Clearscreen Sharp – Vista Theme
Vista Visual Styles, Windows Vista ThemesArtist: K-Johnson
Artists comments:
Hey all,
I’ve been working on this theme since last year. I redid 99% of the images in the .msstyles, and left the ones I didn’t know alone. Lots of little details and hackish (but working) implementations… which 99% of it you won’t notice :/ (alignment, for instance). I’m not satisfied with it yet, but I figured I might as well upload them for you guys who are still enjoying Windows Vista (me included). Windows 7 is supposed to be released soon, and I will likely upgrade and update the theme whenever I get the time to.
Remember that this theme is in the BETA phase. Only two others have used it, and neither reported anything back to me, so I suppose it works well enough? I played around with lots of apps while using this theme to ensure that the theme doesn’t break the usability of your programs — pleased to say that it worked well with all my programs!
This theme works on x86 and x64 (32 bit and 64 bit windows)
PERSONAL NOTE
This is not a ‘designer’ theme. I wanted this theme to be usable, functional and accessible. I had originally started doing the *.dll mods but it became very time consuming and confusing for me — if you would like to help me on this part, please send me a message! I will credit you here
Anyway, I omitted the *.dll which is why the navigation and shutdown buttons are the same (they are located in another DLL file), but would like to continue on these parts.
/etc: I used Photoshop CS3 and Vista Style Builder to create these themes.
