This theme is great, the graphics are very crisp. Though i was wondering if i can make a request, could you make a version where the start button orb doesn't get cut off, so you don't need to use the vistastart app or unlocking the taskbar. Also, a white toolbar color would look good to as well as the light blue you have for this version.

thnx for the comment.. Since this is msstyle Visual Style i cannot make a verson were the start orb dosn't cut off. for that i would need to make a windows blind skin. i have no plans at the momment to make one. And i am thinking of a new toolbar image or color to add to future releases but im not sure yet.. there is a newer verson of QueVista you can browse my site to find it . it has new window frame design and some more stuff..

Sorry, i meant, can you make the whole orb fit into the task bar so it doesn't have to be cut off or amended by the patch. I've tried version 3 where unlocking the task bar can amend the orb, but there are a few elements of the this version i think is better, like the shell style, and right click menu. Just a suggestion though. Thanks.

Hello Vyrus.
I'm a big fan of QueVista, is my default theme for XP. I use the 1.5 version because i like 48x48 icons.
I think this is not the right place to do it, but I have a question to you:
There's a way to customize the icon size of the start menu in a different size than "large" and "small" offered in Start Menu Properties?
I use 48x48 icons and want to use 32x32 icons of the "last used programs" in start menu, there's a way of doing that?
To make it easy to understand: [link]
Sorry if this is not the right place to do that, but as you have great knowledge on themes, i thought that you could help me.
Cheers and VIVA QueVista!

you could probly use AveDesk and make shortcuts for you Desktop Icons and have them 48x48 or even up to 256x256 but to have 32x32 on Places list(rightside of startmenu) and and left side you must change a setting in the Taskbar and Startmenu settings dialog to get here do the following
rightclick on the Taskbar then Properties
then click on Startmenu Tab then Customize and select Large Icons instead of Small ones
with this all Startmenu Icons will be 32x32 or what ever ur default icon size is..
hopfully u understood me
thnx for you comment

another comment saying you did a great job, and everything appears to be working normally on mine with stylexp.
the only issue i am having, is the 'common tasks' option in the folders, where you can see file sizes and thumbnails on the left of the folder.
I leave this checked, and it stays fine on any folders i have open when appying quevista, but once i change directories or open other folders, the common tasks dissapears.
I did see the options on the top of folder screens with the 'make new folder' options etc, but no thumbnails or file properties.
is the style set up to be only this way? or is it possible to have the common tasks tab back with my helpfull little thumbnails?
thanks again for the great VS and helping out.

hm.. i don't think im understanding you fully man.. but maybe a Screenshot would help.. and this is seems to be an error with the ShellStyle .. but don't worry.. later im gonna release a new QueVista with diffrent WindowBorders and NEW SHELLSTYLE!!
also if im right on what your talking about.. try doing this...
click on Tools->folder options->View Tab-> then click on apply to all Folders
I THINK that could be it..im not sure but like i said a screen shot would really help..
.... oh never mind lol after reading over and over your comment iknow what your talking about..
ok.. you are used to seeing the commen Tasks on the Left side of the Window right?
well after you apply quevista.. it reapears on top instead of the Left that is normal.. its justbecuase its a different type of ShellStyle QueVista's Shell's are on Top instead of the Left.. on my next update of QueVista.. a new designed Shell will be included like i stated above.. and this one will be on the left and not like the other QueVistas..
just wait a while man.. and be patient.. it will come soon

Well I followed the steps here and got my desktop to run this amazing visual style. I absolutely love it! I've been wanting to get rid of the ugly XP theme forever and this is the best looking theme I've ever come across. Awesome work!
I tried running it on my laptop and it simply won't work. I patched the uxtheme.dll, copied the theme files, ran the patch, everything...nothing works. I don't understand it. Oh well, at least my desktop looks perfect now ^_^

Ok nevermind I got it running on the laptop now...not sure what happened but hey, it works! Thanks again for such a great theme!

i dont get how to in stall your theme, i really like it and i want to use it but i dont get wat u said how to install it
π: 0 β©: 1
its ezy.. ass hell ok..
first of all make sure you have StyleXP installed if not then get your uxtheme.dll file patched u can download a patch. just google for it..
--
after that is done.. then.. extract the contents of the pack.. and use the Theme Shortcut to get u 2 the right place after that cut and paste QueVista Folder and the Windows Aero file there..
--
inorder to get the Startmenu looking right do the following..
use L.S. Pach to get rid of the Logoff, Turn off Computer Text
-
run VistaStart1.3 and make sure it will boot at startup and it is on "Always on Top"
------
get rid of Shadows under menu
Right Click on My computer
then Properties
new window will pop up. And Click on the "Advanced" Tab
Then on "Settings"
under visual Settings Tab make sure
"Show Shadows under menus" is unticked
and then OK
------
and last right click anyware on ur desktop then clickon Properties to get the Display properties dialog open and under Themes Tab
select the Windows Aero Theme and press ok
that should be it.
and if you have further problems read this 100 times if you have to... and make sure ur doing EVERYTHING right..
thnx 4 ur comment
