Anyone Know of a Theme That Looks Like Windows Vista?

from WinCustomize Forums

Windows Vista was the first Windows version I used. Had it on an old compaq machine. Does anyone know of a theme that looks like Vista? I've tried looking on here. I saw Vista Plus but that's a completely different custom theme on it's own.

To my knowledge, there are none. That's kind of the idea of using Windowblinds themes to NOT look like native Windows, and I would assume no-one saw any point in making a theme looking like a relatively new version of Windows that most people disliked. Just wait until it's not around anymore, then the retro Vista themes will pop up for sure.

Thank you both for this!
I had completely forgotten about that one, Kitty!

I'm still checking daily for a Chicago theme for Curtains. I've seen it in screenshots as a theme for Curtains. Just haven't found it anywhere.

LOL, that's literally what I use Windowblinds for is to make my machine look like other versions of Windows. Hope I'm not the only one. I agree it wasn't the most popular version but it holds a special place in me and I love the nostalgia, brings me back.

Just so you know, you aren't the only one.  I use plenty of other cool Windows Blinds from Wincustomize, but sometimes I just want my computer to remind me of nostalgia.  The whole reason I'm seeing this post is because I was looking for a Vista theme and couldn't find one.

Thanks to Simplex Designs, and your post of course, I now know.

 

Thank you everyone!
