intergration of visual styles in operating systems

[matt121]

hi im currently working on an All In One DVD, i have a versions of xp & 2003 that have the hacked uxtheme intergrated.

im asking is there a way you could intergrate visual styles into the setup of xp & 2003 like you would when intergrating a service pack?

Can this be done?

give me your thoughts.

you will have to use $OEM$ folders to add more visual styles to the installation.

$OEM$/$$/Web/Wallpaper - place your wallpapers here.

$OEM$/$$/Resources/Themes/ - Place your .theme file here

$OEM$/$$/Resources/Themes/MyTheme - Place your .msstyles and accompanying shell folder here

if you wish to use one of your extra themes as default when windows boots up then add this to you WINNT.SIF

[shell]

CustomDefaultThemeFile="%WinDir%\Resources\Themes\My Favorite.theme"

hope this helps.
