Custom PNG icons for Shortcuts - Touch Cruise ROM Development

Does anyone know if this is possible? I'm trying to change the icon of a shortcut I created to Resco Photo Viewer and then tried to change the Icon with a PNG to no avail. Is this even possible?

SK ShortcutCreator, somewhere in development thread is another one Shortcutmaker. U'll have to convert it to dll or icl but there a loads of apps to manipulate with icons....(for PC)

How to change icons to file types??

I'm trying to figure out how to assign icons back to file types from the default program used.
As you can see in the first image, the icons are blank for my .jpg files. Currently, SPB Imageer is the app that opens it by default. For some reason, I dont know how, but the icons change to the blank ones.
In the second image, the address bar shows the key in the registry to change the default icon image for jpg files.
The third image shows the string. What number do I put to use the Imageer icon for jpg files or any other app that you may want. That number you see was put by me and it does not work.
Other apps use different numbers for there own icons for the file types that they are associated with. Some examples are: Opera uses -131, TCPMP uses -1000, WMplayer uses -2002, Word uses -13072, PowerPoint uses -200
How do I find out the number??
Try the Pike Icon editor. I forgot where I got it, and couldn't figure it out after I had it installed. Maybe if you try this and are able to do something with it,you can help me. I know it's a cab file unzipped from a zip file.Cingular 8125ROM 2.25.11.1

Changing program default icons?

Is there a way to change the default icon associated with a program on WM6?
so do i have to move the exe file into desktop, change icon, and move back?
You don't have to change the icons in the programs you can insted make a dll with icons and add to the links of the program.
so the link if opened with notepad would look something like this 98#"\Windows\cool_app_look.exe"?icon.dll,-46
you can also edit the icons in .exe with reshack

Woot! Changing default icons in WM6.1

First of all, the start menu icon
i got help from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2271995&postcount=8
and u can see how i got it on my BA
Want it??
the file is attached too. (signed already)
rename the file as shellres.96.dll
and paste this file in ur \Windows folder in ur device
Ofcourse u have to make a backup of originall shellres.96.dll too
Njoy this nice gray start menu icon
MORE ICONS ON THE WAY, I AM STILL DISCOVERING bout the icon changing thingi.
POST UR ICONS IN "PNG" with transparent background and in a multiple of 8 width and height that is 16x16, 24x24, 64x64, 128x128, 256x256.
so that i may get more time in modding rather in finding
GL all and happy modding. Atlast folder icon changing will work
Step 2, Changing the default folder icons
here are they
EDIT: the resource hacker is showing the folder icons in two pairs (16x16 and 32x32). If i am gonna replace one, the whole icon group gets changed. so uptill here no luck. will some body help me making a dll file with two icons (one for 16x16 and other for 32x32)
One small note,
the complete name of the file being replaced is shellres.96.dll.0409.mui
The reason I am making this comment is because depending on the rom (WWE or any other country ID), this might change. For instance, WWE is 0409, but I believe that German was 040C.
Other than that, good post. Let us know when you are able to change the system folders.
the mui exists there for localization thingi
I have used shellres.96.dll, the one i have pasted here and the screenshot is of my BA's. So I say authentic. I havent tried ur method since i am going fine
Now about the folders, the problem comes with pointing two icons in same icondump (i-e i need to have a file (like shell32.dll in windows for PC) which should only contain 32x32 folder icon (normal) and 16x16 icon (small). I dont know how to make such icon resource files. I have all PNG sets for my desired icons. I straight away convert them through an activeX based converter. Then THE PROBLEM IS ABOUT DUMPING TWO .ICO FILES IN ONE .ICO

change icon system

hello guys .. am new
and I would like to greet everyone!
I write to ask if you can change the icon system (the ones in the programs, settings tab, etc.). with which programs?
Thanks to all and I hope you respond
hello
a good program is manilla customiser v0.8 which allows you to change separate elements of the TF3D interface (clocks, icons, curtains, sliders + a few other things). This program can be found here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437420
I don't use the TF3D but I would still want to customize the folders icon (start menu/programs).
As it is now the only icons I have are the [games] and [office mobile] icons (icon.ink file). Ive tried to import the icon.ink file from my Glofiish X500+ but when I transfer them they don't work anymore...
Any suggestions?
Hi
i am useing SK Shortcut Manager to do this.
http://www.s-k-tools.com/sksmgr/sksmgr.html
and the .lnk file doesn' t work if it is transferd to another device for a simple reason.the icon itself is stored in .dll file or in .exe file.you would have to transfer those files to.if you are interested PM me and i will upload my .dll files with icons.
sorry for my bad english

[Q&A] Exporting a .dll file that contains .ico

Hello Everyone,
I would like to know how I can create a .dll file with Icons (.ico)
You know like shellres32.dll in windows, or other dll files you could download from the net containing icons, which allow you to change icons for maps on your mobile, laptop, etc...
So basicly what I need is a program which allows me to create .dll files.
The icons (.ico) I already have.
Thanks in advance!

No one that has expierence creating a dll file (containing ico files)?
i remember a thread in "development & hacking" forum where were posted a bunch of icons and also a dll containing the same icons... But i'm too lazy to search back, so give a shot there. If i'm not wrong the icons were iphone ones
