Here is the new Gray8 4 pac of colors.
The colors were made to go with color choices for accent colors in the Windows 8 settings.

60433


Also included are some custom 64 bit system files
time\date.cpl,wmploc.dll
Plus color matching System Properties Logos

60434


Special thanks to @Vigoni for creating the awesome wallpapers for these themes.

It is now updated to use with OldNewExplorer by Tihiy http://www.msfn.org/board/topic/170375-oldnewexplorer-make-your-81-explorer-work-like-win78-one/
You can read more about at the link or visit AskVG- http://www.askvg.com/freeware-to-bring-all-windows-7-style-classic-features-back-in-windows-8-1-explorer-this-pc/
Basically this program can disable the ribbon,put the details pane back on the bottom,plus a few other tweaks.
More importantly it will allow the theme to chage the white images in the Contol Panel.
Which could only be done before by changing the shell32.dll.




Instructions,credits and previews are included but if you have any questions just ask.

Some very nice looking themes Greg keep up the good work, I'm sure the Win8 user will be very happy with them.
Sadly I won't be trying them since they are window 8 themes, I just have no interest in working with 8

Love them Greg!----I already downloaded them from you-know-where earlier 2day!----Currently running the blue one, will upload some screenies soon. Also, the timedate.cpl looks cool with the Work theme I was using before.
Great job man!

I need a bit of help. I recently applied the High Conrast version of Grey8 and tried to apply the timedate.cpl images from this one as was said to do if the timedate.cpl was wanted, but they won't apply. Every time I try the timedate.cpl interface disappears and literally won't open. I keep having to put the default timedate.cpl back to even have a timedate interface. Can someone please explain to me how to properly replace the timedate.cpl images, because the method I found a guide for isn't working.

Hey,
Is it possible to have that theme activated and also have normal office program? It's nearly impossible to work with dark background in Word.
If it isn't possible then can you suggest me themes that have normal background in office and are dark or grey themes? I tried to search but unsuccesfully.

Thank you

Have you tried using the office apps from the
windows app store.They have a set background.

No I haven't and I don't want to do anything with windows store apps. Right now for a temorary solution I found dark theme with white background.
Thank you for your quick answer.
