any ideas on how i could add the windows flag (the cool one from the screenshot) to the menu? I tried, but Windows stretches the background image. maybe if i enlarged the background image of the bar?

you also have to set the sizing margins outside of the flag itself of it will get stretched so size it on one side or the other or the top of bottom

how would i do that? also, in the logoff area, how do i change it from turn off computer to just turn off?

Using reshacker. It's really easy, just can't remember the file you need to edit :) I'm sure it'll come to me, or someone will post..

ok, the turn off problem is solved, but i still cant figure out the flag thing. here's what the 'theme' is looking like now. i'm starting to give up on trying to copy the screenshot, i just want to turn it into a really nice theme. (oh, and i can't, well wont, install stylebuilder because you have to have style xp, and that screwed my comp last time)

Windows X thinks its ugly cos he cant stand his themes being out of the limelite...

slate is olllld news anyways...

He thinks its Ugly cuz it is UGLY :p

but there seems to be lots of interest in the longhorn styles so he makes that fantastic transformation pack!

And has nothing to do with being in the limelite, he just doesnt see the point in doing things twice which is what it ammounts to if he and I are both doing the same style ..

He and I correspond and collaborate on longhorn styles and as a rule I try not to step on his toes by doing my own longhorn styles or at least advertising them here in neowin.

however i had not even seen that crappy screenshot of the dark aero startmenu till this topic was started (im not a big fan of the way longhorns gui is headding so i try to ignore it)

but that black startmenu got me thinking it so ugly by itself that it almost had to be designed to have the transparency effect in mind, thats why i put this one out .. its an excersize in designing a style for desktop transparency!

the next step would be to actually design a style with transparency in mind that actually looks really good :D

Anyway I seperated the slate/aero style from my big slate style so this little concept style is now by itself in a nice small download

also changed out the logoff and shutdown buttons for round ones like the screehshots

it is possible for you to add up both the "LonghornPDC" and " LonghornPDCAero" in one big theme?i like the start menu of Aero but i like the windows shell style of indigo...so it would be great if u can put up all of tht in 1 theme pack, as off i use aero one but i dnt got tht indego shell style...

thnx!,
