It's so shiny and bright.

Like it very much
Good idea, but there is just one problem, the boot image resolution is limited and that would be a lot of work to get that image quality on boot

Well, its *HIS* theme with some suggestions implemented so if you don't like it, there are more themes to choose or simply do one by yourself (sounds interesting)

Finally, I started reworking Lautus Ater. I've decided to start with Windows compatible version made with StyleBuilder, then using WINE headers and stuff to make compile-able version for ROS itself.

So, I already know that Start Button is not rendered properly, the same with fonts - Ubuntu font looks bad here, I'll need replacement, any ideas btw.? And those tabs, even though modern, I think I'll make them look normal. And also "this button in tray, I don't know how it's called" is a bit misaligned.

Enjoy :)

Thank you for this. Compilable sounds great. Hope to find it in Trunk soon.

.deb?? What r u talking about??
ReactOS is still in alpha stage, meaning it is not feature-complete and is recommended only for evaluation and testing purposes.

If my post/reply offends or insults you, be sure that you know what sarcasm is...

See his post in the future of the start menu thread. It'll give you some idea of why he's asking.

Btw. download links are down, I'll reupload it to Ubuntu One, if somebody wants me to.

Here comes another concept. Any ideas or suggestions?

Explorer is not themed yet. Only Windows. This seems to be a mock up

Yes, it's a mockup.

@mmi1991:
Sorry for that, maybe I accidentally removed it because I thought I have it on Dropbox, lol. I've fixed it.

Ok, sorry for double posting, if I'd edit that post, nobody would notice that I've actually added something new here, lol.

Here comes the latest changes!

Scrollbars were basicaly redone. Not so ugly, I guess :)

Tabs redone, to match the new look.

Start Menu, I guess improved a bit.

Status bar fixed (forgot to mention that). New list view, I hope you like it.
