    Doesn't Seem to work


    i have looked over the forums
    and followed every direction to a tee....
    but for some reason the themes i download and stuff don't work.
    my windows look either goes to classic or the text is a different color..
    you probably get this alot and what not from noobs
    but a nice direction towards some related fixes or some would be great
    thanks for your time

    i tried both
    i had more success with Theme - How to Apply Custom Themes
    when i used UxStyle and a transparent theme all my font was see-through
    and with the little patch program one everything works but sometimes the font is wonky
