Very nice style.. but it would be more nice, if you don't use black as the main color, but instead use a blue color!

Modification of mine... Look at my gallery and Search for XPVista. You modify that (Look at Title bar, that have at mine VS).

Please ask before mod my things!

I may have used tat specific bitmap for the title bar. But I can assure you I did not take your theme and modified it.

Cheers dude

I'd love to get an example for something like that.

RoeeSharf [2008-01-05 14:31:33 +0000 UTC]

First of all, my remarks are far from being idiotic.

I have the right to state that; "I checked out your gallery and didn't see an example of an original theme (or anything else for that matter)", because I'm not presumptuous enough to declare that I have created something new, I've made a "Vista Clone" and I am aware of the lack of functional creativity in my visual style.

Therefor, my remark only apply on you due to the fact that you have stated; "It would be a nice change of seasons to see something original. I bet you can do better", indicating that you have created something original and new. From my point of view, you haven't.

The fact that you colored the taskbar red is not enough to make it new or original. You wanna see something original? watch this [link]

BUT IT HAS TO BE AN EXTERNAL APP OR TOOL!

Because you and I are limited to rules of current OSs' architectures! Yeah, you can recolor and resize anything you want, you'll still be stuck with windows, caption buttons, taskbar or dock etc.

So you may redefine your definition of "Original", grasp the fact that we are limited in designing or save some money (I don't know where your from but it couldn't be that expensive) and smoke something, I'm not saying this to dis you, I actually mean it dude.

Cheers

Sorry man, it wasn`t for you. You misunderstood. `Twas for the annoying bloke pushing my buttons. I have NOTHING against you. Even as it is, your Vista Clone is still a good one, but I`m just emphasizing that useful talent is wasted in these circumstances. Chill and Cheers. AND I DON`T HAVE SHIT TO SMOKE
PS: You are limited because you want to. The WinXP graphic architecture is more than enough to create something original. But anyways, it`s your choice and I respect that. I always have.

DagonMoon [2008-01-05 12:23:45 +0000 UTC]

I`d look in my own gallery before making idiotic remarks about another person`s creations.
@ RoeeSharf, I don`t have money to buy any hash, but I would if I had. Limitations are there because people want them to be. Just check the bloody VS category and see there are some real Visual Styles. ORIGINAL ones.
@ alsaffar, learn some bloody English. You`ll see that once you learn new words, other than "no life" you will be able to communicate with human beings in other ways. That is, if you know what a human being is and you can accept a critique(which, by the way, wasn`t even addressed to you) without bitching about me being a "no life". At least I know some English and at least I do something more than sitting all day on dA and watching what people say.

Peace. And stop skipping school. Especially the English lessons.

Hey man i mean the larger icon size style is not available for me in the drop down "Colour Scheme" menu in appearances. Should it be? I mean you did make one because its in the shell folders.
Good response mate aswel, he is just a bored little no life, there is even a picture of him "bored" so making pathetic comments like that its just gna back fire kid. Who takes into account ur comments anyway vista clones still coming, I'm using this one right now, I love it. "even in your pictures you look pissed. My advice to you; SMOKE SOMETHING!" LMAO

OK man,

I understand what your saying. It is my mistake. The screenshot taken for the preview above is a non released Black48 scheme I've created.

Sorry dude, I guess I'll release the VistaRS Black48 VS soon.

Yo DragonMoon,

I checked out your gallery and didn't see an example of an original theme (or anything else for that matter).

I'm not trying to dis you man but theme designers are very limited to the rules of the operating system itself, in this case, Windows XP.

Sure, if (and when) I'll design my own OS, believe me it will be very different than windows xp or Vista.

In the meantime, as sad as it is, we are all limited to the architectures of current OS's.

Final word, your attitude is too negative, even in your pictures you look pissed. My advice to you; SMOKE SOMETHING!

Cheers dude

This is pretty good, even as it is, a Vista Clone. Try using your imagination to create something unique, not something already done a million times by someone else. That one before wasn`t a hate comment, it`s just that we are all sick of Vista done and redone. It would be a nice change of seasons to see something original. I bet you can do better. (dedicated to ~alsaffar with his "no lifes" or what his English helps him to mumble).
I rest my case.

There are so many tutorials out there so tell me if I should post one.

This vista theme is better than others. Just the caption buttons should be more developed. Thank you for the theme.

I think your asking about Object Dock.

I use the Pro version which has the Tabbed Dock option.
