Description:
Had to add my own contribution to the massive amounts of Vista themes. Hope you like it, dont flame me too much!

Should be lightweight since it's under IceWM (about same resource consumption as Fluxbox). Use as Window decoration or as it's own environment.

Please let me know if anything doesn't work/looks bad/needs fixing/etc.

Anyways, enjoy!

Update 1: Removed transparent pixmap as border, found a workaround.

Fixed corner size so it displays the corners properly

Also, sorry for low quality screenshot, 300kb limit is a bit harsh on a 1600x1200 image.

I have this on (at least) 9 installs of my Linux systems - I love the look, the style and the Irony!Running IceWM on top of a far superior OS (PuppyLinux + Mint DE) is just FANTASTIC! Top Notch Work, my friend = LOVE IT (and IceWM 4 EVER!). :-P

Nice theme BUT the menu on my system is screwed up. Selected items are garbage.

I was in the middle of taking the silver XP theme and making my own black version of it, got bored, looked here for some other kinds of themes, and voila: I found this one. Thanks for a beautiful theme and saving me a lot of trouble!!! Hope you don't mind, but for my own use, I changed the start button from the Windows look. :)

as it was packed into a zip-archive a script like that should be run both in theme directory (/usr/share/icewm/themes/VistaBlack/) and in its taskbar subdir in order to restore links ----cut----- #!/bin/sh for i in `ls *.xpm` do if [ "`wc -w $i`" = "1 $i" ] then ln -f `cat $i` $i fi done ----cut----- repack it pls

looks good but I'm curious about which system monitor you have running in your screenshot.

The system monitor in the screenshot looks like Conky http://conky.sourceforge.net/

Well that explains why I didn't recognize it, I don't use KDE. I love my openbox too much I guess. I suppose I could install just what's needed to use this "Conky" though... Thanks for the info :)
