great job
i will test it now

[eiffel_g]

Downloaded. I will test soon. but I believe that for theme I will keep MS Zune theme.

What about an Vista mod based on it ?

Alot of people have been saying the Zune theme pairs well with this... May consider it for the next release.

Thanks for the update!

[Zyx Maiden]

Hum... For me I prefer Luna Element 5.05 black compact msstyle.

But Zune may be a good choice too.

By the way, Good job Zedox with XPize Darkside 2.0 and also to good Job To Xpero for XPize

Is it necessary to uninstall XPize 4.6 before installing this? Thanks.

I think it is. XPize Darkside 2.0 is the standalone version... So it is recommanded to uninstall XPize 4.6 before to avoid competition between the two reloaders IMO. Maybe Zedox can confirm this...

[zedox]

Zyx Maiden is right, if you install both, both reloaders will try to reload the same files with their respective resources...

Not to mention installing one after the other will back up modified files from the previous installation creating havok when coming to uninstalling...

So in other words, Uninstall XPize before installing XPize Darkside

[Outcast]

Thanks a lot zedox!

P.S. By the way zedox, the History section of the official site is down.

I'm afraid he's right... Home, About, Screenshots, Downloads and Contact all work, but History (including the direct link you posted) gives a "Page not found" message, with an option to return to the homepage. BTW, it says to email webmaster@this.domain; I doubt if this will reach the right person.

[zedox]

does the entire page not work for you or just part? I've tried on different machines, works for me :S

[CBC]

I too get page not found on the History Link, using latest Firefox.

Many thanks for this new update zedox

[zedox]

Problem exists with firefox and displaying iframes...

Havn't built a website for along time, so let me get my brains around it and will fix it asap

Any contructive criticisms of my site?

That fixed it! I should have thought to try it out in IE (I only use it for sites that don't work in Firefox). BTW, verified working in Firefox 2.0.0.6, Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.11, and Opera 9.21 Build 8776.

XPize and XPize Darkside are such welcome additions to computing. I really appreciate all the work you guys put into them. I do seem to have a problem getting the new bootscreen to show up, though. I've had some weird computer issues lately, so I can't in good faith blame XPize Darkside, but I'm not sure how to fix it. All I keep getting to show up is the original Windows XP bootscreen. I've tried a bit of Googling, but I seem to only come up with solutions regarding bad BIOS or corrupt Windows installs where *nothing* shows up.
