NOTE: THE SOFTWARES IN THIS PACK ARE NOT MADE BY ME. I HAVE ONLY PUT THEM TOGETHER IN THIS PACK.


Hey friends!! This is my first pack for XP which will transform its looks and interface somewhat similar to that of Vista Home Premium Edition.

This pack contains:

1. Firefox Vista skin
2. LClock (Vista style)
3. Styler Toolbar (setup) with Vista theme
4. True Transparency for transparent titlebars
5. ViOrb (Blue and Green) for Vista style Start menu orb
6. Vista Cursors
7. Vista Drives (setup)
8. Vista Home Edition Visual Style
9. Vista Icon Packager Theme
10. Vista Sounds
11. Vista System Properties
12. ViStart for Vista style Start menu with working search
13. Windows Sidebar (setup)+(Min Add-ons)
14. Y'Z Toolbar (setup) with VistaXP theme

THE SPECIALITY OF THIS PACK IS THAT IT CONSUMES THE LEAST SYSTEM MEMORY (RAM) AND DOES NOT MAKE THE SYSTEM SLOW.

Tested on:
- P4 1.7 GHz
- Windows XP Professional with Service Pack 2
- 256MB SD RAM
- Onboard S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR (32MB shared)

Despite of the above configuration (good for nothing), my system performance was optimum.

True Transparency is a software that makes the titlebar transparent...consuming the least resources.

I didn't get time to make a help file for installing each component separately but they all are simple to use and easily removable when not needed. They don't hamper the XP System files at all.

And I haven't included Vista wallpapers because they were increasing the size of the pack to 30MB+.

Credits To: Pgase, Ductien and Lee for making the above softwares.

For any querries regarding the installation, please scrap below!!

Hope you all like this...!!

If a little knowledge is dangerous, where is the person who has so much of it to be out of danger.

Did you ask Lee personally for permission of usnig Vistart and viOrb in your pack? And other programs? system properties, vs etc. ? Because you don't have the right to redistribute any software created by 3rd people (Copyright standart rights section). I don't see even credits for the people that actually made that. And anyway - why waste your time creating something what is already created - VTP7 is much better then this. Nothing special in your pack, same programs, same styles - not even a installer or at least a guide! :thumbsdown::(

only frames- TT is pathetic - better to use WB - less memory consumption

no...i haven't asked anyone for permission but i have mentioned that the above softwares are not my creation.

and mr.fediafedia, you yourself know that vtp7 hampers with the system files...still giving such kinda excuses?? the above pack works excellently as compared to vtp7 on a pc with less RAM...thats this pack's biggest point...nothing else.

anyways your themes are excellent!!

and don't even talk about windowblinds out here...i have been using it since long and lemme say...windowblinds does not support old onboard graphics (like in this case) but true transparency does...and its lot more faster than windowblinds...and also free of bugs and crashes.
~pankaj981:iconpankaj981: Sep 27, 2007, 5:50:19 AM
hmm...actually i have asked pgase and ductien about permission but they haven't granted me as yet.
and who's lee?? is he on deviantart?? if yes then lemme know his link so that i can ask him too!!
i downloaded vistart and viorb from a website that i don't remember but that was definately not deviantart.

there's a lot of pain installing vtp...and the pain's screwing when you try to uninstall it. if you don't follow the proper steps (sometimes even when you follow properly) there is a high risk of system permanent crash...and i have gone through it!! if you don't believe then check out the vtp forums and you'll yourself come to know.
that doesn't mean i am against it...everyone is free to try out any thing.

thats not the case with the above pack...each and every part is easily removable.
