[rel] VistaXP Visual Style


Recommended Posts

This is a small error that I think only pertains to Firefox. I noticed that when I scroll down the scrollbar the blank space above and below overdraws itself 1 pixel outside making it look kind of funny.

I can live with it, but I'll be your mail order wife if its easy enough to fix. :p

We :heart: you kol

Been using it since day one with no change...

And here is another small one I just added. It under/overdraws when the start menu turns into a second frame.

This VS is very nice! The only problem I am having is with Office 2003 where the toolbars loose the rounded backgrounds when this VS is applied

I'll keep this start button. If I make the startbutton to show the word "Start" it will show the xp flag too, and I dont want the theme with that flag. Sorry.

Kol, could you send me the art you used in the WindowsBlinds version for the logoff/shutdown screen? I want to reshack msgina.dll to make my dialogs fit with the theme.

EDIT: Nevermind, took them directly from the WBA file.

nice theme... i've been using the black version for a couple of days now, and it's still there... usually i get sick of dark themes in about a day or so...

could use a more polished shellstyle, but other than that it's definitely good... some minor bugs, but nothing major that hinders productivity...

light blue captions take a little getting used to, and i had to change the window background to white... progress bars take some getting used to... my other machine runs the luna elements 3 theme which has just the nicest progress bars... would strongly suggest "ripping these off"...

If I knew how to create a shellstyle that resembles the way it is in Vista, I would do it so people could just replace the shell for the theme. I have done it for the dark themes, but the silver one doesn't look good because the borders for it are black and it looks out of place. Jemaho did a nice job with his version, but I think a few things in the one KoL did are cleaner and more streamlined.

The only disappointment I have with the newer visual styles is that hardly anyone adds the new style shellstyle to them like Jemaho did with his. I prefer having them at the top to give me more window real estate :)

KoL are you planning an update to your VS? or is that it? I'm not complaining, I really like it. With Nvidia transparency and a system tray clock mod, and using iconpackager to do Vista icons, things look really good now.

I dont think you'll see one of my themes with top shellstyle. I dont like how it looks. The only theme that I included a top shellstyle was my other port of Longhorn and it wasnt the main shellstyle.

Bug Fixes for one thing. Read the entire post before you go rolling your eyes :rolleyes:
