For Total Commander

https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...amp;p=587993616<- that's the only thing that doesn't point to my now-defunct website. You're pretty much on your own for figuring out how it works, though.

I realize that Firefox 3 will probably be released shortly, and that people will start releasing themes, tango included. BUT, I've always preferred to do things myself, instead of having to download some other component. If you want to only change the various icons in Firefox, while still using the default theme, I have found the way!

I imagine the directory structure of Firefox 3 will be the same as Minefield. If it turns out that it's not, I'll come edit this post.

-------------------------------------------

Navigate to C:\Program Files\Minefield\chrome, copy the file classic.jar and go paste it in some other folder so you can play with it. Rename it to classic.zip and extract it. Inside this new folder, you will find a folder named skin, and 2 images (icon.png and preview.png - you see these in the theme preview box).

All of the images that you want to edit are in \skin\classic\browser, the most important ones are Toolbar-small.png and Toolbar.png because those are the main toolbar images that you will be seeing most often. Open up those images and edit them however you want. I replaced them with the appropriate Tango icons, making sure to alter a bit for state changes (normal, hover, dead, pressed).

NOTE: Vista toolbar images are in \skin\classic\aero\browser!

When you are done editing images, it's now time to repack them.

Go back to your main theme folder and highlight the skin directory, and those 2 .png images, and then add them to a new .zip archive. You MUST preserve the directory sctucture! When you go to open your .zip, you should only see the skin directory and the 2 images, NOT the entire theme folder.

Rename the .zip into classic.jar. A confirmation dialogue will pop up asking whether you really want to change the file extension, click YES.

Close Firefox and go back to C:\Program Files\Minefield\chrome and replace the classic.jar in there with your new one. You may want to keep a safe copy of the original somewhere.

Keep in mind that if you do an update, that your edited classic.jar might get reverted to the original, so you'll have to replace it again.

Below are my toolbar images for you to copy.

So I went ahead and created a couple new Tango icons for my own needs, and I figure some others might get some use from this as well. These are my first icons of any type, much less for the Tango project, so some critique would be useful if it is warrented. All icons are 48x48, ICO and SVG versions are available too.

Disclaimer: Some icons are modified versions of existing ones. I know this might not be kosher, but...it worked. SweepRAM, CCleaner, and to a small extent the Database icon fall into this category, so original credits still go to their authors.

Can also find them on my DeviantArt: http://darkobra.deviantart.com/

Maybe this question has been answered a lot of times... but 185 pages are too much reading: This patch changes ONLY the icons and some resources? Because I like the icons, but also my own visual style and I want to keep it.

Thanks in advance,

i downloaded this and it seemed way too intense. i kept getting spyware detection and loading times for the start bar were horrendous. the icons must be graphically intensive. it took my 1 year old laptop 30 seconds to load the control panel icons from the start menu. :(

SP3 is really near, are we going to have some update for it?
Probably - nothing too fancy, just new comctl32.dll locations, and swaps for some of those nasty icons I drew way back in the day (totem for wimp, and the winamp icon somebody found earlier in the thread for my less awesome doodling).

I noticed that the Thunderbird icon is not available in STTP. I know I could simply reshack it but is there any chance you can put it in? I am however just asking and if you feel it's not necessary, I understand.

    • 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.
    • My issue is I can't access the forum on mobile if the site is set to Desktop mode on Vivaldi because it can't complete the Cloud flare am I a bot check! I know this is a Vivaldi issues as it has started happening on all cloud flare check sites, it's so annoying, I've reported it but no fix yet.
