[Daninku]

Im getting the following message when tryign to download from Devianart:

The Compressed(zipped) folder is invalid or corrupted

[APL88]

I loved the first one, and now I love you.

Good Themes are hard to find in my humble opinion. Only 5 or 6 have only had long lasting appeal to me, and this is one of them.

OH POOP it is an 11K download and currupted? I hope this is just D-Art errors :(

I am getting a corrupt download!!  :huh:

[alpha_omega]

[+StevoFC MVC]

Great theme..

Can you make one with a normal looking start button as well using a bit slimmer task bar?

[alpha_omega]

Can someone make a screenie with cleartype disabled? It's off on my CRT and I'm wondering how it looks without it before I go through the hassle of patching uxtheme.dll, just to install this vs...

[Daninku]

In the themes folder I can see an element.mssyles which is like 342bytes. We don't have to overwrite that right? Only the one in its folder?

[fegul]

KICK A$$ BUDDY!!! I love this theme so much!

[em3]

You can move the file to which folder you want. Just don't remove it if you dubble click on it and press Apply.

[aggrophobik]

Is there a bug w/ the progress bar? If I run something like CCleaner, the bar doesn't fill all the way up, say @ 100%. Is it just me? Also, not to beat a dead horse, but a VS this slick really should be complimented w/ a proper shellstyle in the future. I'm sure someone wouldn't mind giving it a shot. Just a thought.
