+1, why not just change the color scheme if you want black?

There are some coloured shellstyles with this theme;
Aero Hilled 7077 x86 and x64 by ~alkhan on deviantART
but so far I've yet to find any dark themes.

Why don't you read what I'm asking? I'm not asking about changing the "color scheme" of Aero to black. I'm asking about a black or dark SHELLSTYLE, it's not my fault people are posting visual styles when I asked for a shellstyle.

Anyone who wants to try this theme should make a restore point first and also this heme was made for build 7068 and the themes didn't work for me and I think it may be for x86 only, did manage to get those nice blue folders but then it would not start after reboot and had to use the system restore.

I couldnt get this to work, i am using the "universal theme patcher" I guess it doesnt work for 7RC.

For those trying it on the 64bit versions of Windows 7, remember that there may be *duplicate* files in different locations - My guess is that you may need to edit *both* or even 3 sets of files before it works....

Whoa....that's going all the way. I don't think i could get used to that and I like that sort of stuff. Pretty cool though. Thanks for the options. I wish Windows had options like these in the "themes" as an option. That would be great.

Yes i agree it should have too, i tend to prefer dark themes because i usually stay really late on my PC with very low light and all the white hurts my eyes.
