ok go to http://mousevich.xaker.ru/Icons.zip and wait until the server will become less busy

i NEED those icons ... they are beautiful .... D4RK-PH0ENiX ... if you already have them, can't you just zip them and upload 'em somewhere or something? Because those links don't work at all. I have a funny feeling that the server'll be busy all the time.

EDIT: So I finally got the download after refreshing and refreshing and refreshing and oh man what a let down. They aren't anything close to the new Dashboard weather icons. They're basically like the Konfabulator icons.

Bah.. that's no good.. well... my graphic skills aren't that great either., otherwise i'd jump on it.

#245515

I think we won't be seeing those icons here very soon unless someone's grabbed a copy of Tiger and willing to share the icons :P :P

#245525

Which would be warez (or not following the Developer Connection Agreement)

Be warned...

#245527

>_:( :(

#245529

i agree_ those icons are only in the latest build of tiger | i doubt anyone may have it so soon (?)

#245537

update in the preview....still needs a bunch of work to do but... :slant:

i'm using the stardock icons btw...

how does it look?

it is great, but the icons are horrible. i think some people have tiger here...ask them for it and then don't credit their name so then nobody knows :P

#245748

Much preferred to the typical konfab weather.. that's for sure.... damn.. wish i had a mac so i could ... get tiger and... somehow grab the icons... alas i do not...

hrm.

#245781

There isn't a Tiger build out yet with those new Dashboard widgets.

Looks awesome! Just release it with the current icon set since I doubt we'll be able to get a copy of tiger icons soon... you can update the icons once they are available to the general public... in the meantime, we can use what you've accomplished!! :)

#246248

I second that... It's damn nice.

#246267

thanks guys, i'll release with different icons then...

but quick question...

I think the background changes between night and day but not sure...

does anyone know of this?

#246292

we can make the icons, cant we? I got this img of almost all the icons, in realy bad qualety, but it's a start, I know we have some good grafix artists here, so this wont be impossibel.

here is the img:

take a look, and give it a try...

EDIT, ok, I gave it a go, and made this sun, it's not so good, but it can be... well, take a look:

no don't make it yourself unless your a good photoshopper from horrible quality screenshots :)

also, the background isn't purple : it is clear with some glossiness, just change the background so it isn't purple, but rather transparent :)

#246308

I'm not the greatest photoshopper, but my g/f did photo restoration for the national archives. once she gets back in town, i'll hit her up...

I just have a quick question.. not to.. ask for too much, cause anything that comes of this will be great but... how.. feasible would it be to do the animations... such as.. the wind icon as demonstrated at MWSF... just a thought.. not a request. ^_^

no i think it is purple... have you seen the dashboard video?

i really think that it's purple at night and blue in the day time...

but i can make a transparent bg if you want...

how.. feasible would it be to do the animations... such as.. the wind icon as demonstrated at MWSF... just a thought.. not a request. ^_^

SysStats supports animated image overlays so yea it's definitely do-able..

i'll work on that when i get the icons... :)

#246316

Can't wait for the release! ;)

#246381

Ok. who have Mac. Can you send to me this dashboard (files comune to weather or something). Ii will try to rip and extract the pngs from the package, even if I use PC. Thanks. mail: mousevich[at]gmail[dot]com [no spamming]
