Do we know Vista skinning capabilities yet? Has anyone tried hacking the UXTheme?

That's the most weid thing i read this year.. Back To The Futur :P All want quite Luna (XP) for Vista or here preferably for Mac (Aqua or other) and now, a retro period before the officiel release of Vista (Just a Beta..2)

Nothing is impossible ;)

Sounds like a stupid idea, but it may work out.

#396834

Yeah vista in skinnable well at least beta is...

The UXTheme has already been patched by Rafael of AeroXperience. The MSStyles are a lot different, and there aren't any applications like StyleBuilder for Vista yet. But, if you people want to have a go at it, it would be neat to see some new styles. Of course, the MSStyles from Beta 2 will likely not work on the RTM version of Vista. But good luck anyways ;)

I look forward to see a Royale theme for Vista. :P

That's very stupid, but nothing beats the XP team for OS X ;)

I'll consider one. Apple almost got me to replace my aged Packard Bell desktop for Mac Mini. Then they wen't Intel, and jacked the price up. $599USD is cheap, but I can get HP Media Center Desktop for that on sale (with monitor, and printer).

I'll buy Apple when Apple stops acting like a premium PC brand. Or find a used iBook/PowerBook/MacBook (Pro) cheaply. Really. I will.;)

Back to our regularly scheduled programming:

I really wouldn't want to see Luna in Vista, but think of the Leopard skins...:cool:

After testing many builds of Windows Vista I think I will take my chances with it. :)

Why in the world would you want vista to look like xp :(

Windowblinds Vista can apply any MSStyle to Vista after converting it... it even extends it slightly to fill in any gaps that appear.
