IMAGE PREVIEW
To the current preview i have modified and remake a wallpaper which is not included to the pack , as the original maker is Nagy Norbert [link] from Hungary, so credits goes to him for his work.
Anyone of you who want the original wallpaper can download from [link] and fave him as his work is amazing.
i have permission to upload my modified version so [link]
========================================
APPEARANCE AND WORKING WITH THE THEME
My lion mac osx style work is not just a theme. With new code added to Windows system files , Windows becomes behaving like Mac OS X .
When forinstance we select a folder as 'icon', we have separate mouse over image for the folder and other image for the text.
When we select a folder as 'details' we can have stripes, and mouse over images like mac os X , blue hover and white text .
With additional code added to shell32.dll the Preview Pane setted to Top, and Details Pane setted to right (like to osx) .
Also Folderband (is the command bar i which is written 'Organise', 'Open' etc) is included to the preview pane.
That means that if we press to the keyboard Alt+P Preview pane appears --> also Folderband at the top of Preview pane.
Now via Folderband we can select 'Organise' -->' layout' and then select which pane we want to appear (for example we select Details pane) or deselect that we dont want.
if we want to dissappear Preview Pane we press again to the keyboard Alt+P .
Attention: if both Preview Pane and Details Pane are appeared, then we will have this kind of appearance:
Details pane will give the preview of the current file or folder we select with our mouse and also the details text description of it
Preview pane will give the preview of the folder that contains the selected file or folder. [except if the current file is a text or music file or video]
now if we want to have to the Preview pane the preview of the current file or image etc we must first close the Details pane.
Also, if we like to have always shown the Folderband just open the preview pane and set the vertical slider at his minimum position to the top[so no more space to be used].
============
THEME CATEGORIES AND IDEA BACKGROUND
Main categories of visual styles: Transparent, Brushed, Gray.
Names and styles of Themes:
Diafania [=transparency] - 2 versions ---> transparent
Ares [=Mars] - 2 versions --> brushed
Leon [= Lion] - 2 versions --> gray
the names of the visual styles/themes are based to the ancient and modern Greek language
On screenshot , down window there exist some of a portrait of Alexander the Great(=Alexandros) who unified all Hellenes=Greeks ie (Peloponisians , Thessalians , Macedonians, Athenians, Cretans etc ].
IN ancient and in nowdays Hellenic (=Greek) [Active CODE] language, every letter, and every word is a specific number, and it has a specific meaning.
ZEUS ( or DEUS or DIAS) is Master of immortal Gods in Hellenic (=Greek) Active CODE [arithmetic machine logic] language, and APPLE is the given gift from ZEUS .
So the name of the THEME choosen from Hellenic = GREEK language and civilization.

i have stopped, i dont know if i could give something about ie9.
i have not used LogonStudio, but you can do this, copy paste my imageres.dll to your desktop, download restorator trial mode, and extract IMAGES from imageneres.dll so then you will have the background i used, so to use it in case you want.
----------

Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately I extracted that image and its just an icon at low resolution, nothing comparable to the logon image of your theme.
Too bad for IE9, that deserved a better skin style Mac
π: 0 β©: 0
I would have a curiosity, the image of the logon screen of your theme Zeusx64 in what location is it?
π: 0 β©: 1
I issue so, because in C/Windows/Web/Wallpaper/info there isnt that image, however I have to say that it do good effect as logonscreen.
Congratulations again for the excellent work, indeed lacking only thing: modified ieframe to safari look

do you think it will be possible in the next have a fingerbar like that of FingerXP on W7? or at least stylize Explorer menu buttons like of Mac OS?
π: 0 β©: 1
i have stopped because many problems in real life.
in theory, a solution could be made in 2 possible ways:
if microsoft gives this ability adding new code to the frameworks library [to a new version of windows though since now i have not see anything ], and we know the new location of the code for modify or add new parameters etc
or if i we could find a solution to 'manage' the code of search pane so to be added some commands like those of folderband for example the button for changing the folders to icons, details etc , [but that possible will destroy the search pane of start menu], as addressbar since is hardcodded and not possible be 'managed'.[we can delete it if we want but not add something in place of it].
or perchaps (in theory always) via an aplication made with visual basic.
=============================================

Thanks for reply.
Given the problems that you said, do you think in the future release other mod for W7?
All the best

I had solved another program was using the shortcut Alt + P for what did not go out the preview
π: 0 β©: 1
oh yes, look i had a similar problem with a friend's laptop where the problem was more important, as that [same] becomes because the keyboards drivers are not good, so no alt + p could used. i got angry, but what i could do to that, so i search myself finding a solution for my friend, and at least found this :
writte to your search osk [or on screen keyboard]
find it and pin this to your taskbar for having it anytime you want it.
then open it, select a window , for example my computer,[its important to do this] and then from the on screen keyboard press alt + p
it works, so i solve with this method the wrong drivers problem.
but if a program use this combination, then you have to change to that program the combination, so only windows to use Alt+p (as also because this is the original microsoft use of the operating system).

this here is a personal mac osx aproach for windows 7.
os x is best and most beautifull os in appearing mode [and also in the way that user cooperates with the computer]
========================
π: 0 β©: 0
Something wrong is with file ExplorerFrame.dll. Instead of mac os x look i have icons at orange background. Can u help me to solve this problem ? I replaced original file and effect is orange background it dont look good.
π: 0 β©: 1
this is not normal.
what is the name of your grapic card? propably there is drivers problem, translating the semi transparent blue color to orange.
if none of those i have written to you to your next comment, works , just let me know.
--------
π: 0 β©: 0
why my folders background is orange and not like ur white-blue or white-grey ? its not working properly How can i fix it ? Its going about file ExplorerFrame.dll
π: 0 β©: 1
propably it is a graphic card's drivers problem, 'translating' in wrong mode the colors.
make a restore point.
now, first try to see if there is any new driver update for your graphic card.
then go to :
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Performance Information and Tools
select on top left :
Adjust visual effects
a new small window appears, select as for an experiment :
Adjust for best appearing
see if something changes.
---
use cmy latest visual style [link]
as i show in the past that some graphic cards dont translate the colors as should, to that theme i have put more compact and less semi transparent colors.
(semi transparent is best quality and need alot of time for made them, though as i said some graphic drivers does not 'translate them' as should)
--------------
if none of this work
perchaps there is an option, [as some times dont appear all the choices to a pc, depending drivers etc, to calibrate the colors of appearance .
(some graphic cards have their manufacture programm for this, forexample ATI has a Catalyst programm, Nvidia also etc, if there is no such try to see the options of your system , go to your start menu and to search writte : calibrate display color
and make your experiments with the adjust color balance )
------
π: 0 β©: 1
also you can go to
Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Display\Screen Resolution
select advance settings ----> color management --> color managment ---> advanced and then see if some changes fix anything, such as change the
device profile or the Default rendering intent etc
---
also see this [link] (this tool is for vista, i hope it works for 7 too)
[for anyway, before all make a restore point so to return if some of your changes is annoying you, and you dont know what to do ]
---
if after all nothing happens tell me.

π: 0 β©: 1
pressning alt + p we open the preview pane with the folderband , in the folderband to the left side there is a choice named 'organise', select it, then a menu opens select 'layout' then deselect 'details pane'.
then press again alt + p and we dissapear also the preview pane (and the folderband).

how bout the memory usage of this themes,sir??
π: 0 β©: 1
the only that makes 'heavier' my system files is that because i use larger size of icons, so its the icons the 'problem'
my pc is an old 2005 model and works fine, if that answers to you.
(make a restore point, use it, and if you dont find comfortable , restore your system)

Hi hi, please let me travel to the future and explain what I'll be facing when I finally format my windows to install win7 x64 and of course will be installing this theme.
So this is the problem:
I started to use "aerobar" to bring back the title for each window in the default position which is left corner, sadly, it doesn't look good on your themes which makes me sad because they are well designed and stylish. SO getting to the point, is there any way to move the position of the windows title to the center?
I researched a bit and if I'm not mistaken, it's about a light editing to the .msstyles file of the theme. Could you do that or tell me what to do to move the title text of each window from the left to the center?
PS: Again, amazing work dude!
π: 0 β©: 1
only this is possible to windows basic, not to aero.
(except if via small utility via visual basic commands, but i dont know if its possible to explorer. to Paint is already setted to center)
------------------
π: 0 β©: 1
Yea, paint and most of the MS Office programs have their titles centered. Too bad it can't be applied easily in your themes

Zeusosx This looks very nice but I am having trouble doing it all, I am a noob when it comes to the system 32 file stuff and dont want to stuff anything up so if you could help make the steps easyer? or make a youtube video link me on the full installation of this program theme that would be great! I understand better then it is being shown to me.....? HELP?
π: 0 β©: 1
sorry i have no time, for video but ....:
the most important is : go to Control pane [view by category] -->so Go to Control Panel\User Accounts and Family Safety\User Accounts and press the folder 'Change User Account Control Settings' set the slider to the next window Never Notify.
Restart . ok?
then Obtain Permisions and Ownership of ExplorerFrame.dll, imageres.dll, shell32.dll that located in C:\Windows\System32 and and do also the same for explorer that located in C:\Windows\ . (use the "Obtaining Permissions and ownership.txt" for help on installing)
video example of taking ownership to a random system file
[link] internet explorer compatible (if you see this little video , you can understand how ease is to do this , just be carefull)
also do the same to the same files to c:\windows\syswow64 , you need to edit the same files in both folders system32 and syswow64 folder as in x64 version there is doubles of all files.
Backup you original ExplorerFrame.dll, imageres.dll, shell32.dll and explorer by renaming them to ExplorerFrame.old, imageres.old, shell32.old and explorer.old
c. Copy ExplorerFrame.dll, imageres.dll, shell32.dll from this pack to C:\Windows\System32 and and explorer to C:\Windows .
[for the BRUSHED and the TRANSPARENT Themes copy the ExplorerFrame.dll from the '1. buttons light blue HOVER ' folder, for the GRAY leon[lion] copy the ExplorerFrame.dll from the '2. buttons gray HOVER' folder, of this pack.
and NOW please Download my sp1 32 BIT version from [link] , open the foler '32 bit Dll files', copy and replace the files that existed to c:\windows\syswow64
Restart to see the changes.
---------------------
this was about the replacing of the system files. ok?
--------
now about the themes is:
To use the visual styles ( mstyle) , you must install a small application, download from [link] .
Then restart your system.
2. Copy the folder 'OS X Cursors' , to C:\Windows\Cursors .
Copy the 'Mac os X Wallpapers' of this pack to C:\Windows\Web\Wallpaper.
Copy the 'Mac os X sounds' of this pack to C:\Windows\Media .
3. Copy all the folders included in the folder 'Macos X Themes by ZEUSosx' [after unzip all files, and copy them to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes ,provided C is your Windows drive).
Open there ["C:\Windows\Resources\Themes"] and choose the theme name you like, select it, double clik tand thats it.
---------------
its not diificult. infact with this method you learn what you use and where, to your system.
if you have any questions ask me. (64bit instructions [link] )

thank you very much anauar.

dont work... ive changed the datas, but if i click on the style, nothing changes ...
π: 0 β©: 2
before do anything , just restart and try to apply any of the themes. if again nothing happened:
2 main reasons :
1. Copy all the folders included in the folder 'Macos X Themes by ZEUSosx' [after unzip all files, and copy them to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes ,provided C is your Windows drive).
so Copy all the folders that are insided in the folder 'Macos X Themes by ZEUSosx' to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes and not the folder 'Macos X Themes by ZEUSosx'
2. some specific microsoft updates make the uxcore utility [the small application that enables your system using 3rd party visual styles/themes , like mines] stop working.
now becarefull you have not reinstall.
if you do its possible the problem remained.
So, go to Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features amd UNINSTALL first the uxcore application, then restart.
now INSTALL uxcore application, then restart.
then go to to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes and apply the theme you want
