Thanks a lot.
Here are the latest instructions as edited by yours truly.
#1
Go to http://www.wilsonc.demon.co.uk/d10resourceeditor.htm and download this
app and load it as it says too.
#2
Print this then collect all the bitmaps from the newsgroup there are 4 of
them split up to different posts for you guys
using dial-up.
#3
VERY IMPORTANT!!!
Back up your "PARIS.exe" file to a different location.
#4
Launch "PE Resource Explorer" as app requires then "open" the "PARIS.exe"
file in it.
#5
You will see a folder named "PICT" expand it and find the folders that are
named the same as your downloaded bitmaps and
make sure you did not change the name of the bitmaps in any way.
#6
At the top click on the menu "Resources" and in the drop down menu click
"import image resource". Navigate to one of the
bitmaps you downloaded and choose it. YOU CAN ONLY IMPORT ONE IMAGE AT A
TIME SO DO THIS FOR EACH IMAGE TILL YOU HAVE
IMPORTED ALL 4 BITMAPS.
#7
PE Resource Explorer has created a new folder named "bitmaps" that will contain
the 4 bitmaps in it. You will now expand the
folder of the name of the first bitmap you want to swap out in the "PICT"
folder. Start by selecting the first bitmap in the
"bitmaps" folder, do you remember the name because they have to be the same.
Who knows what will happen if you mix them up.
#8
From the menu select Edit / Select All / Cut
Go to the same named bitmap in the "PICT" folder and select Edit / Select
All / Delete. Then paste the new one.
Do this for all 4 bitmaps.
Then after all the new bitmaps are in place you MUST DELETE THEM from the
"bitmaps" folder that was created.
Do this by clicking on the bitmap in the "bitmaps" folder number "1" and
under the "Resource" menu click "Delete Resource"
and do this till all the bitmaps you imported are gone, including the folder
it created. It MUST look just the way it did
before you imported anything, that means NO "bitmaps" folder anymore.
#9
Save and exit PE Resource Explorer, if upon exit it asks you to save click
"yes". If you did everything right the next time
you launch PARIS it will have a cool new look. If not it will crash and you
should go to the nearest mirror and say in to
it, "You idiot you listened to the elf". Then go back and replace the now
contaminated PARIS.exe with the backup.
Congratulations you are a hacker!

P.S. Got a problem with this and affraid to mess up your warranty or support
(LOL), go home momma's boy or girl!
