gigapixels Veteran Posted September 1, 2007 Veteran Share Posted September 1, 2007 Any real screenshots? You can't really see much on those tiny monitors.

Coffeee Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 Yeah, as gigapixels said, you can't see anything clearly. Also, the reflection is wrong on the monitors... and refelction of the base is higher than the actual base ;) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/585150-mac-for-vista-final-by-~patrickgs/#findComment-588820893 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mixxster Posted September 1, 2007 Share Posted September 1, 2007 (edited) I need some serious help. I installed this just to try it, thinking I could easily go back. I ended up not liking it. I would REALLY like my logon screen, my ctrl-alt-del screen, my explorer back/forward buttons and anything else that this changed to go back to the Vista default. I see no uninstaller, I feel like this theme was poorly designed and now my beautiful windows theme has been destroyed by something worse than a bad fake of the mac theme. Please help me! Edit: Solution: the dlls are browseui.dll, imageres.dll they are in system32 the originals are renamed to browseui.dll.vista2, imageres.dll.vista2 Edited September 1, 2007 by mixxster Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/585150-mac-for-vista-final-by-~patrickgs/#findComment-588821140 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morpheus Phreak Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 How did you restore them, mixxter? Those are in-use files. Rename the current files and then rename those backups to the original file names. That should be all that is needed.

Eis Posted September 3, 2007 Share Posted September 3, 2007 Really screwed up my system after trying to use regular themes again. Sort of wish it'd give the option to uninstall, revert, or something along those lines. It didn't even make backups for me, so now my original files are lost. Thanks?

John S. Veteran Posted September 3, 2007 Veteran Share Posted September 3, 2007 The max/min/close buttons look jagged, I'm not really feeling any similarities with OSX.

herbicious Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Right on. I'm thinking XP would be a better operating system to attempt to emulate OS X on - Vista's just too different. Granted, it's a lot more powerful, but it's way too different.
