Longhorn Icons Set v1.1 FINAL

40 real icons ripped from Longhorn build 4074

Since Microsoft released SP2 it's gonna be pretty much all hands on deck for Longhorn. With newer builds there will come new icons so I thought I would make this a final and release another LIS when the next build it leaked.

The Longhorn Icons Set (LIS) first began with 21 icons on the 25th of July 2004. In just over a month, it had almost doubled in amount of icons and had been downloaded 5,500+ times (and still counting!). It is the world's only Longhorn 4074 icons set.

Icons:

All icons come in 48x48 size; many come with 48x48 and 32x32 sizes; most come with 48x48 and 32x32 and 16x16 sizes; some come with 48x48 and 32x32 and 24x24 and 16x16 sizes; a couple come with 128x128 sizes.

The Longhorn Icons Set comes with the following Longhorn icons:

- My Computer

- Control Panel

lhrnicons-a.jpgDOWNLOAD:bDue to copyright violation, the LIS was removed from deviantART. And due to the risk of Microsoft taking legal action will I no longer distribute the LIS or any possible future versions. If you would like to obtain the LIS still, try PMing one of the members who posted in this topic who downloaded the LIS and kindly ask them if they could send you a cop:):) i>

Size: 916kb

File format: icons in .ico (standard windows icon), but package in .rar - you will need WinRAR.Disclaimer:b>

If you would like to include the Longhorn Icons set with any of your work (eg. visual styles), please feel free to. However, if you do this you must include the rar file un-altered with original read me, screenshot and dll. Also if you choose to do this, please PM me and let me know what it's being included wit:):)

Why are some 128x128? I mean, I love them - but why not all? Curious .. :whistle:

If I could they would all have 128x128 sizes, but like I said they are ripped from Longhorn so 128x128 for most of them mustn't exsist. :|

edit: just checked deviantART - 200+ downloads today alone! :woot: good job guys (Y)

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      By Kravex · Posted

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      By +Edouard · Posted

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
