What has the theme author's response been? Hello Baarod,
From the author's comments at that webpage: Quote: Artist's Comments
This is my second release of Aero Hilled theme for Windows 7, but now is compatible with build 7077 x86 and x64 to.
I have made a new way to apply this theme and created some patches for every dll and exe. You dont need to copy the new files anymore and you dont need to make a backup because in the moment that you apply the patch it will create a backup file automaticaly.
!!!IMPORTANT!!!
Before to apply the patch please use Take Control program from extras folder to take ownership of the files that you have to patch and disable the UAC.
And beacause the patch contains only the resources files that have to be replaced now is more compatible and stable with x86 and x64 to because they will not modify the other data from files that will be patched. !!!ATENTION!!! The theme is compatible with Windows 7 build 7068 x86 and x64 and with Windows 7 build 7077 x86 and x64, but i'm not sure if the patch'es works with build 7068 to, but for that is the version for this build.
Ii'm not responsable if your sistem takes errors.
You install this on your own responsability.
This works with no errors on my system.
Whats new:
- added multishellstyle with 4 folder color (generic, documents, pictures, music/videos)
- new start panel reworked at some requests
- new orb with no flames effect (in org folder you will find the flame version to)
- new taskbar (more transparency and this depends of the color that is chosed)
- clock and date is now more visible
- new items on the taskbar
- topshellstyle
- topshellstyle for games folder
- new left panel picture
- new welcome center picture
- fixed some bugs
Extras:
- new sidebar that can be customizable with sidebar styler
- 3D picture workings but it shows only user picture
- stacks (thanks to Matias Moreno for this great patch)
- logon changer
- take control (to take control of all files that you need to patch)
Bugs:
- black text on detailed pane, left panel and command bar (if someone know how to make it white please help)
Thanks for you all that helped me.
Any comments are welcomed.

My guess is that any "skin" that requires taking ownership of everything, disabling UAC and patching "every dll and exe" isn't the safest thing in the world to mess with. Better to ask the author since h's the expert! | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number baarod/MCP OS Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit CPU Core2 Quad Q6600 @ 3.6GHz 9x400FSB Motherboard Gigabyte G33M-S2H Memory 4GB DDR2 1066 Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 4670 Sound Card Integrated Azalia Monitor(s) Displays Acer AL1711 Screen Resolution 1280x1024 Keyboard Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard 4000 Mouse Microsoft Wireless Lasr Mouse 5000 PSU 240W TFX Case InWin BT566 Cooling Intel Retail Stock Hard Drives OCZ Vertex SATAII w/ 1.5FW 30,528MB system and apps
