Thank you very much
Did you restart you machine? This looks like Vista mixed up Satin & the standard theme

I love the theme, but I cannot use it. I installed it on my vista ultimate in the Resource folder. But I can't personalize my pc using this theme. Nothing appears in the styles, only Aero...

Michel8170 In reply to tan2x [2007-09-26 14:14:12 +0000 UTC]
That's ok, Satin appears as 'Aero' in the styles.
But you can identify it, when you apply the 'Aero' with the dark scrollbars

Michel8170 In reply to Michel8170 [2007-09-26 14:15:20 +0000 UTC]
Just doubleclick the Satin msstyle and chose the 'Aero' with the dark scrollbars.
It should work then...

This is amazing, how did you make it?

Michel8170 In reply to JimField [2007-09-25 19:45:45 +0000 UTC]
Thank you
I made the new images (startmenu, orb, taskbar....) with Photoshop
and replaced the original ones with mine
This might sound easy, but took me a few weeks...

Applying the shell32.dll seems to have screwd up my PC
π: 0 β©: 1
Michel8170 In reply to JimField [2007-09-27 10:59:01 +0000 UTC]
Hmm, this would be the first time so far
Pls take ownership of the original shell32.dll and rename it then
After that, copy the patched shell32.dll into your system32 folder
Restart & it should work without any problems. The shellstyle will show up on top of the windows then
Let me know, if it works...

Mach ich
Es sei dir aber gesagt, dass der rote Orb einen Grafikbug beim gedrΓΌckten Image hat...
Ich packe dir mal alle Grafiken zusammen und schicke dir den Link
Mit deiner anderen Frage meinst du wohl auch diesen Orb? NatΓΌrlich kannst du die Farbe Γ€ndern

Tip: switch to black, gives the theme an especially good look...!

You mean the user picture?
You need to edit a value in the variant file to remove it: [link]

Is this for Windows Blinds?
This is very good, and simple. It is willing to adapt!

Michel8170 In reply to xXDiAbLoXx [2007-09-21 10:54:02 +0000 UTC]
No, this is not a WB theme
It's a visual style for Windows Vista, it doesn't need WindowBlinds

I totally agree that this is indeed amazingly done and worthy of being the first theme for Vista to get a DD. Congrats on a job bloody well done!
