Tried it without Aero and in Windows Classic. Still doesn't work, Constatine.

Well, I thought I was changing the icon of the program but... I guess I wasn't?

This is dumb, but: when you drag something to the start bar to pin it, it copies whatever properties that shortcut has. E.g., the only way for me to get Chrome to launch with user scripts enabled from the start bar was to copy a shortcut there that already had that flag enabled. So maybe try getting rid of your programs, changing all the icons, and then re-adding them? Is that how you already did it?

Well, I did that, but apparently I have to change the exe's icon. Annnnd they don't like it when you try to do that.
Gonna keep trying.

Edit: Well! That didn't work. I think what I need to do is edit the icon inside the exe. Greeaaaat.

I found a program (the only one google recommended) Icon Changer and it didn't change the embedded icon. The help section just said "Try restarting!" That didn't work.
So I tried using Restorator. That worked. Sort of. It made my icons ugly and pixelated versions of what I wanted them to be. And on top of THAT every time I used said program Windows popped up saying "ARE YOU SURE?!" and no matter how many times I told it to run as administrator, it kept asking.

So I will keep trying to figure out a nice way to do this. Found out if I edit a certain reg file I can get it to do ALMOST what I want. It keeps the icons that I choose, but then each addition window of that program open is a little sliver on the side of the button and you have to use Aero Peek to click it. So close, yet so far.

I'll repeat it here from the Good News thread:

If anyone's near these shops, I would appreciate you picking up this magazine for me.

Your shops list link doesn't work in either this page or the next.

... wait, you went to the trouble of posting that but there no Toronto location?

Anyway, I actually wouldn't have had a problem going to a smut or LGBQ bookstore to get you a copy, but I draw the line at buying anything from American Apparel.

Büge · « **Reply #170 on:** November 14, 2009, 08:23:50 AM »

Do you actually think I'd bother posting it if I could get it just a short bus ride away?

I've gone to Toronto for less.

I live close enough to New York to get there eventually if no one else grabs one sooner. The only problem is having to be there with people who I can tell "oh hold on one sec, I need to stop over here to grab a tranny mag."

Büge · « **Reply #172 on:** November 14, 2009, 09:24:41 AM »

A tranny fashion mag.

Anyone with Audacity. I'm having a problem with the recorded audio not converting properly. http://yfrog.com/3maudacityproblemj Is what it comes out like. Could one of you possibly help?

Question

I am looking at starting up a portfolio website, something like my "firstnamelastname".com/.ca, which are both either parked or available in the .com side of the house.

Anyone have any ideas of where they would prefer to do the webhosting?" so far, all I have in mind is hostpapa.ca, which is a pretty lame start.

No, I'm not interested in asking Terra for hosting, nor am I willing to go for free - I have learned in other walks of life that you get what you pay for...

Brentai · « **Reply #175 on:** November 26, 2009, 10:38:57 AM »

My hosting's through A2 Hosting, but they're merely acceptable I find.

yyler · « **Reply #176 on:** November 26, 2009, 10:43:34 AM »

I know a lot of people who like using Site5. I use LunarPages, and I have zero complaints with it.

Just for the love of God do not ever use Dreamhost.

Mongrel · « **Reply #177 on:** November 26, 2009, 12:11:59 PM »

I think I have some domains through dreamhost, but no hosting.

*phew*

bbbut it was like ten bucks for a year!

Lottel · « **Reply #179 on:** November 27, 2009, 09:32:02 PM »

Alrighty. I made a new start button. I didn't like the ones I was using so I figured "Hey. I can make buttons. I make icons and things, how difficult can this be?" So I got to work and made my button and replaced. I got it working buuuut...

It's transparent. Which makes it really hard to see with most backgrounds. And on top of that, there is a black box when I hover over it.

Any one have any ideas?
