Re: Theme: New Windows XP Theme
 
I went and installed EchoWB after rcadden mentioned it earlier. It is great having those big fat scrollbars everywhere!

EDIT:

First of all, great theme. Very cute to see the familiar blue bars and minimize/close buttons.

Andrew, I notice that you're calling every version "wds.deb"; usually you put the version number into the name of the .deb file.

But it sure is funny to get the message, "Windows successfully installed!"

I think the menu bar (on the left) should probably be made completely transparent. It doesn't quite look Windows-y enough as it is. And there's still lots of work to do on icons and window decorations on home screen applets (like the search applet). But I'll use it for a while, freak my colleagues out.

Did you implement the wide scroll bars, like on EchoWB?

I'm not sure how to implement the large scroll bars I have made them but not sure how to make the theme use them. Anyone got any info on this?

lol I've searched and searched and haven't been able to find out how to change icons or scroll bars. Also got any ideas to add to the theme? Going to start a Mac version next I think if I can find someone to send me some screen shots of some stuff.
