Description
This may not be a very usable theme compared to my other ones. I would say that it's more of an experimental theme from my side. It's not a theme for those with darkened vision.I've always wanted to create a dark theme like this, but many of my attempts so far have failed. I tried something different in this one.
Btw. The girl on that photo is: [link]
The wallpaper is from: [link]
Emerald port: [link]
UPDATE: 3/12 - 2007
- Changed the startbutton.
UPDATE: 11/7 - 2007 (Special thanks to aMADme - [link] )
- Text color fixes in browsers like Firefox and Opera.
- Text color fixes in message boxes.
- Window colors are now the same as the rest and not white.
- Other minor fixes.

I've been on the search for a vs that fits my blackbox skin, and this one is deliciously dark...Definitely worth the (Now if only i could figure out why Opera's context menus look so ugly...)

this one is great, except that everything is black besides title bars and so on, wish that pages are white as usual, maybe another version? .)

Thanks. The default theme is very dark, but you can change a lot of colors in Display Properties > Appearance > Advanced. Windows can be changed to white etc.

is this for XP or will it work in vista? i havent found any info about a uxtheme.dll hack for vista and somehow doubt the XP version works for it... but man i miss out on all these cool themes now ;(

lassekongo83 In reply to vexiphne [2007-07-12 11:23:18 +0000 UTC]
It's only for XP. But I belive there are new themes for Vista now too. I found a uxtheme patcher for Vista here: [link]
But you can't use Windows XP themes in Vista. I belive there are some Vista themes posted here: [link]

made it to work, sorry for the disturbance style rocks... it actually made me clean my desktop (~200 icons) just to reach the state of "less is more". keep it up.

congrats on that, hehe - i just reformatted my comp and cleared my desktop too. feels great, doesn't it?
to lassekongo: you are amazing, as always. i would love to see a black or dark gray on white version to complement this one as well if possible.

ye, feels quite calming. Now that I'm back to work on the 30 3DSMax projects I have to finish untill the 15th of September for my portofolio... gives me enough space to paste textures and betas' didn't have the heart to format tho...
(3 years without formating HAHAHAHAHA, I must be out of my mind.)

three years? lol, i think i beat you by two years. i guess that makes me pretty insane. of course, having my C: on Deep Freeze [link] the whole time minimized the need to fret over viruses, formats, etc. very much

This is certainly an interesting concept. I look forward to installing/messing with it tonight when I get home. Something tells me that it won't look too good on my CRT monitor, but it should look alright on the LCD, due to it's inherit brightness.
Kudos none-the-less, and I look forward to your next release.

lassekongo83 In reply to neumein [2007-07-11 06:48:47 +0000 UTC]
Thanks. There are several things you can do to increase the brightness/gamma on old CRT monitors. Either with an application, or in your gfx card driver settings.
