+Frank B. Subscriber² Posted January 31, 2009 Subscriber² Share Posted January 31, 2009 While browsing deviantART I noticed that em3 has released his new VS. It's called 'Ambient, a Windows XP visual style inspired by the default themes of Windows XP, Vista and 7.' Screenshot: More information and download on deviantART.

NienorGT Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Look nice, but I don't think it will best Luna Element anytime soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skelly831 Posted January 31, 2009 Share Posted January 31, 2009 Great VS, using it now. em3 does excellent work. +fav'ed on dA :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lamp0 Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Brilliant!! I think this out does Luna Element. Now I am hoping for something for Vista :shifty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krokus Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 It's updated. :) A compact style is added. (Hopes for a black version.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted February 1, 2009 Veteran Share Posted February 1, 2009 If I where you I wouldn't hope for a black version. This visual style is awesome if you ask me. I've been using it since the first hour of it's released and I still like it a lot :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krokus Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 I always used blue Visual Styles. (Luna Element 3 was the first custom Visual Style I ever used.) But got used to black Visual Styles so it will take some to get used to blue again. (I like this VS better than Luna Element...!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamushroom Veteran Posted February 1, 2009 Veteran Share Posted February 1, 2009 I'm not sure if I like this better then Luna Element 5.1. Some stuff looks better and other stuff doesn't. Bot on the other hand, I don't think that this theme should be compared with LE. For this theme he took inspiration from Luna, Aero Basic and Windows 7's Aero. For Luna Element 5.1 he took inspiration from Luna and Aero/Vista Beta. There are also some similarities between this theme and my new theme. But we all knew that that was bound to happen.

tehmemories Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 Nice, but I wouldn't stop using Watercolor Emico for it though :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEVER85 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 This is a great theme! Ranks right up there with Watercolor Emico and Luna Element as the best XP visual styles out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scirwode Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Nice, but I wouldn't stop using Watercolor Emico for it though :laugh: Agreed :p . Scirwode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyric Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Thats a great theme for XP...he should release a black taskbar with the green startbar button. Too bad I don't use XP anymore....finally made the upgrade to vista when I built my new computer 3 weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x-byte Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Looks great. Will use it on my work PC, since it's the only one I have XP on. Good thing we have em3 after Bant "left" the scene... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bawx Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Absolutely brilliant. This might be the top 3 VS's I've ever used. Luna, Clearlooks black, windows classic, this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamushroom Veteran Posted February 3, 2009 Veteran Share Posted February 3, 2009 @martin10018: Both em3 and me couldn't reproduce the bug so it's also unknown how to fix it. Have you tried using the visual style without Styler on that PC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
