Squeeto Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 Congratulations Damian.Nice to see it up now. Damian has done a lot of work on this pack. Icons, bitmaps, avis and dialogs have all been changed throughout W2k. It makes for an awesome look. It has been well alpha tested and there should be no worry about any problems. I have found only a few resources missing but Damian is diligent and all will be found.Does it work on the cd or after install?Both. I have only used the live install method but I got this from Damian:and that i386 option is already there man, thats option 2.now i can even type in the path to the i386 folder so no more fixed placeI'll have to get the latest download. The best way to test this is Live-Install in safe mode. After you unpack the executable (double click), you will get a desktop icon. Install from this icon.

Squeeto Posted January 16, 2007 Author Share Posted January 16, 2007 if its to big, let me know guys, and i will remove it from the pack to make it a seperate download.Probably a good idea. Not everyone is on high speed. I did notice that my last download was around 18Mb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

betaluva Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 (edited) i like it BUT i think the desktop icons are a bit small, to be fair though i was running win2000 pro in virtualpc. Edited January 18, 2007 by betaluva Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian666 Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 @ squeeto, thats because i have a dutch version.i didnt know how to call "Bureau-accessoires" in the other language.but consider it fixt!the runbox is just a try, i will make a nice one without the christmas theme!i already cut it down a mere 20 mb so trying to fix that to man.@ betaluvai made the icons 48 though, so thats maybe the vm?thanx for the feedback guys!i think its cool to see that people like it!!!damian666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kelsenellenelvian Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 Hey just a fun thought How about where it says Windows Vista in the start menu section you make it say "Windows Pre Vista"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betaluva Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 i dont know if this is a bug i cant get it to uninstall,i click the icon and choose 3=restore old files,replacer starts and nothing else happens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian666 Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 (edited) @ betaluva,well its like this.when you choose option 3, replacer starts to put back all your old files that are saved the first time you use the pack.so if you see replacer working, its oke.for a real uninstall, just restore your files and delete the pack from your harddisk.hope you get it now and if there is something else be sure to let me know.@kelsyeah that is a fun thought, maybe i will put it in damian666 Edited January 19, 2007 by damian666 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
betaluva Posted January 19, 2007 Share Posted January 19, 2007 so whats the point of having option 3 if it doesnt work? it doesnt do anything,i tried 8 times and i rebooted every time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
