That's what I meant to say, haha.

Those little "other places" and "details" have always looked the same to me; whether on XP or Classic themes.

It doesn't seem to change everything. Such as if you double click My Computer, the left side looks like Windows Classic. Anybody else seeing the same thing?

Thanks for the tip, Matt! I'm going to put this theme on my 9300 tonight.

As Joker mentioned, you should only need 4 of the files from the archive:

C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\royale.theme
C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\Royale\royale.msstyles
C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\Royale\Wallpaper\energybliss.jpg
C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\Royale\Shell\Royale\shellstyle.dll

Am I doing something wrong? I am using winAce to extract the file, but when I select the .exe file to extract, it tells me there is nothing to extract? WTF?

sonicwind · 04-15-2005, 12:10 PM

ah, I don't think it's all that fantastic.

chrsharvick29 · 04-15-2005, 12:20 PM

I don't really need to use that theme sense I'm using WindowBlinds. I like downloading all different kinds of styles.

eskimo_socks · 04-15-2005, 12:26 PM

I still like my OSX Theme.

All those icons... Arrrggggg.. My eyes...

Prism,

I may be wrong because I don't use WinAce but, an .exe file is usually self-extracting. WinAce seems to extract .ace and .rar files. I say, make sure you virus scan the .exe file then double click on it and see what happens.

Thanks but did that already and I get a message stating that it will only install on a Win MCE platform!

prism - WinRAR extracts it fine: http://www.download.com/3000-2250-10007677.html

I tried to unzip the files downloaded from Microsoft and I got an error message that this can only be used on windows media edition. Did I do something wrong?

The file attempted to unzip but it was stopped before it could complete with the error message.

I am running xp pro on a dell 8400. Thanks, Brad

Any help would be appreciated.
