For me is nice and usable..
the only bad thing is that the opened apps minimized on systray even without focus are too much in light with dark themes. It would be nice if u decrease the light on those (maybe better without light gradient totally), when an application need attention it will be more eyeblink and noticeable if just that got a different light like blue\yellow..ecc.

Why? Why?! WHY do you need to make "Windows 8" theme for "Windows 7", if "Windows 8" looks much MUCH worse?

Some elements in Windows 8 it is better, some are worse.
The main thing - Aero style from Windows 7 is kept.
From Win 8 square style of buttons, windows, etc. is taken.

Я вот тут заметил, что вроде и по-русски можно...

Я просто смотреть даже не могу на "Windows 8", поэтому меня всегда удивляет такая направленность стиля...

Можно
Всё, что я взято от 8 - квадратный стиль кнопок, окон и прочего. Metro от восьмерки мне тоже не нравиться, поэтому Aero никуда не исчезло

Не плохая темка! Но по моему лучше б окантовка окон, пз и пуска была просто чёрной линией. Например как тут [link]

Rammist In reply to Pacan4eG [2012-12-07 15:09:41 +0000 UTC]

Потестил я Ваше предложение и пришел к выводу, что Пуск с такой окантовкой - нормал, а вот окна - не, не, не!

The link you sent is for non-SP1 systems, but I can extract the resources and use it in my imageres.dll

No. It's not a rip-off Aero+. This is a combination of my two themes. Please if you want to use someone else's work, first ask for permission or at least mention author of original theme you used as the basis. This is almost the complete copy of my two themes.

Rammist In reply to mare-m [2012-12-06 09:37:40 +0000 UTC]

My theme is combination of 2 those themes by Microsoft!

So why do not you use the resources of Microsoft than mine? I have already explained in the comments below but I will say once again. None of my themes is not a simple port. Most of the resources is made by me. If you think it's just a simple copy then you are very wrong. I agree that the design is not mine but it is a big job to do what I did. Try to make a theme from zero, and you will see how easy it is. Just look at how many updates have theme so you will probably be a little clearer. It does not matter but I just think it's fair to mention real author of this theme or theme port or call it what you want.

Rammist In reply to mare-m [2012-12-06 15:42:18 +0000 UTC]

I do not say that the theme of the author. And therefore called her RP + RTM. And that topic is difficult to make from scratch, I know.
Theme has initially just for myself, because my PC does not support Windows 8, but it would give it a new look.
In the description I wrote. If you want I can to soothe your soul indicate that the work I have helped you?

Do not get me wrong but I'm just trying to tell people that what I do is not an easy job as you think. I appreciate other people's work and effort and I like that so people relate to me. My opinion is that this is the right approach but unfortunately many don't think like this. Thank you for understanding.

Not sure if you're kidding or not, but your two themes are copies of Windows 8 RP and Windows 8 RTM, and both themes were made by Microsoft for Windows 8. Just because you made a port for Windows 7 doesn't mean you own those designs...
You shouldn't say "Combination of my two themes".
You should say "Combination of those two themes made by Microsoft".
Yep, and that's exactly what ~Rammist wanted to do... Just look at the name of the theme: Windows 8 RP+RTM.

I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just being fair

You have to understand one thing. None of my themes is not a simple port. Most of the resources is made by me. If you think it's just a simple copy then you are very wrong. I agree that the design is not mine but it is a big job to do what I did. Try to make a theme from zero, and you will see how easy it is. The easiest way is to use someone else's work and present as your own without a thank you for it. Did you notice how many updates had my two themes. So I think it's not fair your comment.

Ausmitut In reply to mare-m [2012-12-06 20:18:17 +0000 UTC]

Alright. I took a look at the resources you used, and indeed you had to make some of them yourself because the .msstyles used in Windows 8 are a bit different than those in Windows 7.
Sorry then

Nice, but:
- can you make better (Win7-like) scrollbars?
- when wallpaper is dark, hard to see titlebar text
