[rel] VistaXP Visual Style


Recommended Posts

Hello Franco,

Just viewed the updated horizontal shellstyle that you will be including with v3, in the WindowBlinds thread...Definately like the look and colour, and hopefully this too will be included with v3 of msstyle?

:laugh:

May even try WB5 however my present older laptop probably could not handle it...lol

Definately a new high performance laptop with dedicated Vid card will be in order when Vista OEM laptops hit the market.

:woot:

Jesus KoL, this v3 release looks really big, I can't wait! I'll probably go into a Vista-ish fase, so I'll install the bricopack, but use this visual style, because of course, you're visual styles always kick-ass!

Jupp, I figured it out, and I managed to create a glass-alike taskbar aswell :D

If I may say so, this is starting to look good :p

(The glassbar is a 2 layer bitmap made in paintshop, of wallpaper and taskbar snapshots. Layer 2 is pasted onto layer 1 with 70% opacity. And then compiled into the msstyle with resedit)

I think I asked this already, but how does one go about installing the icons linked ont he first page?

If u dun have Iconpackager, u can use IconTweaker to replace the Windows Default icons with Vista Beta 1 icon set (search this forum) item by item. Alternatively, u may 1st install Vista Inspirate Shell Pack and apply KoL's VS afterward. Many users prefer the blue icons and shellstyle of the the shell pack.

Sorry guys wait a little. I need to finish two important things before Dec 1 (job and university). I'll start working with the msstyle version next week. I released the WB version because that the theme that I use.

The shellstyles are done and all the graphics are done, I just need to start working with the msstyle format.

@ JohniE: You need a program like, IconPackager, IconTweaker, E-Icons,etc.
