My Icon for Sleepyhead for all Windoze!

Post by Noddyman » Mon Jul 23, 2012 9:33 pm

Hi all,

(post header edited slightly as it seems is ok for all types of Windows + other OSs)

As a newbie I love Sleepyhead and continue my praises of the author. I love to have icons for shortcuts on my desktop and I am sure that I am not alone. However, Sleepyhead didn't seem to have a native one, so I did a bit of playing around and have tweaked it into a proper icon, but please note that I am only using XP.

You should be able to get it from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?d8vmakox83tn761 (edited Aug 25 2012 to new free download site, please excuse the ads!)

Once you've downloaded it you'll just have to change the icon association in your Sleepyhead shortcut. Generally you will find this available by right clicking the shortcut and going to Properties, where you'll find the option to change the icon. Then just browse to where you have plonked the downloaded icon file. I always put them into the relevant program files folder, but everyone has a personal preference.

Cheers for now,

Nods

I guess it was a 7 day account, it's not working anymore. Do you think you could repost it.

Thanks!

Hi all,
I have renewed the link above. It is a 30 day system, needing at least one download during that time to renew the count. I thought it would likely do that ok with people getting it now and then. I'll try and keep it active, but if it goes again and you need it pls post here as I have an email alert active.
cheers,
Nods

Thank you very much! I was trying to convert it myself the other day (with no luck), when I ran up on your post. I was disappointed when the link didn't work. But, It's working now. Again Thanks!

Hi again all,
I've altered the header slightly as it seems that the icon works ok in all Windows and some other systems. The header previously implied it was only XP, as that is what I use and had tested it on.
cheers,
Nods
