both sites and download work fine here. :/

I just love this theme, the only drawback for me is that a compact taskbar version is not there, i read earlier that Kol's not planning to release one either :wacko: (I wouldn?t want a compact taskbar if it wasn?t for my laptop's crappy resolution:cry:cry:

Still, this is the best theme that?s out t:Dre :D

This now looks very very impressive, Amazing work indeed. Can't wait to get home and try it on WB5 b1, but I've only just got here - 8 hours to go.

On a side note, I'm assuming the icons in the preview screenshot do not come with the theme, so where can I get them from? Are they single icons, or as an IP pack?

Thanks

Nick

IIRC the icons should be Minium. No IP pack yet.

It's not those nope, I mean the icons on the preview of this theme. They are a Vista icon set, but better then I've seen around so far.

The icons on this screenshot...

Any info anyone? I've had a few Vista icon packs, but this one seems to have a much nicer feel to it, the network connections icon on the start menu is not one I've seen before. Thanks.

The true Vista flag certainly gives it a nice touch to the start button, its all warm and cosy now!

So did KoL get a new graphics card then? from his previous issues of it not working...

Hehehe No I cant get the glass effect on the windows borders. I really dont know why, people with old 32MB cards can get it and my Radeon 9250 1280MB cant :(

I tested the skin on my dad's computer and Septimus and Woodbrige help me too. I thik I spent more time in the preview than the theme hehehe :laugh:

The transparent part in the windoows on the preview is part Septimus and part my dad's computer. Everything else is my computer.

I hope I cant get the effect in the future.

Hey KoL or anyone else present:

I've got a minor issue but I do hope it will be addressed. :)

Here is what my font looks like after applying the newest update of VistaXP.

Same goes to my other fonts in Windows Explorer as well as in Internet Explorer.

If possible, I would like to let the fonts to remain default as it is (Windows XP default) but at the same time, using KoL's VistaXP theme.

Thanks

Regards,

Dave

That looks like he has cleartype on, his fonts would be incredibly ragged if it was off.

Firefox is using a font like Gorgia maybe... quite skinny and caligraphy like.

    • Maybe it's just my old-school soul talking, but I’ve always felt that games aren't 'real' games until they hit the PC. Leaving the PC community out at launch just doesn't sit right with me. That being said, I'm probably going to buy the PS5 just for the fun of trying it out.

    • Rockstar confirms Grand Theft Auto VI pre-orders begin next week, unveils cover art by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The release date of Grand Theft Auto VI has moved quite a lot since its original announcement in 2023, but it finally looks like the game has found its final launch slot. Rockstar today had a new video upload on its YouTube channel, and while it wasn't a new trailer for the game, the company revealed two things. This was the pre-order kickoff date for Grand Theft Auto VI as well as the game's official cover art. The company revealed that June 25 is when fans of the series will be able to pre-order their copy of Grand Theft Auto VI. Pre-orders will be available both digitally and in retail stores. The newly unveiled cover art shows off the two new protagonists, as well as a few more characters that are probably vital to the campaign storyline. Shots of vehicles players can use like a light helicopter, motorcycle, sports car, and speed boat are also seen here, alongside a shot of a crocodile. "Jason and Lucia have always known the deck is stacked against them," says Rockstar describing the campaign's protagonist duo. "But when an easy score goes wrong, they find themselves on the darkest side of the sunniest place in America, in the middle of a conspiracy stretching across the state of Leonida — forced to rely on each other more than ever if they want to make it out alive." Grand Theft Auto VI is coming to Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 on November 19, 2026. A PC version has not been confirmed yet, though it's expected by many to land after the console release. When asked about this, the Take-Two CEO says it considers the core audience for the Grand Theft Auto franchise to be on consoles.
