[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

I :heart: Tango. Someone should put together a Tango icon set for iPhone/iPod Touch :)

Someone might as well put a Tango set Windows Mobile 6.1/TouchFLO 3D/Symbian/Sony Ericsson/PSP/Nintendo DS and a host of other devices to complete the set. While they're at it, might as well create a GNOME set as well to make it really complete :laugh: !

I'm just joking by the way but if anyone wants to take up the call, be my guest and don't let my idiotic rambling stop you :p !

H*** yes. I've been ogling iPod Touches for a while now, but haven't really had the cash... I think you just cinched it for me :D

I love my iPod and the Tango icons do look rather dashing on it...I must say. However now that I've gotten a taste of what a MID [Mobile Internet Device] can do. I've been wanting more. What I'm currently looking at getting is a Nokia N810. Maybe it will be a X-mas gift to myself.

Hey, did somebody ask for a PSP theme?

Because I NOW HAVE ONE for you guys, months after I disappeared without bringing forth results.

AND BEHOLD, IT WAS GOOD.

Looks nice, but it only makes me wish I had a PSP to try it out :laugh: . A question though, is there anyone working on a Thunderbird GNOME theme? It's the only app on my desktop which isn't GNOME and considering that I've just got my OWA to work with it, it's one of my most used software.

Its been a while since I updated anything here, but I have been slowly working on a bunch of different Tango-ified icons. They're on my deviantArt page, but the one I really wanted to mention is the weather pack I worked on:

Some people here might like this, just wanted to update everyone. Nice job on the iPod/iPhone mod too!

Hi. I downloaded the Tango Pather 2600 8.06 on DeviantART. But after I install it and I log in, all the icons are replaced, but I can't get into some programs like none of the browsers I have on my computer (FF, Chrome, IE7). And when I tried to uninstall it, it the uninstaller wouldn't show. So I had to go into safe mode to do it. I like the patcher, just I can't live without FireFox. :) Help would be appreciated.

Sorry for the doublepost... I have a request of sorts...

Could someone please do the following?

I could really use some composite icons, like this one:

places-user-docs.png

These are the ones I had in mind:

drive-harddisk.png + emblem-windows.png / package-x-generic.png

folder.png + applications-internet.png / media-optical.png / system-users.png

So if someone has the source .svg-s and some free time, I'd be really grateful :)

Here are the icons from vert's shell patcher in the attachment.

Hey people. I am glad that this treat is still alive. I've been doing some own Tango job in my free time...skining some apps and replacing even more XP icons with Tango. I do not have the latest patcher installed as I was doing my own work on the dlls.

You can take a look at www.8666.deviantart.com

-Tango Folders

-Skin for 1by1 MP3 Player

-Skin for XnView

I do not know an easy way to make a patcher (maybe not even having time) but at least I want to share this screen shot with you:

There is more... but I can not show it all. I want to replace every original XP icon.those that are not replacable..I edited the dialog boxes :) I am using XP SP2 so ....I do not know..uploading DLL will be illegal huh?

It's been a while since this thread is active. That said, anyone know of a good Gnome 7-Zip theme, I had one before but I lost it. I'm using this icon for the moment which is really good, just wish it had a nice theme to it.

Scirwode

Thanks for the XnView skin. I somehow missed that on dA.

BTW: What visual style are you using in your screenshots? Looks like Windows Classic to me, but some elements do not have the 'classic' look IMHO.

It's classic with modified shellstyle.dll

Other fonts and colors (Themes service off)

Let me list the programs that I run with Tango (NO Gnome at all):

-FireFox2, 3 - I modified the themes even more (some non tango icons where tweaked)

-DownThemAll for FF

-Thunderbird

-XnView

-SmPlayer (can not change the main icon only)

-WinRAR

-uTorrent

-7-ZIP

-OpenOffice 3

-InfraRecorder (does not work properly with my recorder especially the verify thing)

-Notepad++ (my own mod of the skin)

-FoxiReader (work in progress, no support alpha channel in toolbars so I build them against my XP background color to keep the shadows in proper form)

-FileZilla

-1by1 MP3 Player

Would like GIMP and InkScape in Tango not Gnome

Also XYExplorer (not possible to skin now)

and a Tango friendly workable CD Burner!

-Is it possible to remove the border around thumbnails (without running any theme manager)..maybe changing few bytes in explorer.exe? I know it is controled bu Button Face color.

-I modify (make complete) most of the Tango skins that I find onlline and I only use Portable software (Not messing in the registry and introducing their own file types/mime icons)

Please do not quote this post (or at least the url), as I will change the url / image sooner or later (privacy stuff)

I do not have overlays. Suggestions?

How Tango is this?

I plan to change the sun in the weather, Skype and Yahoo have stronger outline...this is all raster design..maybe I should start all over in vector? I plan to make Windows classic skin too...or maybe go back to classic list..I removed the fingerprint just because in is not Tango :)

It will be available on the Miranda site..around beginning of March '09

    • Uhm, that's every business ever, though. It doesn't matter if a bajillion users are using it. As long as it's not making bank, it's probably headed for the graveyard.
    • Yeah Patchou was an active member here, good ol' times indeed.
    • Samsung is the new Google... they don't care if millions of people are using it.
    • Still no word on Tides of Annihilation...... so weird that it wasn't shown at the big Game Fest. Guess I'll put it in the bin like Judas and Squadron 42.
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions by David Uzondu Samsung has announced that it is shutting down Samsung Max, its VPN service used by more than 50 million people, effective today. Samsung Max VPN, if you don't know, was an Android app born on February 23, 2018, out of the ashes of Opera Max, a very popular data-saving VPN that Opera had discontinued the previous year. Samsung bought the discontinued service, rebranded it, and added a native Samsung UI to fit the Galaxy ecosystem. The app could do things like compress images, help you manage background data on a per-app basis, reduce video data consumption, shrink music files, optimize webpages, block advertisement trackers in incognito mode, and encrypt your internet traffic on public Wi-Fi networks. Image via SammyGuru If you open the app now, you'd be greeted by a shutdown banner warning that all VPN, data saving, and privacy services stopped functioning on June 15, 2026. The creators failed to provide a reason for the shutdown, instead publishing a farewell note that read: "Thank you for being with us over the years. Your support and activity truly meant a lot to us and helped shape this app into what it became." This same message appears on the Google Play Store listing for the app as well. Max VPN is the latest service from Samsung to join the list of discontinued applications from the company. Just two months ago, the Korean tech giant announced that it is completely shutting down Samsung Messages, forcing millions of users to migrate to Google Messages by next month. The only devices that the shutdown won't affect are older smartphones running Android 11 or lower. Some of the features of Google Messages that Samsung hopes will entice users include AI-powered scam detection to block suspicious links, integrated Gemini AI tools to generate quick replies, custom chat bubbles, and universal RCS compatibility for sharing high-quality media with iOS users. The platform also offers seamless syncing across tablets and smartwatches. In addition to that, users gain access to message scheduling, smart classification, and automated category sorting.
