VS = Visual Style in case you didn't know
Anyhow I changed it and I want some opinions. You can also ask me for assistance on anything related to the subject as I am pretty much an expert (self-proclaimed one hehe). The main thing I would like is some opinions/advice on is the objectdock theme and desktop gadgets as I really haven't spend much time on them
Try not to be too harsh, however, it would be my personal recommendation to be sitting down when you click these links...just saying...
Screen 1
Screen 2
And since I believe in giving credit when its do, the VS was made by Mr. Grim of Virtual Customs. (I'm not advertising I just want to give the guy credit for his work)

What program is this? A few days ago I considered downloading Stardock, but I wasn't sure how well it would work :P

They're not bad. Although I dislike the taskbar for some reason.

Well...its not really a program that you use to change the VS itself. You use one to patch some system files and then you mod it yourself from there. Its pretty simply use just have to copy files to the right place. I also just installed the cursor myself, and it was made by some guy on virtualcustoms
Both screens are the same thing btw just one with some windows open and the other without any windows open.
The only programs I am using is fullglass for the glass effect, and objectdock for the programs on the top of the screen.
Oh and I did use windows 7 start button changer to change the start orb to what I have right now.
And I as far as Stardock is concerned I have never used it except for objectdock which I think is made by them.....

VS stands for virtual system, you can run another operateing system inside 7. I dont see the point of changeing.

You could just get WindowsBlinds. That overrides the visual style.

I'd show mine but I'm on iTouch.

Okay lets try to be intelligent here. In this instance is just abbreviated Visual Style VS and I stated that. If your not actually going to read the post then just get out. I can't take your attempt at intelligence seriously since you spelled changing and operating incorrectly. And I don't want to run another OS inside my win 7 because that's more of a hassle then what I did.
Oh and also if you just say "horrible" or any other one word post then your opinion is null and void. Constructive criticism please or just don't post.
Thank You

That's what I meant to say. Typo sorry.
Oh and if my post portrayed me as very angry then that is incorrect. I'm not angry, Visual Style is very commonly abbreviated VS and I don't need someone to try and tell me that its not. If the thread title is deceiving then I apologize but you should still read my actual post

I like the transparency of the windows and start menu, but everything else looks horrible IMO.

Sorry.

Well if your going to talk about something get it right, your desktop looks horrible I dislike the colour,background pic and the start tab, I fail to see the point of changeing, when I make a typo I don't waste a post by correcting it.
