Thanks everyone that you like my work I be really glad to hear that. :)

@strayan: You know that you can change the size of the scrollbars by yourself.

Right click your desktop and choose properties.

Go to the tab when you choose styles and press advanced

Go to scrollbar in the list and change the value to what you want.

nice theme..using it right now.. :woot: , is there a trillian pro skin ? :D

you guys should start using miranda, it takes over the OS's skin

by the way: I'm switching back to that style over and over again. great work! I followed your work from the first screenshots until now. but I have one question though: the dotted arrows you used in the dotted substyles for the systemtray enlargement and on other occasions, can't you make them solid? IMO they look somehow misplaced when dotted :-/

I just have a simple question how do i add this theme to my PC? do i need some sort of program?

Hey just download uxtheme patcher from here and then you need to move the files into C:\Windows\Resources\Themes, e.g.

C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\HmmXP\HmmXP.msstyle

Theres then two ways of choosing the style

  • double click on the .theme or .msstyle file
  • Right-click the desktop > 'Properties' > 'Appearance' and choose the style from the 'Windows and Buttons' drop-down box.

Thanks for the info on the scroll bar style Fug, how simple was that to fix!

I have another issue though:

I use an LCD monitor and allsnap for my window layout. Problem only with codename whistler scheme is that the top of each new window opened is one single row of pixels down from the top of the screen. All the other colour schemes are ok though i.e. they open flush with the top of the screen and don't leave the gap.

    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
    • I have been using Firefox for years.
    • I'd trust open source stuff on github more then closed source binaries from Microsoft.
