flupke Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Sorry for the terrible compression but have a look at the timezone bitmap. Off course it looks nice but it is geographicly not correct. Someone mensioned it already in another topic some time ago and posted an alternative. The color combination is a bit different but they both look nice IMO.Here is this topic: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=57183
Targaff Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Off course it looks nice but it is geographicly not correct.Neither's yours, of course, so an argument of geographical inaccuracy is pretty much moot.
flupke Posted December 13, 2005 Posted December 13, 2005 Sorry, I was not very clear. I mean that some seas are missing. I don't care about the projection method.
MAVERICKS CHOICE Posted December 14, 2005 Posted December 14, 2005 Excellent release XPero all working very nicely here appreciate your work .CheersMC.
XPero Posted December 16, 2005 Author Posted December 16, 2005 Is so much important the geographical accuracy?
Dumpy Dooby Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 Is so much important the geographical accuracy?It's not entirely important ... it's just nice to correct the problem. That is the intent of XPize: to continue where MS seems to have left off; right? I look at that bitmap maybe once or twice a year. I don't care a whole lot. But then again ... how often do I look at some of the updated icons in SYSTEM32? So I suppose it could be argued that there are quite a few aesthetics that are not "important," but yet you do them anyway. But like I've said, not a big deal to me ... I just thought I'd throw in my $0.02. *shrug*Thanks a bunch for this program. It's wonderful. I've been using it for quite some time now and I love it. I love the updates. And I love that you continue to maintain development. Good job, man.
mr_sepia_tone Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 (edited) Hi XPero! Just like to say, what a great job you've done with XPize - but, then, you already knew that!Many thanks, and keep up the good work. I will be making a donation, soon... Edited December 24, 2005 by mr_sepia_tone
NightWolf1298 Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 Great work so far!Just to add to the list of future release items:The "switch primary and secondary buttons" images (there are two of them):The icons for Microsoft's .NET Framework configuration utilities:The icons for .NET framework components in IE's security dialog:The logo for Microsoft Project 2003 (in Help -> About):(Also, would it be possible to add a manifest file for Project 2003 so that the controls use the themed XP appearance?)Thanks again for your work on XPize. Great job!
alsiladka Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 The logo for Microsoft Project 2003 (in Help -> About):Correct me if i am wrong, but are not we here to update n upgrade the look of xp and its inbuilt components.if we go in for each such infividual products, dont know what we have up against us. So please keep the request up to xp only.
Kelsenellenelvian Posted December 19, 2005 Posted December 19, 2005 In the Xpize process he has built in extra iicons for some things like office 2003 so I don't see why this wouldn't be a problem.
XPero Posted December 19, 2005 Author Posted December 19, 2005 No real bugs with this BETA? C'mon, there should be. And remember that the uninstaller has to be tested as well

XPero Posted December 19, 2005 Author Posted December 19, 2005 I will only take into account XPizing Windows in built apps and most common apps (like Office 2003). The less, the better So I will improve only very common ones.
