Hey everyone, I just exported 223 new Vista icons from the Beta 1 Release!

I have put them into 2 ZIP Packages.

The first package contains new XP Style icons to what I *THINK* to be new icons for Vista. I say check them all, even if they are not new to Vista, you may have not seen them before!

The second package contains new Vista Style icons, this package is very neat! There is a folder in there called "SHELL32", these icons are exported from the SHELL32.DLL File and put in a seperate folder as they are the main icons, and what most of you are probably looking for. I am an icon freak though so I exported all I could find from every file in the System32 folder!

I reccomend you download both and view all of them! There is some really neat ones in there!

ZIP Package #1: (466KB)

ZIP Package #2: (10.1MB)

IconPackager Pack

I've done a quick package which is located here:

http://www.en-force.net/downloads/VistaPack.zip

Feel free to edit em' all up and replace ones I may have missed, I did it quite quickly as I have to get ready for the nite out'

Tomorrow I'll go through other files and such where some icons might be if anyone doesn't do it by then.

Ksaads' I.P. Pack based on the ripped icons:

I personally reccomend' Ksaads' release, it seems more complete than mine!

Enjoy!

The downloads should be fast too, I put it on my quickest serv. (I DLed/ at 600KB/s on 5Mpbs)

-----------------

If there is any display problems, let me know! I've tested many of them and exported them all the same, so all resolutions/colours should work. (256x256* > 16x16) (2bit colour* > WinXP Colour)

* If applicable.

edit

Is there a new Regedit.exe icon? That would be nice to have.

Is there a reason why MS never updates all of their icons?? I mean at least update some of the ancient ones.? These new ones are decent but I just don't feel like it's enough for such a huge release like Vista.

EDIT: Thanks for the upload though.

The Start menu, too, has changed little since 5048 and features the same odd mix of Windows Vista and XP icons (Figure); Windows Client Group Director Neil Charney told me recently not to fear, that all of the icons throughout Vista would be upgraded to be big, high-resolution, and beautiful.

I hope they are going to change old win95 icons.

    • Depends on what you need. Might be a bit clearer on what you plan to do with it. Sort of a waste if you get the newest and greatest, but don't know how to use it.

    • Ah. La Fontana De Incontinentia ! Bella ! Bella !
    • Hi everyone, I'm planning a small network upgrade and was wondering how others prepare their networks for future needs. Do you usually invest in higher-speed switches and better cabling from the start, or do you upgrade only when necessary? I'd be interested in hearing what has worked well for you and any lessons you've learned over time. Thanks!
