How did you change the icons in your superbar? What is the name of the icon pack? Thanks.

You have great taste in music BTW! :)

hah! thanks man , I've been listening to that album a whole lot again after a while. one of my alltime faves

The superbar icons are a hit and miss for me , I'll explain below

I have tried to change the gmail icon , but it doesnt change yet

What I do: Lets take the Windows Explorer icon as an example

1) Rightclick the superbar icon

2) Rightclick the "Windows Explorer" button

3) Click Properties

4) Change Icon

5) Choose from your icon library of choice

6) Apply , Save etc etc

Now , here's the part I don't fully understand - when I do this - the icons don't change immediately. But after I try to install any random program, the icons I've changed update themselves and show as per my screen

The icon set I use is here Ecqlipse 2

Hope this helps!

Yes, it takes a while until the GUI refreshes.

You can "hard reset" the icon cache.

1. start cmd

2. kill explorer in task manager

3. in cmd go to \users\your username\appdata\local\

4. and type del iconcache.db /a

5. restart explorer

Your icons are changed :whistle:

worst wallpaper ive ever seen

Picture is artistic IMHO and I like it, but I wouldn't recomend it as a computer desktop wallpaper/background.

At least not without a proper theme or matching skin.
