[VS] Win7-Blend for Windows 7


Recommended Posts

it's a great style but I like you wanted a little more transparency on the taskbar...the only way I knew how to do it was replace the images in question using Restorer 2007

so I did until I was happy with the end result...I ended up having to do the start menu also though so they matched..:)

just want to say the style is excellent...I only adjusted it for personal choice.

Can you kindly guide me on what image to edit to make my taskbar more transparent (personal use, of course)? I know I can replace an image using restorator, but I have no idea which to replace. :(

well i get it..

u are not using the files in the x64 folder..

they have the default icons..

and which theme did u download??

v 1.8????

because i fixed this bug in that.. :) and its fixed.. check it up :)

ah no i don't have that version..

will let you know how i get on :)

that is the latest one..

download that :)

and its the final one so i hope it works for u :)

plus ive changed everything to grey from blue.. changed the fonts aswell.

it turns out i did have 1.8, but i have reapplied it now and it seems to work fine.

hope it won't appear again when i reboot.

fingers crossed :o

How could i go about decreasing the transparency on that, or maybe changing it to a shade of gray may look better?

But sorry for nitpicking before i properly thanked you, i think it was said best earlier that the changes are mostly subtle, but they make a huge difference.

All I keep seeing with these windows 7 visual themes is different wall paper showing through the Aero to give you a different color. I'm just not seeing any difference between the different VS's other than wallpaper.

    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
