Cube Icons Download thread

Here's a threat JUST for Cube Icons so we dont have to go searching threw 50 pages to find icons.
If possible submit all file formats so we dont have to do any modifications. Png's, Bmp's and Brn's... whatever we need
Also, if possible ,so people like myself who suck at photoshop dont have to dink around and what not to have a horrible looking icon, maybe try and make it so all 3 cube colour background options are included (bottom middle and top) as well even going as far as making the media cube side icons to replace Music, Photos and Videos. In the new settings modification program its looking like we'll be able to modify the mediahub side shortly too very easily instead of having to go into the \windows and altering it from there.
Having all these icon spaces covered will just ensure that we have the option of placing them anywhere on the cube.
Add any icons you might have so we have all the files in one thread. Even if they dont cover all the icon spaces.
Carlosp's Touch Settings Program
If you do want to customize your cube please go to Carlos' "Touch Settings" Thread and download the program he's been working on. He has a new beta version available right now that makes it really easy to not only customize the icons on both your ApLauncher and MediaHub panels of the Cube but also now can change the animation as well so you no longer have the default icons showing up anymore when the cube spins.
Go here for the beta testing program:

OR go right to here to download the latest "actual" release of the progam (which doesnt change your animations):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556
If anyone has any requests to make for icons please dont hesitate to ask and I'm sure someone can get on making one. They dont take too long to make so please lets get a really good archive of icons going for the Touch!
Here's a quick referance list of where to find the icons that have so far been uploaded to this thread. Most Icons are only made for the ApLauncher Panel so far unless otherwise stated in the title. Should you require the icons that you like for the MediaHub Panel as well just contact the person who posted it and request it.

Download the Zip file below for the ApLauncher blank Icon set as well as the MediaHub Icon set to make your own. Remeber to post them for everyone to use.
Also, in order to convert your BMP files to BRN files so those of us with the CDMA version of the Touch you will need the BrnConvert.exe program. Very easy to use just drop your BMP file in and it converts it for you. Then package everything up in a Zip or Rar file and you are good to post!
You might want to attach a jpg with each file...
so people know whether it's worth downloading or not.
I'm curious though, why have BMPs and BRNs as well? The cube icons are all PNGs. You'd only need BNRs for the other face of the cube (Pictures, Videos and Music)

I've got a Telus branded Canadian CDMA HTC touch and wasn't able to load on normal PNG's for the icons. When I would the space would just be vacant of any icon all together and show a black space. The icons, even the ones on the application launcher side of the cube had to be in the BRN format. In order to convert the files to BRN they had to be in BMP format first which is why those are there as well. You wouldnt happen to have the blank grey backgrounds so people like myself can try and make our owns would you? I assume you had blanks in order to make the tomtom and Navigon GPS icons for us
Sure,
here you go:
Brilliant. This should help alot of people. Thank you! Do you have the Media Hub backgrounds as well?
Here are the blanks and the one that I've designed for my Touch
In case anyone wants to use them:
You got some nice media icons there, only the video one seems to have the wrong background, appears to be to light.
Quite right!
Re-posted...
Just being trying those media icons, but you don't have the blank for the main screen, so as mine revolves it shows the original icons.

I just reopend the files as BMP's and resaved them as PNG files. Try redownloading the tomtom files and load them onto your phone. If that doesnt work maybe try opening the BMP's yourself and save those as PNG's... Also is it possible that your cube requires the files to be in BRN format? I tried a number of different icons before I realized that I needed BRN files. When I would load the png files on I would just get an empty black space where the icon was supposed to be.

HTC Home Customizer - Launcher icons

Anyone know how to add your own icons for programs you add to the launcher? The default selections had custom icons, but when I add a program from the list to an empty laucher spot, it uses the default windows icon. Can that be changed?
Hmm
If its on the storage card it may not use a icon. How ever if it is in the Main mem it should use the current icon on the shortcut. There is a program to change them but did u install the HTC Home Customizer!?
Yes, I installed the customizer, and chose an Icon set. When i went to the "Launcher" tab, there were about 6 entire already there, like "backlight" and "Launch Program Folder" and "Lock Device"
All of those options had custom icons. However, if I add an app to a blank spot, it uses the default windows icon. Can I provide an icon of my own choosing for the phone to use in that launcher spot?
I would like to do exactly the same. have nice launcher icons for other programs. Like GroupSMS. Help Anyone?
THX
Ben
I was poking around in the registry and noticed therfe was a value called iconpath in HKLM/software/HTC something or other. Maybe that would work?
Its best to resize them to 32x32 before setting them as custom icons or your launcher looks messy. Took a while before I could my the Opera icon right I store in the My Pictures folder and Im doing just fine.
How?
You said you were able to resize the icons, did you do that with the directory listed above?
there is a tutorial on the HHC site.
Im having the same issue. Im using the stock Spb MS / Suite / Weather / Plus tabbed layout. When I added programs last night *some* of them showed up correctly, but now this morning after powering back on, many are the default windows icon.Example: Resco registry editor and Resco explorer. I tried changing the icon, but in Spb's menu it only shows icons in Spb's bank of icons.
Very annoying. Still playing....

Shortcut to standart launcher and settings browser ?

Hi there .. any chance to start standard launcher (start/programs) and standard settings browser (start/settings) with a normal shortcut ? I mean LNK file in windows/start menu.
Possibility to launch these with fingers is one of the few things I miss in SE panel, having shortcuts for that would help (and would be useful for any launcher).
Thanks.

I "lost" the HTC_Calender icon

Hi,
while trying to rearrange my program screen (via creating new sub-folders and cut and paste the links to these new folders)
on the HTC HD2 I "lost" the icon for the HTC_Calender program
I now only have a white/blue general folder like icon now.
The link is working though, HTC Calender starts.
Anybody knows, how I can rearange the correct icon for the link ?
The icon itself seems to be apparent in the /windows folder
as HTC_calendar.?
Thx for help
gersi
Try a soft reset, if you haven't done one yet.
Install the program JWMD Icon Changer and find the calender icon and select it to load to default icon.
