Hell Racer Posted September 5, 2009 Posted September 5, 2009 Okay, there's no possibility to save selections during xpize install and I do a lot of them , e.g. I don't install visual styles (except some Luna Element bitmaps for wizards), themes, cursors and skins, also I have to remove some files from temp directory during install to keep logon/logoff buttons unpatched. Therefore I decided to try to create some lite package without all of these elements just for myself, which exactly meets my personal needs. Well, I still can't believe it, but it seems like it works . The question is: does anyone also interested in the xpize 5 lite? Remember that it only patches icons, bitmaps and animations.
Marru_xD Posted September 6, 2009 Posted September 6, 2009 I do a lot of un-selections too.I just install all icons, Blue element bitmaps and the Microsoft signed themes.I'll like it!I just want to make my XP became a XP, i don't want it:neater it:I think it neads a new option to just patch icons and add the blues wizards (), and no logonui, and others themes (just the signed by MS)I like the idea a lot

The aim of xpize is to make Windows XP more XP (style-matched), this is what I have mentioned in this forum many many times. All other customizations should theoretically not included in the application. If those users wanna make their XP more fashioned or stylish, they may download this type of software on the web for another purpose.By the way, it is unreachable about your upload "http://www.filesavr.com/xpize5lite01", is it available if you put it on another upload server?

You can choose one which all xpize users are permitted by their ISP. Edited September 12, 2009 by tkrojam

mhmallory Posted September 25, 2009 Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) @Hellraiser Try Windows Live Skydrive. You get 25gb free disk space. You make any portion of the space available to public by a hyperlink, supports drag n' drop with XP Windows Explorer, and the account does not expire.Also Adrive, my favorite provides 50gb of free disk space, but no drag n' drop with free service. Lastly, Dropbox which only provides 2gb of space but upgradeable by paid subscription, buts support real disk syncing form your desktop. Basically, you use the space as a Windows Share, and if you want to sync you copy your file to your Dropbox share. Great for documentation or small .exe files.mhmallory Edited September 25, 2009 by mhmallory
Hell Racer Posted September 26, 2009 Author Posted September 26, 2009 Thanks very much for info!Tried Skydrive but didn't find that drag'n'drop option . How does it work?
mhmallory Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 (edited) @Hell RacerWhen you go to Skydrive, you have to down load a plugin for your browser. Take a look at http://www.alpesh.nakars.com/blog/skydrive...p-with-firefox/ if you are using Fire Fox.mhmallory Edited September 26, 2009 by mhmallory
mhmallory Posted September 26, 2009 Posted September 26, 2009 @Hell RacerThe plugin is a little hard to find. You have to use IE to see it and download it. If you want, I can upload it to Skydrive and provide a link. Let me know.mhmallory
