Vista R7 Beta 1 by ~downtheory

Posted my first .msstyles them for Vista over at deviantart and thought I would post it here for my fellow Neowinians.

This theme is in beta stage right now and its mostly an Aero mod. No resources ripped from other artists, all my own work. Hope you all enjoy this. :)

I kinda like it. I think I'll give it a try and let you know if I can spot any bugs.

Why are so many into the glass look? not me just keep it simple.

I love it! Running it now! The Start icon and taskbar are very good.

One thing I really don't like though is that the system tray icons are really high...they should be much lower down near the bottom edge of the screen, they look so out of place where they are.

Apart from that, bloody brilliant!

I agree I really like the theme, but the icons in the system tray being so high is kinda annoying.

Thanks for the all the comments everyone. :)

All of the suggestions have be noted as well.

I do plan on updating this theme again sometime in the near future.

Now that I have more knowledge of how everything works.

Feel free to check out my deviantart page in my sig, I have a new theme up now. :)

Ok, so I'm a n00b at all this, but I can't seem to get the theme working.

I applied the UXTHEME patch restarted, unzipped your file, placed it in the THEmes folders and then double-clicked on .msstyles and I see zero changes to my Theme? When I double click it takes me to the color-scheme window and I click OK.

What am I missing? Do you have any third party apps running?

Thanks

EDIT...so I went and manually selected your Theme, but I'm not getting that very clear transparency like I see in your example.

Meetloaf:

If you are running Vista Home Basic, or anything lower than Ultimate, you may not be able to see the transparency as well.

And if you don`t have a very good video card it will not display properly either.

But otherwise, maybe something got corrupted. You may need to re-download and re-apply and see if that changes anything.

Let me know if this worked or not. Will do my best to help you out. :)
