y_notm Posted September 3, 2003 Share Posted September 3, 2003 its further along than what i showed a while back, but I haven't been working on it much lately, and I had to reinstall windows the other day so I dont have stylebuilder or even a uxtheme patch installed yet, so i can tshow how far its along either. I can list off the top of my head what still needs to be delunified -pushbuttons -radio and check boxes -scroll bars -tabs -dropdown/combos -toolbar buttons other misc stuff maybe if i install stylebuilder this week ill get a beta out Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/97408-longhorn-aero-visua-style/page/2/#findComment-1127381 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windows X Posted September 3, 2003 Author Share Posted September 3, 2003 Not sure about where you could find aero resources... the files sound fake since MS has aero behind lock and key right now and it doesnt leave a certain lab on campus, which very few people have access to. Could you send me the files? I'm working on an aero conversion for my desktop right now as well and I'd be interested to see what you've recieved Yeah. It was fake!

CyberKewl Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 I think it would be better if u could change the progress bar color, that's the only quirk i can find in this theme, otherwise - good job!

CyberKewl Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 I didn't know the real aero uses that color, maybe have different colors using substyles? :) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/97408-longhorn-aero-visua-style/page/2/#findComment-1135950 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiburon Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 great theme, however it seems to me that the buttons need to be fixed somewhat, they just stick out to much and contrast the background too muich compared to other themes.

graeme_7799 Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 personally, i think you guys have gone overboard on this whole "longhorn" thing.... the visual styles suck. The personalized creations that people have made UNLIKE any microsoft beta and windows styles are the ones that really shine. Longhorn is crap, face it. Its a baby Tyco theme like people say. I bet the final thing will look much better than this piece of junk that i'm sorry to look at. Windows X, you can come up with something better and much more popular than the infamous aero theme.
