Description:

Windows Vista Theme is a revisitation of my previous theme:
Glass Theme (Windows Vista Inspired)
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Glass+Theme+(Windows+Vista+Inspired)?content=99252

* THIS THEME IS FOR EVERYONE WHO LIKES VISTA APPEREANCE,SO PLEASE DON'T LEAVE USELESS COMMENT, THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO LIKE HOW VISTA LOOKS LIKE (AND NOT HOW IT WORKS)*

Installation:
Unpack the theme into /home/your_username/.themes (if you don't have it, just create it (press CTRL+h to show .name files))
I fixed the original unchangeble-color setting so you are now able to change them.
If you experience problems of visualization of the theme just change the background colors (text, background, selection) in System>Preferences>Appereance>Colors.
For a correct visualization of the theme you MUST have this theme installed to work:
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Ubuntulooks+Engine?content=43255

To install the transparent panel:
Right click on the panel(s)> Settings> Second Tab (background)> Background image> Select the "panel-bg-black-26" image in:
/home/your_username/.themes/Vista/gtk-2.0/Panel/

It's possible that in Jaunty the theme won't be recognized the first time, so you have to customize it from:
System>Preferences>Appereance
to set it to it's default settings:
First tab: Vista
Second tab: colors you wish, remeber that the first row has to be "white, white, color you wish".
Third tab: Vista

If you want them:
Wallpaper:
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Linux+Broken+Vista+(Revisited)?content=99242
Gnomenu theme (you have to install it first, from launchpad):
http://www.gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Linux+Broken+Vista?content=99593

It works fine with my (Mheltin CC) vista icon theme:

Which theme engine does this require? It looks like old clunky Windows 95 on my Debian amd64 system!!

From the way the screenshot looks, I'd say try installing the pixbuf engine.

I did see that and I do have the Ubuntulooks engine installed but your theme still does not display correctly on my system.

Again, 2 lines up:
"If you experience problems of visualization of the theme just change the background colors (text, background, selection) in System>Preferences>Appereance>Colors."
It's a sort of bug, you just need to reselect one color and the theme will fix itself ;)

I did try that (I can read)...unfortunately,no dice dude. Perhaps it's because I'm running Debian Sid and some packages are too new to support this theme.

...and also, let me clarify. It's not the colors, etc. that are screwed up the entire theme seems to not use the engine at all. It's gray, clunky (like GTK 1.0). I do have a newer version of Ubuntulooks engine than the one you linked. This might be the issue, or as I said, perhaps Sid's packages and libraries are too new to support this theme.

I know the problem is not about colors, but, in my case, if I correct colors I can have the theme fixed.
If you want you can send me your newer engine, I can try with that.

Actually I fixed it! I reinstalled the theme engine and installed your them to /usr/share/themes. I then applied the theme. This time it displayed as a glossy theme, but some colors were screwed up. I then changed a couple items in the color palette and viola. Fixed! Great theme. Thanks for your help! Have you done any work with the Nimbus engine? I think it renders a better facsimile of Vista's look and feel than the Ubuntulooks engine does. Just curious.

 Theme integrration ith KDE4

I love your theme but I want to use it in conjunction with the KDE 4.2 desktop. There is an engine called gkt-qt-engine that lets you use different gtk themes for gkt apps inside of kde. I can not get your theme working. Even after I installed the ubuntu-engine rpm (I'm on FC 10) Ant ideas on how to get it to work? It would really complete my KDE look if you could!

 Requests

I'm having the same problem, but I have two requests of two different natures

1) Please redo it on a more recent/stable engine- I've had errors much like the person above.

2) Release another theme which just changes the panel to allow for white font and the mouse hovering action, but keeps the rest of ubuntu's human theme.

The first one is just a general request, but the second one is since the only real feature that I liked in this pack was the panel/taskbar.
