this theme is alright...lol it's look sweeetttt

Those arrows are found in shell32.dll

All I did was replace my shell32.dll with the Bluecurve one Rivak made. You can try Yztoolbar if you want an easier way to change the explorer toolbar buttons.



Did you reboot after installing it? All you really have to do is logoff and then back on to see the changes.

colors request (plz!):
silver

Ohh, this theme is absolutely GODLY.
If i could have some assitance in changing something though, i would be much happier with it..

When you have the taskbar at the top of the screen (its how i like it on thin taskbars) it looks like the item on the bar is not exactly centered as it is when the taskbar is on the bottom of the screen.. see pic for more clarification..

if this isnt a bug, i would really appreciate someone assisting me in fixing this, i have styleBuilder and whatnot, and pretty good computer experience.

Hmm, this theme is awsome! After some major tweaking I got this: http://fusionsix.metabong.com/images/scree...ts/031503-3.jpg [1600x1200, no 56k!]. I'm really happy with it, although if anyone can tell me where I can find some of those Bluecurve icons that go with it, I'd be really happy! PM me if you know, I can't find them on neowin when I search....

^ how did u get the playlist in winamp skined?

Murdoc: Thanks, that'll be fixed in the update.

mxp: The playlist is always skinned, for each color.

ElementWRX: Nice screenshot, what exactly did you tweak though? Search again for Bluecurve, I got 3 pages worth of results.

I am not having a problem with the shell32.dll, its the shpalyer.dll (the WIndows Media minimized skin).

What is the font used on the wallpapers?

Wolvereen: I was responding to this post you made..


and I did answer your question about shplayer.dll. You do know that you need to have Microsoft's Powertoys installed to use those shplayer.dll files?

ORPHIC: Hooge 05_54

Thnx...

Oop, sorry!

I have Powertoys for WM9 installed. Is it that, or Powertoys for XP?

TIA!

:-)

Amazing work btw, I am completely captivated...just replaced my shell32.dll.

Out of curiosity, what do you reccomend for replacing icons? I have hords of them from the Bluecurve set I want to use...

Thansk again!

xD I found the icons in some other thread already. I didn't tweak too much seeing as I'm a newbie to this stuff and I don't wanna mess up my computer. I changed the wallpaper that came with it (w00t) and basically skinned everything with this minimalistic stuff...Boy you shoulda seen my desktop before i did this

Here is an Elizabeth Hurley 1280x1024 Classix - Ergonomic Wallpaper I just now finished...I had a little trouble smoothing out her edges in some areas; but, I have it set as my wallpaper and I think it looks ok.

I'm reposting my AIM login hack... A few people have PM'd me asking how to do it exactly...

1. Open ResHacker
2. Load AimRes.dll
3. Find and expand the GIFDATA tree
4. Locate 103
5. Right-click 1033 and select Replace Resource...
6. Refer to the image below:



7. Save.

And again, here is the image:



If you'd like more colors, I'll do per request.. or you can do it yourselves even

i'll be in heaven when the new update comes out (no pic in the start menu) - please let it be soon

never thougth I'd become a minimalistic fan, too ;-)

this theme definitely kicks ass, I am using the ergo color.

is there a suitable trillian pro skin somwhere around? or are u going to create one?
and what about a samurize skin?

Best regards
Korben

there is a trillian pro skin here and a samurize skin somewhere

man, that was fast!
thanx alot cody!

only samurize skin missing ;-)

ur going to kill me korbendallas ... http://www.alexkelm.com/Samurize/Classix/Classix.exe there is samurize dont know how done it is...i dont use it....

well, doesn't look too bad at all! will try it when I am @ home.

why should I kill u? THANKS again! can't believe how long I was searching, I should have asked here earlier ;-)

Anyone out there willing to give me a little help?

I've followed the instructions which told me to "install this Visual Style simply copy the folders named 'Classix' and 'ClassixSD' to your 'C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes' folder. Installing the included font is optional" but when I go to change my visual style through Display in Control Pannel I don't have the option to change...

Do I need to make these changes using a program like StyleXP or am I missing a step here...

Thanks in advance

try going into the Resources folder and double-clicking on the .msstyles file

i think using the display options will only show .theme files

no i mean ur going to kill me bc im going to pass out of exaustion from finding the links for you

me hands over a refreshing cold bottle of coke/beer to cody. ;-)

Damn you people totally destroyed my bandwidth for this month, awesome Nearly 2,000 people downloaded Classix on March 11th alone, that just about did it right there hehe. So what I'm trying to say is.. I need someone to host Classix, I didn't want to bother anyone but I guess I have no choice now. If anyone would be kind enough to do this, let me know.

Wolvereen: I use IconPackager by Stardock to replace my icons, it's the best that I've seen.

ORPHlC: I'm not a fan of having half-naked ladies on my desktop but you did a good job with that and she certainly does look tasty.

Stunod7: Did you patch your uxtheme.dll file or alternatively you could use StyleXP, either one will do. It should be showing in the Appearance tab under 'Windows and buttons'. If you still can't get it to work let me know I'll try to help some more.

korbendallas: There used to be a thread for a Samurize skin for Classix, I think it was lost in the fiasco. If someone has a copy maybe they can post it.

is there a place I can download the iconpackager theme for classik?

I've got a question is there anyway to hack this : *the blue & everything in the middle of the window so it all matchs* I've always wonderd that *takes a screenshot* that's what I mean the turn off computer...ect...and that window.

giga, I can mirror it if you'd like. I doubt I could handle being the main host though... About how much bandwidth was used during the month?

Gigatexel: I did not patch the file - are there instructions out there explaining how? I'd like to stay away from StyleXP

ahhhhh...I was too late, the links are down
anyone got a link for both thin and regular versions
full package?

Thanx

Thanks jest. So far for the month of March it's 1.4 gigs, I used up 1 gig in 2 days on the 10th and 11th when I released the new version. If you can mirror that'd be great but let me know if it's too much, I don't want to steal all of your bandwidth.

Stunod7: Replace your uxtheme.dll with the one I've attached, you'll have to go into Safe Mode to do it. You'll find it in 'C:\WINDOWS\system32'.

ill also mirror ur next version

Since I can't edit my post for some reason, here are all the colors for your AIM login:




I hope some of you make use of these... Enjoy.

That should be fine giga. I've got 25GB/month and I use less than 100mb of it right now (on average).

If you can e-mail me the latest RAR files I'll upload them and post the links. I'd do it myself but I delete the RAR's after extracting the files.

I'll also mirror them if you like.

Gigatexel -

Forgive me my ignorance...I reinstalled Plus for WMP9, but I still don't know what to do with the shplayer.dll. Its still sitting in my windows/system32 dir, but I still have the garrish default imimized player....

Any advice woudl be appreciated. Thanks!

I can mirror them also if needed. Just send me an email at irasnyd@athlonoc.com and I'd be glad to get them up.

irasnyd

If you have not installed the shellplayer previously, install the shellplayer then right click on your taskbar and choose audio player and to use your shplayer.dll just replace the one in your system32 folder. If the audio player is not in the taskbar menu, right click and choose install on the shellplayer config file next to the shplayer.dll in your system32 folder.

i could mirror if you really needed it but i only have 4gb/month...how much did you have that one day gigetexel?

:| :| :| :|


mirror..........................

Thanks dude, do you think I could FXP it to your site? That'd be much easier and faster than emailing it to you. Thank you everyone who offered to mirror, I really appreciate it. I think jest should be able to handle the bandwidth.

very very nice. awaiting to try the style.

We're sorry - this page is temporarily unavailable.

Hey, this page has exceeded its bandwidth for this month!
Please check back at the beginning of the month when it will be available again.


noooooooooo

got that too

i want winamp skins...

I'm a goober. I thought it was a shell player for Windows Media Player? Not a seperate standalone player.

My bad! Thanks though!

Classix (thin taskbar)
Classix Winamp Skins

Will probably take this down when the real mirror goes up, but I have plenty of bandwidth so don't worry about it for now

Unfortunately I don't have a copy of the non-thin version.

art

Ahhh thanks Art

goes off to cry.
i can host tooo remember. saint-dark has account info if you want it giga i will PM it to you.
