I hacked the shell32.dll, explorer.exe, and mydocs.dll

just drop the files into your U.A. i386 folder <<<---(click for picture)

no need to extract just drop it into your i386

Here is another link. All the files are in a single archive, so you only have to wait 40 seconds once instead of three times.

Astalavista, Great work

Just one question, will this work for windows 2000 too?

[MCT]

nope, doubt it, shell32 is different

[itdevil]

but it is possible to hack win2k shell file to customize the icons ? right ?

[MCT]

ya

[itdevil]

MCT, would you like to guide a little how to do it ? I read a post related to changing shell icon but i cant seem to find the post at the moment ?

[MCT]

since i dont have 2k installed i cant really guide u , but i think it uses a shell32 doesnt it? if not google it

or, search registry for recyclebin icon or some other icon & see where its pointing too

[Astalavista]

it is easy to hack.

all u need to know what is the shell32.dll that corresponds with Windows2000.

Here is a link that will show u how to hack whatever dll file.

so what exactly does this do? does it set the alternate icons during setup? and astalavista, where did you get those awesome icons for the folders? i love that look! can i get a URL or something?

[Astalavista]

There is no alternative, the old one is gone/replaced.

You can get the icons from

1. www.iconfactory.com

2. www.wincustomize.com

3. stock icons from some cd i hv.

if u want the icons all u need to do is download icon extract

and extract the icons u want.

I am glad u guys like it. Finding the icons that i like took the longest time.

I did not post the picture of the Trash, Search, Desktop, and etc.

they look awesome! trust me.

Astalavista can you attach the icon's that you used

[lostone]

I've made mine using gant icons...

@lostone you used gui replacer, didn't you?

i plan on doing something like this but would be a great project: Ximian/Gorilla Desktop conversion from Windows.

i've got all the resources but i'll need a lot of time to apply all the changes. i've just installed ximian desktop 2 on my virtual pc to port images
