Hello, everyone!

 

Alright so I decided I was going to revisit theming on Windows once more.  It's been fairly simple thus far on Linux, OS X,  and previous versions of Windows, however Windows 8.1.1 x64 is proving a bit more challenging. I just need some advice. 

 

I am using Stardock Icon Packager. It's the best mass icon theme switcher I've seen with tons of good community themes, and for 10$ I figured what the hay.

 

The icons that are giving me trouble are as follows:

 

1. The "user folder" icons (music, videos, pictures, etc) in the sidebar in File Explorer. They change just fine and render properly when in C:/Users/Name. All other sidebar icons render correctly.

2. My BDROM drive icon in This PC

3. Library Icons

4. The "user folder" icons in This PC (not in your user/home folder)

5. Skydrive Icon in User Folder - I may need someone with good PS skills to make me a semi custom icon to go with my theme. More info will be posted on that when I get home

6. explorer.exe when pinned to the task bar. May need some design advice/help on this too. 

 

 

I'm currently not home now, but I will post screens of the issues if necessary. I've seen some pretty slick decked out desktops here on Neowin before. You guys are the experts in this, teach me your ways!
