Nice work ChaNinja!

One problem: My WinXP is now half Norwegian and half English :(

EDIT: Explorer.exe is not working as it should and I can't restore my old settings. I've made backups of course, but it don't seems to work. Well. Format C: for me. I should have known that it wouldn't work on a different language, but it was worth a try. :blush:

huh, cant edit previous posts.... i am also curious as to if anyone has modded their own explorer.exe and shell32 files with the chaninja ones, version .1221 for explorer and shell32 i dont know where its located :( thanks forany help!!!!!

explorer.exe and shell32.dll are both in the system32 folder of windows and the modded ones can be found in this thread.

ChaNinja, I tried to email you but something stopped me: I don't know if its something with your email or if my email server is just acting up again.

I was wondering if you minded me porting some of your msstyles to windowblinds. With windowblinds I can include the toolbaricons and the system animations. Right now for my personal use I have converted simplex to windowblinds and have all of the options working with it: toolbar icons, animations, shutdown and logoff dialogues, etc.

here's my email: mailto:[email protected]

Fantastic work Chaninja!

I've been using your subzero visual style and icons for quite a moment now, and yesterday i found out here that there are more ressources to mod the dlls! Great!

But if i could get my hand on the latest dll sample files (links are broken in this topic) i could export them more easily to my system files (french windows)..

Could anyone post the dll modified files again please?

I had thought that these got deleted when I reformated, but I found them on a backup cd I made. I've uploaded them to a server I have for my sigs and avatars. Here you go, enjoy. :D

Dll Mods

note: the server will be slow at times, but you will get the file. Sometimes it's slow during peak hours.
