INSPIRED BY THE AMAZING WORK OF MANY ARTISTS
Downloads and Faves =
Make your desktop feel Mac-ish or Linux-ish or whatever you feel
A new way of Windows.
* I reccomend using a seperate BrowseUI.DLL, probably one of =invaderjohn 's. His are good.
VERSION 1.1 FIXES
Window frames are now almost all squared, shadow is now all the way around, changed menubar background, TASKBAR IS NOW SMALLER, and I couldn't make the blue window-bottoms smaller because it caused a glitch with glassyness, But I tried.
Version 1.2 FIXES
Fixed Start button for taskbar on bottom (even though it should be on top), fixed glitch with taskbar thickness on restart. Also Updated RED version.
Preview Updated 7.9.08

what a wicked theme! one thing that annoys me is when the screen isnt maximised the title of the window is black! so u have to maximise the whole page for the title bar to turn white. its hard to explain. view the top of your internet browser full maximised then view it when in restore mode and the title goes black!

I have tried out a lot of visual styles, but your axenic theme is by far one of the very best! I hope that you keep up the good work!

fantastic! love the taskbar, the dark windows ..the blue streak is awesome too! is it hard to change the start menu? im thinking a vblack tint instead of white would look awesome, and removing the blue outlines on it. Great job on this !

Hello,
I really love your Vista Theme but i'd like to ask you one thing : Could you make selected files more visible by using a colored background or something like that ?
Thanks

You download styleselector (find it on ~psycoB 's page), put the style folder in styleselector's styles folder, rename it to Axenic, run styleselector, select axenic, and there ya go
Thanks

Truly a great theme, one of the best so far.
I have noticed one problem with it, more specifically the shadows. There is a faint line below the bottom window (below the shadow) which only shows when a window is active.
Here's a pic with a white bg to see what I mean: [link]

Thanks!
Oh frick! I'll see if I can fix that. Thanks for telling me

No problem, those shadows can be a pain to get looking perfect from what I hear so its understandable to have a problem or two.
