GUI MODS | Windows Vista Themes

Author: lassekongo83
Author’s Notes: Licorice with a flavor of Mint..?
Based on “Wasabi?”, so don’t excpect any new color schemes at the moment. Changing all the gradients takes time. -_-

The Foobar config didn’t became exactly like the photoshopped one in the preview, but it’s pretty close.

Update 2:
-Tahoma substyle added.
-Caption buttons are now smaller and not as thick as they were before.
-Some small fixes.

Update 1:
-Some small fixes.
-Haxcorp font option added in the second substyle.
(Substyle one uses Calibri.)

Author’s Notes: here is my second visualstyle for you.

after “Klarheit” beeing quite successful for my first one, i wanted to make a theme that’s more stylish, modern but still usable. there are some glowing and glossy elements combined with a simple and flat window-layout.
it took about three months from the idea to the release.

hope you like it.

before you comment, please note that there is no shellstyle, substyle and/or complete suite planned (by me).
besides, don’t wonder why i can’t answer your comments from monday to friday, because i’m in the (german) army and not at home then…

oh, and - if you like it - please don’t forget to add it to your :+fav: favorites. thanks.

*update 1.1 (2007-02-23):

* added full startmenu
* made min-/max-/close-buttons more visible
* changed hovered-text-color in startmenu to white
* added scrollbar-gripper

Author’s Notes: 80% complete! Please by patient [rar include one style with two colors blue and green.

Author’s Notes: Not exactly sure how green wasabi really is. Maybe this is the rotten wasabi color. :p

This was supposed to be the green substyle for Glassic Candy, but I changed a lot of things, so it became a new VS instead.

Author’s Notes: Presenting IceAngel VS, or “The theme that everybody was waiting for and I took forever to finish” XD.

Before I talk about anything else, I have to say that there is NO SHELLSTYLE. I *was* going to wait until I made the shellstyle before releasing this, but college just started again and I’m fearing that at the rate things are going, if I would have waited until the shellstyle’s finished to release the theme, nobody would be wanting this anymore because everyone would have Vista.

The theme has a thin taskbar, and two substyles: default and compact start menu. There is also a 1024×768 wallpaper included in the zip.

I cleaned up the interface a lot since the version from last year, I especially worked at giving a crisper look to the caption buttons (which is why they are a bit smaller than on last year’s preview) and worked to fix the many bugs that had discouraged me from finishing the theme the first time around. There is still a bug in photshop (well PS7 anyway) with the bottom of the windows. . .I guess Photoshop doesn’t like round window bottoms <.<

For those who don't know how to use it:
1- Get the uxtheme patcher from Neowin.net http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=140707
2- Install it and restart your PC
3- Unzip the theme into C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes
4- Go into your display properties (by right-clicking on your desktop or in the control panel)
5- In the appearance tab, in the first dropdown, there should be a new entry named "Ice Angel"
