It's been 2 years since I started making Plex Style for XP. Until now, I created 18 visual styles related to Longhorn. These visual styles are taken from Longhorn Transformation Pack 9 with few fixes. This visual styles pack will install the follow visual styles to your system.

Aero Concepts

Aero Style

Aero Style (Glass)

Aero Style (Vista - Beta 1)

Aero UI (Day)

Aero UI (Night)

Diamond

Jade Style

Longhorn Aero

Luna (Longhorn Revolution)

Plex Style

Plex Style (Media Center Edition)

Royale Glass

Slate Athens

Slate PDC

Slate Refresh

Slate XP

Windows X

You can use UXTheme Multi-Patcher 4.0 to patch uxtheme.dll file to use these visual styles or get StyleXP in case patch fails or you don't know how to use it. You can change visual style by going to Display Properties and click Appearance tab. Select visual style and theme you like and click OK.

I hope it does not kill my OS like the last release.....

Windows X - i really love this VS but I'm having a bug with it. The wording in the Start Menu for the Programs(left panel), is cut off. It shows only half of the programs names.

Example - Maxthon shows hon, PhotoShop CS shows hop CS, etc...

The width of the Start Menu panel is not wrong itself, it's the correct size/width, actually probably wider than i usually see with a VS, it just shows half of the text.

Any ideas on why? I have a 1024X768 resolution.

Also would it be possible to have a gray/silver style of this great VS?

BTW - you were correct about the corrupt download. It worked the second time.

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
