@lokster: apparently, been using Styler and WB5 for the longest while now. No problems yet, actually, wla pa gyud.. sum slow down maybe in slower PCs but haven't noticed it in my PC (which by todays standard is now midrange) Yeah, haven't heard of styler until I perused the forums in Aqua-soft http://www.aqua-soft.org . Daghan diay nagamit ane bro, and most of their screenshots, they use styler to mod their toolbars. Now I'm at it too.. Just try it..

hmmm.. naka try nako sa styler.. some how.. magka conflict cla sa WB... like color scheme and fonts and so on..

[lokster]

how about just patching your uxtheme.dll? theres a patcher thats great and lets u use usigned microsoft themes. that will also change the toolbar. :mrgreen:
and i dunno about getting the full version of WB5 if u know what i mean

transperency is solved by
YAFVC3 1.5(there you have to replace modyfied explorer.exe) - havent tested this yet. still having fun with avedesk and topdesk

@wendellmb try avedesk and topdesk. really great for mac like emulation through xp

been using avedesk until konfabulator came.. and even before avedesk i used samurize..
Konfabulator BTW is now Yahoo! Widgets..

Na adik kog konfabulator karon.. Been using this in my mac for years (No, I did not upgrade to tiger huhuhu...) and when it came to the PC na adik ko.. has been on my PC for months and naghuot na gyud ang desktop. hahahha...

Anyway, I'm bored of all the vista stuff.. please stop.. luod na kaau.. I mean, I was amazed at first at the look, but I got bored of it so quickly, unbelievably quick. I mean, there was this WB theme which lasted for months, it was food by KoL.. pretty good stuff he has.. he also made the vista skin which was removed by microsoft from dozens of sites..

i also love kol's visualstyle (studiotwentyeight.com), i think the foood vs is called sustenance. but anyways, try here http://www.trucsenvrac.com/forum/for...ay.php?fid=229 for non-vista icon transformation packs... the site is in french btw.

[wendellmb]

@lokster... yup.. naka try ko last year.. ni undang lang kog gamit kay na pul-an nako...

styler 1.401 is now freeware! google it. happy modding

[Nezumix22]

@lokster: mag styler na diay ka karon? hehehe.. yeah.. it's now freeware, though I got a license months before, sumtyms u have to befriend the authors..

Anyway, to avoid conlficts with WB5 when using styler, use the TB only mode.. that way it's only the toolbar that's running.. and not the VS..

[lokster]

good point, ive been using styler since it got freeware. hehehe i dont know any of the authors but good for you!
