Description No updates on the theme itself, but I included the elementary icon froms DanRabbit into the theme.

No imageres.dll replacements or such, just a bat file that modifies registry entries or resets them to default.

Only problem is that thumbnail previews are turned off when using this method :/
Fixed for windows 7 already but windows 8 is still a problem.

Keep in mind the updated design looks like this:Β seahorsepip.deviantart.com/art…
And a simpler version (Flat) looks like this:Β seahorsepip.deviantart.com/art…

The simple version is already available for win 8.1

Not available yet, when released I'll also release a 7680x4320 px version so anyone who wants to use it on high res displays is happy too

I need testers for a iconpack installer I'm working on, it's a iconpackinstaller that does not replace any system files

I'm waiting for the fix of admin permissions to test the installer.

Yeah having some trouble with fixing it, exe files that start scripts are somehow not startung those as admin when the exe itself is.

By the way do you know how to change the livefolder icons in windows 8? livefolder_back and livefolder_front don;t seem to work anymore in registry.

imageres than!

Neh I don't wanna do imageres on windows 8 because it "nuked" my system already multiple times and don't want a comment bomb of people with "nuked" machines :/

Other then that this method is easier to update, now I can update the Icons in my C:/Windows/Resources/Themes/Sharp/Icons folder which means I can update the icons with theme easily.

So still looking for the reg value for front and back folder icons

I understand, but i never had problem on Win8.1 with imageres!

Seahorsepip In reply to dafmat71 [2014-05-26 23:12:13 +0000 UTC]

Yeah but now the icons are windows 7, 8 and 8.1 compatible

Still working on a live folder fix, the live folder icons can be applied with icon packager or with a dll mod for now.

No not sure why that would be. Β Did you try rebuilding your iconcache?

Seahorsepip In reply to neiio [2014-05-25 11:53:19 +0000 UTC]

Edit: can't find a way yet to do it myself but iconpackager seems to have a special livefolder.exe to apply live folder icons :/

Seahorsepip In reply to neiio [2014-05-25 11:22:10 +0000 UTC]

Solved by adding some extra icon cache commands ^^

Seahorsepip In reply to neiio [2014-05-25 19:10:25 +0000 UTC]

Hmm still not working, iconpackager somehow seems to inject somehow the images in the imageres.dll without editing the imageres.dll to do it :/

So thinking about shipping a additional imageres.dll in the description or a tutorial for iconpackager.

Seahorsepip In reply to neiio [2014-05-24 18:50:40 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, using exe and bat files is not possible anymore on da so I made a vbs script to install the icons.
It does exactly the same things a iconpackager but now it's a one click approach for the users.

Wanna give the theme a try?
