kiszmai Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 (edited) [VS] Velox by Ashelion August 2004 For those new to msstyles: You have to patch your system to use msstyle files. You can see instructions and file to use here: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=140707 cancel any windows file protection prompt and allow (click yes) to keep unrecognised file types You do not want or need the uxtheme.dll on your xp disc, that is what your are attempting to overwrite to use the uxtheme that enables visual styles. Give it between 10 seconds- 2 minutes for the windows file protection to appear- sometimes it takes awhile. After you patch and reboot, and download any visual style you would like to use, extract it to C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes and click the msstyle file in the appropriate folder for example, for Velox you go to: C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\Velox and click Velox.msstyle or alternatively, you should find it in the drop down box on the Appearance Tab of display properties in Control Panel, when you correctly extract the file to C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes Dont forget to install any included fonts that come in visual style packages to c:\WINDOWS\Fonts The "Velox" fox character was created and a visual style soon came afterwards. Enjoy!

SpookyET Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 It is cute. However, I am still waiting on a cartoonish visual style that I will actually use. Thus far, I do not like any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raum Posted August 11, 2004 Share Posted August 11, 2004 Well, it's not really my style or something I plan to ever use, but it looks like a well-made theme. I think a little bit more interesting taskbar would compliment everything nicely rather than a solid gray one. Maybe just a slight gradient or something.
