I started to work on the last half of the icons for the Miranda-IM pack :)

But I do not know yet how to give it to you guys cause it's a rip from Jim-Phelps his pack, and everyone knows :p

I really can't get into Miranda's groove (yeah, I know, it's infinitely customizable, but I just can't get... comfortable with it, I like Gaim out-of-the-box, really), so it's all yours. If you're worried, grab the source material directly from the Tango project and re-composite everything, then it's legit and properly CC-by-SAed, and plus, you'll have proper alpha channel stuff, which you wouldn't have if you were pulling stuff from his screenshots. Extra cookies if you use the Gnome-icon-theme2 protocol icons that weren't out when Mr. Phelps did his teaser shots, although that introduces ultar-ghey license incompatibility issues.

Edit: I just found his thread, and realized that at least some of his teaser material is in transparent PNGs. You're probably OK using that as long as give him attribution.

Alright, but it's gonna take a while for me to finish the icons and release them cause I'm going to remake a few with the official icons and I'm working on some other projects :)

And I'm not working on all of my projects everyday :p

So give me some time to finish the pack.

Your blue version is better than the other. The other is too bright for me. Yours is colorwise perfect. But the taskbar is broken for me (the background is black). Please fix this.

Or simply unlock taskbar, resize it a little bit, size it back to normal and lock again. That should fix it too.

    • Can't access the forum on mobile

      I really wonder if this has to do with the built in VPN or "private DNS" of browsers that trip up legal requirements like cookie consent and Cloudflare (to avoid all the botnet attacks we get). And BTW some botnets still manage to get past Cloudflare, we are constantly having to tweak it to block malicious traffic that ultimately cause a DDoS.

      CPPC states can also be messed around with in most UEFI settings but aren't as robust as the ones that the Windows Scheduler can provide! Make sure you look into what your motherboard also has before customizing for the Windows Scheduler.
