Energy Blue

[Angelo75]

I lost all my partitions couple of days ago and didn't have any backups. Everything I made for the next version is gone. I don't feel like doing everything again yet so this is on hold for two weeks or so.

It's a terrible tragedy!! :cry:

jgtll, Stop ripping others off without asking for permission. There was a reason your thread was closed.

Did Joni_78 ask Microsoft for permission as she says in her own words this is a modified version of 2005 MCE with some vista bitmaps. I think not.

I didn't and there is no chance to get answer for them, but if they want it removed someday I'm happy to do it.

Can someone tell me how I get this theme to work? It looks great and I really want it but can't work out what to do with it :(

I downloaded and unzipped the file but don't know what to do next. I tried putting the folder in C:>Windows>Resources>Themes but its not selecteable under the 'Themes' or 'Appearances' tabs in display properties.

What am I doing wrong??? :unsure:

Double click on it. Also you need to patch your uxtheme file before using non MS themes.

Ok, that is clearly the problem, I haven't patched the uxtheme file. Problem is this site seems useless for finding this. The patcher program doesn't work (says it can't work cos its detected NT files) and I can't replace the dll file manually because every link on this site to the uxtheme files seems to be dead :huh:

I think that this link works click :)

Err, thats a link to the patcher program that I said didn't work. I couldn't find the uxtheme files to replace them manually but someone suggested using flyakites patcher which worked perfectly.

Unfortunately after waiting so long to try the Energy Blue style I still prefer Royale. The start button looks wrong to me as it goes off the bottom of the page, I accept ths may be unavoidable (or may be the same in Vista), just giving my opinion. It also seems to make the formatting on some Windows pages look less attractive.

I know this style is not finished and as such its pretty damn good, just think I'll cross my fingers and wait till joni is able to continue working on it and make it even better ;)

Ok then you can use this program called replacer to patch manually uxtheme.dll. Grab the uxtheme.dll file from this.

why is it that when i load this theme in stylebuilder (2.0) and change anything ,then click compile it renders it useless?

kind of wierd as this is the first theme that i have run into that does this.

anyone know of a way to fix this.

[M4ck]

Very nice theme. much better than default :laugh:

[anguilla1980]

May I ask if there is any progress towards the wider Vista style min/max/exit buttons for the windows?

A compact taskbar would be a nice addition

[THE BAT]

Nice one

[illicit]

A compact taskbar would be a nice addition

Yeah, that would be pretty sweet. :D

[Douglas_rock]

Yeah, that would be pretty sweet. :D

:yes:

[Blaine]

any updates :)

[Dmitry71]

If only there was a thin taskbar/caption bar version... I would have forgotten any other VS. EVEN LE5!!!

[the_dark_son]

I personally would like to see this offered in a different variety of colors like Black, Silver, Olive Green

[Bobster]

Could you update it with a thin taskbar option? Then it would be perfect IMO.
