chaosblade Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Since the .exe file is packed you cannot directly edit its resources, And i dont think you can unpack it so easily. It's better not to mess with the exe anyway, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burstin' Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Ya I tried using resource hacker on it to replace the icon and the new exe it made didnt execute. lol, dont bother trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImALoseR Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 GREAT piece of software!!!!the only thing I don't like is the tray icon... so looking forward to a version that comes with th option to chance it, or maybe two types of release, a compressed and a uncompressed exe maybe?well anyway... my BT client of choice now... awesome!!!

True Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 They could always UPX it, so anyone can easily decrypt it (I do not know how much the software they uses now is, or now it works) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phaser Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 It's packed with PeCompact 2... It can be unpacked, but not that easily...Better wait for a version that allows icon changing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScubaSteve Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 how about like foobar2000 where you can choose from 20 different icons 8) bad idea, having 20 different icons compiled into the .exe would seriously increase its size. u think a standard XP icon covering just 48x48, 32x32 16x16 is 14KB in size. 20 of them would end up being larger than the program itself.

criscr0ss Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 I previously mentioned this in a message specifically to the developers but I think it's unfair to suggest this.They created an exceptional program and it's available for free to anyone who wants it. In the interest of retaining value by BRANDING their product (and it IS a product whether sold or offered gratis), I think they should retain the right to one uniform icon.If µTorrent achieves the widespread distribution it deserves, the brand becomes the developers' reward.i agree with above, and i suggest a recomendation to this brand a few icons can be selected and a vote can be placed by the community, afterall the application is for the community, and what ever is the majority vote should be the new icon. Seems right for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaosblade Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 foobar (or at least ColumnsUI on it) allow you to choose your .ico file for it. Maybe uTorrent will do the same someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshy Posted October 22, 2005 Report Share Posted October 22, 2005 i just want to choose from 5 or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
