Charamel Best Firefox & Thunderbird Theme

I try and check out all the themes for Firefox and Thunderbird that I can, however only one has ever really impressed me. That theme is Charamel.

Charamel Firefox and Thunderbird Theme

This theme has had a lot of work put into it and it’s absolutely beautiful. Everything works together and it’s a joy to use. There are even elements in Thunderbird that appear as if their overlapping other parts of the design and it’s great. Not only is this very sweet eye candy, it’s also been designed to work better than the original theme I believe.

If you are in the market for an excellent Firefox or Thunderbird theme, check out Charamel. By far, it’s the best theme I’ve found.

3 Important useful things for Cell Phone Users

1) Emergency number

The Emergency Number worldwide for Mobile is 112.

If you find yourself out of coverage area of your mobile network and
there is an emergency, dial 112 and the mobile will search any existing
network to establish the emergency number for you, and interestingly...this
number112 can be dialed even while the keypad is locked.

Try it out.

2) Locked the keys in the car? Your car has remote keys?

This may come in handy someday. Good reason to own a cell phone: If you
happen to lock your keys in the car and the spare keys are home, call
someone on your cell phone. Hold your cell phone about a foot from your car
door and have the other person at your home press the unlock button,
holding it near the phone on their end. Your car will unlock. Saves someone
from having to drive your keys to you. Distance is no object. You could be
hundreds of miles away, and if you can reach someone who has the other
"remote" for your car, you can unlock the doors (or the trunk).

Editor's Note: *It works fine! We tried it out and it unlocked our car over
a cell phone!"

3) Hidden Battery power

Imagine your cell battery is very low, u r expecting an important call
and u don't have a charger. Nokia instrument comes with a reserve battery.
To activate, press the keys *3370# Your cell will restart with this
reserve and the instrument will show a 50% increase in battery. This

mathematical love letter

My Dear Love,

Yesterday, I was passing by your rectangular house in
trigonometric
lane. There I saw you with your cute circular face,
conical nose and
spherical eyes, standing in your triangular garden.
Before seeing you
my heart was a null set, but when a vector of
magnitude (likeness) from
your eyes at a deviation of theta radians made a
tangent to my heart, it
differentiated.



My love for you is a quadratic equation with real
roots, which only
you can solve by making good binary relation with me.
The cosine of my
love for you extends to infinity. I promise that I
should not resolve
you into partial functions but if I do so, you can
integrate me by applying
the limits from zero to infinity.You are as essential
to me as an
element of a set. The geometry of my life revolves
around your acute
personality.


My love, if you do not meet me at parabola restaurant
on date 10 at
sunset, when the sun is making an angle of 160
degrees, my heart would
be like a solved polynomial of degree 10. With love
from your higher order
derivatives of maxima and minima, of an unknown
function.


Yours ever loving,
Pythagoras

Using 128x128 32-bit Icons in Windows XP

Warning: This article involves editing your registry. Following these instructions is at your own risk. InterfaceLIFT and Seen Sai Yang are not responsible for any damage you may cause to your system.

Before you begin, you may want to read Using Mac OS X icons under Windows XP.

Windows XP has two settings for icons: normal and large. Normal icons are 32x32 and large icons are 48x48. Use these directions to get 128x128 32-bit icons.

Step 1.

In case you want to revert to your original settings after these icon changes, you may want to use the registry editor and write down the original settings. If you want to save the original settings, read on. If not, got to step 2.

  1. Open the registry editor by going to Start, select Run, type in regedit, and press Enter. With registry editor opened, browse to:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics

  2. Now on the right, scroll to find IconSpacing, IconVerticalspacing, Shell Icon BPP, and Shell Icon Size and write down their settings.

Step 2.

Download and extract 128x128 32-bit Icon.zip to get 128x128 32-bit Icon.reg.

Step 3.

3. Double click on 128x128 32-bit Icon.reg. When the folling message box appears, click Yes to make changes to the registry.

Under [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\WindowMetrics], the following changes will be made to the registry:

  • IconSpacing = -2400
  • IconVerticalspacing = -2400
  • Shell Icon BPP = 32
  • Shell Icon Size = 128

Step 4.

Restart Windows XP and you are finished!

NOTE:

When 128x128 icons are used in Windows XP, the shortcut overlay, which isn't anti-aliased, looks huge and ugly on the icons. To remove them, browse to Microsoft's PowerToys website, and download TweakUI.exe. Install and use TweakUI to remove the shortcut overlay.

Notice also that when you are using 128x128 icons, the icons in the Windows Start menu also change to 128x128. This may cause some icons in the start menu to not show because of space limitations. To fix this, change the standard Windows XP start menu to the classic start menu. To do this, right click on the start menu and select properties. On the Start Menu tab, select Classic Start menu then press OK.

Another way to deal with this situation is to eliminate some icons on the Start menu. Do this by clicking on the Customize... button with Start menu selected on the Start Menu tab. On the Advanced tab in the Start menu items scroll box, select Don¼t display this item for infrequently used items. Press OK when done.

Converting Mac OS X icons to Windows XP

Software

The following is a list of software used in this tutorial. Please download and install these programs under Windows XP before proceeding.

1. Download Icons

Fat-Roll by Matthew Bice

Download a set of Mac OS X icons from InterfaceLIFT.com. For this tutorial, we will download Fat-Roll by Matthew Bice.

Save the file in a temporary or download folder.

2. Setup Stuffit Expander

Options" align="right" border="0" height="180" width="170">

You will need to setup Stuffit Expander to properly extract Macintosh files with resource forks from stuffit archives. If Expander is not setup properly, icons files may have a length of zero bytes after being expanded.

  1. Launch Aladdin Expander
  2. Choose Options from the Edit menu.
  3. Click on the Cross Platform tab.
  4. Chose the following settings:
    1. Convert Text files to Windows Format: Never
    2. Save Macintosh Files in MacBinary Format: Always
    3. Add File Extension: Never
  5. Click OK

This setup process only needs to be done once. You can skip this step the next time you convert Mac OS X icons to the format that Windows XP uses.

3. Extract Icon using Stuffit Expander

Drag and drop the downloaded file 0379_fatroll.sit onto the Stuffit Expander application icon. Extract the icon into the same place where you downloaded the file. Stuffit Expander will create two items: a SIT file called Fat-Roll.sit and a folder called Fat-Roll.

4. Rename Icon

Open the Fat-Roll folder. Inside is a subdirectory called The Icons. Open that folder and you will see 3 files. The file named 'Fat-Roll' is the actual icon file. Rename it to 'Fat-Roll.icns'. If the file already has the .icns extension you can simply leave it alone.

5. Open the Icon in IconWorkshop

If files with the .icns extension are properly recognized by Windows XP, you can simply double-click to open them in IconWorkshop. If not, launch the IconWorkshop program and select Open from the File menu. Locate and open the Fat-Roll.icns file.

6. Save the Icon as a Windows .ICO File

Once Fat-Roll.icns is open, save the file into the .ico format. To do this, select Save As from the File menu and set the Type to .ico. IconWorkshop will save the icon with the alpha channels preserved, allowing for transparency effects.

That is all there is to it! Once Mac OS X icons are converted to the .ico format, they can be used in Windows like any native icon.
