Fazed Reality Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 I attempted to fix as much of this visual style as I know how to. As a bonus there are now 9 more color choices. Enjoy! :) All rights belong to Microsoft, I merely finished the job the best I knew how to. Preview and Download the Zune Final VS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legenda Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Great work, thanks! Using your theme now. But you know, it would be really great if one could add a font profile that uses Vista's Segoe UI font instead of MS Sans Serif and Tahoma for UI components. Could you please add that to your theme? Would really appreciate it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor V. Posted December 26, 2006 Share Posted December 26, 2006 Legenda, I believe that it wouldn't be great as if the theme is there it is because Zune is there, and Zune uses Trebuchet MS (I guess) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I would like to see this theme with Segoe UI (in all UI components, not just the window topic). I think the only reason Microsoft chose to use Trebuchet MS and Tahoma/MS Sans Serif for UI fonts is because Segoe UI will not be distributed to Windows XP through any Microsoft's software products. But that's no reason not to create a font profile for those of us who have copied the font from Vista to XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not take it from Vista or download from a website. It has to have come from Microsoft Update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ring0 Posted December 27, 2006 Share Posted December 27, 2006 if this were made with a thin taskbar and smaller buttons, i'd be all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is how Zune would look with that font :| Not that bad... but I like Trebushet more :yes: if this were made with a thin taskbar and smaller buttons, i'd be all over it. Hmmm... somebody want to make a mod? :laugh: I like these bigger themes, it's so much easier to actually hit the buttons with the mouse - especially on high resolutions. I think Microsoft did extensive usability testing and that's why everything is the size it is :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LUTZIFER Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Nice to see a VS with a proper sized taskbar and titlebar for a change, going by the screenshot that is. Thin is just dumb. Anyways, good work, although I haven't used this, the screenshot looks pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashing Pumpkin Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 Thanks for a great theme, I've been using Vista themes for ages now and it's a nice break to have XP back for a while =P Great work. Rich xxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelgenX Posted July 24, 2007 Share Posted July 24, 2007 This would be one of the coolest Vista mock ups I've seen yet if only the caption and start buttons didn't remind me of ****ing legos. (I'm just saying they're too big.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
