I downloaded and extracted per your instructions but it definately doesn't look like your theme. I get the background but not colors etc. What could possibly be wrong? Great theme from what I can see in your screenshot though

heres a good vista theme. if you want the wallpapers let me know and i can send em to you. that was the one thing i liked about vista. the wallpapers are beautiful.

make sure to exract this rar file to "C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\"

to answer your question, you could have the files in the wrong place, check and make sure that all the files are in the above directory for the original theme posted here.

[prx984]

@ monoxide

I couldn't download your file.

@ Cygnus

There isn't a .theme file. Should I create it, myself?

Also, should I install those EXEs?

@ neo_matrix.rs

Thanks for the news about Vista Transformation Pack 5.

the theme i linked to is an MSSTYLES theme. you just extract it to "C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\" and away you go, provided you have the UXtheme patched.

as far as i know, you can double click on the .msstyle file and itll open in display properties under appearance.
