I can seem to figure out why SIB wont load the menu BG in windows 8.1 The image in Start Menu > Menus > Basic > Toolbar is the usual place to skin that BG, but as of 8.1, it does not seem to load it. 8.1 theme: But... Loading a Windows 8 theme in windows style builder and selecting to load the start menu theme from msstyle in sib makes it load that image. Is there missing code for SIB to load that menu BG for 8.1?

Yeah there are some apps that dont respect the windows theme settings (Usually apps that have thier own custom coded UI, example: Skype) And when it comes to dark themes, word programs are unusable due to the fact that they made the white page bg the window color. This will cause it to print out in the color its currently set to. Only grip with using dark themes XD Its not like I use those types of programs often enough. haha

Took a while to get right, but its finally done. I present Adobe CC for windows 8.1 http://simplexdesignsart.deviantart.com/art/Adobe-CC-536072172

Options make a product better. Not going with another product. That is a terrible program btw...

Tihiy, would it be possible for you to add the option to show icons on the right side of the start menu like it was in xp? Thanks

Beautiful! I found a small bug Same problem with Vanilla. Do you have shadows disabled? or it may be a glitch with Oldnewexplorer.

Tihiy is there any news on the glass area bug in some open windows. It seems to not work at times and requires me to re-enable glass on the nav area.

did you enable glass on nav area in one?

Some fixes for Windows Aero 8.1 Theme http://xxinightxxcreative.weebly.com/free-windows-aero.html

bigmuscle any chance to add back glow on caption buttons through Aero Glass? The method I use to use in windows 8 broke in 8.1/10 (Glyph method)

DoubleSanimations just explained why my theme does that and not on the other. Mine uses custom borders to add back in the glow and shine effects. The one you listed does not have that which is why that has no issues.

you just delete the old theme file and add in the new ones. simple.

Yes there may not be round corners, you will have to keep in mind that not everyone had access to aero glass for win10 yet so you have to work with what you got. Round corners are nice however, those ones you made could use some work.

I have it ready but wont be released until aero glass is out to fix round corners/caption text issue.

For those running windows 10 and want a little bit of change in its style try out some of these unique themes. Also if you find any others, feel free to post them here just no direct links to the files, only link to the developers page & who its made by. Please note that themes on 10 can be unstable or break on future versions of the Technical Previews. Use with caution!

if you had the program installed when on 8 and upgraded to 10 you will have that issue. Only way to fix this way is to roll back to win8 and unistall uxstyle first before upgrading to 10.

I actually don't know where in resource hacker since I use Windows Style Builder. The showdesktop button is located on the taskabar image due to it not being visible on windows 8. Because of this, the showdesktop graphic cannot be enlarged any further than what its size is. Doing so will cause the clock section to mess up.

Any chance to re implement glow over caption buttons through this program?

That definitely an aero glass or diver issue... I am able to use camtasia on my system fine. see http://youtu.be/r5y0TsgRqUs for the start menu. GO into sib and make sure you turn transparency off for taskbar/menu.

Cant believe I missed that details view section XD All of these that you typed have been fixed along with other improvements to the theme. Thanks for letting me know. The files are now available to download from my page. (I have included zip for people who prefer not to use exe as well.) As for the screen recording, what application are you using? It may be related to your graphics card/diver software. When a window's view setting is Details why is it that the column it is sorted by is always coloured? It's not like that in Windows 7. And why when I have the details pane enabled with OldNewExplorer do they wipe in like PowerPoint transition? Why couldn't you leave them static like they are in Windows 7? Edit: I've now discovered that Program & Features now wipes in as well. Edit 2: The theme absolutely does not like being recorded. Screen tearing galore.

Nice!, What installer did you use? I use Actual Installer a nice cheap alternative to installsheild that gets the job done. Its a very powerful little program. It allows me to include everything needed to get the theme working minus the patch system part. Try its free trial out to see what I mean
