What format does the Broken Aero come in?

If it is just a msstyle than you can install UxStyle Core

Enabling Custom Themes

And try to run the theme...don't expect it to run as this is a long shot at best

You would need Windows blinds 7 to install this theme. Even if you did that there is no promise it will work 100% with 7, since it's made for Vista. Only way to get Windows Blinds 7 is by buying the Windows Blinds 6 and after that upgrade to the Windows Blinds 7 Beta. (Which you pay for)

yeah its only for vista windowsblind 6 is.. if and when you have that tho and use impulse to download and install it choose to have to view the beta's of programs as well and you can download windowblinds 7 as well and that works (as far as i know)

I have it and use to but haven't tried it yet again on win7. Also if you bought blinds6 lately they free upgrade you when it's ready.

Hey guys been working with photoshop quite a bit. Although it goes slow as i am having to look up how to do everything. i have made this start button but am unable to make the outside of the square transparent. i read that it should be black all 000000 and think i did but somewhere i think i goofed. Really dont want the orb look want it more like the bliss start button to where is no ORB. any suggestions?
