Hello,
My first post and i’m already wishing things
when i create a SFX maybe it would be nice if i could select my own icon to place in front of the exe file instead of the PA icon.

i really dont understand why would you put this into the “what should be next format” in PA thread… this is why we have complete forum section for wishes - so not everything would be together in one post. and you might want to explorer some of the skins, they already have different icons included… it is a bit of work, but it might be worthwile, up to you

I would rather such a system came in the form of a plugin. I have no need to change the icons or use skins and would rather it wasn’t a compulsory part of the program.

@Dipso: Hi, i just noticed that when i use the shell extention item “extract here” on an archive, i don’t get the progressbar in the taskbar on windows7. I love this new feature, and i use the shell extract function a lot to extract archived movies etc, and the visual cue to let me know when i’m done extracting is realy neat. I hope this can get fixed soon. Regards, Dipso. I am glad you reported this as this bugs me as well

I was thinking about upgrading to newest PA version so I installed it for testing. One thing: new icons. They’re too bright (or maybe the saturation level is too big). Look at the attached image and compare newest icons to other, typical icons. Note that the color scheme is totally diferent, they just don’t go to well with each others. Look how the older PA icons (bottom of the image) look good with the others, even the oldest are much better. The contrast with the background is much too low, and on default system color scheme it’s even worse (white background, and very bright yellow icons). Note that none of default Windows icons don’t have such high saturation, they’re all based on the same level. Look at the second screenshot, new icon just doesn’t fit there well. And on the third screenshot you can see that many bright icons near each other can give you a real eyes pain. So I ask you to make an option to choose from oldest, new and newest icon set when making file associations. It just a small tweak, beacuse the icons could be called e.g. 1xx (oldest), 2xx (new), 3xx (newset) in the resources and in that case it’s just a small fix in the registry and everything would work fine.

I would like to see the main PowerArchiver icon colors to get changed slightly. Problem is that in Windows XP explorer uses the same yellow color as PowerArchiver. I can hardly see the difference between the taskbar buttons for a PowerArchiver window and a Windows Explorer window. Here’s a screenshot: Problem is worse on TFT display. The vertical viewing range is limited so details fade out a bit. I think more users have problems with it.
