Description:

Had to add my own contribution to the massive amounts of Vista themes. Hope you like it, dont flame me too much! :)

Should be lightweight since it's under IceWM (about same resource consumption as Fluxbox). Use as Window decoration or as it's own environment.

Please let me know if anything doesn't work/looks bad/needs fixing/etc.

Anyways, enjoy!

Update 1: Removed transparent pixmap as border, found a workaround.

Fixed corner size so it displays the corners properly

Also, sorry for low quality screenshot, 300kb limit is a bit harsh on a 1600x1200 image.

Hey!

Your theme is excellent. It made me change the WM to IceWM.

If you had some time, you could repair the seperator on the toolbar. If you look closely, you should notice that seperator stands out a bit. You could make it blend into the toolbar background.
Thanks for the theme and I'm looking forward to new versions... Thanks for the Conky info too.

Well it's conky actually:

To make it look like mine, replace your /home/user/.conkyrc with this:

Of course, you can edit it however you like, it's an XML file essentially.

Nice theme, actually. Although I had expected it was also going to skin the task bar; as per your screenshot.

The only REAL issue I'm having is that there seems to be extra noise near the top of every title bar on each window.

I have provided a screenshot.

Just did this install and was lookin' for a quick theme to brighten things up a bit. Easy to install otherwise.

System is P4 2.4 w/1GB RAM and Intel Onboard video. Nothin' special. Runnin' Mandriva 2007 Spring with all updates.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks.

For the taskbar, you have to be running IceWM as a separate session for that to work, or you can move the KDE taskbar, it might already be showing underneath it.

For the noise, it seems your version of IceWM doesn't support transparency.

Nevertheless, I've implemented a new way of getting around the problem without the need of transparent pixmaps, so it should work now.

Thanks

Also, your corners don't seem to display properly. Let me know if this is fixed now.

Appimages

To install any downloaded Appimage via GUI, use this tool AppImagelauncher.

To install Appimages from Appimagehub via CLI use appimage-cli-tool.
This allows you to e.g. search appimages with "app search xyz" and install any appimage via command "app install #id".

If you are a developer who is interested to easily build appimages from your code repo, read the guide here.
