Window Skins and Customizing by zach on 07-16-2005 at 05:08 AM
Is there any other good program for skinning windows other than Window Blinds? If there isn't, how do I stop that pop-up when logging in?

Just use this... For more skin's you can look at www.neowin.net in the forum...
In the section "customizing windows"... It's pretty easy to use and look's great ^^...

Okay I'll have a look at them. Any ideas on how to stop the annoying pop-up when I login? I will never buy Window Blinds...

In ObjectDock, I want to use 'SysStats 2.5.6' to view CPU Usage %, Ram Used % etc. I got it working once, but can't get it working anymore.
If someone can post how to get it working, could you please tell me.
Edit: 
AAARRRRRGGGGGGGGG! I just uninstalled ObjectDock and lost my saved theme.

neowin.net has the patch that you just run and it lets you use .mssstyle and all the other themere files, no prgram no ads no paying
get it here http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=308905

We don't assist with that here. You with a post-count of 100+ should know that already. I suggest you go through the rules again before you find yourself banned.
I'm curious how you got the full version of WindowsBlinds, when you clearly said you won't pay for it.
Stop discussing warez, you people don't seem to get it. All I've seen these past few days+ is people ignoring the rules. It pisses me off.

That's a common factor on every forum, there are some people who don't seem to abide by the rules, but to be honest, that's only the minority, it's not that much of a problem on this forum luckily

Does this really work, I don't like having stylexp and this would be really useful for me, I'm hesitant on trying it out, as it would, of course, require uninstalling StyleXP, and I don't want to have to go through everything I usually have to do when I download stylexp
.
RE: Window Skins and Customizing by EvilSeph on 07-19-2005 at 01:19 PM
It does work..
That's exactly what StyleXP does when it installs, it places their modified version of a .dll in place of the one on your system then puts it back when you uninstall.

The major problem is though, that the only files I have are Windows Visual Styles, for them to run in the display options and be selectable, I need to be able to create Windows Theme files out of these, do you know how I can do this?

(i guess, i havent installed a theme for quite a while, cause i'm using one Silver and Black for about 4 or 5 months now..)I also use Neowin's patch and it works like a charm
RE: Window Skins and Customizing by user27089 on 07-19-2005 at 01:37 PM
I know where to put it any everything, the problem is that the display configuration will only recognise Windows Theme files, not Windows Visual Style files... I need something that will make a visual style save as a theme file, like the "Save as" in the display thing.

No you don't. They're listed in the display options. Infact, after you extract a visual style, double click on the .msstyle and it'll change the theme of your Windows for you and open up the display options, where you will see it has been added to the list.

I had Sysstats and Calendar 3.4 working, but they don't anymore.
I don't think that the Stardock programs are uninstalling properly because it should solve my problems. Now in WindowBlinds, The start icon and panel don't have a smooth finish. This is getting annoying.![[Image: encoded5bd.png]](http://img210.imageshack.us/img210/1081/encoded5bd.png)
