Description Just another Mac inspired visual style!

The vs is not 100% ready yet. You'll see that there's no explorerframe.dll so far and the taskbar works only on the bottom currently. I hope I can add this soon.

Nothing left to say, anything else can be found in the .zip.

Useful critique welcome!

I replaced the Shell32 in the System32 (with the x32 one) and the SysWOW64 (with the x64) and when I try to open up a window, it says "Sys32 explorer.exe is not a vaild something" (I can't remember). Lucky, I backed up the other Shell32's. Anyreason on why it's doing this? I'm on Windows 7 Home Pre. SP1.

Hi there, I found a way to fix the taskbar bug.
On Windows Style Builder, go to "Toolbars, Headers and Rebar > Toolbars & Headers > Toolbar > Button" and change "CONTENTMARGINS:MARGINS" to "0, 0, 0, 0".
That's it

Weird, it looks like you uploaded the same version as before.
Here is the updated .msstyles just in case you're having trouble saving your progress in VSB - it happened to me once

And no problem! I just wanted to use this theme without problems. Best theme I've ever used for sure ^^

na641 [2013-01-24 20:00:24 +0000 UTC]

The theme is great, but the system tray area is very buggy (x64). Clicking on tray icons causes all kinds of sporadic behavior. The icons move, change, etc.

Nitnerolf In reply to na641 [2013-01-28 19:16:31 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, I know this annoying bug, but I have no idea how to fix it . The only thing you can do is to hide the whole system tray, but isn't really a good hint, I know

Nitnerolf In reply to sekhon9 [2012-12-29 16:45:59 +0000 UTC]

Try this alternate .msstyles: [link]
Just replace it with the one in Windows/Resources/Themes/zinc
Then you should see the titles

Ausmitut [2012-12-06 20:41:07 +0000 UTC]

I was making a port of this theme for Windows 8, but I had to reinstall Windows 7 because the AMD Drivers are a bit buggy on 8. I still have the resources and most of the theme is done already, I will try to finish it on a Windows 8 Virtual Machine when I have the time.

So... now I installed this theme on my Windows 7 and all I can say is... I love you. This is the best theme I've ever used
And I tried to find a solution for this bug in the system tray but this is all I could find: [link] (and it doesn't seem to be the problem). I will let you know if I find a solution. For now just choose "Hide icons and notifications" for all icons in the system tray and everything will look fine.

Nitnerolf In reply to artulito [2012-11-29 20:16:24 +0000 UTC]

You have to replace the shell32.dll. Read more here [link]
But please don't replace that systemfile if you are not 100% sure what to do. Could destroy your system!

Currently the windows-standart ones. Those in the preview are just photoshopped.
