Custom Taskbar

[Misfortune]

I spent so much time changing icons, i don't even know if i included them all in this preview, haha. There are 3 versions of the shellres.dll included in the rar, one with my newly styled htc logo, the old htc logo, and the round windows logo, choose your poison. Just remember to rename the file to shellres.192.dll or shellres.192.dll.0409.mui accordingly! All of the other files should just be replaced with the ones in your windows folder. I know this is a pain in the *** for some, but it is actually really simple. I am sure tsowen, or someone else, will be along soon to help me out with a CAB file for all the rest of you people! ---CAB's Added!---

Don't fret GSM people, I will have an update soon with the known changes that work for your taskbars. Maybe one day we will figure out how to change your signal bars!

As always comments, criticism, and DONATIONS![see sig] are welcome.

The RAR file includes all of the dll's. And the three zip files are the CAB's [big thanks to tsowen], just choose which start icon you would like!
[The first ZIP is the new HTC icon, second is the old HTC icon, and third is the round windows icon.]
[Also included is the new version of HTCVolumeControl in case you are encountering any problems]

Nice work indeed and here is the cab for you. All registry edits are in so install sdkcerts, misfortune cab and nuepowerdriver (cdma only for nuepower), also did the other cabs for the two versions of the start icon you included HTC Start, and Win Round.

I'm getting the old problem where the OEM Signal icon appears whenever the signal is over 0 bars. (see screen capture). I notice that there are 6 bars on this icon and my registry shows a setting of 5. Should I change it to six?

BTW- this is a really incredible set of icons.

UPDATE: FYI, changing that registry string to 6 got everything working. The only thing I notice is that it seems to take a long time for the signal strength to change on the icon/meter. I really don't care, as long as it works. (And this probably has nothing to do with the icon- I was just noticing.)

I installed the HTCVolumecontroll.dll file to my device running silence 9 ROM and it is not changing ...overwrites and all... it seems my device is using the HTCVolumeControl.dll.0409 ,, does anyone have that version for this taskbar?
i tried to just rename the htcvolumecontrol.dll with the .0409 and copied to windows folder but it just copied there and didnt overwrite existing one... didnt work.. that was wishful thinking...

The Leener is checking in! and I had wayyyyyyyyyyyy too many pages to read.. haha.

Kudos and thanks to everyone that's contributing to this righteous thread!

Many of you have been asking for the 'Non Active Data' icons in the taskbar 6 elite taskbar to be a different colour
because it was hard to differentiate between 'active' and 'non-active'.. so I went ahead and changed them.

I tried to make the globe gray but it was too much gray with the gray bars so I opted for a nice red.

DLL file can be downloaded here (also updated main post #5):
www.mediafire.com/htcleener
taskbar 6 elite Folder

Enjoy!

Note:
this CDMA_RSSI_PPC.dll will ONLY CHANGE your Non-Active Data icons to red,
all other standard icons in this DLL for the taskbar 6 elite taskbar will remain the same.

*Standard rules apply for swapping out DLL files

First off, please don't quote big images like that. It eats into our bandwidth. Second, are you using a custom rom?
