Description
Enjoy.PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS THEME IS NOT FOR VISTA!
Please also note that the taskbar was designed for the bottom of the screen. If people show interest in another orientation, please comment and I will create it for you.
Features:
- Caption buttons with Win3x-style symbols.
- Caption buttons are blank until moused-over.
- Thinner borders on windows.
- Simpler taskbar with a more two-dimensional look than default.
- Blue loading bars; the continuous ones have green pulses in them.
Instructions for the nubz:
- Download the Universal Theme Patcher x86 or x64 (depends on your OS.
- Extract and run it, patching all files it indicates possible to patch.
- Reboot.
- Extract (winrar, etc.) and copy theme into your c:\windows\resources\themes folder (or wherever your windows is installed).
- Either click the .theme file or go into "Personalization" and click it there.
BTW:
- Wallpaper in new preview not included - found at [link]
- Font used systemwide in preview is Corbel (comes with Win7).
- Font smoothing done by GDI++ and Cleartype to cover maximum number of programs with best font smoothing possible.
- Desktop switcher I'm using is a Dexpot beta version (I'm a tester) 1.6 and does the Linux Cube thing too...

I can't believe this has so many downloads and is still being downloaded!
Made this back before there were even Win7 tools, during the RC or some such..

Preview and description updated to better illustrate the look of the theme (other BG was too dark to see in non-fullscreen) and instructions on how to use it and details about the preview.

See the updated description.

Themepack files aren't absolutely necessary, but they make it so that the theme shows up as easily-accessed buttons in the personalization menu with the presets and wallpaper that I included.

For all of you who don't understand how to use this - still - here are some instructions:
- Download the Universal Theme Patcher x86 or x64 (depends on your OS.
- Extract and run it, patching all files it indicates possible to patch.
- Reboot.
- Copy theme into your c:\windows\resources\themes folder (or wherever your windows is installed).
- Either click the .theme file or go into "Personalization" and click it there.
Also, this says IN IT'S NAME that it's for Windows 7, so for those of you who are trying to install it on Vista, I pity you for your ignorance. :/

Oh and for those who are total noobs, you have to also extract the theme form the .rar file... www.rarlab.com... :/

what exactly is different about it other than the min/max/close buttons.

I know this response is late, but for archival purposes - it makes the window borders thinner (preserving space), and the taskbar is completely customized to be more of a blurry overlay instead of a glass hunk. The border for the taskbar is also a thin line instead of a three-dimensional border, making it appear more two-dimensional.

any chance of a version that doesn't change the sounds for windows 7 7700 enterprise?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
It doesn't "change the sounds", it just uses one of the built-in soundsets. If you don't like the soundset I chose, go into Personalize and change it back to the default one and things will be good as new.

This theme is outstanding! One of the best Windows 7 style I've come across (just a shame about the black line across the top of the taskbar. If this wasnt there this would have been awesome! Any chance of fixing it?)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Sorry but the black line is intentional. Look up Maxclear, that theme (made by someone else) is very similar to mine but has no black bar. I purposefully made the black bar because not having any divider looks very strange (I tried it).

Thanks for the reply Raven, fair enough yours is still better than Maxclear!
