Hi I didn't take anything from your work but I can see you were the first to make something like this so I have given you a special thanks in the readme. I just wanted to release something to make it bearable for vista users who hate the aero look, cheers! :blush:

Nice job but I see no need for this thanking to him. You didn't do anything that required the thanking.

You are right but ppl get angry easily and I do not want to cause a fuss. People can do whatever they want with my work since most of the images, look and feel are Microsoft property anyway. I should give credit to Microsoft. :D

You don't really have any room to talk in my opinion. All you do is change colors. You add nothing original to the "themes" you've "made".

You add nothing at all actually and you take the slightest amount of criticism too seriously and get angry too easily. Everyone I've ever seen accuse someone of stealing a theme from them always showed proof to back up what they say. You can't just enter a thread and shout RIPPED WITHOUT PERMISSION without offering proof it's your work. Doesn't work that way.

If you're wanting to be taken seriously as a themer then do something original and it would help if you drop the attitude you always have when people say something to you about your "work". Also, don't try the "Vista is hard to skin" excuse either because Vista's been done for over a year now and there's plenty of completely different and original themes out for it.

EDIT: I just saw your classic theme and it's NOTHING at all like this persons theme. I wouldn't be surprised at all if you didn't even bother to actually look at the persons theme. You saw Vista Classic in the thread title and jumped in to shout RIP because they share similar names is what I think.

You're not the only person to make a classic theme for Vista and name it Vista Classic

ROLF, for a start i have taken the time to look closely, and some elements are ripped, but to be honest its no problem. Shouting? Screaming? Anger? I have havnt done either of those things, so is really ironic to say i havnt taken the time to look where as some people have taken my post out of context.

Saying i have no room to talk, and i have done nothing? well these are just personal attacks when infact i gave months of my life just simply teaching and helping others. I soon realised my themeing wasnt up too scratch so turned my hand to making tutorials.

But Ive just been reminded why i left all forum communitys. Im not going to return.

i wish someone would move away from the standard Aero theme and create something totally original. There were/are so many decent themes available for xp, would be great to see some of those reworked to take advantage of the new dwm features etc.

Indeed I like it. Nice to have the original one refreshed. But geez, make the Orb go away, make it die! Kill it! Kill it! Kill the Orb! Kill the Orb...!

Sorry, got a little excited. Just wanted to express my feelings about a start button which overlaps content and sticks out of the task bar.

I agree with this fully, the its a cool them though =]

True true, there would be many possibilities now with DWM. Well I guess more original themes will start to appear eventually.

If you've ever tried to make a theme for vista you'd know Microsoft have designed the theme alot differently than they did for XP. It is extremely difficult to alter shapes and sizes of things, ie the _ [] X buttons.

    • Ocenaudio 3.19.3 by Razvan Serea  Ocenaudio is a full featured, fast and easy to use audio and music editor. It is the ideal software for people who need to edit and analyze audio files without complications. Ocenaudio also has powerful features that will please more advanced users. To assist ocenaudio development, a powerful toolset of audio editing, analysis and manipulation called Ocen Framework was created. ocenaudio is also based on Qt framework, a well known library for cross-platform development. Cross-platform support ocenaudio is available for all major operating systems: Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X and Linux. Native applications are generated for each platform from a common source, in order to achieve excelent performance and seamless integration with the operating system. All versions of ocenaudio have a uniform set of features and the same graphical interface, so the skills you learn in one platform can be used in the others. VST plugins support Ocenaudio supports VST (Virtual Studio Technology) plugins, giving its users access to numerous effects. Like the native effects, VST effects can use real-time preview to aide configuration. Real-time preview of effects Applying effects such as EQ, gain and filtering is an important part of audio editing. However, it is very tricky to get the desired result by adjusting the controls configuration alone: you must listen the processed audio. To ease the configuration of audio effects, ocenaudio has a real time preview feature: you hear the processed signal while adjusting the controls. The effect configuration window also includes a miniature view of the selected audio signal. You can navigate on this miniature view in the same way as you do on the main interface, selecting parts that interest you and listening to the effect result in real time. Multiselection for delicate editions To speed up complex audio files editing, ocenaudio includes multi-selection. With this amazing tool, you can simultaneously select different portions of an audio file and listen, edit or even apply an effect to them. For example, if you want to normalize only the excerpts of an interview where the interviewee is talking, just select them and apply the effect. Eficient edition of large files With ocenaudio, there is no limit to the length or the quantity of the audio files you can edit. Using an advanced memory management system, the application keeps your files open without wasting any of your computer's memory. Even in files several hours long, common editing operations such as copy, cut or paste happen almost instantly. Fully featured spectrogram Besides offering an incredible waveform view of your audio files, ocenaudio has a powerful and complete spectrogram view. In this view, you can analyze the spectral content of your audio signal with maximum clarity. Advanced users will be surprised to find that the spectrogram settings are applied in real time. The display is updated immediately when altering features such as the number of frequency bands, window type and size and dynamic range of the display.
