some new TP2 Start Menu icons

kiint · #1 (**permalink**) 10-27-2009, 01:15 AM

Ive made some 64x64x300dpi Start Menu icons for my TP2, thought I'd share them. In no way do I claim any creative ownership of source images, I just used pictures I liked for various bits of software and gussied them up a bit.

All in .PNG format with an index, enjoy

Great work! Just a note - WM 6.5 icons are at 90x90 to be at maximum quality (you may exceed that though because of the higher DPI, not sure on that)

Besides that, downloading now!

thanks

Copy the icons to your device (ie. "\MyIcons\")

then *AFTER* you populate the start menu icon slots, you just need to edit/change following registry keys:

HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher

(I prefer PHM Regedit m'self)

Now find the subkey number corresponding to your icon slot (0=Top left, 1=Top Midle, 2=Top Right, 3=Next row left column, etc)

Just edit these Keys for each slot: (this is just an example)
- DispName = "Camera"
- IconPath = "\MyIcons\Camera.png"
- Path = "\Windows\Camera.exe"

thanks, just found that setting worked best on my Tp2 running 6.1.
The DPI probably does (way) overcompensate ;]

So this only affects the program icon in the TouchFlo programs list, not in the system list, and not on the program list in SPB MS, correct?

Ah, just checked and you are correct! This is where I checked (Microsoft site regarding WM6.5 icons): http://windowsteamblog.com/blogs/win...obile-6-5.aspx

Great work!

Yes Mike, the registry tweaks only affect the icon displayed in the TF3D Program Tab...not the actual app icon or the SPB one
