I have another question, whish it can be answered. :unsure:

I found that in FlyakiteOSX, several file format have been associated with external icon. For instance, png, jpg, gif and bmp, these icons are in the folder 'windows\flyakiteoOSX\fileicons\'. I just want to know how can it be done? Can i do it manually? :shiftyninja: Coz I want to associate my own icons for the different formats without modify the original exe file.. Thank you... :wacko:

I installed V2 for an hour, the uninstalled it because it was really slow.

What you smoking fella? Flyakite doesn't install any software that runs in the background, or anything else sinister. All it does is to alter the graphics (replaces existing files with files that have had their graphics modified.)

I been running it since v 1.0 and still think it's the best thing since sliced guinness!!

Well I spoke to him recently and he said that he's not too sure. Most of it is complete but he won't release something that has bugs. As soon as I have any idea of when it will be released i'll be sure to post her:D:D

Haha, I'm working on it. Like Kitch said, I am nearly done. The installer sits at a light 28mb, only 2.2mb larger than v2, which is not bad considering how much has been added AND I have integrated the SE (Special Edition) features with the smaller shell32.dll into v3, so there will only be one installer now.

I'm getting there, don't worry everyone. It will be soon.

flyakite nice! i don't know if its my eyes but i think version 2 and 3 is almost the same with a few changes in settings and the theme. It still dont have the "file edit" in the taskbar but i don't use it anyways so its ok. Hope you can post the new boot screen and log in screen, and maybe if it comes with firefox 1.5 theme a new power dvd and windows media player skin. i don't think theres a picasa 2.0 skin out there yet so im assumiing you remove it.

the good thing is if your comp has only 256 mb of mem it will still run as seen on flyakite sceenies hehe. Can't wait for the final version.

My only complaint is the horrible tool bars. They're so 10.1. You should try doing something with those. :D

They're not 10.1. They're Safari, and they are Safari for a reason. The way Mac toolbars work, the previous and next buttons are right next to each other. On XP this is not possible, so I went with the Safari toolbar set that Steve Grenier made up. It is very complete and it works well.

Then you are too concerned with aesthetics. You have to remember, FlyakiteOSX is made to look like OS X. OS X doesn't drastically change looks too often, so you need to look "beyond" visual aspects. LOTS has changed, not only internally but externaly. As for skins, I am NOT a skinner, and have stated this before. If someone wants an updated skin they either need to contact the author or make one themselves, lol. Picasa 2.0 is not skinnable from what I've seen so far. The way the system stores resources is entirely different. They used to be in some folder as raw image files, now they are embedded in a file and I have not figured out how to read or extract them yet.
