ZEUS os X F OS for vista

ZEUS OS X : F OS is a Mac OSX port for WIndows (VISTA), made by IDAS = ZEUS osX.

ZEUS os X : F OS is based in the spirit of Apple, not a kind of copy.

ZEUS os X : F OS is ONLY for private use.

I am working to this from November 2006(with windows vista rc1 first, and vista rtm after) UP to now December 2008.

Very nice theme i will give it a try
Nice wallpaper idas. As for the Zeus OS X theme, it looks OK, doesn't really look like Mac OS X.

thank you QuietStorm, thank you Skullpture

ZEUS os X : F OS theme is based in the spirit of os x, not a kind of copy.

Anyone want osx have to use the original Apple's os.

ZEUS os X view is my personal view of osX [on theming/visual styles,cursors,buttons,wallpapers etc] , for the world of windows, under Zeus inspiration.

I'm already running OS X, so I don't need anything to make my computer look like it :p

But I just grabbed the wallpaper of the Earth up there. It's so freaking amazing!!! Thanks!

if you have a mac you can use windows vista on your dual boot system , so you could use my style which is not a copy of osx but a version of looking, of it, under my view (as i said : . . . ZEUS os X : F OS is based in the spirit of Apple, not a kind of copy. . . ) and a lot of work, [and ofcource under limmitations of windows system, as we can not do many things we want].

Now i will give you another wallpaper[an old one] ZEUS AQUA HYDRO, that i made on December 15, 2007[1 year before], also based on original mac osx ones which i have modified as a synthesis. see down of the comments..

Can't see the wallpaper, can someone reupload to imageshack or something? Thanks.

The theme looks very nice on its own.

Thank you LTD. THIS 2 years continious work , see my gallery to see how i start, is trying to make our digital life more comfortable.

ZEUS AQUA HYDRO wallpaper :

It really seems that you have the brushed aluminum look from Tiger in there, was it meant to be that way?

have you download my ZEUS os X F OS theme for vista? it has many aero versions some transparent and some compact and also ofcourse compact basic styles. the compact color [non transparent surfaces] brushed ones based to the first beta realeases of leopard and the gray ones based to the final ones. [also the basic gray ones have 1 pixel side border --> like final leopard version, also on aero i made similar side borders](also i give 3 kind of buttons, A. circle itunes6 style ones, B. white ones and C. gray style ones .

on these screenshots here , you can see only the white style buttons, but on theme include there are included ALL of them, also included visual styles without designed buttons on adressbar, download it and you see all those yourself)

-------------------

some aero versions of my vista styles previews that included on my zeusosx F os theme :

---------------------

but on windows 7 its possible to make something more simple as many modifications on code that i personally found on vista, on windows 7 do not work , so what i do is to transport one of my vista styles to windows7 beta platform and if everything will be ok and have also free time i will try to transport the rest.

Ironic. People skinned better looking mac themes for XP even with a total lack of transparency and shadow support.

DWM Transparency, resource sharing, graphical glitches and unorthodox button sizing/margins are the culprits. You have more graphics for different parts of the explorer, buttons, etc.

Windows XP is easy. Not so ironic in that sense. It is ironic though, that an older OS can and often looks better than the latest one available.

i agree.

i spent 2 years of my life to find not new things on code [of vista] but hidden code from us. on xp the things are more ease customizable, more light and faster, also adressbar or search could be resizable[like osx] and transpotable !!! and on modern vista not !!! on vista a complete useless [in my oppinion] foderband toolbar existed [infact only the command which open menu's is usefull [but this command could be added anywhere as a part of a tooltip or adding as an extra button o adress band or anywhere they like].

so the main reason for all this happen perchaps it was that people have to be persuade that they must buy new kind of proccessors[faster] , [transparency could exist also on xp but the like to sell new software which support the ''superior'' new products of hardware ] etc for having [we] the latest technology !!!!!!!!

for having vista system which is slowwwwwwwwwwwwwww but New !!!! and not the faster old xp.

so all about money and marcet policy.

even win7 at least the today beta is far faster than vista sp1 i use[windows folder on vista sp1, also after the recommended microsoft updates is 10 times bigger than the initial vista rtm] .

-------

and on windows 7 do the same '' policy '' , they lock part of the code.

when i speak for code i reffer only for customization and not for the security or the fuctionality code, because i agree that propertie of anyone, in this case of microsoft must protected.

but the view of the windows [how they should look] its a thing that the user must decide and not microsoft. microsoft could give us its view, its luna theme or its aero etc, but must leave unlock the code for the user that wants to make new personal creations on visual style.

i make you a simple example of a lock on code [on vista and on windows7] ---> when you mouse over a folder, the text color remain black even if you have added code to the mstyle to be white [if you try to do on shellstyle.dll propably 2 things happened : or havingfor normal, mouse over , mouse presed etc the same color lets say white[but having white backgroun on normal noone can see the foldrers white text, and only when mouse over etc] or explorer crashed if you try more complicated modifications to shellstyle.dll]

also the min,max,close buttons on aero could not be resized adding code [content and sizing margins or atlas resize etc] and many , many other locked things.

also now on windows 7 there are more locked things, thats the biggest Dissapointment for a user.

i dont feel smart or clever or whatever when i discover code, that microsoft has hidden, even if in some cases, that i do, noone has found.

i feel mercy for the brain is thinking on this way, or for the brain that thought that my[or our] behaviour would be on that way[their code is not the measurement of my self]

my think is to make things=themes that i like and share with all people.

so for changing the look of windows 7 [and of vista before] you have to be researcher of code and to be designer and more, more other things, most of people dont know how difficult is [they see only how the theme/visual styles looks, but its very hard work], and is difficult because of this marcet [?] policy.

no problem daft : if you use vista on doual boot , have a look to my work.[my themes are working only on vista, and i am also trying to transport litle by litle to new windows 7 platform].

my work is based on osx , but its not like tiger or leopard etc. my work its a creation of my thoughts how osx would look under my personal style and under limitations of window system and under limitations of my little knowledge of the subject, to the world of windows.

so here i use and admire brushed versions of osx , which i find as the best in my oppinion, has ever been [as on os view which made by Apple], so my think for a windows theme is a combination of glass and brushed metal. [also gray styles exist]

-----------

my suggestion to a mac user:

if you have to buy an os for dualboot perchaps xp or the forthcoming windows 7 is a better than vista.
