[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

I bet that's a bitmap. You'll probably need to crop/assemble a smaller image by shifting around the pieces of the one you're already using, or pieces of the normal system button widget, and then laying on a smaller (16x16?) recolored Ubuntu logo.

stylebuilder allows to change image position (img for start button), so its even easier to do

are there any updates planned vergo?

Sometime in September. Probably on Patch Tuesday again, because that makes me giggle a little. I don't really have anything amazing yet, I'm just letting it roll along, collecting up little stuff, so it might be later in Sep.

Well it looks like Mozilla has been busy with the updating of the Bon Echo nightlies (the almost-ready-for-beta-but-not-quite builds) and the visual refresh looks quite nice :). However it was to Mac OS X for me so I tweaked it around a lot and came up with an updated Tango skin. Basically, it's as much Tango-ized as possible with the addition of the neat little go and search buttons, tab bar, and nifty forward and back drop down images. If anyone is interested it's at dA

On another note, I don't know if you know this, vertigosity, but Andreas Nilsson of the Tango Project has royally mispelt your name in a cool mention of the Patcher. You're famous!!!! Oh and I third or fourth the desicion to work on skinning up the little icons in the Common tasks place like bobp is talking about. Also, any change to patch Bon Echo with the default Internet icon or something like Firefox. Just in case it's installed :p

Cheers!

vertigosity :

Where did you find the "k3b / burning icon" used in the batch patcher +1 release? I cannot find it in the K3B source, but I can find lots of different icons.

Also, does anyone want a tango3b DVDShrink toolbar? (this one won't work, jsut a preview to see if anyone cares)

  • Maybe Suicide is actually AndreasN's secret alter-ego? He can't spell vertigosity either; maybe it's time to change my name to Virge or Virgo, even though I was a Verite and later Voodoo man, and a Cancer, with normal Volvo steel wheels :p
  • Common Tasks are a bullet point for the next revision. Of course, I'm going completely Rambo on that, since I think the official Tango position on them is "having icons for that sort of thing would just introduce visual noise, and we know everybody uses cp and mv anyways." I doubt I'll go the "Tangoize the XP icon" approach, but +1 on lining up the pixels, BobP :yes:
  • There's not actually a whole lot in Lokheed's tarball-of-chaos I don't already have, and what is unique in it doesn't have SVG, so it's not quite as useful as I'd like. His PDF icon is nifty, so I might trace that or otherwise try and fudge it. Those folder icons are from gnome-icon-theme2, which is really the other bullet point for September, and the thread historians will note I've been pretending to work on for the past three months :rofl: And if Lokheed thinks he can get away with redistributing Hylke's Fox and Bird icons, I'll stop pretending the MoFo people have their snipers on me.

Any chance for a tango mIRC icon? it looks soo out of place in the sys tray.. :/

If I recall correctly, mIRC uses CRC. The icons in the toolbar of the program cannot be changed without doing a CRC hex edit. I am not sure if that applies to just the main icon though.

I just mean the main program icon, that shows when you have mIRC minimized to/running in the systray, not the toolbar.

    • Hello, It would appear so, according to https://finance.yahoo.com/news/how-to-hide-your-home-on-google-maps-apple-maps-204146687.html. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky      
    • Hello, The Nvidia Founders Edition 3080 video card is approximately six years old, correct? Have you looked into whether replacement fans are available for it? Perhaps replacing those will improve cooling, especially when combined with cleaning the card's heatsink and replacing the thermal interface materials. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • Hello, While ~104 GB of space may seem generous (at least compared to other e-readers which have 8-32GB), I feel at this price point the device should have a Micro SDXC card slot for expansion, particularly if it allows audio books to be installed and played. I hope to see more reviews of 6" phone-sized e-readers on Neowin in the future. It will be interesting to see how they compare. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 by Razvan Serea Run programs in a sandbox to prevent malware from making permanent changes to your PC. Sandboxie allows you to run your browser, or any other program, so that all changes that result from the usage are kept in a sandbox environment, which can then be deleted later. Sandboxie is a sandbox-based isolation software for 32- and 64-bit Windows NT-based operating systems. It is being developed by David Xanatos since it became open source, before that it was developed by Sophos (which acquired it from Invincea, which acquired it earlier from the original author Ronen Tzur). It creates a sandbox-like isolated operating environment in which applications can be run or installed without permanently modifying the local or mapped drive. An isolated virtual environment allows controlled testing of untrusted programs and web surfing. Sandboxie is available in two flavors Plus and Classic. Both have the same core components, this means they have the same level of security and compatibility. What's different is the user interface the Plus build has a modern Qt based UI which supports all new features that have been added since the project went open source. The Classic build has the old no longer developed MFC based UI, hence it lacks support for modern features, these features can however still be used when manually configured in the Sandboxie.ini. Sandboxie Plus 1.17.8 / Classic 5.72.8 release notes: Added added DisableCustomTitleOpt=[process,][y|n] to allow [#] sandboxie title markers on custom-titlebar windows (Delphi VCL, Qt, Electron) that were previously skipped to prevent DWM repaint CPU loops #5387 Changed updated bundled ImDisk driver to 3.0.2 #5419 Fixed fix Suppress logs for expected non-user SIDs #5422 SbieSvc.exe: SBIE2218/2219 error when run program as administrator #5417 fixed explorer.exe crashes in Application Compartment when Huorong Security is installed #5423 Download: Sandboxie Plus (64-bit) | 23.5 MB (Open Source) Download: Sandboxie Classic (64-bit) | 3.0 MB Links: Sandboxie Website | GitHub | ARM64 | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • 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
