Artist's Note

Sustenance Visual Style for Windows XP by KoL

This theme is based on an idea that FOOOD (www.foood.net) posted on gfxOasis.com
Package contains six different colors; Blue, Metallic, Olive, Ergo, Slate and White. Each color has 3 different Fonts and Compact Start Menu.


I want to thank FOOOD (www.foood.net) for this idea, letting me create this theme and for letting me use his excellent icons on the shellstyle.
Also I want to thanks everyone on gfxOasis.com that tried the beta, reported bugs and gave me their suggestions and comments.

To use the Visual Style you need StyleXP (www.tgtsoft.com) or Neowin UXTheme Multi-Patcher v2.5.1(http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=140707)
Extract the zip to C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes


UPDATE 1 (v1.1)
---------------
- Changed group menu images
- Fixed the toolbar buttons image
- Changed the colors of inactive text
- Some small fix that you won't notice


The images and icons used in the shellstyle are property of FOOOD.net. Distributing these images and icons commercially or with any intent for monetary gains is prohibited.
NO MODIFICATIONS, PORT OR REDISTRIBUTION WITHOUT PERMISSION.

Thanks for the re upload kol. This is a wonderful luna alternative and something more than the minimal theme you might come across every now and then. Variety is always good and you've given us plent of choices to choose from. Outstanding work.

Nice improvement on the original XP theme. E-mail it to MS and tell them to ship that instead.

Best style ever - still using it. Would love it in a deep smooth milk chocolate colour... then I could have Substance to go with all my walls. Would this be at all possible....?
