Joel Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 Depends what he's using. Maybe Windowblinds, maybe StyleXP or the uxtheme.dll patch. Ask him.

nazgul Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 Umm... why not just ask your friend? Seems the most logical choice to start with... then we can prolly tell you where to find it.

adamp2p Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 That's such an unhelpful comment and the sort I'm getting fed up with. Yes, I agree. You see some people are so uncreative. I like to make my computer look many different styles, especially the newer bose styles. For elegant mac ports, I highly advise Kol's mods. They are available at www.studiotwentyeight.net ; also if you go to www.macthink.net look for a panther port by Kso. The whole site is written in Spanish, so go to descargas to find the VS.

Spike Killer Posted January 10, 2004 Author Share Posted January 10, 2004 Well, the intitial program worked. But when my friend tried to put on the Mac toolbar, an error occured and Windows would not boot up. I had to re-install windows.

Raum Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Why would you want to make your computer look like a mac?? If you want a friggin mac, go BUY A FRIGGIN MAC!!!Just my .02 Because I like the way the mac looks, but I prefer USING windows, using the windows only software that I use, upgrading my PC instead of buying a new mac and so on. Basically, beyond looks, there isn't jack about a mac that attracts my attention, so instead of using a mac and sacrificing many things I enjoy just for looks, I make windows look like one. How you find that illogical is far beyond me. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/130378-make-windows-looks-like-a-mac/#findComment-1582351 Share on other sites More sharing options...

russellc Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 there's lots of stuff you can use...windowblinds has themes that make the caption buttons go to the left, etc while visual styles just change the way it looks and not the positioning...objectbar acts as the toolbar at the top and most of its themes remove the menus to the toolbar like in a mac...and as for a dock i would use objectdock..if you're using firebird, there's a theme that looks like safari. and as for icons, there's a lot at iceman's page...as for itunes, there's the actual itunes or a qcd player that looks just like it.. shadows, you can use yz shadow...i can probably get you anything to make windows look like a mac except the paid for stuff..i've been at that stage before :p Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/130378-make-windows-looks-like-a-mac/#findComment-1585230 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducane Posted January 11, 2004 Share Posted January 11, 2004 Why would you want to make your computer look like a mac?? If you want a friggin mac, go BUY A FRIGGIN MAC!!!Just my .02 A lot of Windows users who want their desktops to "look like Mac's", don't actually want all the elements of the Mac OS interface, just the graphics. I myself wouldn't mind Mac OS X style buttons, colors, etc., but I certainly would not want to have to switch back to an application-based interface such as that of OS X.
