Beautiful Icons for TC

Post by *Janus »

Here is a link to the best looking set(s) of FREE icons I have found on the Internet.
Faux Icons

(page is big, so it takes some time to load, be patient ..)

For those who want to "embellish" :) the look of Total Commander, I strongly recommend those icons.

Thanks to Paul Boyer for creating such beautiful sets and posting them for free download.

Enjoy! :D

Indeed they are beautiful, the only problem I see is that you can only see their beauty when you use the larger sizes 48x48 and above.
Unfortunatley TC is limited to 16x16 and 32x32.

:(

That has been my grief, now, most of the new icon sets are designed for WinXP and I have seen "icons" up to 128x128 therefore completely unusable for our purpose.
Maybe you sould take a look at something less "XP" oriented like :

:)   Hi !
.... But all bars at the same size currently if you have several ones.
• With a pinch of luck, you could find a lot of threads about these problems with the Search...

More than 32x32 Icons ? I do not think it would work, unless you only have the default icons and a extremely high screen resolution.

Normally I work with a screen resolution of 1024x768 with small fonts and I like to put the most important commands or applications represented with an icon on the button bar, these icons are size 24, and logically I found that as soon as I start to put commands or applications in my button bars, then, soon I run out of space and I need another button bar. I already have 2 button bars. Now, imagine how funny would TC look like if I start using even bigger icons.

:shock:

I don't know if the link is broken or not (haven't test it, sorry) but the .ip extension must be correct. Most of these icon sets have been designed for a software called IconPackager (by Stardock) than can accept icon sets both in .zip format and .ip (I guess "ip" stands for IconPackager here).

You can though explore the contents of a .ip file by pressing Ctrl+PgDown on it with TC.

:)   Hi again!
• Please, have a look here:
http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=2702&highlight=buttonbar
... and also there:
http://ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=2686&highlight=buttonbar
• You may get a lot of icons for free from my Web page (button below here) >> TC page >> English. Not "beautiful (though...), but numerous and explicit.
• A small included collection as 48*48 allows you to make a test (but like I told above, ALL icons in BOTH bars will be in the same size).

Yes, sorry, Roman, I realized that after my post. Some time ago they were downloadable, I don't know what happened.
Anyway, I have them in .rar format if anyone wants them. I don't have an FTP to upload them but I can send them by e-mail if you want to.
Please contact me to tcforum(at)mailhub.com.ar
The size of the rar files is about 2 MB, but I can split them for e-mail purposes if needed.
If someone here has an FTP and wants to upload them, just ask.

Regards,
Janus

Panos,

Might be, but all the other files were zips.

Great collection of icons! Thanks!

Is there a way to have a single file with all of them included?

One more thing. Could you consider creating a replacement set (or sets) for the standard button bar icons also? Thanks!
