Crazy work man. (Y)

Do you need Konfabulator for this?

I tried without it though, works perfect. A little slow on my PC.

Wow! this is the best vista/longhorn explorer emulation ever! can i suggest a file menu or some kind of menu?

[blackice912 Veteran]

Looking forward to updates.

[pcw]

Nice stuff :)

The searchbar doesn't work though...

[Windows X]

it won't be faster since it's stuff created by DesktopX which mean you need newer version of DesktopX that is faster to base this on.

[Antaris Veteran]

But this is a gadget, not a widget, so it shouldn't be dependant on DesktopX...

[sicburns]

I wanna see some screenshots ;):D

@kiall:to install it to work with your main explorer navigate to C:/Windows(WinNT)/Sytem32 and find explorer.exe and rename it to explorer.exe.bak(incase something goes wrong)then just drag the vista explorer.exe into system32 and there you go!

Sexy, but i prefer my default theme :)

Could someone tell me how it's possible to change the resources in this for personal mods, ie. change the png's ( I assume).

Reshack and resedit are useless and when I unpack the exe, I'm only left with a dll that I don't really recognize and it's certainly not the loacation of the resources?

It would be fun to play around with this, even if only for a bit of a laugh.

It's a great breakthrough, and I'm very impressed. Thehours I've spent manipulating visual styles to give them some degree of transparency, and now I find that the answer was somewhere else all along. Great Work.

very good concept works fine on my comp but it needs a little bit of work

[.Ark]

Sweet! :D

[S...]

Good job!

This thing defo has potential. As you mentioned yourself though, it still needs some work like icons, menu's etc

Apart from that, I cant seem to maximize the windows, and I wonder whether it would be possible to make the background behind the glass blurry like in Vista?

[Joliet Jake]

Its good, can't wait for final.

It doesn't work slow here.

[savourymonkey]

Anybody tell me yet how to customize this? Sure someone must know. I'm not really familiar wih desktop x, although I have 2.0 on my system from ages ago. Still doesn't seem to help me edit this though. Just replacing png's would be enough.
