or just some folder .. so I can verify that you installed the shellstyle provided in the latest version RC 1.5

it also says in the readme that it changes the copy / empty recycle bin animations stuff.. why dont i see any difference... and it also says something about the internet explorer animation thing's background.. did anything actually change after u install the shell 32 thing?

install it!!!!

it makes the theme complete... I'll let ya figure it out yourself...

and don't worry you can always revert back.

if I'm not mistaken ... the shell32 was only included in RC1.5
RC1.5 came with a lot of cool addons.. new icons/ got rid of that windows flag in ie, wallpapers, etc..

Can't rem all the details, I removed all themes from my computer.

is there any possible way to clarify that piaqt?

when you mean theme, are you talking about .msstyles themes? which theme engine ? (9x, xp, new one develeped by stardock, etc..?)

or you just meant applying a theme from the stylexp menu vs the display menu?...is there a chance of posting a screenshot please? I might get a better idea...

*I mean .msstyles themes.
*Style XP
*and applying theme via stylexp.

I'm beginning to get it. Been playing with Stylebuilder and Reghack a few days. I am so not a programmer! BTW: Where's the attachment box?

piaqt

I think attachment is disabled in this section :-(

Resource Hacker becomes quite a useful tool, not only for .msstyles but just in general.


nope there is no difference from applying a theme via stylxp or the display properties...

BLACKWAR
not sure what to tell you... if installed properly all should be done...

It's been a while since i used chaningaRC1.5 I used it first day it was out...


so no screenies + no more .msstyles for me ;-)


I'm using classic view... old SKOOL!

The theme came with some documentation, if I'm not mistaken it says the various enhancements that it has added since the previous release.....

Well man thanks a bunch for all your help :)
I went on a forum site the other day which the author participated and they knew about this thing not working and told me to delete the shell32.dll in the C:WindowsSystem32dllcache , and then try the patch, so i did and it worked :rolleyes:
I love the 0's and 1's flying from folder to folder
this is awesome
and the IE background.. man i tell ya, this theme should have been the default one for XP
:D
:D
:D
thanks very much

man now that is interesting...
its so hard to see what the problem is when talking on a forum man.. get on msn so we can see what the problem is..
it shouldn't cause any problems if you did the steps that i said.. but if it does, you always have your old uxtheme.BAK file i told you to rename your old file to, so if you have any problems, just rename the uxtheme.BAK in both C:windowssystem32 and C:\windows\system32\dllcache back to uxtheme.dll.. then it shouldn't give you an error.. but i still cant see what went wrong :) so plz if ur around right now , get on msn so we can chat a lil bout this
Thanks
BLACKAWR
