Hi all,

Nice style i downloaded and installed it, looks great.

I have a (probably very nooby) question however: How do you get the "os x style" taskbar to appear on your desktop (as shown in the screenshots). I'm runnin vista ultimate x64 (don't know if this has anything to do with it).

Thanks in advance for the replys!

You haven't quite read the topic and all its posts have you? :p

Its called a dock, kinda like how the mac os has it. I'm using a program called rocketdock which is freeware and it uses very little system resources. RocketDock HomePage

And here are 2 mirrors to the theme:

Rapidshare

MegaUpload

Lol, Resident one post wonder :rofl:

Nice revision, thanks. Strange how the progressbars in firefox are still green

i thought it was depending on the firefox screen itself? anyway ... i will check these days if i can fix it somehow ... :)

my latest progress:

i made the taskbar a bit less transparent and you get the look which you can see in the screenshot without adjusting colorpres, means you won't lose any window-transparency.

Thanks for alert !!!

uh what's the problem?

there is a txt file in the first .rar file, i decided to leave it out in the latest one because some steps have become obsolete and i thought everyone would know the rest.

here it is basically:

copy aerodiamond-folder (which contains aerodiamond.msstyles file and a folder "\shell\normalcolor\shellstyle.dll) to %windir%\ressources\themes

doubleclick on aerodiamond.msstyles new window will appear, try to chose first "aero" style in the list (not the 2nd one selected by default) - if it doesn't work, chose the 2nd one (selected by default)

you'll find the wallpaper in the aerodiamond0_3.rar btw.

Copy Animation and sidebar as it says in how to install:

The Sidebar doesn't look that much good but the skin is excellent. I got bored of the green progressbar. BTW in firefox using this theme, the browsing progress and download progressbars are green. Would you happen to know of a cure for that?

Nice dock. Which one is that?

I've put the folder AeroDiamond in C:\Windows\Ressources\ and double clicked the .msstyle but still only see one Windows Aero in that list. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong?

did you patch vista for using customized visual styles?

The taskbar and the sidebar don't change color/style for me...any clue why?

the taskbar should change the color/style as it does here and for many others (hopefully :whistle: ). the sidebar style can only be changed due an extra style - which comes with the first aerodiamond.rar and i added an extra dl link today so you can just grab the sidebar skin there.

Sorry if this is already getting annoying but Firefox doesn't like your theme recoloring much

do you mean the green progressbar? it's firefoxs "problem" not one of the windows style. :shiftyninja:

where i can fin a weather forecast gadget?

check out first post please. :laugh:

@all
