Visual Styles in Windows Vista

I'm afraid not. While you can patch uxtheme.dll in Windows Vista and patch aero.msstyles in Vista with differnent images, the msstyles in XP are completely different.

As you indicated, you can run WindowBlinds on Vista and if you install SkinStudio you can run XP msstyles in Vista. WindowBlinds and UXTheme are pretty similar (you're using wblind.dll instead of uxtheme.dll is the basic difference).

Here are two screenshots of popular XP .msstyles running on Vista with WindowBlinds:

If there is any solution to change the vista interface without using wb please tell me that!

This is where our Custo mascot would come in handy ;) Ask Pyro i'd say ;)

Dude if you look on Deviantart, they've added a section recently for vista visual styles, they work in the same way that uxtheme.dll ones do for Xp. Use the program vistaglazz (google) and install it, then run it and there is a patch option which automates the whole process and has worked seamlessly for me. Then find the files on Deviantart. Easy peesy :D

uhh i stay away from vistaglass now
theres been a bunch of problems with their latest patch causing irreversible changes like having only the classic theme and rundll errors

Adri's been "dead' for months...

I remember hearing a few months ago about a Vista style creator that could also import and convert XP styles, but I forget the details.

We also have a stand-alone XP .msstyle converter. You just need WindowBlinds to apply them.
