  1. and in the "Networkplaces" (I don't know the english word) the icon has only 32x32px.

    Some icons have all needed images inside (16, 32, 48) but the os just can't display them properly. That's the case with "windows firewall" and "wireless network settings" icons in XP SP2's control panel, for example, where the system uses the wrong internal image (48px) in normal icon view (32px).

  2. I appreciate your opinion since you were the only one who said something. I don't know, sometimes people seem to need pictures or download links to get involved in topics. That's really sad.

  3. Oh my God. This guy is making history.

    I asked for this so many times over the years... I can't believe it's finally available!!!!!! :w00t:

    THANK YOU TIHIY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Edit:

    Doesn't work here. NVIDIA video card w/ 32-bit support. :(

  4. Ok, this may sound crazy but how about using vertically-oriented folders as in Windows Vista while keeping the XP-style on their colors and borders? Would be a nice, refreshing touch.

  5. This is really cool. Nice job.

    Just one comment:

    These kind of packs always seem to make the same mistake with the startmenu icons. They are far too big and that's because authors are using the wrong images. If you take a closer look at the startmenu in a non-customized windows interface you will realize these icons are actually smaller than every other system icon.

    So the proper sizes are:

    small icons in startmenu= 16x16 pixel icon in a 16x16 grid

    regular icons in startmenu=24x24 pixel icon centered in a 32x32 grid

    large icons in startmenu (actually all around the OS)= 32x32 icon centered in a 48x48 grid

    (Please ignore this if you are using the "large icons" system setting and the startmenu icons just look like this at 32x32. I can't tell by the screenshots because of its low res.)

  6. I really loved MS Chat back in '99. It just worked. It was a free, easy-to-use irc client with a clean interface and I didn't need any of those xtra features for nerds that other clients like mIRC were offering.

    Secure? I don't know. I never had any problems back then but this is another century. :lol:

    Luna_Element_for_Winamp_by_neotool.png

    Gee, it looks a lot like neotool's, except colored for LE5. You should at least give the guy credit where credit is due (you even removed the link to his website in the skin info, assuming you took his skin, that is ... which it really looks like you did).

    I don't think he needs to give credit to anybody. The skins are different enough and besides, both are based upon styles developed by Microsoft itself and copied many times by several skin/style artists (the author of LUNA Element among them).

    BTW, Bledd's titlebars and control buttons look much better IMHO.

  8. Very very nice! I really like the play/pause/etc. buttons.

    How about removing the bevel around white areas and making the progress bar look a bit more like a regular windows progress bar (you know, a rectangle with rounded corners) ? That'd be great.

  9. Well those items are not in the appearance tab. If you don't wan't to use any 3rd party appz then you must change them through regedit ( "hkey_current_user / control panel / colors" ). That way is very easy but a little tedious so i'd recommend 3DCC.

    The flat systray effect can't be done without extra software. Try Tclock or Effective Desktop (discontinued but great IMHO)
