Wolken007 -----> You need SkinStudio to integrate it into the skin. If you look in the folder where you extracted VistaXP, you should see an Extras folder. Click on it, then Horizontal Shellstyles. You have two files. You have to add the one of your choice (green or blue) into the skin in skinStudio, then save it and apply it again in WB. You should have the horizontal shellstyle. Maybe you'll get a parsing error next time you enter Control Panel. It arrived me the first time I opened it after applying changes but after, it's all good.

Look a few pages back to know how to add a shellstyle in skinstudio, KoL explained it

Thanks man, I appreicate the help.

Ok thanks.

So if the problem is really what you said (about per-pixel borders), I don't have to pay too much attention because my PC will support them in about a week or two...

Yep but even if you card suppot per pixel some programs have that problem. I have seen it in some progress bars in photoshop

Hey KoL, this is Such a Great skin :p

just one thing though, i think the title bar might be a bit too transperant; i don't know you can do the blur effect in wb, i guess not.

also how to change the startbutton in skin studio ?

You need to go to the start button, then on Import > Browse for file and replace it with the startbutton you want.

Great theme! I just have one question...

I am running IE7 Beta 1 on XP SP2, and there is an ugly dark grey color to the right of the tabs...is there anyway to skin this space? or replace the color in the theme?

cant help there plus that program is a beta, dont use IE use Firefox :devil: :devil:

kol i will say this again and sorry if im act like a pain in the "ss but please put a real transparent taskbar!!! please!!! and also "fix" the circle start button so it can be used with the taskbar on the top  thanks

The taskbar is already transprent, is not my fault that WB dont show things behind the taskbar, and the round button work fine with the top taskbar.

Yes, the borders should turn black. That's how Kol has designed the theme.

is there a reason he turned glass off when u maxamize a window? Also when i added the horizontal shell style the pretty please wait messages were replaced by the default windows one... is there a fix for this??

Hi

Kol can windowblinds 5 emulate this vista shellstyle in this pic?

http://www.winmatrix.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6491

Care to give it a go? :)

I agree...a full shell style (top and bottom) would be awesome. Is it possible to have different folders display different colored shell styles in WB5 though? That would be cool.

Here's a little screenie of my computer in 5231:

    • Given only Volume license customers and specific resellers can obtain the LTSC versions legitimately it seems likely that this has been tinkered with quite a lot!
    • Apple CEO Tim Cook confirms looming price hikes due to memory shortages by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Memory and chip shortages have led to significant price increases for electronics over the past year, and it seems that more hikes are on the way for upcoming smartphones and computers. Apple CEO Tim Cook has confirmed that the company is planning to increase the prices of some of its products due to the ongoing memory and storage shortages. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Cook confirmed the looming price hikes for Apple’s future products, adding that “Unfortunately, price increases are unavoidable.” He also said the company is doing its best to “mitigate the huge increases that are being passed to us, and we’ve been trying to shield our customers from the increases, but the situation has become unsustainable.” The Apple CEO also noted that the allocation of a large portion of memory chips to AI companies has contributed to shortages in the market, resulting in lower supply at a time when demand for devices remains high. “We definitely need memory pricing and supply to return to reasonable levels for consumer products. That’s the bottom line,” Cook said. Cook also added that Apple is ready to use its vast cash reserves to help boost supply in the market because additional production capacity is needed. While he declined to specify how Apple plans to do that, he said the company will not build its own memory and storage factories despite its financial resources and silicon expertise. Cook did not provide further details on the scale of the price increases or which Apple products would be affected, though iPads and Macs could see higher prices sooner than other products. Apple’s next product launch event is scheduled for September, when the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable iPhone. It remains unclear whether the upcoming iPhones will be affected by the price increases, but given the current memory shortage, higher prices seem increasingly likely. There is currently no clear timeline for the end of the memory shortage. Samsung, one of the world’s three largest memory chip manufacturers, recently said the shortage could persist for several more years.
    • Downloads does not equal actual usage, even less when the app is pre-installed in some Galaxy phones.
    • +1000 to this, don't understand why they added that margin around the top bar, even the close button is a PITA to click without aiming. Ofc, this is just preview and hopefully they will revert such odd UX decision before hitting final version.
