Posted February 2, 2006 It worked without a hitch for me, now I've got this as my theme:http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/27686055/ : peace: Caris or Mr_Odwin, can you post a link for that theme please? It looks cool. :shock: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 2, 2006 As Odwin and Diets have said, the problem with window blinds is that it is resource whore, it merely sits on top of themes, rather than replacing them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 2, 2006 It's called VistaXP, but a quick google search reveals that Microsoft have banned it and it's been taken down from most places. You can maybe find it somewhere though, or there'll be similar ones in Deviantart>browse>Skins&Themes>Windows Utilities>Visual styles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 2, 2006 the best themes availble for xp at the moment is called Luna Element 4 it comes in blue or black, flavour For ages I thought there was nothing better than the Luna/Souluna and all other Luna rip-off themes... but lately I've completely gone off them :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 2, 2006 http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y76/dabookerman1/mytheme.jpg this would be my theme. altho the sidebar sometimes freezes which is a nuisance Don't wear out the Longhorn theme, since you'll be seeing it all the time when Longhorn actually does come out since apparently it won't be skinnable.

Posted February 2, 2006 This is really, really nice. I've seen it before but for some reason never tried it out until now. I still haven't seen any theme/skin better than foton, and I've been using it for absolutely ages. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 2, 2006 I'm cofnused, i put the theme file in windows/rescources/themes and it's in the list when i right click and go in properties, but when i select it all that happens is the background changes to nothing..

Posted February 2, 2006 I used StyleXP when i had a crappy 512mb ram and it just killed everything, had to reinstall xp it was so bad. I use a paid piece of software called tuneup utilities: I dont mind using programs that use a bit of ram..theres only a difference of about 5% from not having it on.
