slimzky Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 remove 128x128 icons from ur resources specially from shell32.dll. 128 icons are not necesssary. it will result in big file. my shell32 before was abou 35mb when uncompressed.. this is because im using the default resources from transformation pack.. but when i removed 128, 96 icons, i trimmed down my shell32 to 13mb & 3mb when compressed. i still got the look i want.
