    Torrent is here.

    Are torrent clients smart enough to read off an existing file even if it's not from the same torrent as the old? If so, and if you still have the old .zip hanging around, you could try to download to it using the new torrent.

    Has to be the exact same file, but as long as that is true it will work. If it's a zip file that's in a different order however, or compressed at a different rate, etc. it won't work even if it contains the same files.

    I didn't use any compression (figured no point, it's all compressed images anyway). Would the client still be able to pick out runs of common data between the two and work from it?

    From what I understand, no.

    Try setting the tracker manually to "http://www.sumotracker.com/announce". If that worked, I'll re-up the torrent with a fixed tracker (very seriously suspecting I munged it up). If that doesn't work, your ISP hates you.

    Guys.

    If you want to get rid of the recycle bin, then download the Tweak UI powertoy from the MS website. It lets you change tons of stuff about your desktop and settings. It also lets you get rid of the shortcut arrow on shortcut icons.

    just double click on the Windows Style file and it should load, and put it in C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes\ if you want it to show up in display properties.

    I'm pretty sure if you try to skin Vista a microsoft employee comes to your house and beats your face in with a wooden mallet.

    Of course this is probably preferable to actually using Vista anyway.

    I had to resurrect this thread to pimp out my new clear menu bar, and sweet wallpaper courtesy of the wallpaper torrent.

    Clean:

    Clearly, the menu bar has some kinks to work out, but the it is really just too sexy otherwise to matter.

    Its from the Mulan Soundtrack.

    I've been in a Disney faze the last few days. They had some good writers.

    Also, that theme was (I think) called "Go!" and I think its version three or something.

    Oh god, how do so many people in this thread leave the default XP theme on? You don't even need to get into fancy themes and shit, there's a couple of perfectly acceptable alternatives included with XP!
