Presents...
NEXTLevel
...the wait is over!
From now you can enjoy my newest visual style for Vista :D

Bring your desktop to the next level with the NEXTLevel!

VIEW FULL PREVIEW

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Package contains:

NEXTLevel visual style in 2 versions:
● modern taskbar
● alternate classic taskbar

Matching nature wallpaper (dual monitor versions available):
● widescreen
● fullscreen

| Ryan

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Installation:

Quick Guide:

To use custom visual styles you need to patch your system, via VistaGlazz or TuneUp Utilities

Next unpack 'NEXTLevel' folder to 'C:\Windows\Resources\Themes' (where C is the partition with Windows installed)

Now you can change the visual style by clicking any .msstyle file, or via 'Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Personalization\Window Color and Appearance'

● Click here for the full installation guide ●

I want to thank very much ~Michel8170 for his help and support

Also ~patrickgs for the help,

~UkIntel & ~psycoB for their great work on HEX reserching

And thank goes to Mando for allowing me to use his wallpaper.

Some parts of this theme are inspired by Thallos VS, a beautiful theme for Windows XP by `-kol

Daily Deviation

Given 2007-12-15
As the suggestion note said, "~Vathanx has obviously put a lot of work into NEXTLevel and as a result has produced a stand-out item for the sparsely-populated vista skins gallery. Making vista skins is not easy due to the lack of tools, and we need to encourage more people like him to help get the ball rolling". I have nothing else to say than "amazing!". The best VS for Vista I've seen so far. ( Suggested by ~chalkley3 and Featured by `manicho )

You really should port this to 7, wouldn't take too much work (and will make it easier to port to 8 soon enough).
