I sent actz a PM not too long ago asking him if he could send me the large collection of custom icons again but I'm not sure whether it was him or zimphbah who did this. Does anyone know where I could find many custom icons for Windows' common apps? The zip/rar file either zimp or actz sent me included about 300 app icons.
I think he said the website where he downloaded them from had been closed.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Full Version: Windows common applications custom icons
moved to software (closest matching forum)
I was thinking about posting this in software but obviously did not.
Good move decision.
No ideas..?

I have a few old floppy disks somewhere that have a few hundered icons on them... but I don't have them with me at the time. I'll be heading down to my other home (where they should be) here in a few days, so I'll look for them 
I have a whole bunch of pngs that I could zip up and upload to your web server if you want.
That would be great, bangbang. Thanks for your recommendation too, GTX. I really liked the set actz or zimp sent me but that's okay, you may be talking about the same set for all I know. The set I'm talking about has icons ranging from Opera to Photoshop.
I'm uploading it now PHP, I'll PM you the link when it is done.
Okay thanks. I'll be installed SP2 tonight so I'll check tomorrow.
Thanks buddy.

Ahhh... the icon set I have is OLD OLD OLD school, as in Windows 3.1 school... but there are still some nice icons that aren't included in any other Windows.
Bangbang sent his set to me, it's 47.7 MB.
47.7Mb of icons?!?!? Nice

PNG files, and there are 1768 icons in there lol so that's why it's so big.
PNG files, yes. Approximately 40 minutes to go... this is grueling.
edit: It's finally done and the PNG files look great. Thank you very much. Could you delete the file from the server, supposedly I don't have permission. Thanks.

You don't have permission on your own server? Lol, ok I'll delete it now. I'm glad you like it.
I'd like to have a collection of icons... but I have no real use for them...
I guess this thread has now served it's purpose, don't you say?

Yes it has but no need to close it.
If anyone else wants the pngs, contact me via Instant Messenger (any of the 3 below) and I will gladly send you the zip file.
so just a question, how would you go about using them? Reshack or something?

Convert them to ico format then either reshack or just sue them as shortcut icons.
You've no doubt deleted them by now but if you have not just give GTX and Rezza the link.
