Description:

Had to add my own contribution to the massive amounts of Vista themes. Hope you like it, dont flame me too much! :)

Should be lightweight since it's under IceWM (about same resource consumption as Fluxbox). Use as Window decoration or as it's own environment.

Please let me know if anything doesn't work/looks bad/needs fixing/etc.

Anyways, enjoy!

Update 1: Removed transparent pixmap as border, found a workaround.

Fixed corner size so it displays the corners properly

Also, sorry for low quality screenshot, 300kb limit is a bit harsh on a 1600x1200 image.

I have this on (at least) 9 installs of my Linux systems - I love the look, the style and the Irony!Running IceWM on top of a far superior OS (PuppyLinux + Mint DE) is just FANTASTIC! Top Notch Work, my friend = LOVE IT (and IceWM 4 EVER!). :-P

Nice theme BUT the menu on my system is screwed up. Selected items are garbage.

I was in the middle of taking the silver XP theme and making my own black version of it, got bored, looked here for some other kinds of themes, and voila: I found this one.

Thanks for a beautiful theme and saving me a lot of trouble!!!

Hope you don't mind, but for my own use, I changed the start button from the Windows look. :)

as it was packed into a zip-archive
a script like that should be run both in
theme directory (/usr/share/icewm/themes/VistaBlack/) and in its taskbar subdir in order to restore links
----cut-----
#!/bin/sh
for i in `ls *.xpm`
do
if [ "`wc -w $i`" = "1 $i" ]
then
ln -f `cat $i` $i
fi
done
----cut-----

repack it pls

looks good but I'm curious about which system monitor you have running in your screenshot.

The system monitor in the screenshot looks like Conky http://conky.sourceforge.net/

Well that explains why I didn't recognize it, I don't use KDE. I love my openbox too much I guess. I suppose I could install just what's needed to use this "Conky" though...

Thanks for the info :)
