hi i was wondering if there is a good y'z toolbar theme out there at will make explorer lool more like a mac...(ie with the back and forward buttons connected and other common features found in panther/tiger
also if there is an alternative to y'z toolbar can someone please tell me about it...

Check out Styler.

[zondajag]

i did but you have to pay which is annoying...also the toolbars won't work for me on the trial version....(i have a patched uxtheme.dll)

search for finderexplorer

[zondajag]

um i'd prefer not to use a third party app...is there a theme to make the buttons look like they do on the mac?
anyway i can't find finderexplorer anywhere on google

[icexswipe]

umm if ur referring to finderexplorer then ur mistaken, its not a 3rd part app.
its a combination of y'z toolbar and a background image

finderexplorer and styler are the only ways to get it to look like a mac

[zondajag]

o cool... sorry about that...anyway i can't seem to find finderexplorer can you give me a link?

[zondajag]

....o come one don't leave me in suspense here...does anyone have a link to finderexplorer?

[icexswipe]

heres the thread regarding the finderexplorer method - http://www.aqua-soft.org/board/showthread....hlight=spybreak

furthermore many guikits and vs include finderexplorer bmps and y'z toolbar theme to complement them
mostly susumus themes and a few others like chlorine - http://www.deviantar.../view/14997577/

THAT SCREWED UP MY PC BIG TIME LOL- i did what the tutorial said and what happened was horrible....i had lost all of my buttons and i was ledt with a flurry of buttons scattered across my explorer windows....and to top it off as soon as i used replacer my norton antivirus went balistic and caused everything to go to a grinding halt...maybe a new tutorial has to be produced for the people who don't know what they are doing- ie (in this case) me!

[zondajag]

can someone please tell me how to install a finderexplorer theme in detail for win xp sp2 final....also can you tell me if i can easily revert back to a normal y'toolbar theme?

[icexswipe]

u gotta stop double posting

run the reg file ive attached to get rid of the file edit view menu
then grab tweakui from microsoft and set the finderexplorer bmp as the toolbar background, and obiously use the y'z toolbar theme provided

its pretty simple, i dont know why you havent been able to figure it out

[icexswipe]

yes just enable the address bar if u want it back

[zondajag]

yes um i tried this and the address bar(not that i had it there in the first place) and the menu bar went away...but the buttons don't line up...also there is hardly and functionality...al i have is a back button that works...someone told me that there was a way to make the buttons work as well as look good with finderexplorer

[zondajag]

oh great i didn't know the themes had to be specific to the finderexplorer themes!...how can i work round this also

[zondajag]

oo im looking forward to getting this to work- yep works but isn't great...needed tweaking to match my current visual style....pm me if you want to reply to this post...for whatever reason you might have
