absoultely fantastic man

the only vista theme that actually made me go :woot:

thanks a lot for this

:)

I love these themes, but I'm having a problem with the icons on the start menu:

Notice how you can see part of the icons beside "Documents" etc? And that the "Turn off computer" button overlaps? Can I fix this?

Keep up the great work. :woot:

I read the topic from the start and found out it was due to having large icons. I've sorted it now. But I wonder if I can make the start menu "orb" big by default (as opposed to it being small and getting bigger when clicked).

i think this might be impossible. but windowsX can you make a different mssyles file for people who use 48px size icons? and one for the standard 32px?

your skins are great! but that bug is anoying >< and i am not sure what part of the theme to edit. if you could add a tutorial for it that would be cool too.

Yeah I wouldn't mind making the necessary changes myself if someone showed me how. I love large icons tho, so I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place because I love this theme as well, lol. I'd be willing to make a donation if Windows X would oblige me. :whistle:

wicked stuff! ;)

What changes can we expect to see?

Sorry if this has already been asked.

Just installed your theme and I like it. Just a couple of problems I ran into.

1. The separator bars on the main toolbar for things like Explorer, IE, OE, and similar MS programs do not show up. The space is there for them its just that the bar does not display. To be fair I've had this happen with other themes. Any thoughts on this? Not a big deal but I am curious.

2. The default font of 9 is to small for me. I changed it to 10. However this screws up the Start Menu where the 'Log Off' and 'Turn Off Computer' stuff is located. I am using Vista Beta 2 style (Segoe UI). The other styles also do this. Change the Icon fontsize to 10 and see for yourself.

@ GShapiro

You installed 2.0 or 3.0 ... ?

[gshapiro]

I pulled it from the first post yesterday. I think it was 3.0.

[ishiok]

Yes. It is version 3.0 dated Jan 16, 2006.

[gshapiro]

OK. I was using version 2. I just installed version 3.

When I increase the fontsize to 10 the 'Turn Off' that you get when hovering over the Off button gets truncated to 'Of'.

Also the separator bars are still not visible. But as I said I get this with some other themes too. I really would like to know why.

Missing the ' smoothness' in these Vista themes: The colors do not comine to well and the icons are just a bit to big for my liking. Maybe combine the new graphics with the basic of KoL's Vista theme .

Oeps....sorry, those are banned by MS. But hey, who will tell?

[winfx]

Where can I get version 3? I'm not seeing it in the first post.

[nightRider]

Black ?!

Why always black ?

There are kinds of colors to make people comfortable.

^^ Thats so racist. j/k, j/p, etc. etc. etc.

Asked for that once on this form but nobody seems to have figured that one out yet. Maybe windowsX will...?

I'm not sure if you're aware of this bug Windows X, but when using the WB theme and you open a folder, the folder tasks in the left pane can't be seen, you need to hover over them to actually see what they are:

Overall tho, excellent update. Great work dude. You seriously rawk.

Ok, I have 3.0 and it looks like its for StylesXP and not WindowBlinds. Is there a WindowBlinds version? Is it coming in Version 4? Any timetable?

Thx...

[winfx]

There is a WB version. When you install the pack, it installs the WB theme automatically.

You can also use the ordinary themes with a patched uxtheme.dll.
