Why don't people just upgrade to Windows 7 and stop pretending? It's nice what you've done, but XP is getting a bit on the old side now.

Simple.

The official 7 Has not been released to the public, and there are some tech savy people who dont just jump on an RC or Beta bandwagon and play beta tester. Besides dont thread crap..

Good work bud!

Because not everybody has the possibility to upgrade (yet).

I'm using this on my notebook at work where we have to use XP.

One small bug I had:

In Outlook, my folder names would be cut off (only happened on some folders). Refreshing the theme solved it but after restarting Outlook, the same problem occured.

With other themes I did not have this.

When I changed the advanced settings of the visual style => Icon: set font to 8 instead of 9 => then I couldn't see the problem anymore.

Other than that, it looks perfect! I now work 4 hours more each day :-)
