Aura:
QUOTE
Aura is application that calculates average color of desktop background image or active window icon and sets it as Aero Glass color. It works like color hot-track in Windows 7 taskbar. Aura written in C# using WPF and Visual Studio 2010.

Note: if you don't see any changes, just increase windows color intensity in personalization (Right click on desktop -> Personalization -> Color settings)

System Requirements:
- Windows Vista/7
- .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 (for Windows Vista)

QUOTE
App that adds avatar of curent user to the notification area like in Windows 8.
By clicking on this pic you can open control panel, log off, switch user or lock PC.

So this is a quick unfinished version of Aero Lite's recreation for 7.

Here's what's done:

Window Frame (Aero)
Window Caption Buttons (Aero)
Push Buttons
Combo Box
Radio Box
Check Box
Taskbar
Taskband
Start Menu (Aero)
Jump Lists

I will continue editing this until I replace at least 90% of all imagery in the msstyles. Enjoy.

- Use it AT YOUR OWN RISK! because the tools still alpha at the moment and may contain bugs
- Come with resolution of 16:10 and 16:9 but only in *.bs7 file, there is no *.exe installer since some people encountered error with that installer

I use a reg file downloaded from the web : GrantAdminFullControl.reg

then u right click the folder (system32) will have an option to 'grant admin full control'.

Interestingly after updating to win7 SP1 Elune visual style doesnt apply to my "forward/back" button.

If you follow the instructions shouldnt have any problem

1 - download and use uxthemepatcher OR uxstyle core (newer, and safer cause it doesnt mess with ur system files)

2 - copy paste the theme folders to windows/resources

3 - replace explorerframe.dll (i think u did correctly)

4 - reboot!


After tweaking a bit the visual style is fully working again rclxm9.gif
