wow...I've been looking for the perfect minimalist style for years now. And I just might have found it here. The font size had me worried when I was downloading...as I run at 2048x1536, but it is easily readable.

Excellent work!

To change some of the start menu icons such as Run, search and Help you'll need to change them using Run/regedit To change the folder app icons in "All Programs" you'll need to hack into your shell32.dll You can find a neet tutorial here [link]

Sweet. Thanks!

Oh, by the way, is there a way to automatically replace my default icons with these? I don't know much about icons... Do I have to do it manually?

Now now lets play nice. I understand that the font gets some getting used to. The first 2 or 3 days can be brutal, but one does aquire to it after that (and I'm nearly blind in my left eye). I understand if your running a screen res above 1152 it must be excrusiating and you probally never will get used to it. However you could quikly rectify the problem in stylebuilder. Simply change the fonts. All four colors shouldn't take you more than 5 minutes time. If you don't know how I'm more than willing to guide you through it. I would do it myself, but it's kinda like floging a dead horse....almost desperate like to please everybody. With that said I thank you all for your kind comments.

BTW: the icons in the start menu are my own, and yes they are to be released....someday.

we also need a more 'everyday' font .. because lets face it, no one is going to use this more than 10 minutes without getting fed up of not being able to view text properly..
