Here are some DLL files from 4051 that contain more icon's and bitmaps incase Windows_X or anyone else can use them.. The zip file includes:

basebrd.dll

browseui.dll

imageres.dll

and sidebardata.txt - just some sidebar tile code that I came across and thought someone might wanna mess around with it.

Download them HERE

can you post the Explorer.exe? :ninja:

because that is a shot of aero...note the trans in the bottom in the bottom right corner and the cool gradients everywhere...and as far as i know, current VS building software wouldn't let you make a title bar like that with the PNG's ...i could be wrong however. ;)

[edit] thank god they are finally switching to high res PNG's ;) ;) [/edit]

Well yeah okay, but you can still make the blue interface with those square close, min and max buttons and stuff.... :laugh: And as for the transparancy you can use a app to do that ;)

dunno if this'll help, but here's the slate.msstyles file from longhorn 4051.

Just a heads up - IT DOESN'T WORK ON XP by itself, but it has most of the slate theme inside.

doesnt work by its self? what else do i need? :p

This theme is superb, seriously, I'm impressed how quickly and effectively you did this WindowsX.

Anyone find the black clashes with Neowin somewhat? Blue will be better, I think.

PS: WindowsX: If you're tired go sleep for a while. Your health is way more important than some theme, and I don't think sleeping for two hours a day is really too good an idea.

Well, I just searched through the DLL's and explorer.exe that have been posted in this thread, and there's nothing really exciting in any of them.

Here's what I found that was kinda neat:

- some icons were rendered huge, lik 256x256 or bigger.

- there seem to be icons corresponding to stacks of documents. Perhaps this relates to MS's implementation of 'stacks' that was posted on the front page?

That's about it. Nothing else seemed changed from the XP files.

    • Wow, imagine you dump hundreds of hours into completing things and unlocking stuff and you lose it all. Back in the day when cheats were built into games, you could at least unlock things again that way without spending hundreds of hours again. But those days are long gone for some reason as no one builds cheats into games anymore. So it's even more painful that studio that's on its 6th installment **** it up so badly.
    • Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update by Ivan Jenic Image: Spotify Spotify has just released an update that removes its now infamous disco ball icon. The update reverts the app icon to the familiar flat green logo after weeks of mixed reactions online. The icon arrived on May 13 as part of the company's 20th anniversary celebration and was always intended to be temporary, though Spotify only confirmed that after the backlash started. The disco ball took the internet by storm, as the reception was split. A vocal group of users called it ugly and disorienting, with some iOS users noting that the 3D glowing effect made the app look like it was stuck mid-update. On the other end, the icon picked up a following of its own. Its retro, three-dimensional look immediately stood out against the flat, minimalist aesthetic that has dominated app design for years. It even started a small movement, spawning what people started calling "discomorphism," a mashup of disco and skeuomorphism. Other brands started posting disco ball versions of their own logos, probably in an effort to ride the wave of memes that flooded the internet during late May. Spotify has had a turbulent relationship with its user base lately. Besides the disco ball icon, which certainly wasn't appreciated by everyone, the company has also received backlash for its willingness to include AI-generated music on its platform. On May 17, Spotify promised the old icon would return “in a few weeks.” And now it looks like that time has finally arrived. So, whether you liked the disco ball or it made you uncomfortable, it’s now gone for good. The next time you update the Spotify app on your phone, the old, flat-design icon will return.
