Hello all. This is the easiest theme in the world to install. It's the zune theme. I'll have many more themes yet to come, so check back. I have recently discovered that some people do not know of the windows scheme changing. It is truely sad that some are forced to live with those awful windows colors such as blue, silver, and olive green. Here is a new theme I found. It's not as good as mine, but it's a heck of a lot easier to install and use than one of the hacker created themes. Here's what it looks like:

Here is the download link to install this windows theme:

I have personally tested this on 4 computers and I know it works. Although I don't use this theme personally, this would be my second choice. I hope you enjoy it!

♪"And that old man is meeee!"♪
Seriously, though, I've lived with those three colors since I ever used XP, and I don't find them "awful". It would be good if there were as many colors for the 'XP style' as there were for the 'Classic style'. However, I don't hardly do any theme or screen saver downloading. Those themes of your's actually remind me of Vista -- too much, actually, since there's a Vista computer in the household, and I loathe Vista with a passion. Too buggy, too many compatibility issues, too much anything that makes using a computer harder to use than it should be. Do you have anything that won't remind me of Macintosh incarnate?

NEW THEME! Please tell me in this topic if you want it. I don't want to upload something that no one wants. Here's some screenshots of this new theme:

NOTE: this theme comes in black instead of blue as well. It is just one of the options that comes with it. No need to ask for a different color. :)
The theme name is Assult2. Just ask for it!

NEW THEME! Spiderman! Not my style, but I'm sure one of you here would just love it!

Won't let me save them. :( :( It keeps asking if I want to save an htm file.
-
What a hunk of crap! I'll upload them using something else. what did you want Petrie?
-
PROTIP: Rename the files so that they end in ".msi" (no quote marks). That'll fix it.
Anyway, I'm a green kinda guy. Got 'nything in green?
-
I'm afraid I only have one green option. <_<
Also, it's not my file. I know how to make file extentions. Driveway.com screws it up and tries to save it as html sometimes. :(

NEW THEME! This one's called crystal:

Those themes are too complicated looking for my tastes. Do you have anything simple looking, like the default XP themes?
-
I'm afraid I only have one green option. <_<
'Kay. Can I see it? Unless you mean the default green…
Also, it's not my file. I know how to make file extentions. Driveway.com screws it up and tries to save it as html sometimes. :(
I meant rename the file when downloading it. I did it, and it worked.

Hmm, that Whisp one looks interesting. Can I has it?

Finally, a request! :yes
Here's wisp:

-
???
Isn't there supposed to be a .theme file?
-
you must exctract the files first. Then you can just double click the file called wisp and it will install automatically.
-
wisp.msstyles? I did. Didn't work.
-
just double click it and press ok. if it doesn't show up in the themes menu, restart and it should appear.
-
Raptor looks pretty nice. :D
-
Bah, I've got a download going. I'll try resetting later.
-
Okay Petrie. Here's raptor:

Incidentally, I had a dream last night where I had an XBOX 360 (I think it was the "vanilla version"). Weird, since I've never even wanted one that bad.
EDIT: Hahaha. You know what? I just download the Zune theme just to see what it would look like. It actually doesn't look as Vista-ish as I though it would (for one, I can't get the Vista style buttons to appear on the title bars of programs, but it's not like I wanted them to, anyway). I like the color styles. Simple, yet different. Though I can't get the Start button to be anything but orange on this theme. I still like it, though.
-
Resetting didn't work :(
-
I have recently discovered that you require a program to work with these themes. If you would meet me over msn, I would be happy to give it to you. I'm afraid that applying these themes without the assistance of that program is extremely difficult. I even had a hard time doing it. Anyways, meet me over msn and I'll give it to ya. :)
-
Do some of these themes require a program? Because when I downloaded the Zune theme, I got an MSI file (I had to add the .msi extension myself). All I had to do is install it. Are these others more complicated and not "the easiest theme
in the world to install"?
-
These other themes are almost impossible to install without my program, but with my program, they're even easier to install than the zune one. The zune theme is the only standalone theme BTW. The other one's such as raptor and wisp require that program. It's free, you just need to install the program and tell it to app;y the theme. :D

I'm interested in the Metallic Blue one. What's the install method on it? Does it install itself? Do I plop it myself in the Windows themes folder? Do I have to use some weird 3rd party program?
-
NEW THEME! I have no idea what this is, so I'm just going to call it theme X. I personally can't wait to get it off my computer. :P:

You need my program to apply it. I'm just going to post it here. To obtain a activation code, please pm me.
http://www.transferbigfiles.com/Get.aspx?i...f2-33a0a7bcee75 (http://www.transferbigfiles.com/Get.aspx?id=e4ea2f43-0bf2-428b-a7f2-33a0a7bcee75)
This is the trial version of the program. If you want the activation code, please pm me.
Please do not share your code with others. I have legally purchased these codes but I purchased too many by mistake. I bought one code for each of my computers, but in reality, one code covers up to 5 computers. I now have nearly 450 licenses that I no longer need and that I can give to others according to the end licence agreemant. Oh well. The program isn't expensive anyways.

Green!!
Can I have?
*puppy dog eyes*
Please?
-
LOL. sure. It's all yours. Just remember, you need my program I have above to use it:

I hope this works. I'm trying a new server box.
-
Ooh, thanks. This one rocks the house, yo.
-
Some of those are really busy and would interfere with my ability to read fonts. Not saying they're bad, but too much of subtle images and fancy coloring can really hurt ones eyes after being at computers for so much time at once.
-
I agree with you completely Petrie. I would only consider 4 out of my close to 900 themes to actually use myself. Most of these themes I find totally inappropriate and unappealing. It doesn't bother some people for some reason. Everyone likes something. :rolleyes:
-
I think, that wouldn¥t be a problem for me, that a background is make with souch colours. What I mean is, my eyes never hurt after I was at the PC. No matter how long
-
I hope you like your new theme Nimrod. I'll look for it next time you post something in the "show us your desktop" thread. :D
