Following positive discussion on -dev, here's the updated version of the PC/py*.ico files I hacked up a while ago. The attachment is a ZIP, not a patch, as it contains only binaries. Also available as tgz: http://doxdesk.com/img/software/py/win32-icons.tar.gz Also possibly of interest: http://doxdesk.com/img/software/py/icons3.zip This attachment contains only the simple replacement files; the icons3 ZIP also contains: - source - versions including Windows Vista large icons (probably not worth including at this point as they're quite sizable and no-one is using Vista yet) - an egg icon (there is currently no installer/shell support for eggs, but could be worth adding in future) - a new installer side banner (this has not currently seen any discussion on -dev, but may be worth considering if the intention is to leave behind the purple/green snake branding) |

Logged In: YES user_id=311085 Sure, no worries. I'll fax over the -python version since I have ancient contributions to cover too. |

Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Thanks for the patch. I have committed it as r46063. I put a demo installer containing them at http://www.dcl.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/home/loewis/python-2.5.13290.msi I would also like to add the source files, but I have difficulties figuring out what they are. There is a source directory; with: - baselogo.svg; I assume this is a source file - icons.svgz; can't figure out what this is - source.xar; not sure either - a directory called png, with many png file - I expect that these aren't source files, are they? |

Logged In: YES user_id=311085 > I put a demo installer containing them Seems to work OK. The thanks at the end still attributes the graphic to Erik though; I'm not after an ack there myself, but changing the text to not imply the current graphic is his one may be appropriate. > baselogo.svg; I assume this is a source file Yes. This is just the Python logo itself (the gradient version as used on the new website), in vector format. > icons.svgz; can't figure out what this is Same as source.xar, but exported as W3C standard SVG format for wider compatibility [compressed, hence the 'z']. Unfortunately because SVG cannot reproduce some of effects used, and because the SVG export path is currently quite bad, it's not really directly usable, but it might be of use to anyone who wants to hack on the graphics but doesn't use Xara. > source.xar; not sure either This is the primary vector graphics source of the icons - the other SVG and PNG files are just there because other people requested them. It's in Xara format, a previously proprietary graphics application which has now gone open-source and is heading rapidly towards being usable on Linux, but isn't quite there yet. > a directory called png, with many png file - I expect > that these aren't source files, are they? Nope, they're just exactly the same content as in the (with-vista) .ico files, just supplied as PNG for anyone who wants to fiddle with them in a more accessible bitmap format. |

Logged In: YES user_id=21627 Ok, I will then do the following changes still: - add baselogo.svg and source.xar (ignore all the other files), - remove the attribution for Erik (sorry for missing that) |

Logged In: YES user_id=311085 No probs and ta! However... I've got more altered icons, attached and at http://doxdesk.com/img/software/py/win32-icons2.zip . Sorry for the inconvenience - pretty sure these are 'final'. The problem with the old files? Well it seems there's a bug in Windows that can cause redraw errors on 32-bit alpha-blended XP icons. I can't find any doc on this at all, but from experiment it seems that it can occur when icons are partially redrawn instead of drawn all at once. This is most easily provoked by slowly dragging a window on top of an Explorer window in Tiles/Icons/List mode, to reveal the icon underneath. It looks to be an arithmetic overflow in compositing: when a nearly-transparent white pixel being plotted onto pure white background in this partial-redraw code, a black pixel can unexpectedly result, with poor-looking results. (Thanks, Windows.) I've hacked the bitmaps to avoid places where they're white-and-transparent enough to be able to provoke this aggravating occasional behaviour. Also while I'm at it, I've removed the 256 colour 48x48 icons, since it saves a few K and there's almost no practical case where they're of benefit. cheers, |

Logged In: YES user_id=311085 Oh! Sorry - it's there now, and attached, as I had meant to do originally. No changes to any of the source files, as it's purely a .ICO-level fix. Cheers, |
