans for tango-vista?
I've got no plans to buy a copy of Vista, or even to download it and slmgr the heck out of it.

They look neat, but I'm not entirely sure how I'd spin a subskin out of it. It's pretty likely that bits and pieces of them will show up here and there, though. Check [gnome-icon-theme-extras] for source (you'll have to backtrack to revision 83, they got deleted after being packaged up and sent off to the GTK people) - actually, check it out anyways, they've got a few mobile devices and gaming console related things up there as well, I'm sure somebody here would be interested. The Real Tango People have been doing a good job of tweaking and refining their style to get better consistency, realism, scalability, and of course, to make me feel totally inadequate every time I open Inkscape:pp

GIT-E "Gadgetango" stuff:
