Try patching the uxtheme.dll

found the pm. You are totally correct

Rogue Replacing the uxtheme.dll file with a hacked one will permit you to use themes without any other app 08/13/2005 10:36 PM

Rogue Yeah, the background is hosted on the WHAX bootable Linux distro website. Just search Google for WH

I am going to try and see if I can extract the Vista theme out because right now it is zipped up with the Window Blinds retail package
And while I appreciate that (I really do) I cannot post links to it here because it would constitute warez

 

[ZoomStop]

OK, it is up. I pulled out the VistaXP theme. I think you'll need Window Blinds 5 or higher.

thanks, i like iwndowsblind, but cant install it on my work maching, can put in a theme just not WB.

 

[Need4Speed]

slick theme...not a fan of windowblinds...but ill play around with it for a while. someone mentioned you can use it with uxtheme without trans and glass options...how is this done? the packages look entirely different.

 

[AznAnarchy99]

wow, need to make sure i save the files when i format. i downloaded his theme like 2 weeks before.

 

[archcommus]

Is Windows Blinds alright?

if indeed you can use the WB version then it needs to go to C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes

 

[Need4Speed]

per the link you cannot use a WB theme with msstyle uxtheme:

"obviously uxtheme.dll can't make use of visual styles in the WindowBlinds format."

 

[ShadowBlade]

[link removed] is an msstyles theme, obviously without object dock

rar=907KB if someone wants to host

or i could try and find the original site
You can also change it in display properties to put the names by the icons in the right column, but i prefer this way

i put it on glass beta 2. the glass effect didnt work. maybe cause the program is shareware? i dunno. or something is wrong with the install from that zip file posted?

 

[musicman64]

I'm having a heck of a time finding it as well, if anyone would be so gracious as to send it my way, it'd be much appreciated =)

The link to the VistaXP WindowsBlinds is above, hosted by Acid!

 

[archcommus]

And it's confirmed this is only usable through Windows Blinds?

You need the full version of windowblinds for the glass effects to work, atleast that is what I read.

ugh...i don't want to pay 20 bux for this

Tried VistaXP (found the msstyles version on a German website ... just search with google).
Doesn't work very well.

AeroXP works very well though and looks (IMO) even better.

I've been using this Bricopacs Vista Inspirat program and it's been pretty sweet.

Here's a screenshot Vista Inspirat

I don't really care for the vista style, already had one, but is there any way to get transparency in windows the same way it works in vista? I have glass2k to make the entire window transparent, but I like the way vista windows only have the toolbar as transparent.
