[Shell Patcher] Tango Icons for Windows


Recommended Posts

This would be magic on Windows 7... if only it got taken up again when vertigosity has time :( I've built up a nice collection of other tango/tangerine icons that can be added to the project!

I'm sure opening the project up to assistance with finding icons would make it much easier to do?

There doesn't need to be 4 icon sets maintained - maybe just the main 2 (Tango and Tangerine).

Do we have a group set up for all this to keep track of icons and themes people have contributed (and maybe even requested)? If not, we should! I know I'd be more than willing to lend a hand in developing icons for the project.

I never understood the appeal of these. They look like they were designed on Windows 95 or something. Who would want icons that look like they were colored from a paint program that can't even handle millions of colors?

Personally, I think Tango icons are better designed than some of the "professional" ones. The charm's in its simplicity and usability. Plus, I kind of like how they don't use a huge, unruly palette. It makes for a consistent look that brings everything together. :-)

So does the vista version work for 7?

For a definitive answer, yes, it does work with Windows 7 somewhat.

I'm running Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit version, and while it patches some of the icons, there's a few problems. I've patched mine and recieved an odd error, "Cannot create file if file already exists". But it still patches the icons reguardless.

I will post a picture later as an example.

I noticed that the icons next to the adress bar aren't changed... Is this just an issue with my config?

No offense but those are some very ugly icons people.

no offence, but you can keep your useless opinion and 'perfect' sence of beautiness inside

Yeah, to fix that, you'd have to add the path for that latest comctl32.dll to the NSIS script (well, several of them, actually) and recompile. If there's a guy maintaining a variant... great. I stopped pretending "I'll have time to get back to STTP someday!" a looong time ago :/

And yeah, that's one of those questions that's been answered to death many times over the past 100 pages...

    • 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.
