- A smooth Visual for Vista SP1 x86 and x64 bits, not a drastic change, because i like the bright look of aero default i only skinned the parts that i don´t like that much.
- Parts skinned are visible on screenshot. - Patch your system manually [link] or automatically (SP1) [link] before applying this Visual Style. - This should work without any glitch on a x32 bits Vista SP1 system but if you find some bug notice me please. - Wallpaper by me, will have to ask permission to release it because the flower was taken from another wallpaper - Thanks to Steven Melton and Ambroos on Neowin for testing it. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- - Update 13 Out 2008 : fixed some white pixels on lower left corner active window. - Update 14 Out 2008 : Progress bar bug on x86 systems fixed - Update 14 Out 2008 : Althought i prefer opaque maximized windows (it is the reason why i originally made this VS like that), i´ve received so many requests to turn maximized windows transparent that i decided to include inside zip file two folders : one with default VS "Pastelish" (no transparency) and another one "Pastelish FTrans" with full transparency. Please download again the file if you whish full transparency, thanks. - Update 14 Oct 2008 : All progress bars updated. - Update 16 Oct 2008 : Toolwindows close button fixed Mouse over quick launch fixed New shellstyle - Update 19 Oct 2008 : Due to some requests all progress bars updated to blue to integrate the overall scheme - Update 21 Oct 2008 : Basic Mode skin added - Update 23 Oct 2008 : Polished all annoyances...caption buttons fixed so there´s no more problems with tool windows. Start button recolored |

Finally a USABLE vs for vista that is original and sleek looking.

Throw a mouse at the keyboard and curse to the lord
Love that you got rid of all the distractions on the glass (the teal, the streaks, and those ugly reflections on the left and right near the top)!
LOVE the start menu button!
I think for the taskbar I would have no box around minimized programs. I would probably make the taskbar transparency a tad darker too.
But thanks for doing something original without it being ridiculous!!
1 more thing: That's my wallpaper, you using as your user picture. Have fun.
