thats a good idea, i added it to my to-do-list at http://www.reactos.org/wiki/index.php/D ... OttenbreitI think the C:\ button should be replaced with a real address bar.
It Looks Great The problem is this is a open source project and you are using proprietary icons buttons bars etc from xp and longhorn/vista and mac osx
Self made and tango icons are great there are alot of othere open icons out there as well. Try to steer away from "borrowing" from windows. It would be perfectly legal imho if you have a windows license and installed them to your own install of ROS but not everoyone has a windows or mac osx license so i think open/free/made from scratch is the way to go.

The current theme will look better when all the old icons have been taken out. I like the icons in your new theme, but if they're proprietary, I think it would just be better to wait until mf's finished his icons.
That said, I quite like that background though, and the sidebar in the start menu is really nice-looking.

I like it very much!
The explorer look a lot better with the firefox icons. It's a proof that the current explorer icons should be removed ASAP
(of course proprietary icons can't be used...)
The wallpaper is very nice also.
And the new start menu icon is great
I vote for it
You have a lot of talent, you should participate in the UI team, contact mf .

i've took dominiks design test and added a adressbar to explorer, realigned the navigation icons and changed controlpanel icon:

But i think the controlpanel icon style does not fit into the tango project icon style.

Is this with todays SVN trunk. If it is I am downloading it straight away. I hate the ugly style of the tree system of ROS.
How did you change the stock icons?
You may need to get rid of that wallpaper though. It looks a lot like the vista style. (well then just wait for ReactOS 1 you evil people at the big MS)

'My computer' icon is really disturbing (both versions) me.

note:
afterglow design are interested to port their icons to ReactOS.
DESIGNMOOD, MIDLAND and Xeader claimed that are interested in ReactOS graphics too...[/url]

Well first thanks for the great replies!
If the UI Team is interrested in my suggestions I will never propose to use proprietary icons.
As I said some sentences earlyer, I will not use any proprieatry graphics if UI-Team is interrested, but you are right this is a part of the MS vista background.
You are right. I know we can't use proprietary icons, this was just a direction to develop the ui to.It Looks Great The problem is this is a open source project and you are using proprietary icons buttons bars etc from xp and longhorn/vista and mac osx

The design suggestion is completely drawn.How did you change the stock icons?

well, imho I don't think it's very good... I don't like that much the original reactos color scheme... Those colors are not used anymore for the website...
And I don't like the buttons (minimize/close window) because they are too small and too flat. It seems difficult to click on them...
