Cheers, worked like a charm. Do you also know how to install the icons from the first post?

1, U can replace most icons one by one manualy.

2, U may use IconPackager to replace all of them one by one.

3, U may use IconPackager to replace all of them by vista iconpackage (.ip or .iptheme) created by others.

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:

That's awesome.

I used to try to make that by modiying shellstyles. But the problem is u can have only one of them showing info at a time. Top or Bottom? ur choice.

Is it possible to use this on the skin:

WB5_longhorn.JPG

ive used that one before, and wanted the same effect in my documents etc.

i have WB5 and skinstudio, but i have no clue how to import the style.

Tools > WindowBlinds > Import shell style file, i dont see any import shell style in skinstudio

Go to Tools -> WindowBlinds -> Open current skin

Then Tools -> WindowBlinds -> Import shell style file

Then press Shift+F9 to apply.

Could somebody please tell me step by step how to import all the Vista Icons available in the first post of this topic?

ok, i got to load the msstyle, but i think i just messed it up. Didnt get the new look of the folders as in

Longhorn Inspirat

or the blue bit of bricopack vista bricopack

i applied the msstyle in skinstudio, but didnt get any result.

As of icons, i use iconpackager

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?

Download Styler and Use the Bister Toolbar

in Styler Settings

In Toolbar Tab, check "Hide Menubar(IE)

in Info Tab, Check "Styler TB Mode"

I hear ya Duke D. I've tried several times to apply shellstyle and get the same results. read me file instructions not hard to understand. both the 'please wait' and 'shutdown confirmation' in the old luna shellstyle makes me wanna gag. Benotti - whats up with the 'shift+f9 to apply'? :wacko: :blink: :wacko:

With the version 3 new start menu, the "log off" and "turn computer" off button don't work. hopefully there will be a fix for it soon. Everything else works fine so far. Only the start menu buttons need to be fix. To show you what I mean't, I have attached a picture with my post. No hurry in fixing this, just wanting to point it out incase no one notice.

thanks for the great skin.

Well this shows you didn't read the readme file. ;)

"In all BETA 2 versions the log off buttons on the Start Menu doesn't work. The buttons are hidden in the white area. The buttons can't be done that way because WindowBlinds dont have control over that text. I made it that way to keep the feel of the Window Vista Beta 2 concept."

Sorry guys for not posting these days. I've been very very busy. Thanks to those that have been answer question of other members :)

Well skin skin have been removed from WinCusomize once again. :rolleyes: Microsoft contacted Brad about the skin and he hd to take it down. At this point there are a lot of different Vista skins in both format, msstyle and WB, and they only took down mine. :/

wow that sucks.. :/

Nice kick to the teeth for them broadcasting your skin like they did.. then they dont take any but yours down because they associated yours with Windowblinds 5... and their "key" features.. so you got a raw deal out of that one...

What does this mean then?

Microsoft wont allow you to:

1 skin vista themes anymore

2 use the name vista

3 cease skinning

4 all of the above

Hope this doesn't mean you can't continue kol.

No, they just asked Brad to remove the skin from WinCustomize. The skin still up on deviatnART and GetSkinned and I wont remove them unless they contact me and explai why only my skin. Im making some update to the skins and I'll upload it soon. :D

xxhiroshi21xx, the skin was taken down at wc due to microsoft's demands, not due to stardock or wincustomize's wishes. also, stardock is comminucating with ms trying in an attempt to allow the skin to be posted on wc. if ms had demanded any other skin to be removed, it would've been taken down, also. why ms singled out kol's is a mystery to me unless it has something to do with kol's placement of the loggoff/shutdown button images in his latest release. blaming stardock and/or wincustomize for this is not the correct thing to do. if microsoft agrees to it, the skin will be posted on wc once again.

    • >defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool It is not. It is the inhuman artist replacement. The human writing the prompt is the employer/manager requesting the work product of the artist -- a supervisory/descriptive job that doesn't carry with it any rights to the copyright of that work product at all. And since AI is not human itself, it can't gain copyright for anything it is asked to regurgitate or hallucinate, so it can't transfer that copyright to the employer/manager/human who asked for the output. This was all legally reaffirmed last year. So, no, while there are AI tools, AI slopware generation is NOT a "tool" in the legal definition of that word.

    • Google is opening the world's first AI museum in Los Angeles by Ivan Jenic Image via: Google Ever since AI image generators went mainstream, the debate over whether AI-generated art is real art hasn't let up. Those who don’t consider AI to be art say that if a machine does the creating and anyone can prompt it, there’s no skill involved, and therefore no art is produced. The counter-argument is equally persistent, as defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool, and that every major technological breakthrough, like the camera or the computer, was met with the same skepticism before eventually being accepted as a legitimate creative medium. Google’s position in this debate is clear. Which is no surprise, as the company is investing billions in AI infrastructure. And now, in efforts to encourage people to use its AI even more, Google is opening Dataland on June 20, which it's calling the world's first AI arts museum. Located inside The Grand LA, a Frank Gehry-designed building in Los Angeles, the museum spans 25,000 square feet. The museum is built around a collaboration with media artist Refik Anadol, who has worked with Google since 2016. The inaugural exhibition is called Machine Dreams: Rainforest, and is powered by an AI model trained on “an extensive dataset of the natural world.” It generates 1.2 billion pixels of visuals in real time and reacts to visitors dynamically. The space also generates soundscapes, real-time emotion sensing, and algorithmically produced scents. Image via: Refik Anadol Studio / Google Google says that the museum is powered by its Gemini models, which run on Google Cloud. So, everything is generated inside one of Google’s AI data centers and is streamed to the museum. Alongside the museum opening, Google Arts & Culture is funding an AI Artist Residency, giving four artists $25,000 grants each, along with mentorship from Refik Anadol Studio and access to Google's machine learning tools. Their work will be shown at Dataland and on the Google Arts & Culture website later this year. Google’s AI museum will undoubtedly initiate a fired-up debate on social media, and we can’t wait to see the first reactions. Via: Smithsonian Magazine
    • Calling GTA 6 overhyped crap doesn’t make you edgy, it just makes you sound like someone who hasn’t enjoyed anything since the PS2 era.
    • I’m not arguing whether Rockstar likes money. Obviously, they do, they’re a business. I’m saying this isn’t new. They’ve always launched console first. This is just how Rockstar operates.
