Tridicons

Published on November 20, 2010 By theAVMAN In Sneak Previews

I started doing these Icons originally for Object Dock to go with vStyler's windowblind Trident . Then at a request decided to do a mini IP for IconPackager.They have been turning out so well I decided to to do a whole Icon Package so rather than continuing to fill John's Thread here is a preview of what they will look like . I will update the progress!

Does anyone know if there is an actual list somewhere of all icons use by the PC i know it could be thouusands on programs but Icon packager has the defaults but is very hard to tell how many and of what are left I have 158 images in my folder .

From what I understand from the old days a standard icon set was something like 72 or 74 icons, so if you have 158 I imagine you've covered a lot of areas! But that was years ago, and I'm sure it may have changed by now. They sure do look good though.

What I ended up doing was just start dropping the images in and seeing whats left. Once you drop the icons in, be sure to save the package. Then you will be able to reopen it later to add the ones you missed, and resave it.

One annoying thing Iconpackager does is that sometimes the icons don't 'stick' and you have to put them in again...and again...and again. Even then, some will not apply when someone else applies the package. It's frustrating, but I thought you should know before you pull your hair out when this happens.

That is exactly what has been going on!! I reopen Icopackager and they are all over the place !!!!!! So I put them back start building new ones have to stop for the night and when I reopen I have no idea ehere I was!They are everywhere.

Thank you very much Cyndie !!!! BTW....now I know it is not a isolated event!

Tom thank you man!

Thank you Jim they are coming (slowly)

Got a clock to finish for Solstice!

I was told by Z71 to never save the iconpackage and reopen it, as it does what you guys are explaining. When I make an icon package, i will leave that icon package open on my desktop for over a week sometimes...i never close it down or save it until they are all finished. This works for me. and good job on these icons harley, very cool work!

Thank you very much kitty! ! ! I did that for a while ,the last IP I did once they were finally all done I put them all in place saved and uploaded but I keep losing track of where I am because I am using my laptop and for some reason when the DWM is deactivated (disables perpixel border) and then renabled the PC shut sdown .Unfortunately the art program I use shuts down the DWM sevice while loading and renables when closing...

I wasnt sure if this was a software issue with IconPackager or local to my machine but now I know so I will go from here with a different game plan!!!
