I do have to say one other thing. The whole "naming the icons in funny ways" thing was really creative and funny for about 12 seconds. Then I realized how hard it is for me to figure out what I'm looking at. Now I get to spend a nice chunk of time renaming everything so that I won't kick myself later when trying to make a shell32.dll.

You're welcome...just a notice for others who are planning on getting the IP:

The Macro version has around 250 icons, 200ish file types, and around 50 extra icons just like my GANT2 pack so people can customize even further.

If you're not interested in doing that but you still like the icons, then you'll want the Micro pack. This one is half the size of Macro, still has 150 icons, and will do the trick for the average user. I hope that helps! :)

*And I thought I signed up for Neowin a few months back. I guess not, so here I am now.

IconPackager versions now available. Both Packaged by DoctorNick.

Simply GREAT.

But are these packs a replacement for GANT2 or what?

I've currently installed GANT2 on my system...

*** EDIT Sorry 4 asking... it's all written on the download page

Thanx Doctor again for your amazing work ;)

ive tried both and i have to say this

ADD THE 54x54 ICON size to the mix so it makes the icons look better at higher sizes aka 96x96 . if there not in the pak they look like this on the start menu

    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛 
    • At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.
