Here it is

'trio' on the forum has devised a new clock fix for Pwidgets. There was an issue where the clock would not appear automatically. However, zigbert is unable to use his minimal clock skin with the new fix.

I am wondering if you would like to create a nice, lightweight skin for zigbert? Size 140x140, png format. I think round. We all know he likes grey. Maybe to match the icon set?

Zigbert is also very happy with the weather font. Thanks again!

Regards

Mick

EDIT: It is not necessary now because we found another clockfix, but if you are bored one day...

I can't compete with WhoDo, but here is a theme that I started with 4.0 and finished a complete set in 4.2...I just zipped it up, so download it, unzip it in /usr/local/lib/X11/themes/ and it will be good to go...

Suggestion: I know you are busy, WhoDo, but would you mind maybe renaming this thread to something that can continue to include icon themes for 4.0 and up (Dingo + icon themes, or something...)? Or I can post this on another thread if a more appropriate thread is out there...

**Edit: thanks for the name change, WhoDo!

There are multiple icon themes out there...just go to kde-look.org or gnome-look.org to find stuff. But Puppy does icons so differently (viva la difference! cut's down on bloat) than everyone else it takes a while to convert stuff from different icon themes to Puppy.

These are mostly from snowish icon theme from kde-look.org, but I've modified sizes, names, added, changed, etc. as needed to fit to puppy's unique style.

Same as last one, just zipped up. Use pupzip, unzip/extract to /usr/local/lib/X11/themes/ and then Snowbound icon theme will be ready to go.

Oh, this is on 4.2 (love that it has "start-button.png" as one of the icons; gives a really nice modification!) with one of dejan555's backgrounds (way to go, dejan!).

*Edit: inspired by dejan (as he's prone to do) I made a pet file of these. it is the first official pet file that I've ever made, so please tell me if it installed well. I'm leaving the zip file there too in case my pet didn't go well...

**Edit again: looks like the pet file worked just great.

Incidentally, if someone has a more efficient way of making puppy icon themes, I think we would all be forever in your dept. As I mentioned, even if one isn't making icons from scratch (which you sometimes must do even if you didn't create the whole theme) it still takes quite a while to modify to meet the puppy protocols, moving, resizing, changing names, etc.

Just thought I'd mention that...

Very excited about this one (well, as excited as one can be about icons)! These are from the infamous (at least in the icon/artistic world) Paul Davey aka mattahan on deviantart. All rights reserved.

I've customized (including a custom menu icon) and modified for Puppy. I hope you like it as much as I do (if so, please post back).

I'm using the blackdog icon theme on dpup, there were just 2 icons I didn't like, the default folder I found to dark and hard drive icon. Other than that its a nice change, i also like the Snowbound icons great work putting the packages together.

A list of choices is not complete without the antithesis of itself. Here is a set of un-icons.
