Vista transparency for XP(beta) ***WARNING BIG PICS(1280x1024)***
***Pics were resized, thanks howard for reminding me about that rrule:approve:
Just found this download for XP that mimics Vista's transparency effect on the boarders of the window.
It has Internet Explorer and Explorer.
The Stuff isn't scalable or maximizable(if thats a word) and it's a really really small window(either 640x480 or 800x600 I think its 640x480) but it's in beta so maybe one day.
anyways here's some pics of it on my puter.
Here's the place where you can download

Its ok...A bit buggy like the maximize doesnt work, and its slow...But when you open it has a nice fade in effect. I am not sure i like the transparensy though...It messes me up ;)

It's still beta so the maximize and resizing doesn't work yet but hopefully will soon.
The transparency thing messed me up too at the beginning but after some use I really like it.

ohhh very very cool find. i will definitely keep my eye on this very closely. FYI: the download includes two .exe files: a regular file explorer(explorer.exe) and the second an internet web browser (iexplorer.exe, what the author calls internet explorer 7)... it looks great too.... ! :approve: :approve: :approve:

I wonder if something similar can be applied to KDE 3.4.2...
BTW, your background looks like a friend of mine.

your friends with tara?
I don't remember if I saw something here or somewhere else having something to do with a vista "skin" for ppc. I know that vista may go to ppc but I'm talking about a skin thats out now. I'll try to find it.

Nice program. It will be great when maximize and resizing options are added.
