He is sleeping. He lives in Thailand. He's awake in the morning and evening over here in the US.

Just wondering :huh: are you going to make the headders for the files look like these ones in longhorn?

and hey what are the system requirements for MS longhorn, which i dont have :whistle:

Requirements ? I can only tell you that a 700 Mhz celeron won't run fine... Like, no.

(tis what I have now..)

Oldcrowe, I dont expect you to distribute the theme you made or anything, because you said you wouldnt

any chance you could upload the shell32 though? Those blue Icons would cap this off for me personally.

LOL, I'm having a go at installing 4051 on a virtual PC on a 366 MHz Celeron. Someone wish me good luck! ;)

The Icons are the Chaninja Subzero style icons for iconpackager you can get them here at wincustomize

http://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?libr...y=2&SkinID=1019

They go real well with tiger2k's blue styles too;))

i know there is a chaninja shell32 topic in here somewhere too, you might see about a shell32 download from there

the explorer toolbar icons are the defalut blue longhorn style for Y'x Toolbar you can get them here at my site

http://www.crescent-pc.com/eyecandyXP/inde...ex.php?a=extras

I have a new toolbar icon set with the aero back and forward buttons in it ill put it on my site as soon as i get the new favorites icon to add to it .. ill have to ask WindowsX for it cuz i know he's got them;))

:DD

366 Celeron? How about I try it on a Pentium 3 350 with 128Mb Ram, No external video card and co-exist it with XP. We'll see who has the better screwed up computer.

Back on topic: I love the theme and it's my default theme. Can't wait for more of it. I'm drooling.

I like the slate style, when can we get the final, seeing how this is beta?

[M118LR]

WindowsX two things the text in the toolbars is white and in screenshots like "Control Panel" the background color for the Explorer Toolbar is blue-grey not slate.

Good Luck

err.. I dont believe that you will be able to install it on VPC. From what I have heard, it hangs up @ hardware detection stage. Dunno. IT will work on vmware tho

[darkmark327]

Are there any new sounds/cursors in Longhorn?

new icons. cursors and sounds are usually only included in the last betas

I found that out the hard way. :( Tomorrow I might try the VMWare trial though!

[digidep]

[darkmark327]

Can't wait for more of it.

Hmmm.... Let me clear about this.. Blue Slate theme will appear in release so don't worry about it. For TextColor, as I told you that's beta which I didn't do anything much for more details like color. And for menu, I have to keep it black for text but I'll turn menu background to white. THIS SLATE IS BETA AND RELEASE WON'T BE LIKE THAT!

For ToolBar Background, you know that it's impossible to use ImageCount in that. So you need to make a choice.

Choice A: Keep ToolBar Background as beta for best inactive caption and frameborder.

Choice B: Make Toolbar background suited with Caption Bar but cost with all inactive images in caption and frameborder. Frameborder won't change when inactive and captionbar is almost same to active mode because I have to make bottom looks like toolbar background.

Do you still want me to make it like that?

[Osiris]

Id just like it kept however it is now!!!!

(exclamation marks were used to add emphasis, no negative approach intended)

keep up the skinnin :)

[XeloNXP]

Hey, can you PLEASE PLEASE make a thin taskbar? and maybe redo it a bit, make it more CUTE! if not that, just make a thin version please, (but I really do think the taskbar needs some work!

[M118LR]

Could you show a screenshot of choice A and choice B. It would be easier to choose if we had something to look at.

[Windows X]

Thin? I won't cuz it's not Slate or Luna tone.

For Choice....

A: Which one you're using it

B: Which one you posted

[XeloNXP]

Okay.... Are you doing this "visual style" for fun? or because the people would like to have a "longhorn, visual style"? because if it's both, then you would do a thin version because a lot of people would like that.... THINK of the PEOPLE!
