moogly Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 I like this style of icon because they are easily understanding and stay close to the original ones. Especially when you use the icons by default during a long time... like me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLACKCAT Posted November 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Though I made these icons from scratch, some of my icons in toolbar are inspired from Tango! by N3fr0n, which is my all time favorite skin and All icon (The All icon which is in Status pane of µTorrent, not all icons ) is inspired by µniversal v2 by savaden.

moogly Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Maybe the Inactive icon (Status pane) could be in black or another color because white icon on white background is not the best for reading. Anyway I like the rest, I'm using it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thelittlefire Posted November 8, 2008 Report Share Posted November 8, 2008 Your preview of the skin doesn't work (assume you took screenshot of uT?) and just a guess about the main.ico, the site doesn't handle 256^2 px icons. Aside from the fact it's wasteful to include an uncompressed 256x256 px icon in the ICO file.Edit: 23 icons in the ICO yes? I can't read the last 7. Additionally including greyscale... OK? The previous 4 halftone green, why? it's grainy as greyscale but with your lovely palette.. The first 9 work well, 16-48 px in two border styles, but you really should change the first icon to either 32 or 16 px... due to the way icon loading happens in (older windows) so you don't get a [blank] icon.

BLACKCAT Posted November 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Oops, Screenshot updated.......The thing about the main.ico is that I selected all available option in IconWorkshop to ensure the icon file can be used in old windows version too. But that doesn't seem to work. I'm working on it and I will upload the file on skins page soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelittlefire Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Hmmm I don't know what else to point you at. I'd next check to see if perhaps it can't handle > 15 icons in the file. Maybe the index is limited to a 4-bit value??Ahha! nice skin-in-action. Is that the default Vista skin/wallpaper? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moogly Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Hello.BLACKCAT, can you just design quickly a Tabs bmp where inactive tabs are in grey ?(like that: http://img32.picoodle.com/img/img32/3/10/18/savaden/f_universal2sm_fe9a1a6.png )Thx in advance.

BLACKCAT Posted November 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 I was going to do that yesterday only, but most of the skins have same style. Was trying some different.Anyways, grayscale is looking better because, files and logs icons are white. Putting white overlay on them wasn't great idea. Thanx again for suggestion!Edit : I thing there is something wrong with the skins page Click here to View. The original toolbar is Click here to view. Strange!

thelittlefire Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 Thank you for the link(s). I just thought the layout was ...Vista-glassified and looked pretty. I still don't know anything more about the icon. Perhaps you can check savaden's site or forum profile here to drop him an email.Regarding skins.php yeah sometimes the database gets corrupted. 1021 = 1046 right now wouldn't be the first time.

savaden Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 I'm not sure why your ico files arent uploading to the skins section, BLACKCAT.When I've created mine, I've only released sizes 48, 32, 24, 16. I can see you've created many more. But I've opened yours in my Axialis Icon Workshop and I cant see anything wrong. Sorry.Then again, we are talking about the utorrent skins section...which is about as functional as a chocolate teapot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Hm, well clearly, there is a bug with the uploader not accepting any icons. I've bugged Firon about it. Sorry for the inconvenience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 I'll look into it ASAP. Sorry for the hassle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatever Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 µ = "micro", so..."µtiful" = "microtiful"?Just kidding... This is a great set. Switching to it now. Thanks for making it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 Yes nice design, that is my default skin since it has been released. I hope BLACKCAT will update it for next uT releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatever Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 I don't understand this: I have the "µtiful" tray.ico in %appdata%\utorrent, but the tray icon isn't working (the default tray icon is shown instead). I am using 1.8.3.14755, but I am able to get other tray icons working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
