Dave-O, how did you get the icons to work? When I downloaded the package, they were in windoze coding.

And Slick Orange is actually not as bright as you'd think. It's very useable. The menus are actually a light pinkish orange color with the select color being a rich red. And the window background color and all that is that light pinkish orange too.

I love it.
I've had no problems with the itunes controls. You can change colours and transparency now, it is brilliant; go for the upgrade but keep another launcher around in case you get that bug.

Thanks, I downloaded Butler and it's awesome! I don't remember the last version I tried but I remember that I did check for updates for a while. This is great though! Thanks for suggesting I try Butler again.

That would be up to Mac15. I could send it his way but it will start to make the kit very large in size.

GuiKitty on the way.

P.S. No credit needed. Sometimes a different set of eyes makes things clearer.

I really need to register Konfabulator, might do it just now actually. Also to whoever was looking for the Homer icon, it used to be on XIcons, the set is called Simpsons X. If you can't find it anywhere then drop me a mail and I'll send you the set.

Okay, that's weird. But it's good that you got the fonts anyhow.

Click for my desktop. Feat. GANT, iLust + various icons. The wallpaper is something I grabbed from a french site and modded it a bit to fit my res.

btw. cool looking desktops everyone.

The HD icon was in the Kill Bill set that Hein made, as for the wallpaper my mate linked me to the image and I simply extended the black bar and the yellow. I could send you the icons if you drop me a mail

The HD icon is from the Kill Bill icon set by Hein Mevissen.

His icons however are no longer available. No offense to Hein but give it a rest, I can understand your no longer making icons, but to not allow any old ones to be downloaded is just mean to us.

I figure it has to do with compensation in form of hard cash *bling* *bling*

The company already apologized(I believe) and said that they are now using their own icons. I cannot verify this since I have not downloaded their software. If you read on Hein's website you will see what the company told him. I believe Hein is a stubbern one. just my opinion ofcourse.

Fonzie: What system font is that you are using in that screenshot? It looks great. Most fonts look like s*** when you set them as a system font using silk or tinkertool.

Thanks Fonz, that font is awsome. I love it.



But now I have a new question: The icon all the way to the left of your dock (probably the finder) looks like the push start button of a Honda S2000. I doubt that is part of the GANT icons (correct me if I am wrong). Where did you get it?

You can download it here: GANTClock based on the original Analog Clock by Arlo Rose

Remember: It's a Konfabulator widget. I accidently deleted the permission email from mattahan. But I did put his "go ahead" in the readme file. Also, I did nothing else but modify the resources and change the .kon file to get things to work. Please to not distribute this as your own.

So you will notice that the About graphics are the same as the original.

Hehe, that's a PNG found Here It says "Engine Start" Use Pic2Icon to make it a native OSX icon or Iconverter to make it an .icns.

That font link, you can thank DigitalJames and cmove for that and maybe people before them !? It really rocks!
