OK well here it is, my entry for the Clash of the Titans III comp, I think this comp has been the best one yet and all the artists have really started to shine and step up their game once again in the hope to take the crown :smile:

The theme I have entered for the comp was based on a skin design I use for Messenger PLUS called Zero-G and it was the first skin I tried after installing it and I have never wanted to use another style since, the recent update of messenger however has made my old skins incompatible and that was enough to make me return to the older Messenger version so I can keep enjoying my skins lol.

I did speak to the creator asking for an update but he said he wouldn't because the new messenger plus has lost the ability to skin the frames of messenger and he said without frames it pretty much spoils the whole skin, so anyway I hope after seeing this theme he might be inspired to use it with an updated version to complete the Zero-G look again :smile:

As some of you know this style started a bit different and my original concept images had a white and black start menu and explorer windows, while I did like the look it was proving to be more difficult then I had expected trying to use the black text with a mixed Black and White theme, anyway I have recently discovered how to set the explorer window text colour using the shellstyle.dll so I will have a play with that and see if I can achieve the look I wanted without compromise.

Features:

There are 4 styles to choose from again with this theme, 2 styles with the User Picture frame in the Start Menu and 2 without, there are also Basic versions for both for those less fortunate who can not use Aero, The basic skin is fully skinned and looks almost identical and in some respects better then the Aero version so make sure even if you have Aero, especially the gamers who want to use less RAM, to check it out because I am sure you will have a pleasant surprise :smile:

You must enable the use of custom themes by either patching your system with Universal Theme Patcher or use UxStyle Core which runs as a service, either way will have the same result but UxStyle Core does not change any system files and is also update proof.

Universal Theme Patcher (http://virtualcustoms.net/showthread.php/27909-How-to-Apply-Custom-Themes-in-Windows-7)

UxStyle Core (http://www.uxstyle.com)

Some of those using Firefox 4 may have some difficulty reading the tabs, if you do then consider Using Tab Mix Plus https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... -mix-plus/ (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/) I have also included the settings I have to make it easy to set up, just use the import option in settings.

I made many downloads of his themes because they really are works that combine simplicity, creativity and beauty. His theme for the competition that combines trilogy above. I liked very much, thank you. I would also add, on behalf of what seems unfair that BBosa should be the big winner in this competition. Bbosa did an awesome job. Thank you all.

Bbosa did a great job on his theme but just because thats the one that you feel is the best does not mean everyone else has the same taste you do. Everyone in the comp tried really hard and put out really great quality themes and did wonderful jobs I don't hear many mentioning how well timmymofo's was or robyroby, devil or skull did, there are many different theme makers with many different styles and everyone has a different taste in what they like dark or lite, red, blue or green just remember what you think is best might not be the same for everyone else so saying that the way ppl voted is unfair is not really fair to all the ppl that did place votes on what they liked the best to thier own tastes.

so let me get this straight you are saying that all the others themes dont compare to bbosa's theme is that correct? All the members here that entered this competition is for fun but with comments like that is totally taking the fun out of this whole situation here now isnt it. There are alot of fantastic themes by all this great artist and everyones opinion is different on who's theme is best that is why the votes.

Explorer colours do not have to be the same as the main window colour but I I did make it the same colour as the explorer so not sure why yours have white in word because it's not like that on mine, however you can change the window and text colour in the advanced appearance settings.

If you could help me out when I try and switch to another theme I lose the aero functionality with an error desktop manager not started. If I switch back to Zero-G it too does no longer give me aero functionality.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Not sure why DWM is turning off, you could try this reg hack if you like, it gives you the option to turn DWM on and off in the right click context menu.


Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\Start DWM]
@="Start DWM"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\Background\shell\Start DWM\command]
@="net start uxsms"

Thanks, been a bit slack on the extras but they are still coming, I tried my hand at creating a skin for Messenger Plus and it turned out pretty good I think, there was a little problem with the content margins on the contacts window so the scroll bar goes out side the area I wanted it in but I will continue to look for a solution to that, anyway here is a preview so far.

This is only available for 2011 messenger when you have messenger Plus!

:burns: :happy: :happy: :happy: :happy: Ok where do I start, first I want To GREATLLLYYYY THANK Mr.GRiM for this exquisitely perfected masterpiece of a theme!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You have just blown away any expectations i could ever have on a theme. This is the theme I have been digging through the internet trying to find, I will never look anywhere else for a theme. But not only did you create this superb windows 7 theme, you also made it very very very simple for anyone to use and install. The only way installing a theme could be any easier would be if you actually came to my house and installed it for me haha, but your installer already does that hahaha :laughing: . Mr.GRiM I just can not say thank you enough for this theme. Thank You. I have to admit though i tried some earlier themes that i had to patch windows files and replace a couple files in windows folder, and that did not turn out good. It was definitely my own fault somewhere during the process. This theme was so easy to install and get working, you just click on your theme and it installs it self. Brilliant just brilliant :happy: . If there's anything I can do to help you out just let me know.

Sorry for the long reply, I really wanted to extend my Appreciation. EXCELLENT THEME Mr.GRiM , Keep doing what you do. :happy:

You could try changing the colours in the advanced appearance settings in the colour personalization menu, other then that there is not much else you can do about it other then changing to another theme when you need to do your work

hi, im very sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this but im having a bit of a problem with the zerog theme that i cant seem to fix. = /

a couple panels didnt skin and tsp wont skin them, i cant find anything on teh google to figure it out either unfortunatly.

odd thing is its only a couple panels, best examples would be the top panel in control panel ("adjust you computer's setttings"....view by:category) and if you go into a sub menu of the control panel (such as if you go to uninstall a progam, the side panel where it lists things like control panel home, view installed updates, etc..)

the majority of other side panels in windows explorer ARE skinned, its just these few here and there...

any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you

Did you run the theme installer or did you extract the contents and add them manually, also what is your primary drive partition letter?

the majority of other side panels in windows explorer ARE skinned, its just these few here and there...

any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you

Did you run the theme installer or did you extract the contents and add them manually, also what is your primary drive partition letter?

i ran the installer on the threads front page (32 bit), windows is on drive D. after running your installer i ran 7tsp for the icons and stuff (in fact i ran tsp a few times hoping it just missed the sidepanels and windows orb, ended up using a third program to do the orb)

how do i change the color of the fonts ?
because im using fullglass.exe and it's hard to see when my windows is on the white background :fright:

Mr GRiM
April 21st, 2011, 05:05 AM
You cant change them, best to use a dark background if your using Full Glass, I didn't make it for use with full glass and I am not a fan of it.

OK looks like I didn't fix the installer to work with other drive letters, I updated the installer and also posted a reg fix that should work, just restart explorer after you use the reg fix

EDIT: fixed the problem, uxstyles was screwed up and when trying to reinstalli go the "its been tampered with" error, to fix this i did "sfc /scannow" in a command prompt and then rant he uxstyles installer again....i decidd to leave my original post up in case others have this issue ....


ok im having a problem (yep, me again = / )...ive been searchign around the site and havent seen a fix for this.

the zero g skincomes with 4 versions, once before i accidentally switched themes and aero shut off (it defaulted to zero g basic even tho that wasnt selected) and i somehow fixed it.

well i did it again and this time i cant seem to get the non-basic zero g to work (what i did last time isnt working or im doing it different idk).


back on like page 4 or 5 of this thread someone posted about losing aero functionality when switching themes, im betting its teh same issue, the response was a reg edit that let you toggle DWM on or off int he context menu, this doesnt work for me in this case..

as a last resort i ranthe windows troubleshoot on the theme and it said aero isnt supported by this theme? i have no idea how to get the nonbasic zero-g theme to work again :crying:

I installed this theme on a windows 7 X64 bit OS and opened up Word 2010 and noticed that it changed the color of the paper from white to a Grey color. Is there a way to change the Paper back to the normal white color ? Any help would be great.

Mr.Grim by the way very nice theme

HaCkthEplAneT
May 14th, 2011, 02:10 PM
someone please correct me if i am wrong on this, but i don't think you can change just this element in word. the grey background color would have to be changed throughout the theme in order for it to go back to white.

I know that this can be a bump in the road for ms office users, but personally i just change to the default windows 7 theme when i am going to be working for any length of time in office. however with this theme in particular it's really not that big of an issue for me. you can still clearly see what your doing because there is enough contrast in color. but other themes this can be a real problem especially ones that make everything black.

Mr GRiM
May 14th, 2011, 04:37 PM
Yeah I have mentioned this too many times to count, you can change the Window colour in the advanced appearance settings in your colour personalization menu, you can also change the page colour in Word.

hello nick welcome to VC.

the first thing you need to do is download and install rocketdock http://rocketdock.com/download

once you have that installed dl the Zero-G rocketdock skin if you haven't already. double click on the file and it will automatically put the skin into your skins folder. C:\Program Files\RocketDock\Skins (Program Files (x86) if you have a 64-bit system)

Then right click any where in your dock and choose Dock Settings. Click on Styles and choose Zero-G Top, Left, Right or Bottom whichever one you want.

You said somewhere that you've remade the Zero-G skin for messenger 2011, is it available anywhere for download ?

Edit: Nvm, found it.

There seems to be a "bug" with the notification popup, when running a full screen application with notification still enabled, the transparency makes it unreadable.

All you need to do is unlock the taskbar and right click on it go to toolbars/add new, and them make a new folder somewhere and call it blank for example, then select that folder for your new toolbar.

You then need to right click on the new toolbar and select view text/title and deselect those 2 options and place the blank toolbars on the left side of your main Taskbar group and slide the taskbar to a central position.

Error: The requested action with this object has failed.

Hi, has anyone encountered this message when using 7tsp? Ive just installed ZeroG on my new laptop, and it installed beautifully (MrGrim, youre an artist, thank you), but this message appears when using 7tsp to install the ZeroG icon pack and extras. Both the portable and installable versions of 7tsp give me the same result. Upon all attempts, Ive completely uninstalled 7tsp (including the 7tsp file in Users\Me\AppData\Local\Temp\ as gor17981 had once mentioned)...

Im really hoping someone might be able to help me out, so thank you guys in advance...

Solved!
FYI for anyone who encounters this problem in the future...System protection in Windows MUST be turned on, otherwise 7TSP cant create a restore point, stopping your installation dead in its tracks. I learned this from one of fixits posts to some guy having a similar issue.
So thanks for that Fixit! And for 7tsp...
And thank you again MrGrim.

Hi everyone,

I've just installed ZERO-G for the first time tonight. I've been using Blade for a while now, and thought I'd give ZERO-G a try before Clash Of The Titans ends, because I know its going to be good, and I'll definitely wanting to be trying the latest creations.

Anywayz, I installed ZERO-G and the 7tsp icons theme extras, but for some strange reason the My Computer icon and the Rubbish Bin on the desktop, plus the HDD icons (that's all I've noticed so far) are the custom Blade icons and not ZERO-G icons.

Can someone please be so kind to tell me how to get the entire ZERO-G theme to work.

Thanks in advance. :smile:

when doing 7tsp did you do a restore in 7 tsp app before you added the new pack with it

_Deano_
July 4th, 2011, 03:06 PM
go into c:/windows/resources/themes open zero-g folder then imageres.dll folder think thats the icons you mean just remove them then re-apply the theme

RE3BE
July 4th, 2011, 05:37 PM
Thanks for the tips. I didn't do a restore, is that something I must do first?

I tried removing the icons as suggest above in C:Windows/resources ....it didn't fix the problem.

I will have another look at the 7tsp app and find the restore feature. Here's to hoping that works.

Cheers for the helps dudes :smile:

EDIT:

Oh noes, I used the 7tsp restore feature and now I've got all sort of unpleasantness happening with my PC.

Windows 7 x64 and everything restored fine. Actually after the restore, I suddenly realized how horrible Windows 7 is LOL, I'm really eager to get a nice theme working, this is killing my eyes! :P

Anywayz, after the restore I tried to install ZERO-G and got a pop-up "This program appears to already have been installed on your computer. You must first uninstall the program before you can re-install it"

So I first went into Revo Uninstall Pro and found ZERO-G, but that came up with a message "Running the application's uninstaller failed! Possible invalid uninstall command!"

So I tried Windows 7 Programs and Features in Control Panel to uninstall ZERO-G from there, but it too gave me a message "An error occurred while trying to uninstall Zero-G Theme Pack x64 v1.0 It may have already been uninstalled"

I went back to the ZERO-G installer just to be sure but it won't install anything, and keeps popping up a message saying I must first uninstall the program ....

HELP!!!! I'm stuck with Windows 7 and no theme, its killing me. Why oh why didn't I just leave it be with Blade and be content ....

:crying:

Mr GRiM
July 4th, 2011, 06:42 PM
Run the uninstall in programs and features and let it delete the uninstaller and then install it again, there is nothing to uninstall with the theme anyway as the theme installs to a temp directory first and then a batch file takes over and installs the theme to the theme folder, in fact the only way to remove the theme anyway is to go to the theme folder and delete the Zero-G folder.

RE3BE
July 5th, 2011, 09:15 AM
No worries mate, all sorted now. Turns out for whatever reason I'm yet to understand, that the only way I could get ZERO-G to work was use Regedit and delete ZERO-G from there.

Once I deleted it from the registry it allowed it to be installed with no pop-ups. :smile:

Thanks for the link too, but now that I see those Icons are actually Alienware, I'll stick with the Blade ones ;)

I cant get this object dock to work any help in this is highly appreciated, and the fire fox works perfectly. Now one major thing i have noticed is when you patch files with ux core my speed and drops off about 20% before i used the core i would zip here and their now its hurry up and wait but no other theme patcher works for me @ least on 7 enterprise x64

Ok, so please do not yell at me as I know this has already been stated but I got so lost in the past 12 pages I am just unclear what I should do.

So for this I am going to ask and hope to get a clear explination of what I should do.

I installed the skin and the extras pack (awesome already btw!!) but I can not use the aero versions of the skin at all. When I go to change the skin to any of the 4 options I seem to get the same exact skin, as nothing changes at all.

I do not get the start button change that I see on the picture and a few other odds/ends. I will post a screenshot below.

Please explain how I should fix this. I would very much appreciate it!

Ok so it will not let me post a link since I do not have 5 posts, so I can not provide a screenshot. Any ideas?

Ok one more problem and then I am done...when I am in Outlook 2007 the background is so dark I can not read the text or anything in the window. Can this be fixed? I sure hope so because it would kind of be a deal breaker lol.

Hi Samuel.

Glad to hear you fixed your issues with the theme, unfortunately it's hard to make a dark theme without effecting something other, the only 2 options you would have is to use a different theme while working with office or go into your colour personalization menu and then in advanced appearance you can change the window colour and the window text colour, change it to something you prefer and then save the theme in your personalization menu so if you change your theme you can select it again without loosing your settings.

Thank you for that information. Can you suggest a good theme, free or paid, then that has some awesome skinning and icon packs that do not change the background of so much stuff to such a dark color?

I spend 80% of my time in Office 2007 and Visual Web Developer, mostly VWD and related programs. And of course I need to be able to see what I am doing with good clarity.

Wow! This is amazing. I was a little unsure I could get it to work, but I followed your instructions (very well written btw) and now my roommate is very jealous of my new look. He thought I got some new advance copy of Windows LOL. I am writing here to express my thanks and to ask a question.

I wanted to change the mouse pointers but I can't find your themed ones. I know how to get to the options through control panel etc, but when I click "browse" I only see the default Windows pointers. Maybe I'm just dense and missing the obvious. I basically want to switch the Normal Select and Working in Background pointers. Is there any way to do this? If anyone can help me out, I would be very appreciative.

I try to change the ORB but it will be removed after some seconds.
Is it possible to change?

You will need to remove the explorer.exe folder from inside c/windows/resources/themes/zeroG.
That will keep the orb you have as default :)

when does the pack stop responding? right away, or does it do it when its installing fonts?



Edit: try this pack. i removed a couple things out of it. the fonts and media. you can install the fonts separately if you need them

7tsp Pack

Are you talking about when you hit "add custom pack" or the drop box and nothing happens? If so make sure all 7z files are in the same folder as the 7tsp program.

Mr GRiM
September 21st, 2011, 04:16 AM
Yeah sorry that exe doesn't do what I wanted it to do, it only unpacks to the desktop or where ever the exe is, you will still need to place the unpacked folder in the correct location in your Objectdock install folder.

Anyone please help
How can I remove "7tsp_Zero-G_Icons_Theme_Extras" icons and my Windows Start Up Screen as well as Windows Start up sound.
I already have uninstalled Uxstyle Core and ZeroG theme. And I also restored from "7tsp_GUI_v0.3_B(3003)" and removed 7tsp_ZeroG extra icon.
And after doing these I also deleted "7tsp" folder (from c>Program Filesx 86) and "ZeroG" theme (from c>Windows>resources>theme) .
But my windows explorer icons didn't go back as it was . Same with my windows start up screen and sound didn't go back as it was .
I want these back , how can i do it
Thank you.

Mr GRiM
October 30th, 2011, 10:18 PM
First to uninstall the 7tsp pack run 7tsp and select the option to restore modified system files to before 7tsp was used, there is no need to uninstall the theme though as it does not change any files and you can just select another theme in your personalization menu at any time.

If you do wish to uninstall the theme though the theme needs to be deleted from C:\Windows\Resources\Themes, delete the Zero-G.theme files and the Zero-G folder and that's pretty much it, the only other thing that is installed with the theme installer is Theme Resource Changer, that allows themes to change the start buttons, control panel navigation panes and explorer navigation buttons to change with the theme in memory instead of having to edit system files.

If you want to uninstall Theme Resource Changer open C:\Program Files and delete the folder called Theme Resource Changer, you may have to move it to the desktop as the file will still be in use but after a restart you can then delete it, there will be a couple of left over registry entries from Theme Resource Changer but they should not be a problem, if you want just open the registry editor and search for {F791A188-699D-4FD4-955A-EB59E89B1907} and delete that folder.

To remove the startup screen just delete the backgrounds folder in C:\Windows\System32\oobe\Info and will return to your default one, or you can change it using this program http://www.julien-manici.com/windows_7_logon_background_changer/

If you just want to remove the start button go to C:\Windows\Resources\Themes\Zero-G\explorer.exe and delete the images in there or replace them with your own, they must be png images though and not have the black background.

No you need to patch your system files to wear third party themes. I recommend universal theme patcher. Plus you need to have theme resource changer installed for everything to work correctly. Both can be found in this section http://virtualcustoms.net/forumdisplay.php/896-Theme-Patchers These are the two programs that allow our themes to work correctly

Terrific Theme Mr. GRiM. It simply looks amazing on my desktop.

It would be my theme of choice, if not for the way it affects a lot of my programs color wise. For instance, Orbit Downloader looks all funny. Furthermore, good old word processors all have Black backgrounds to write on now, which, in apps like Microsoft Office and other WTSIWYG apps, kinda defeats the purpose a 'lil. Haha!

Great Theme. Only wish I had the talent to make something like this.
