This is a Windows Classic theme modification with smother edges, smoother colors(and smoother font).
Font is corbel and alternate fonts are tahoma and segoe ui.
Compact and normal start menu .

--------------Update1-------------------------
Following Suicide advice i have added another color scheme: for those who prefer a more classic look i substituted orange color with blue and changed logoff and shutdown buttons

Cheers for this, great theme

Nice, thanks!

hey sisiphus!

It was my pleasure to be the first who have the visual style as a tester
I think that this is the most beautiful classic visual style ever! amazing...

Best wishes,
zach.

very nice work ! fav on DA

nice one, made me switch

great theme ! makes me wish i still had xp installed

....Uhm doesn't work properly with Opera 9.10.

looks ok for me, but font is too small even for my 1280x1024 lcd.
also i think CLASSIC should have TAHOMA option as well as not to have linuxish ORANGE color in it (should be replaced with blue imo)
nice theme nevertheless, still being not pretty usable for me.

You have on large fonts the option: tahoma 8 pt and on extra large fonts the option: segoe ui 8 pt...
As for orange color i´m thinking on more color schemes...un update maybe

got it! thanks! keep up updating and good work!

Nice job. The colors go well together. Classic look with a face lift!
Thanks!

kewl theme

Great! Thanks!

There is a small bug with the font selection. If you choose large fonts IE 6 still uses Corbel. Maybe you didn't change all references?

Thanks for your nice feedback...glad you like the theme.

I fixed that small bug...you can download again the file

Loving those classic styles

I still get the version from the 13th...

There's a bug in the taskbar also, when you right click on the taskbar and uncheck "Lock The Taskbar" and bring one of the sections of the taskbar, let's say "Quick Launch" on the other side, the scrolling thing isn't skinned.

thought you might wanna know.

Fixed

I don´t get it...no prob with tahoma on my IE6 (I had this toolbar font bug wich i have fixed)..you can see here:

Best remade Windows Classic theme ever
Nice work man, love it.

Yes, overall it is a good visual style, except for one annoyance, the extra wide gap between the min/max button and the close button. Other than that, it's like being on Windows 95 again.

Enable your toolbar icon text and you will see it. I've openend the vs with ResEdit and there are a lot of references to Corbel in the other two substyles. Changed it with Search And Replace and everything's fine now...

Added two substyles and upon request added other VS with alternate start button for portuguese language

Nice update, this will be longtime my default theme

Nice work! Lovin' the classic style.

Thanks!

hey dude,
keep on great updates!
and read my mail.

hi thanks for the great theme

but im having some proplems with it in windows media player classic and maxthon. Can u check them out ?

here is what i mean.

Are you using the beta version?cause with that version i found nothing.
if you are not using beta i really think it´s a maxthon bug ...i checked VS and everything´s fine ..see here

imp not using the beta 2 or maxthon 2.0 Just using 1.5.9 (build80)

This is a great theme. The only thing I would change is the minimize and expand buttons to the line and box from the normal classic theme.

Last update 19.03.07
Ok, so i decided to change position of the caption buttons so the VS looks more like the original windows classic

Everything old is new again. I like it.

it look like a tango theme.
good job!!!

I love this theme, really makes me want to go classic again... Hmm

J.

My favourite theme in the world. Awesome work !

Using it. Thanks.

I like it, but it's too much beveled for my everyday use.

I like the style man. Thanks for the hard work
