Editing explorerframe.dll for classic theme

I have a reshacked my explorerframe.dll in /system32 as well as /syswow64, but I see no changes using classic theme :(

Does these bitmaps have another location?

Ok, so I played around with the other bitmaps in explorerframe.dll and managed to identify the ones needed to be changed. However it seems like there's still a 'mask' of the original buttons somewhere. Where do I find this bitmap?

Alternatively I'm willing to give up the forward/back buttons all together, anyone know how to remove them completely? Or maybe removing the whole address/path bar? :huh:

Welcome to the Seven Forums
Did you try editing #281 or #581 I am just guessing

Which numbers were for the classic navigation buttons?

aaaaaah, the 'mask' I was referring to was an alpha channel i spotted in photoshop. SOLVED!

Now I need to edit these and I'm good to go, yay. :geek:

PS. If someone happens to know how to remove the address bar, don't hesitate mentioning it

Good to hear you got it. Trying to customize the Classic Theme is a tough one not many have tried it.
