Description
Update 01/28/2015:
Sword Art Online theme for Windows 7 has been released!
Click on above link ^ to get it. Read the description!
I'm currently working on a Windows theme based on Sword Art Online, and its GUI.
It will be released initially on Windows 7, and most likely be ported within a few days afterwards to 8 / 8.1.
Updated 01/18/2015
Have the taskbar concept down, though I've yet to make most of it. But now it's well within days until I can finish the visual style itself.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The theme pack will - if everything goes according to plan - include (in addition to the Visual Style itself):
- Start orbs
- Shell style, navigation icons, clock
- Sound pack
- Cursors
- Matching icon pack with template and alternative styles
- Login screen
- Possibly a Rainmeter skin
- Maybe more - like media player and / or browser skins, wallpaper
The theme will be free to download.

It IS free, it's just that this one is an in-progress version.
The finished one is here:

The purchase - as always - is just an optional way to support me.

Not sure wether it's been asked already, but is there a possibility of getting just the soundpack? I tend to switch styles a lot on my pc, so I prefer changing everything by hand. Item by Item, if you get me

There is. If I recall correctly it's located in ...Themes\SAO folder somewhere (you can manually add system voices from control panel), but if you have it installed (but switched to other theme) you can probably just copy the the SAO.theme file's lines to your new theme, and it will apply the same sound scheme.

Windows 10 RS1 version, please [as soon as RS1 is released of course]. I've been hearing RS1 will be released in a couple weeks [not sure of the exact date].

so far i've managed to cobble this thing together (which is thanks in no small part to this skin being thoroughly organised) but i cant seem to get the min/max/close buttons right; they're all laterally compressed, except for the outer rings, those are fine. and the hovers for the taskbar and start menu are also unchanged.

I was wondering if I could get a tutorial to do this without having to use administrator privileges. I am on a laptop that I use at school.

I'm really not sure, but I don't think so.
If it involves basic changes to system files, Windows will probably not let you if you don't have admin rights.

There is a issue with Icon and Notifications on the taskbar expanding exponentially. (Windows 7 x64).
Is there a recommended Resolution for it? Because the Start menu's Shut Down button is only saying Shut Do...
EDIT - Besides that, its amazing! I love it!

Thank you!
I've just fixed the notification area expanding issue! If you re-download the theme it should be fine now!

Not sure, probably this week, especially if the guy I had in mind for doing the port replies fast.

Almost certainly. Though as I've seen, there are quite some good ones around already...

Just made an alternative icon pack (for smaller icons and system files); now making an iconpackage of it, then finishing the installer, then upload (with my current 16 kbps limited net)... I'd say I have good chances to finish within 2-3 hours or so

On windows 8.1 I use Start8, will the startbar be compatible with it or are you going to focus on metro?

Making the misc stuff (rest of the icons, login screen, sounds, installer) takes more than I expected, but will probably finish it today.

Currently working to finish the 7 version (hoping will do so tonight), so probably a few days after that. I'd say sometime next week for sure.

I'll try to, though I'll update the description on this page. I've been working on it for the last 10 hours, hope I'll be able to finish in the next 10 or so
If not, it'll probably be finished tomorrow.
