Posted: Sat Sep 27, 2008 12:15 pm Post subject: XP Skins ? |
|
|
I have this skin on one of my laptops that is XP and put it on there a long time ago and forgot the name of it since. I just recently installed XP on one of my desktops and want to use the same skin again. Anyone know what this one is called or could recommend an even better one ?
This is a screenshot I just made of the laptop with the skin already on there :

Sorry, looks so horrible to me after being forced to work with Windows 2000 that has that same skin for like 3 months..
I just really love the skin in that picture above. I totally forgot about it though after having not used that computer for like 5 months.

You are better off asking around Deviant Art, They make custom skins, They might know the name of it.

That looks like a modify "Royal" theme. Go into your laptop and first
see what them your currently using, then navigate to c:\windows\resources and copy the theme to a flash drive.
Put the copied theme to the same directory on your desktop.
Next double click on the theme and see if it activates.
Note: The theme will also need a shell file that would be in the same place as your theme folder directory.

| @kls, it says I am using the Luna theme when I go in there but I know that I'm not cause that's just the standard one. I'll have a look at the Royale ones, thanks.

For Windows XP Professional and Home Edition, the default theme is Luna
and you won't have Royal.
Royal is only available in Windows XP Media Center Edition.
From what you said, it looks like who ever did that theme took the original luna and modified it.
What program they used is unknown, but I'm guessing they may have used tgtsoft's stylebuilder.
Also there is a special theme made by Microsoft that was never released, but you can find it on the internet.
Here change that ugly wallpaper!

I can say THIS; NO BRICO PACKS.
NO FUCKING BRICOPACKS.
RAM rape for NO reason. NO REASON.
I can do more than bricopacks in half the resources and to my liking and specifications.
Fuck bricopacks.
If you want, get WB6. I have skins similar to that on WB6.
Anyway, current skin;
One before it;

| It seems like it's a modified Royal pack, looking like media center edition tbh.
