juno Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 ok, i restarted my computer after some updates. before i did this, everything was running smoothly. one wierd thing happened when the monitor turned on at the start up screen, the whole screen became tinted very very very dark red, so dark i could barely see the login name. aaanyway, no big deal there, restarted the monitor and presto, nice and clear again ( the reason it did this is my monitor tried to run 100hz at 2000x1600 resolution, which i have my desktop set on) as i just said, turned the monitor off, then on and changed the HZ it was set on. i looked up at the systray, and expected to see my usual crisp systray icons, but it was not so. all pixely and wierd looking....anywayany ideas? i have some of my own, going to try them out nowheres a pic of it: Link to comment
moglenstar Posted September 2, 2003 Report Share Posted September 2, 2003 maybe you changed the minimize,maximize,close button sizes.. just re-apply your visual style, then reboot Link to comment

Deleted Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 Question for you...How did you change the icons in your WinXP PowerToy VWM? I've been asking how for about a week now, but noone cares to asnwer me ): Link to comment
dreamz Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 i think you can use reshacker to change them. Link to comment
Deleted Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 what .dll would a guy hack? And where's everyone get those icons I've seen everyone use as a replacement? Link to comment
dreamz Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 i'm not really sure, as i don't have the powertoys and i haven't tried it myself, but maybe you can try opening the exe in reshacker (or other files, just poke around). if they're bitmaps, you can edit them in mspaint or photoshop or some other program.

ronin Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 Normally the Systray icon is on the .exe file of the app...It´s is a .ico file and not a .bmp... 16x16 pixels.My pc if offline right now... i´m making some cool icons for systray with a Mac feeling on then (onlyu black, simple forms). When i put my machine back on order i post the icons.BTW... anyone know where i can resrack the Norton AntiVirus systray icon?! Link to comment
PrinzErik Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 well i reshacked norton antivirus.. but until then the e-mail protection doesn't work properly any more! So i don't know if this program is one those which cannot be reshacked so easily?!?! The file where the systrayicon is located is NAVAPW32.EXE Link to comment

DinoJr Posted September 3, 2003 Report Share Posted September 3, 2003 iceman's site has all the original mac systray icons. Link to comment

Donno if you were referring to My post... But i'm not talking about system tray Icons. All those are fine.. I'm talking about his virtual desktop manager icons.. The weird symbol, with the 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 icons next to it. It's the Windows XP MSVDM powertoy reshacked. (C:\windows\system32\msvdm.dll) I'm wondering where he got the image, hoping I can get a copy of it, and reshack mine as well. As the default image is windows-ish and ugly. Link to comment
dreamz Posted September 4, 2003 Report Share Posted September 4, 2003 @deleted: did you take a look inside the dll or exe? what did you see? you can probably extract them and then just play around with the images in photoshop. of course, you could always pm the person who had those images and ask for them.

b0se Posted September 4, 2003 Report Share Posted September 4, 2003 Is there no app that can change systray icons? Link to comment
McTrinsic Posted September 5, 2003 Report Share Posted September 5, 2003 Originally posted by b0se@Sep 4 2003, 08:10 PM Is there no app that can change systray icons? No standalone-app as much as I know.Objectbar can do it, and I have heard of some shell-replacements maybe able to. Objectbar is not able to display different icons for different programs AFAIK, though.Have fun,McTrinsic Link to comment
CAClark Posted October 15, 2003 Report Share Posted October 15, 2003 ObjectBar 1.6 has the baility to specificy alternate systray icons for any program that is displayed/has been displayed in the system tray. I have never used it, though if someone made a set of icon files to use for a mac look I'd do so!Cheers! Link to comment
