View Full Version : Am I crazy or are black/purple and black/pink based themes almost impossible to find?

I have been searching for WEEKS now for a nice dark black/purple or black/pink theme for either windows 10 or 11, and in dozens of hours of scrolling I've found exactly two, the HUDs by Mr GRiM here, and some actually nice looking neon one from a rather sketchy seeming creator. Given the sketchiness of THAT creator and their site, I definitely don't want to risk their work, so I won't even name them. Shame too because their themes are actually rather nice looking.

I'm likely going to wind up using the HUD themes assuming I can get them to work on my version, but I was just wondering if anyone knew any other nice black/purple or black/pink based themes?

NO IDEA why they are apparently impossible to find, SUCH a pretty colour combo imo.

The ASUS theme has a pink version https://virtualcustoms.net/showthread.php/81045-Windows-10-RS5-1809-Oct-18-Update-Themes-Complete-Collection.

I also imported BadAzz dream and Zero-G in pink but I am not sure where they are located on the site. https://virtualcustoms.net/attachment.php?attachmentid=64903&d=1383975172

Oh heck, nooo idea how I missed that one. I'm usually a little bit eeeh about rocking company logos and such but given the seeming desert of purple out there I might have to try it out for a bit.
That said, I am a HUUUUGE sucker for the HUD series aesthetic and even though it wasn't EXACTLY what I was after when I first started looking, I think I'm leaning pretty heavily towards using the pink version of it, is gorgeous!

Heck that ZeroG is GORGEOUS. More and more I'm thinking I might have to dip my toes into the world of customizing windows themes and try my hand at either recolouring a few or making my own.

Good news, I tracked down my Zero-G Pink and Blue imports on a W10 TH2 virtual machine and have attached them to this post.

Erin might be willing to import Zero-G Pink to W11, I'll tag her in the thread so she sees your post.

Oh my lawdy not only is it black and pink, but it's the PERFECT shade of pink that just appeals SO MUCH to my aesthetic tastes, I LOVE it and will ABSOLUTELY be rocking it on my new laptop, THANKS! <3

Also, definitely back to running W10 myself now, W11 was alright but I got bored of the horrifically buggy File Explorer right quick and went back to W10 22h2 instead, haha.

Thanks Shemhamforash (https://virtualcustoms.net/member.php/280089-Shemhamforash) : I've ported those themes, and I'll upload them in a while.

I'm with ya, always on the lookout for a purple accented theme as well. I'm really not positive but I always set purple in windows 11 and use assorted tools to darken things, and windows doesn't seem to like purple. Its constantly changing it to something more pinkish as it thinks the purple will be hard to read. Its frustrating. But I wonder if that's the reason its not common in themes?
I dunno just speculation.
