just thinking for the sake of the developer and the progress, i fully understand that he can't fully focus on the project, so couldn't this project be made more openly available, and let others work on it?

I'd planned on releasing full source code as an option in the installer (2600 does, now) whenever I released the next big revision... but that hasn't really happened yet. Sourceforge won't accept it as a project, they don't accept Creative Commons licensed projects, and a large enough potion of STTP is CC-by-SA to make that a significant problem... a true central SVN repository for multiple people to access would be nice.

Dunno, maybe after I've got enough done for the Python-Powered Patcher (I do still spend a little time piddling at it, I'm planning on attacking it with full steam over my Christmas break), I'll try to make a project on it again. Since iconsets and OS definitions are used as pluggable modules, I wouldn't have to do any/much eulabending, and they might accept that as a project.

Would it be possible to use this app as a delivery method for other custom icon sets?

For example, compile a bunch of icons in a folder/file hierarchy that perfectly matches the one used by Tango patcher, then run tango patcher to have it install those icons?

It would be cool if it could. That would make icon themes in Windows as easy to use/create as icon themes in Linux (gnome in specific).

I have a few on my deviantART as well. Maybe people could start requesting what apps they would like to see skinned?

I need Virtual PC 2007 SP1..it is lot of technical work ... icons needed are 16x16 and already available....I get overworked lastmonths with doing stuff (Tango Jambo was hell of a work) and I need a rest or I will develop negative attitude for this Tangomania.

I use VirtualPC to run all non portable apps there ....programs that are hard to skin and I do not use them daily. Also virtual box app is a good idea. I will release in public my foxit reader and mime icons in return

/watch my deviant for tango stuff

Well well well, i've just got mad with tango. A shame the shell files are not windows 7. Some works, but now it says Windows Vista Tangofied, instead of Windows 7 Ultimate. :(

Oh, and i'm including a picture of witch applications wont work. I get and error each time i try to apply shell files.

    • 25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design

      Nah. They'll milk the current generation in terms of design - controllers, consoles, but no meaningful hardware improvements. This is one reason why people aren't buying Xbox hardware - it's stagnant.
    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By eiffel_g · Posted

      Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS
