Unique animations for Windows Xp,Vista and 7

from WinCustomize Forums

Due to the fact that there is no Windowsfx for vista or Windows 7, my friends and I decided to create our own effects.


So far, we have comeup with a startmenu animation, the dodge on focus effect and the fluid effect.

We also plan to release effects when a window is closed, the mac effect of minimising a window to its icons on the desktop and a cursor effect.


These can be found here

WindowsFX does work on XP and a updated version has been announced for Win 7. 

Vista had some of the effects build in that are in WindowFX so they didn't make a compatible version.

How do you plan on releaseing your animation package, paid or free?

Will there be compatiblity issues with WB's or the other Stardock products?

oh my god!!!!! Do I looks like a business man!!!!!! :thumbsup:

All theses effects are FREE to use, absolutely FREE.I am never going to make it a paid version.these little animations are done in my hobbies and I share it with everyone.Anyone is free to use and modify as they wish to do so.

 

Concerning compatibily issues, autohotkey uses native windows commands, not only will it work on vista, but also on xp and win 7 beta.so far no incompatibility issues have been brought up and if such is the case, I will definitely make my best to resolve them out.

 

I hope this solve any confusion.If not please leave a message and I will be glad to answer any doubt. :grin:
