Benotti Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Extract it to C:/Windows/Fonts or use the Fonts Control Panel Applet to install them :D Cheers, worked like a charm. Do you also know how to install the icons from the first post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobey Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Cheers, worked like a charm. Do you also know how to install the icons from the first post? 1, U can replace most icons one by one manualy. 2, U may use IconPackager to replace all of them one by one. 3, U may use IconPackager to replace all of them by vista iconpackage (.ip or .iptheme) created by others. I agree...a full shell style (top and bottom) would be awesome. Is it possible to have different folders display different colored shell styles in WB5 though? That would be cool. Here's a little screenie of my computer in 5231: That's awesome. I used to try to make that by modiying shellstyles. But the problem is u can have only one of them showing info at a time. Top or Bottom? ur choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benotti Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 1, U can replace most icons one by one manualy. How? Do I need to drag and drop all the icons? And where to? I tried searching for a filename to see whether I could find icons with the same name, but the search found nothing :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GatorV Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 Read the Readme!, open the skin in Skin Studio and then on the file menu go to Tools > WindowBlinds > Import shell style file and re-apply the skin :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didnt get the new look of the folders as in Longhorn Inspirat or the blue bit of bricopack vista bricopack i applied the msstyle in skinstudio, but didnt get any result. As of icons, i use iconpackager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meshuggah Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Great theme! I just have one question... I am running IE7 Beta 1 on XP SP2, and there is an ugly dark grey color to the right of the tabs...is there anyway to skin this space? or replace the color in the theme? Download Styler and Use the Bister Toolbar http://stylefantasist.com/page1/download.html http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/23872821/ in Styler Settings In Toolbar Tab, check "Hide Menubar(IE) in Info Tab, Check "Styler TB Mode" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke D Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Also when i added the horizontal shell style the pretty please wait messages were replaced by the default windows one... is there a fix for this?? Any1??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wommers Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 I hear ya Duke D. I've tried several times to apply shellstyle and get the same results. read me file instructions not hard to understand. both the 'please wait' and 'shutdown confirmation' in the old luna shellstyle makes me wanna gag. Benotti - whats up with the 'shift+f9 to apply'? :wacko: :blink: :wacko: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phun8890 Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 With the version 3 new start menu, the "log off" and "turn computer" off button don't work. hopefully there will be a fix for it soon. Everything else works fine so far. Only the start menu buttons need to be fix. To show you what I mean't, I have attached a picture with my post. No hurry in fixing this, just wanting to point it out incase no one notice. thanks for the great skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No hurry in fixing this, just wanting to point it out incase no one notice. thanks for the great skin. Well this shows you didn't read the readme file. ;) "In all BETA 2 versions the log off buttons on the Start Menu doesn't work. The buttons are hidden in the white area. The buttons can't be done that way because WindowBlinds dont have control over that text. I made it that way to keep the feel of the Window Vista Beta 2 concept."

Benotti Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 Benotti - whats up with the 'shift+f9 to apply'? :wacko: :blink: :wacko: To apply the horizontal shell style you just loaded.

KoL Veteran Posted December 2, 2005 Author Veteran Share Posted December 2, 2005 Sorry guys for not posting these days. I've been very very busy. Thanks to those that have been answer question of other members :) Well skin skin have been removed from WinCusomize once again. :rolleyes: Microsoft contacted Brad about the skin and he hd to take it down.

No, they just asked Brad to remove the skin from WinCustomize. The skin still up on deviatnART and GetSkinned and I wont remove them unless they contact me and explai why only my skin. Im making some update to the skins and I'll upload it soon. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pas Posted December 2, 2005 Share Posted December 2, 2005 xxhiroshi21xx, the skin was taken down at wc due to microsoft's demands, not due to stardock or wincustomize's wishes. also, stardock is comminucating with ms trying in an attempt to allow the skin to be posted on wc. if ms had demanded any other skin to be removed, it would've been taken down, also. why ms singled out kol's is a mystery to me unless it has something to do with kol's placement of the loggoff/shutdown button images in his latest release. blaming stardock and/or wincustomize for this is not the correct thing to do. if microsoft agrees to it, the skin will be posted on wc once again.
