Hi guys!

I released this on AeroXP AGES ago. It seems some people are still looking for them, though. SO, here they are, the AeroXP exclusive Vista Beta 1 PNG icons.

Those people who just copy the shell32.dll icons (which are old, by the way. Check the icons you SEE in vista and the icons in shell32... they're way old) can now be quiet. I've also made an IconPackager theme for them (so you can actually have 256x256 icons without a loss in quality!). The control panel icon is strangely enough only updated in ONE PART of vista B1.... but that part looks like a slip, so this is what MS are going to go for (though eventually we hope in XAML).

Here they are...

Vista PNGs in 256x256

Vista IconPackage

Of course, you can use AveIconifier to convert the PNGs to ICOs. If you use this in any tranformation pack or any of these resources in anything, please credit them to: Blackice@AeroXP

Other than that, have fun!

it wants .ip, .iptheme, or .theme

i tried both files included in your (.iconpackager & .icl) and neither of them worked...

they're the REAL ones from vista Beta 1. Don't tell me you've never seen them (well, some of them you prolly haven't, such as the new control panel icon...etc), in full 256x256 glory :)

oh, and just doubleclick the .iconpackager file and it should load. Does for me using latest version :shrug:

Iconpackager doesn't recognize them.

you need iconpackager 3.0 for this to work. Notice the file format is different (.iconpackager rather than .iptheme). That is why it will not work with anything less than version 3.0.

Could someone convert them into *.ico format or create an installer that is not going to have to require me to use a star dock program..... maybe something that will patch the files n replce em with these?

      Apple reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027 Good grief, Apple hasn't even released a first folding phone and the Apple faithful is already obsessing over the sequel? Seriously people, go out and touch grass... because this level of obsession is borderline stalkery/neurotic.

    • Brave Browser 1.91.178

      Brave Browser 1.91.178 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package. Brave Browser 1.91.178 changelog: Fixed certain extensions not working as expected. (#56271) Fixed inability to use Brave Sync in certain cases. (#55203) Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.196. (#56598) Download: Brave Browser 64-bit | 1.2 MB (Freeware) Download: Brave Browser 32-bit View: Brave Homepage | Offline Installers | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
