Nyet, that was the whole point of using XPero's installer bits.

Great release Vertigosity.

Superdoode, i'm having some problems with your ff skin (v0.8): every menu background is black and looks "shrinked". lovely skin nonetheless :p

Thanks for the update. Really following this project along quite closely and its getting pretty darn good.

I'm stupid. I tried adding menu icons and giving it Linux support but something went wrong somewhere (I think it was the code for the menu icons) and the themes borked on Windows. I removed the icons in the menus in hopes the black colors would go away but I can't test it for myself because my Windows partition is broken. I'm on linux for now. Like I said, I'm stupid :p

I have a different thread for this matter, though, so it doesn't clog up this topic and take away from the exciting November release of the patcher :p

Awesome piece of software. Thanks (Y)

Thanks for this great update! Especially the new gnome icons look very good.

One minor gripe though:

This icon isn't very suitable for mp3s. Maybe you can change that in the next release for a more suitable?

[markoajda]

I love Gnome icons. Are they available in 256x256 or 128x128 at least?

[DigitalE]

Thanks for the update.

And thanks for putting in the Tablet and Pen settings icon!

I've a problem with help and support center, it doesnt run but without any error, also wmp11. Windows XP SP2.

markoajda:

The icon package is available here

http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/desktop/2.1...2.16.0.1.tar.gz

It includes png files of size 16x16 thru to 48x48, but also .svgs of the icons

vertigosity, bobp, or anyone:

How do you convert .svg into .ico files properly? I mean, so they include both the small 16x16 icon and the larger icon too?

[Kraftman]

agt :

1) Create the native 48x48 PNG from the SVG (say edit-clear.svg to a 48x48 edit-clear.png) by using Inkscape or vertigosity's amazing shell integrations.

2) Get a hold of the 32x32, 22x22, and 16x16 PNGs from the Tango site. (http://tango.freedesktop.org/static/cvs/tango-icon-theme/32x32/actions/edit-clear.png)

(http://tango.freedesktop.org/static/cvs/tango-icon-theme/22x22/actions/edit-clear.png)

(http://tango.freedesktop.org/static/cvs/tango-icon-theme/16x16/actions/edit-clear.png)

3) Resize the 22x22 icon to 24x24, but do *not* resize the pixels or anything of the like. Just enlarge the size of the canvas.

4) Stuff all the icons together using @icon sushi.

And that's all it takes.

Oh yeah... I might have forgotten to mention, but I've got source packages now, with pre-rendered 128x128 and proper 32x32 for stuff that didn't have it but I used in the patcher. Git2 right now is still getting a lot of CVS checkins, so my source package / the patcher uses stuff that's a bit ahead of the current stable release.

This icon isn't very suitable for mp3s. Maybe you can change that in the next release for a more suitable?

I agree, and I'll think about it / watch for it. It might be a holdover from base Tango, which used to use a movie reel for categories/applications-multimedia icon, but swapped up the "movie reel" and the

"director's board" they'd been using as the generic video icon. I guess I'll watch to see if they do anything, otherwise I have to go renegade, since I agree with you (Jimmac might as well, who knows!). But I'm using a more generic "multimedia" icon for WMP, which uses the same icon for both audio and video, which is why you see that there.

I've a problem with help and support center, it doesnt run but without any error, also wmp11. Windows XP SP2.

Mmmh... sure it couldn't be anything else / does the problem still occur with the pack uninstalled? I haven't dipped too far into modifying that, and it still runs on all the systems I'd thought to try it on. If nothing else, I'd say to check your event log, but I can't think of any specific things to look for; just poke around, and maybe check the Services console to make sure the Help and Support Center service is running.
