I Need Help WIth A Custom Skin

hi all, im new on this, and just like all, im a little crazy because all the conmotion about the vista, and all that.

i recently download a few skins (msstyles) of vista, and all that skins have something, with another dont have, :/, i mean, for example the tool bar is not like i want (in black) or the.....tool of work.. logo is not like i want,.....and i always change the skin (msstyle) because i always find a skin witch have that.

(forget my english is not very well)

what i want to do, is "easy" (i think?)......at least i find 90% of 1 skin i like, but "something is wrong"..and i want to "reemplace" that wrong thing with out change all the skin

the skin i like call´s: Radium Vista Pack

but the thing "nice" i found in another skin and i want to put in the radium vista pack i found it on:

vista xp v2 build it by Kol.

the bad thing is:

i read in a few forums, you can replace this such of things in windows with dll´s files..... but i dont know the name of dll file witch remplace this thing....

maybe some one can helpme,... and tell me who i can make this thing.....

i know my english really sucks, but :/ i hope the idea "understand"

First you need to get permission from the authors to edit them...

ok mr...... sorry about that, my mistake

i want to make a new one skin based on vista, but in msstyle.

so , wheare i can find info of what dll´s i can edit (who contains) images of gui windows? for example the tool bar , the buttons of the explorer, and the bar who contains minime, maximize, and close... buttons? ...

can you provide me, or anybody some type of info, somethig like a tutorial?..

You would need stylebuilder(payware) to edit a msstyle.

#406898

but the "style builder" require´s style xp, and style xp is a program like windows blinds, and i dont want to.. relentize my computer, with this tipe of program.....

i want to edit the dll´s files and build my own ms style

There's no editing of .dll files when you're using .msstyles. StyleBuilder doesn't actually require StyleXP--it can save its own .msstyles.
