Glass effect

Kornowski · 02-04-2007, 04:08 PM

Hi,

I was wondering if anybody knew of a program that will give windows that glass effect that vista has?

And the toolbar arrows... like XP has the green circle with the arrow in, How can I get it to look like the Vista ones?

Like this:

Thanks

There's a free Vista transformation pack here for XP, also comes with an uninstall but does replace some system files.

Thanks

Is it Ok to use?

Or is there any software that will do this?

To tell you the truth, I've downloaded it but am a little apprehensive to run it

It looks really cool but if something should go wrong and I want to uninstall it does say that some people have had problems.

I'm looking for a braver man than me

I know, I've looked it up and people do say there are problems with it and I don't really want to go through the hastle...

I've found something that does the Alt+TAB flip browsing thing, it's called Top Desk
