In honor of my upcoming 57th birthday (June 22), I've just uploaded EZpup-2.1.7 to our mirrors. I couldn't wait for Puppy 2.17 and judging by Barry's blog, I may need to update EZpup again sometime after that's released anyway.

PkaG has mirrored here:
http://www.pkagfiles.net/puppy-files/

and MU will advise the location on his mirror shortly.

EZpup-2.1.7 completely supercedes EZpup-1 and EZpup June Edition. Both may be removed and replaced by the latest version, which is still only 15Mb packed.

New features include X11 mouse cursor themes, new wallpapers, and some modified buttons for the Vista_Black_IV theme. I have also included the new Liberation Truetype fonts, a patched Freememapplet and updated the mime-types for Rox 2.6

Cheers

OK... I did it, love the look... but once again, my Open Office menu items have all disappeared! Do I need to reinstall OO again??? Some way to get them back on the menus?
thanks,

.... and a very small 'issue.' Is there some way to change the pawprint on the menu to 'something else'? Like 'start' or 'menus'? This is a machine that I will use in business travel, and I would like to show puppy off, but it needs to look 'serious.' I think the paw print is not 'in sync' with the rest of the looks of ezpup.. which I really like a lot!

WhoDo,
Your EZpup is awesome!! I was even thinking that now windows users would want to have the same icons!
Maybe it's now time to create puppy themes for windows, instead of making windows themes for puppy!!!!
Thanks a lot for your work!

I forgot to ask, do you know, by any chance, how to change the "quicklaunch" icons?

Thanks a lot WhoDo!
I'm gonna try this as soon as possible! By the way, I can see we are using the same aeofox theme!
Another question: do you think by reducing the taskbar height of one pixel will solve the little irregularity we can see around the quicklaunch icons or is ot far more complicated to solve?
Thanks

thanks WhoDo for answering my puppy/hacao questions over on Distrowatch, and Happy Birthday!

but I have a couple more questions Embarassed

does ezPup set up Wine/WineXS, CUPS, Skype, Yahoo! Messenger, Java installer and the other extras found in Hacao? The look is very nice but those are the things about Hacao that really grabbed my interest. (The ezpup help page seems to list only GUI modifications.)

if not, does anyone know if is there another "metapackage" or puplet to take care of all that? (I see one called 2.16 NOP, with IceWM, OOo, CUPS & XSane; but not the other features)

thanks in advance
