so heres the final version.
thanks to: psycoB, UKintel, Zeusosx, ShamusHand, shifty102, deadpxl and all the others who gave help and support.

Only one thing. If you like it, fav it.

Watch out: this is a one-click installer and will change automatically some dlls and other stuff. Restart your Computer or explorer.exe to see changes.

hope you like it. enjoy

Any real screenshots? You can't really see much on those tiny monitors.
Coffeee
Yeah, as gigapixels said, you can't see anything clearly.
Also, the reflection is wrong on the monitors... and refelction of the base is higher than the actual base wink.gif

heres a screenshot i dont usually like using mac vs but i wanted to try it, it has its own login screen as well but i cant get a ss of that

I need some serious help. I installed this just to try it, thinking I could easily go back. I ended up not liking it. I would REALLY like my logon screen, my ctrl-alt-del screen, my explorer back/forward buttons and anything else that this changed to go back to the Vista default. I see no uninstaller, I feel like this theme was poorly designed and now my beautiful windows theme has been destroyed by something worse than a bad fake of the mac theme. Please help me!

Edit: Solution:

How did you restore them, mixxter? Those are in-use files.

Rename the current files and then rename those backups to the original file names.

That should be all that is needed.

thanks a lot that worked

Really screwed up my system after trying to use regular themes again. Sort of wish it'd give the option to uninstall, revert, or something along those lines. It didn't even make backups for me, so now my original files are lost.

Thanks?

^Think i'll give this a miss.
Thanks.

system restore?

The max/min/close buttons look jagged, I'm not really feeling any similarities with OSX.

Right on. I'm thinking XP would be a better operating system to attempt to emulate OS X on - Vista's just too different. Granted, it's a lot more powerful, but it's way too different.

QFE, continuing the current trend of UGLY Vista themes..

No offence, but it looks pretty bad sick.gif The buttons look like they were cut out with a scissors.

John Caboose
That's a disgrace!
I barely even like the real Aqua but this is just ****ed up, my tip for the creator:
Stop using MS Paint to make skins!
htwho
It looks incomplete.

From the big screenshot posted here it looks awful, but if you look at the comments on deviantART, it seems that everyone likes it confused.gif
BlakByte
