From technology to politics to video games; these are the random thoughts of a geek with too much time on his hands

Stardock is proud to announce the release of IconPackager 4. IconPackager allows users to easily, and safely, change nearly all of the Windows icons at once using icon "packages".  IconPackager 4 has been through quite the overhaul, one of which is the most noticeable is the completely new user interface.

There are hundreds of these packages available for download on WinCustomize.   Creating or modifying an icon pack is as simple as drag and dropping your own icons.  Users of Windows Vista will certainly appreciate the feature updates in IconPackager 4. 

Some of these include:

  1. Completely new UI.
  2. The ability to upscale pre-Vista icons.
  3. Vista users can set Live Folder icons independently of the icon package.
  4. Recoloring feature to easily change icon colors on-the-fly.

A free trial download is available.  IconPackager 4 is available for $19.95, and is part of the Object Desktop suite of desktop enhancements.   Existing users of IconPackager can upgrade for $9.95.

It was working fine at first, then within 10 minutes I was no longer able to recolor my icons. The color just won't change. The light to dark feature works but the hugh, saturation and luminance doesn't do ANYTHING to the icon.

I'm having a similar problem here. I am able to recolor the icons in the Preview Tab, and get them exactly to my liking but when I go to apply it, it for some reason or another will not change anything and just keep the icons at the status quo. Ditto for the filters: I'm able to change the filter effects in the Preview Tab but again after I Apply Changes, it doesn't do anything. Don't know if it has anything to do with the fact I am running XP or not, as it seems most of the people here do not appear to be experiencing this same problem, so I can only assume that the difference is they are probably running Vista. Dunno. Also, I have 2 gigs of RAM and a 512 meg video card, so I should definitely have enough system resources. Perhaps somebody from Stardock has something they can offer? Something I can try or what have you?

I was unable to change them, or get a change to stick


Yeah, I've noticed that some folder icons ( Downloads, Downloaded Program Files, URL History and Offline Web Pages) won't save properly in a package I'm building for personal use... after closing/reopening IP they revert back to Windows default.

Currently running IP version 4.00.163... dual booting and same happens in both OSes, XP SP3 and Vista SP1.

It's no biggie at this point in time - being I'm still working on/creating the icons - but it would be nice to be able to save the whole package when it's finally complete.
