amnesia really amazing job mate i love um, so are these bmps gonna be for a new version ? or the blue version ?

it's a new and refined version... are they blue ? i think more like "deep green".

the idea is to have more choices and to explore possibilities...

oh, one more thing that should be taken into consideration, although everything looks good and right now XPtsp project probably the most complete among patchers, it doesn't have any graphic templates ...

so, i've started to make them.

first, it's the only way for the bitmaps to look that good (multilayered graphics with combined images and added effects).

second, this way graphics in the project are easily customizable (backgrounds and elements could be changed).

anyhow, i want to thank all of You for the valuable and humorous feedback :worthy:

here is Shellstyle.dll i've made today

[dougiefresh]

Sweet! I like that one much better than the current XPtsp shellstyle. Will it replace the current Luna shellstyle?

[amnesia]

icons to replace current in xpsp2res.dll

p.s. can anybody tell me why there is no more attachment option on WinCert forum ?

amnesia: i dunno

I'm not sure this is a bug, maybe just an oversight.

In the below image (login screen), the red button in the bottom right corner is split into two functions.

Left=Shutdown, brings up the normal sleep/shutdown/restart popup.

Right=Does not work. Button depresses, but does nothing.

I don't know if it's possible to modify the values of those buttons, but they should react like vista, or at the very least tied together so that both bring up the same dialog in XP.

I also found another visual problem with the wireless indicators.

In the below pic, you can see in the window the signal strength bars overlap the text above (Mbps). Also, in the taskbar next to the 'ATI' icon, the signal strength bars are aways white (empty) regardless of the strength of the signal.

should be fixed in 1.4.5.1

[Mr_Smartepants]

Awesome! Thanks Bober.

404 error for 1.4.5.1

[amnesia]

2 Mr_Smartepants

regarding the "problem with the wireless indicators", if it was fixed by 1.4.5.1, just dismiss this post...

if not, could U test these changed dialogs for netshell.dll and xpsp2res.dll ?

Thank U

U can try it now...

download Shellstyle.dll i've posted,

save original Shellstyle.dll from C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\Luna\Shell\NormalColor (just incase)

switch to Classic theme and replace Shellstyle.dll in Luna.

switch back to Luna.

amnesia: I've asked N1K about the attachment issue. Hopefully he can shed some light on that.

Nice mod on Task Manager!

[robi450]

And one more question.I tried to repleace new icons the control panel.But I dont know where are the network connections,and the regional and language options,Ms timezone,and the automatic updates.

[Fixit]

where are the network connections,and the regional and language options,Ms timezone,and the automatic updates.

network conection = inetcpl.cpl.res(mui, dll), xpsp2res.dll.res

regional = intl.cpl.res (syssetup.dll.res)

timezone = timedate.cpl

automatic updates = wuaucpl.cpl.res (mui)

i think

[robi450]

Thank you very much Fixit.
