Hi guys I'm new to MorphOS and can't seem to find the answer on google but i'm sure i read somewhere you could do this..
I love MorphOS but i pefer the OS4 look, Is there a icon pack and window and top bar theme pack or patchs for Morphos? if so does anyone have the links thanks heaps!


I did it, but it was a lot of work! For icons, I used what was available from Masons website, OS4 Depot, and painted 40-50 of my own OS4 "lookalike" icons. Unfortunately, the result can't be redistributed for obvious reasons.

I also created a MOS skin called FourOne, but that hasn't been updated since MorphOS 3.1 and I never made it widely available.

MOS has (had?) some icon handling issues that were frustrating me, so I haven't really used it since version 3.1. The new release (with built-in wi-fi support) intrigues me though. Perhaps I'll do a quick install and see if the icon issues have been fixed.

Virus/Malware scanners going off when trying to view those FourOne image files, btw.  Typical favicon.ico stuff.


Anyone else have that problem? Those images on hosted on my own server and don't show as problematic here.

I wonder which one of my icons or screenshots is considered to be the most dangerous? ;)

@duffsta

Actually, you emailed my brother, who has no idea what MorphOS is and thought you were a spambot.  :)

URL Blocked:  http://www.five-star.com/favicon.ico

Chrome blocking the images as well on my other machine, which is not running any virus protection at all.

I have no idea what the problem is with my favicon, but I deleted it anyway (along with the whole site). So, problem solved!

Edit:

@nicholas

Please don't redistribute that theme.

I had asked my brother to look into it and he sent me this screenshot ...


Edit:

Amiga.org shrunk the image down -- its a report showing the site as safe.
