Maybe in future also with Logon and Startmenu like WinXP MCE?The screenshot of my Windows 2000 Professional is not actual any more, and additional will also come!Please test this pack helping me with ideas, suggestions or resources!Tell me which features do you want, i'll (try to) make them possible! Of course i'm not in doubt for you e.g. cause of possible bugsPlease, read the project site, see link the at bottom of posting! If i cannot give newest information here, there is it!You can download this cX2K installers:version 1.0.0.0 packed as alpha 1version 1.0.1a packed as alpha 2 version 1.0.1b packed as beta 1.As i am german are my homepage in mother tongue. But i added an english language project page on my homesite http://www.christiankuhlmann.de/x2k/ Best wishes,Chris Edited April 25, 2007 by ChrisKuhli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave.Net Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Lookin' nice.Just some ideas:1) Drop that color scheme. It's too bright and 3d objects such as buttons don't look good.2) Either those images in 'Taskbar Properties' need to be cropped or the dialog itself needs to be resized.3) Use the correct icons for start menu (the smaller ones with no shadow)4) Please do something about that big monitor with black borders.

dirtwarrior Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Which part do you need testing with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisKuhli Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 @Dave.net:1. Color scheme ist not including yet - what you see is my local modification. Suggest an example via a shot of your System!2. The images are coming with the standard XPize resources. When possible in future XP-ish taskbar is available!3. For classic startmenu, of course. New startmenu will be included in future when possible!4. My standard screen resolution @ 17" CRT Should i reduce my screen resolution before i make screenshots?

ChrisKuhli Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 (edited) Hello !Which part do you need testing with?I haven't yet tested here using modified nLite installation as new installation.I'm having an extra partition - but it's more important the debug of source code for enabling patch from within nLite!If you have e.g. Virtual PC and nLite, copy a nLite'd Disk in a folder and use the patching routine from within the cX2K installer with it. Let me know how the patched system looks like!Does it looks like my modified Windows 2000 Professional?Cause i have to go into five day holiday - without internet i'm away until easter monday evening Happy Easter Chris Edited April 5, 2007 by ChrisKuhli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
