Best Visual Styles/Themes?

[Cam]

What are some of the greatest W7 themes/visual styles that completely change the way the OS looks? I tried a few, but they were too lame. All of them were dark and shiny, and the transparency effects didn't work for many, if not, ANY of them.

Is there a good theme that offers a Matte Plastic look, kind of like Mac OSX Snow Leopard?

I really wanna learn how to create a visual style for win7 and completely change the look just I don't know how =P

If i come across any I'll let you know asap!

Thanks,
Kukag

I downloaded the pack with all of his themes. Most of them are unfinished and flawed, plus the Mac OS X look-alike looks terrible.

Well everyone has their own opinion, i think these are great

They look like something a 12-year-old boy would make. They're too "Black N' Shiny", plus they're unfinished.

Can you define unfinished? Whats wrong with them, give me an example

And i dont think you got any idea how hard these are to make, i am currently learning to make themes like these.

Well you try if you can do better http://www.vistastylebuilder.com/

Many of the graphics are unfinished, and seem lazy. A lot of the white text is on white backgrounds, which make them hard to read.

I have to agree with SG. Both the Verdesh and 7Air styles are amazing, and I have been running one or the other since I installed RTM. I think they are very well done, and haven't found a problem with either of them.

I just started using the themes from him, and i cant decide which one to use, so i change it almost every day My favorites though are Verdesh and SiCo :devil:

I was using 7Air up until a few minutes ago, when I switched back to Verdesh. I just wish more people would get on making visual styles for 7.

I just really don't like the whole Sleek Black stuff. Things are off-center, and they look corny.

Well, you've definitely got talent. Can't wait to see what you come up with.

Can somebody running SiCo or Verdesh themes by Alkhan confirm that they works well with a 64-bit version of windows 7? Also, if there were significant issues to overcome, what were they? Thanks!


CAM, that's just nonsense talk... these themes look great!

In a few minutes i can

excellent! i see that you run x64 ultimate, which i do as well, and you have SiCo. I am just about to run UxStyle and the SiCo theme, but I dont have my second HDD in to perform a backup image of my new OS install yet. this will save me lots of time rebuilding if it 'blows up'

 

[sergiogarcia9]

I can confirm that both of them work perfectly
