Nice looks great with many of my apps. By the way rridgely how are you liking the Ashampoo burner program?
this theme is dead sexy. i think i might revive the Themes service so that i can use it.
I think it looks awesome! It makes XP look pretty close to Vista...at a glance anyways. I can't tell if its based off of Luna or Royale though.
If I had XP I would definitely use it. While we're on the subject, does anyone know of any way to change Windows 2000's appearance?

Thanks for that! I like this one.
start bar turns green when clicked:
Thanks for that! I like this one.
Shame you have to uninstall Royale to use it though

I didn't.
Anyway I found a better one on my pc that I had already.
I didn't.
From the above link: "If you already have Royale installed, you?ll need to remove it as both of these skins share the same name."
It doesn't show up in the drop down menu but you can still go to the theme folder and click the other one.(whatever the black one is called noir?)
Edit: Here is a pic
rridgely, where can I download that blue theme you are using?
To be honest I don't remember where I got it. I believe it was from kol on deviant art but it was while ago when I downloaded it.(I didn't see it on that site when I just checked). I uploaded it for you though.
Let me know when you have it, I don't want to leave it attached for long.
I've got it. Thanks man!
Its a nice theme. It has a couple of different colors but I like the blue the best.
Edit:
You have to have a modified uxtheme.dll. You can download that here:

Then you just put the file I gave you in C:\windows\resources\themes and double click it.
Sweet, thanks!
Hmm I followed the instructions to a T, but when I double click on the file, it just brings up the Display properties window and there are no more options in the drop down menu. I'm lost at this point.
Maybe you didn't change uxtheme right? Just to make sure try this theme too:
If that one works let me know.
No that one didn't work either. So I tried re-copying that .dll file into System32, but now its giving me an error that says something about the file being in use and it won't let me replace it, even immediately after a fresh reboot. I'm not sure what to do now, but I appreciate your help.

Thanks for that Rridgley.I reckon it's pretty darn good and a keeper here.
Just so everyone knows... this theme does not install correctly. If you notice the theme is a mix of the zune and classic theme. The shell style is not installed correctly. To fix this go to c:windows:resources:themes:zune and create a new folder called "Shell" and inside the shell folder create another folder called "NormalColor" move the shellstyle.dll from the zune folder into the normalcolor folder and reapply the theme. Now the tasks list in the shell will be themed correctly, as well as other areas. Now go to somewhere like My Documents and see the difference. I love the orange start button btw.
