Metro Skin for Calibre
Big Thanks to Kiwi Dude for configuring his plugins to use the "resources image folder". This allows plugin icons to be skinned just once and then remain the same whenever you update your plugins.

Much better (although I replaced the tiny URLs with the full links - we have a policy against using tint URLs)!

Once again thanks to KiwiDude for his modified plugin code and to Yankoa on Deviant Art for allowing the use of his wonderful Metro Icons. And off course Kovid for creating this awesome program.
Main GUI skin is complete. The following Plugin images are also included: Book Sync Devices Extract ISBN Generate Cover Goodreads Sync Plugin Updater Quality Check Search The Internet View Manager. 1. Back Up you existing AppData/Roaming/calibre/Resources folder. 2. Extract the zip file to your AppData/Roaming/calibre/Resources folder. 3. Restart Calibre 4. Enjoy. Note: I did not skin any plug-in icons that are tiny (32x32) as it did not look good. Cheers. |

Very cool. Thanks.
Wish there was an easy way to change the colours for the rest of the GUI in the Windows version. Unless there is something new I missed along the way. |

A very nice-looking icon set, although I personally prefer the default- that might be a case of what I'm used to, though
 One thing you may want to look into: On Win XP, the tray icon didn't show for me, although I suspect that's because I'm using a display theme that has black title and task bars. It would help, though, to have a white border on that icon. Another thing: The splash screen is broken, as in the status text Calibre displays writes on the image. I think you need to put a little blank space in there.
