bumping this ABOVE last week's thread. It's just obscene for this to be beneath it.

yeah id be glad to show what ive done in a little more depth also.

ENJOY

----

May I present the mac theme pics and how i got them. Total time to do all this, Id say 12 hours or so. Most of them were learning how to do it all.

AOL Instant Messenger - I hacked the aimres.dll file and changed the typical image to a custom made image.

Windows Media Player and Winamp - I just d/l some skins that are mac related

Control Panel Icons - I replaced various .cpl and .dll files to replace all the icons. Well most of them

My Computer I replaced the shell32.dll file. This changes all the default icons and folders.

My desktop I used StyleXP to get the basic mac look for the tool bar. I used YzDock for the menu on the bottom and YzShadow to get the mac shadows on all the stuff. My calender program is Rainlendar. Also i changed the stopobject.dll to change the volume control icon for the task bar. I also hacked the the winamp.exe to change the winamp icon taskbar which is not shown in the picture. the background is just something i found along my travels. also i use the rainlender program to display the calander and i use samurize for the weather, email, and uptime....

The rest are just various screenshots that are changed due to replacing dll files.

Explorer

Start menu 1

Start menu 2

Sign off

Turn off

System Properties


Comments? Feedback? Did you want see more screen shots? Just ask. I think that covers everything. Did i miss anything?


EDIT::: some of my skins have changed a little bit that are not shown hear. i just started using YzToolbar and have new skins for winamp. Other than that. everything is same i think......

yeah it takes a long time. i got so tired of doing it, i stopped backing up the orig files. it just so tedious to do.

reshack owns. i just cant get it to change the kazaa toolbar icon :\ when i change it kazaa wont run any more. oh well.
