My answer to the yellow Outlook new mail icon...

Hey everyone,

This is the first mod I've ever actually made myself. I really like all the OSX-style black and white systray icons, and I try to keep all my non OSX icons hidden, but I use Outlook 2003 enough that I wanted icons for it that matched the other OSX-style tray icons. Just copy the DLL in the zip file into C:Program FilesMicrosoft OfficeOFFICE111033 and run Outlook.

It looks something like this:

Hope someone else can use it!

P.S. apologies in advance if this is already out there somewhere - I looked around quite a bit before I resorted to making my own.

No, because it's a different DLL. Sorry!

It would have been cool if you had gotten the transparency down, but nice job for a first release? My only question...

Outlook 2003? Ugh..

Transparency?

The insides of the icons were meant to be white, if that's what you mean...

LOL outlook 2003 isn't so bad. It's a VAST improvement over XP, and provides a lot more functionality. It's a lot more stable, too.
