[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

may I suggest a bit other description instead of one simple letter:

ISO - instead of [ i ] put a tango cd image

and for rest (or all of them) put small brown (more brownish than box color) text "rar"/"zip"/... on the front side of the box

Not having an "icon for Acrobat itself" is intentional, at least on my part - I've got sort of a hunch, or maybe a gut instinct, or maybe I read it somewhere (I honestly can't remember which, at the moment.) that applications whose sole purpose is to handle one type of file should use the icon for that type of file.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. Acrobat's application icon differs from the icon used to identify PDF files... the icon I provided is meant to replace Acrobat's application icon, not the PDF document icon. Same goes for RealPlayer, I guess.

I dunno. If I'm crazy and I shouldn't have wasted my time on those, then my apologies to the community. Just trying to cover everything. :cry:

I like them...Have you thought about making an Adobe Photoshop Tango icon? You seem to be good at Adobe app icons heh. I don't use either Acrobat or Realplayer but great job on both of them!!

So, as a Total Commander and Tangerine lover, I thought I'd create a file icon set for said application. It's a complete set (16px), but no drive bar seeing as the existing package has everything needed.

For installation, just follow the instructions by following the "existing package" link.

Do the instructions for the "existing package" as it is so named actually work? A few people reported them not being accurate or usuable, but I couldn't be arsed to get a shareware copy of the program to verify/correct one way or the other, and pretty much forgot about it.
Any way I could get a Tango icon for this? (It's in the Control Panel, in case you're wondering)
There's an icon in Tango Art-Libre that's just waiting for that, I think. You're completely on your own in figuring out what file and resource ID it is (unless, of course, you buy me a tablet PC :p). Take a look at your .CPLs in system32, and possibly light up the Shell Object Editor if it's not located in one of them. Edited by vertigosity

I've been asked to make a Black Tango Icon theme (heh, yeah right) or at least make a Firefox theme with modified 'black' Tango icons. Now, my question is if this is allowed by the Tango guidelines. The Tango icons can't be modified can they?

I wouldn't mind doing the theme but I didn't know if it'd even be right tweaking all the icons and making them black :p

"Black" ?! Or dark grey like Gnome ?

I know that I have the right to modify, distribute, and basically do anything I'd like "legally" under the license but I didn't know if the Tango Guidelines talk against the modification of the icons that could possibly take away from the universal and easy to understand look.

Yes, Lokheed has talent! Now he's on a Mac so hopefully he can make those look great. Oh, and the request was for a black Tango icon theme for Firefox. Not that I have any talent in icon making :p

bvc has already made a few alternative colour versions like the green mod in this pic

from http://gnomethemes.org/?p=52

Theres also pink, purple, and a monochrome (black..ish) version there. I reckon the green folders look sweet, would love them on XP :whistle:

Hmmm, okay well that settles it. I still don't know if I'll do a black tango Firefox theme because I'm lazy and don't want to butcher anything but we'll see. Thanks!

I'm voting that you buy him a tablet PC. :woot:

Nah, I'm under the impression it's more like, "now he's on a Mac, so he's out of the game." A de-saturated and "darker" Tango icon theme probably wouldn't be that hard to do at least the icon parts of; I'm just a bit leery of making another fork of the alphabmps right now; I've already got 4 (I've been working on porting Industrial and Gnome-icon-theme2).

The guidelines actually explicitly encourage this sort of thing (Tangerine and SLED10 Industrial, anyone?), I'm sure. They just like to make sure that you use the same palette, some of the same shapes and metaphors, and some of the same visual cues, so that you won't sit down and think "Wow, I don't know what any of these things do! And wow, they really don't fit in with one another, what a mismatched hodgepodge! OMG look at the Windows 95 icons in the font dialog!"

Heck, if there are any Tablet PCs with current-gen mid-range graphics and a Core (2) Duo, it could replace my desktop. Too bad such a beast would only come with Intel Integrated, and would still cost $2500 :p Edited by vertigosity

Holy Cow :doctor:

Vertigosity, how about a green-grey version shellpatcher (in the future) :woot:

This is so sexy, as sexy as tangorine and tango :blush:

I think it would be in our best interest to completely finish THIS pack first, before moving onto other things. So yes, the future.

I actually do like the green folders-It's very earthy :p

Mine was only $1500-ish (see specs in sig :D )

    • BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta by Razvan Serea When your computer is getting full, BleachBit quickly frees disk space. When your information is only your business, BleachBit guards your privacy. With BleachBit you can free cache, delete cookies, clear Internet history, shred temporary files, delete logs, and discard junk you didn't know was there. Designed for Linux and Windows systems, it wipes clean thousands of applications including Firefox, Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Opera, Safari, and more. Beyond simply deleting files, BleachBit includes advanced features such as shredding files to prevent recovery, wiping free disk space to hide traces of files deleted by other applications, and vacuuming Firefox to make it faster. Better than free, BleachBit is open source. BleachBit has many useful features: Delete your private files so completely that "even God can't read them" according to South Carolina Representative Trey Gowdy. Simple operation: read the descriptions, check the boxes you want, click preview, and click delete. Multi-platform: Linux and Windows Free of charge and no money trail Free to share, learn, and modify (open source) No adware, spyware, malware, browser toolbars, or "value-added software" Translated to 64 languages besides American English Shred files to hide their contents and prevent data recovery Shred any file (such as a spreadsheet on your desktop) Overwrite free disk space to hide previously deleted files Portable app for Windows: run without installation Command line interface for scripting and automation CleanerML allows anyone to write a new cleaner using XML Automatically import and update winapp2.ini cleaner files (a separate download) giving Windows users access to 2500+ additional cleaners Frequent software updates with new features Going beyond standard deletion of files, BleachBit has several advanced cleaners: Clear the memory and swap on Linux Delete broken shortcuts on Linux Delete the Firefox URL history without deleting the whole file—with optional shredding Delete Linux localizations: delete languages you don't use. More powerful than localepurge and available on more Linux distributions. Clean APT for Debian, Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, and Linux Mint Find widely-scattered junk such as Thumbs.db and .DS_Store files. Execute yum clean for CentOS, Fedora, and Red Hat to remove cached package data Delete Windows registry keys—often where MRU (most recently used) lists are stored Delete the OpenOffice.org recent documents list without deleting the whole Common.xcu file Overwrite free disk space to hide previously files Vacuum Firefox, Google Chrome, Liferea, Thunderbird, and Yum databases: shrink files without removing data to save space and improve speed Surgically remove private information from .ini and JSON configuration files and SQLite3 databases without deleting the whole file Overwrite data in SQLite3 before deleting it to prevent recovery (optional) BleachBit 6.0.1 Beta release notes: BleachBit 6.0.1 beta is now available for testing. This maintenance-focused release includes bug fixes, updated translations, and a range of safe enhancements. This release fixes a Windows security issue that could allow arbitrary file deletion during privileged cleaning (reported by Zeze with TeamT5). It also adds new cleaners (including a DNS cache cleaner, Claude Code, and Visual Studio Code forks), support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles, new deep scan options for developer directories like node_modules and venv, and safer, faster file shredding. All Platforms Added cleaners for Claude Code, DNS cache, and many Visual Studio Code forks. Added support for multiple Chrome and Edge profiles. Chrome can now clean downloaded AI models. Deep Scan can optionally remove venv, __pycache__, node_modules, and .angular directories. Deep Scan is faster by skipping directories on the keep list. File shredding is safer, faster, and leaves fewer recoverable traces. Improved handling of cookies, symlinks, Unicode filenames, external processes, and configuration files. Improved Expert Mode warnings and long warning dialogs. Fixed crashes related to cleaner detection, invalid Unicode, and malformed cleaner data. Clipboard is now cleared automatically after shredding files via paste operations. Linux Added AppImage support. Added cleaners for Visual Studio Code, Codeium, Librewolf (.deb), Transmission (Flatpak), and Profanity. Improved Linux trash detection, including Snap-installed applications and mounted drives. Fixed Wayland root CLI issues and several Snap-related problems. Improved package dependencies, AppStream metadata, and desktop file handling. Fixed startup crashes when Python Requests is unavailable. Windows Fixed a security vulnerability that could allow arbitrary file deletion when cleaning with elevated privileges. Added %WindowsSystem% variable support. Improved clipboard clearing using native Windows APIs. Improved installer experience on unsupported Windows versions. Reduced installer size and improved application robustness. Fixed Unicode handling, filename anonymization, Git revision reporting, and splash screen stability.

    • DriversCloud 12.1.6 by Razvan Serea With DriversCloud (formerly My-Config.com), you can explore your computer easily, safely and free. The application quickly scans your PC and identifies the hardware and software components. DriversCloud then establishes a list of the different drivers compatible with your OS and hardware. Download the drivers needed for the proper functioning of your computer. To detect your drivers, DriversCloud also displays a detailed summary of your hardware and software configuration, analyzes your BSOD, monitors in real-time your PC voltages and temperatures and lets you share your configuration online. Once the hardware components have been detected, you will be able to obtain with just a few clicks the latest drivers corresponding to the identified hardware. You can record your configuration on the site for free, and can get the corresponding URL to post the configuration to technical forums, e-mail and social networks. You can also download the detection result (the configuration) as a PDF file. To protect the user's privacy and data confidentiality, a 4-level confidentiality system was created that filters the XML marks and gives control to the user. The default level can be modified in the preferences. Using the maximum level will prevent the user from publishing his configuration and generating a corresponding PDF file. In non-connected mode, each XML configuration is stored on the server for one day (for practical reasons). However, you are given the opportunity to manually delete it. Created in 2004, and continually improved, My-Config.com has established itself on the web as a free service to PC users running Windows and Linux operating systems. The service is designed to work with the most common Internet browsers (Edge, Firefox, Chrome, Safari).
