Hey all,
I have recently been trying to customize my Vista RTM to be more Longhornesque.
I have been fooling around with authui.dll, the Vista Orb animation that plays at startup.
I have found that it is not a movie, but rather four PNGs, played in rapid succession.
I have been working on a Longhorn replacement for the Vista Orb.
Attached is a screenshot of one of the four PNGs I created.
When I replaced the resources via PE Explorer and moved my modified authui.dll using my XP partition (unmodifiable in Vista, don't try, I learned the hard way...), my Vista wouldn't boot.
I am still looking for a solution.
I welcome your comments on the image.
Sam
