Hey J-Slade, you are a king smile.gif
I was first worried when i saw your 1st page post, so damn long... not sure if i will be able to achieve Vista look transformation.

but now, I got it work 1 after another
Thanks to XP-Vista Transformation Guru, J-Slade biggrin.gif

but, i still have a few issues which I need advice from you all:

1. Start menu misalignment

2. Control panel icon and Windows open file popup icon wont change.

3. I am using IconPackager at the same time, do I need to unload or uninstall this app before using VIP?

@ bobtiang,

1st problem.
- Apparently WindRider is also facing the same problem as you. But I don't know how to solve this. But lets debug... hmmm firstly, which skin are you using? WB or Msstyle?
[bobtiang] I am using WB 5.5 with AeroGlass skin (from 1st page).

Guys, apparently a lot of people can't seem to get the Icon Pack. I don't know why all sources of it on the internet has been removed but I am uploading it to my site here. Please download it quick. I intend to remove it really soon.

HURRY!!!!!
For the 2 links you provided previously, i managed to dl it using the download add on (DownloadThemAll) on FF browser.

THANKS A LOT dude...

@bobtiang...

1st picture.... the wb skin that u use maybe for lower resolution so ur desktop is higher, not sure about that !!!! hmm.gif

2nd picture... unload ur iconpackager and install again, that should do the trick !!!! nod.gif

hi, I tried changed the resolution from my ori 1800*1200 down to 1024*768, but i still got the same misalignment.

i restore the windows default icon on IconPacakger, and then installed VIP. and all icons were now turn to Vista look.

but personally, i think Iconpackager is much more cooooler smile.gif
so, i might wanna change it back to use IconPacaker.
