Artist's Note

Hi guys
After a long time I'm very excited to announce my new theme "VistaVG Ultimate".
Its an update over my previous theme "VistaVG RTM":
VistaVG RTM : http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/48901895/
I have fixed a few BUGs, Added new features, new styles!
FIX:
1. Chevron BUG fixed.
2. Startmenu image BUG fixed.
And a few other BUGs fixed...
NEW:
1. A new style "Black" has been added to the theme after a lot of demand for black titlebar.
2. A separate theme for Startmenu Searchbar lovers. It shows the Vista searchbar in Start menu but its fake. You need "LSPatch" to use it.
And more...
UPDATE:
1. Titlebar Text is shown in Left now.
2. Common Tasks are also shown in Left but I have included a "shellstyle.dll" file for bottom common tasks.
3. Aero style for 32x icon size is default now.
4. Lots of new Vista images, like "All Programs" arrow, Explorer arrows, Startmenu images, Logoff/Shutdown images, etc.
5. A few colors changed.
And lots of other small updates...
HOW TO USE:
1. Extract the contents and u'll get a folder.
2. In this folder, you'll get 4 more folders:
=> Bottom Common Tasks (This folder contains "shellstyle.dll" file for showing common tasks in explorer at bottom.)
=> Fonts (This folder contains Segoe UI fonts required for the theme. Copy them to "%windir%\Fonts" folder.)
=> Styler Toolbar (This folder contains Style toolbar for explorer. You need "Styler" installed on your system.) You can download Styler from here:
http://www.crystalxp.net/galerie/en.id.551.htm
=> Theme (This folder contains the main theme.)
3. Copy all contents in "Theme" folder to "%windir%\Resources\Themes\" folder.
4. Now you can set the theme using Desktop Properties.
5. Also make sure you have patched the "uxtheme.dll" file to allow 3rd party visual styles, if its not patched, then download and run the UXtheme Patcher from here:
http://www.softpedia.com/progDownload/Uxtheme-Multipatcher-Download-2369.html
I hope you all will like this theme as you liked all my previous themes.
Please give your valuable feedbacks.
Please don't release/distribute modified versions of my theme without getting my permission!!! I know all my files. ;)
Regards

Just a suggestion, you might want to fix that preview, its a bit tiny. :) My little brother used this skin and I have to say its really a nice job. Could totally fool my eyes.

The whitish space around the "Exit","Restore", and "Minimize" buttons shouldn't be there. It's fine for now though. Otherwise this Vista theme is amazing. I've compared it to others and this is the best.
