thinkpad desktop icons. please read! i need your help
Hi. Can someone either upload or email me the three Lenovo icons included on the new ThinkPad desktops by default?
I am referring to the black circles with:
Recycle bin full/ empty, and computer?
I would Really appreciate it and will remember with karma! Anyone, please take just a moment to help me out?

Re: thinkpad desktop icons. please read! i need your help
I had to do a clean install of just Vista and then downloaded everything, one-by-one I might add, with System Update no longer working. But alas, now I am just missing the icons, and I liked them.
Can anyone take just a minute or two and upload or email me the three icons? I swear I would SO appreciate it. and i will return the favor in any way i can help someone out here.
Thanks! Bryan

I didn't know about these customized icons. I think they can be seen here:

I would be interested too in getting them.

Re: thinkpad desktop icons. please read! i need your help
I think i found out how to get it:
Windows vista:
Rightclick the desktop, Personalize. Tasks on the left, select Change desktop icons. Select any of the icons that are the new ones (computer, for example), and click change icon. Copy the link under "Look for icons in this file:" and that should be the link to the images. It may be in a .dll format, from which you can extract the icons with iconsextract, though a .dll is probably a better container to keep the files in
I'd be interested in these icons as well.

I guess you missed this earlier thread.

Unfortunately, I didn't have the PC icon to post then. HarryC, can you upload it to picpanda.com or another free icon host so we can all use it? Maybe if anyone else has that, or any other new additions from Lenovo, they can upload them as well for us to enjoy.
Thanks!

Re: thinkpad desktop icons. please read! i need your help
I just hope someone can upload the icon file itself.
By the way, to anyone who has it showing on your desktop, you can find the file by right-clicking on your desktop, choosing personalize, then choose "change desktop icons" on the upper left. Then click on "My Computer" and then "Change Icon". You don't have to change it, just copy the address in the bar and pop that into the upload field on www.picpanda.com to upload it. Then you can paste the link to either thread.

Re: thinkpad desktop icons. please read! i need your help
Hey guys. Harry was awesome enough to email them to me in .icon format. Private Message me on here with your email address and I can send them to you. Cheers!
Re: thinkpad desktop icons. please read! i need your help
Bryan, could you also upload them to www.picpanda.com ? It's a free host, and you could post those links here as well.
I''ll PM you either way.

I did. I haven't been on my T400 in several days though. Next time I start it up I will post them.

Thanks Harry.
For a second I worried I was being given the silent treatment for some forgotten infraction.

Thanks!
If you see any others in the folder those were in that also look new, please consider uploading them as well.
EDIT: I can't believe they left out the trackpoint! Anyhow, I added it in to all resolutions for those who want it.

Sorry about the filenames. This is the only free icon host I know. (You can rename them back)
