Reply to List of WindowsXP Icons in Icons WinCustomize Forums

That's a good question, Ive seen IP themes with widely varying numbers of icons. If I understand part of your question, you mean the index 'list' that windows assigns the system icons by, I've seen some icon sets that are numbered and had to make the IP by hand. As for quantity - a basic set has the desktop(6), start menu(5), folders (23), drives (8), shortcut/sharing/networking (8), after all that you're up around 50 icons, depending.

Reply to msstyle import question in SkinStudio Help WinCustomize Forums

Thanks Jafo, just being cautious on the 2nd question,& wanted to hear it from someone else. And thanks to Mr Snidely for your suggestion - I guess I've read about 'hacking' and 'patching' the shell, I wasn't up to speed as to whether shellstyle.dll played some sinister part of that method. Turns out you're the one to talk to since I have a number of the ports you did of KoL's stuff. As you might guess I'm a bit of n00b at actually using

msstyle import question in SkinStudio Help WinCustomize Forums

Occasionally I've find an .msstyle that I want to import with SkinStudio. With most I get a SkinStudio popup with a big red 'X' that says "A file of that format? It might be very useful. Here it will not work." Kind of cryptic. My guess was that it's referring to the shellstyle.dll that usually resides in a subfolder, which of course we don't need since we're using Windowblinds (or I am anyway). A couple of .msstyles I've been able to convert by tossi

Reply to PC Magazine Desktop in MyColors WinCustomize Forums

Got my curiosity Brad - I read PC Mag for a few years in my early computing days, thinking it was the definitive word at the time (chuckle), so I wanted to see what sort of look they had cooked up for the modern era. (I've still got the older PC Magazine WB by pixstudio). You do have to register with the big ZD (Ziff Davis) in order for access to "members-only" downloads. If you go through with it, there's a couple of things to be aware of - I went

Reply to I'm absolutely SICK in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

I usually dose up on OJ or cranberry juice, but I'm sort of with RPGFX-when I've got the cough or sniffles I just take a day or 3 off and be as comfortable as I can be,and let the body deal with it. I don't think I've ever really 'taken' anything that actually didn't do anything my system wasn't already doing. I'm trying to remember off the top-I think the rhinovirus (common cold) has about about 3-4 days life in a relatively healty person before the w

Reply to IconX in DesktopX WinCustomize Forums

Wow, that's an overwhelming amount of information on your system: I may have missed a reference to your videocard, which (if I had to take a wild guess here) I would check the settings for. All the specs indicate you've got enough 'under the hood' to run IconX. I use it at work on a P4 2.4 with 512M RAM and an Nvidia Geforce FX 5200 videocard with 128M RAM, not the greatest videocard in the world, but I run IconX on startup and use Acrobat 7 with no is

ObjectDock Invalid floating point operation crash when changing OD Config icon in Stardock Software WinCustomize Forums

Whenever I'm in the process of configuring a new theme for myself in ObjectDock, everything's fine until I get to the 'Configure Dock' icon, at which point I right-click to open the Dock Entry Properties panel, and OD immediately crashes and shuts down with the following error msg : "The Exception Floating point invalid operation.(0xc0000090) occurred in the application at location 0x0046abcd. Click on OK to terminate the program." Also happens sometimes with changing the clock icon. After which
