Description
A minimal theme for windows 8.1This was just a quick side project of Sharp but I still decided to share it.
Install instructions & Help: www.neowin.net/forum/topic/121…
This theme requires oldnewexplorer:
www.msfn.org/board/topic/17037…
Make sure to check glass behind navbar in oldnewexplorer settings.
The top border color can be changed in Control Panel\Appearance and Personalisation\Personalisation\Colour and Appearance.
It's recommended to disable the explorer ribbon and the up button. Also I recommend to apply Glow Tweaks: seapip.com/Glow%20Tweaks.exe
Update:
27-06-14: -Fixed gray titlebar on maximized windows
-Fixed darker color behind titlebar text
-Fixed taskbar background on small taskbar and top taskbar

dblake1 is doing the Windows 7 port once the theme is released for Windows 8.1.1.

For an unknown reason, all my adressbar (everything below the titlebar) is white, buttons, text, ... The only way to see the content of the adressbar is to randomly click where it's supposed to be.
Other than that everything seems to work fine.
I use Uxtheme patcher, Ribbon disabler, TBarIconBlanker and Blank caption font, as well as Glow Tweaks and ExplorerRebarTweaker to disable the up button. I've tried with and without them but nothing changed.

I killed IE by making the titlebar like this, can't be fixed.
Maybe If I made a toolbar for IE that has the navigation in it then it could be fixed but I don't know how to make a custom navigation toolbar :/
