Thanks to em3 for giving me permission to finish and release this skin.
And thanks for the help while I was working on the skin.

As a long time LE fan, it's very cool to release my own version and share it with the rest. Some parts are made by em3 though so I cant take credit for those parts.
Anyways thanks em3 for letting me do this!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Go to "C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes" and create a new folder called "LE Black".
Put the *.msstyle into that folder.

To use this theme you need to patch the Windows system file uxtheme.dll. You can read about how to do that here: [link]

If you want to use the included Logon place 'logonui_black.exe' in C:\ and run the included logonui_install.reg.

Bugs
Before reporting any bugs try and think of and explaination why the bug occurs and don't assume immediately it's a VS problem. Here are 2

"bugs" I know of:
* Black text background for checkboxes in some applications. (Application bug)
* In Firefox the scrollbar glyph doesn't change color on hover. (Firefox bug)
* Multi row taskbar does not look good. (Theme)

Modification:
For personal use only.

Don't forget to let me know what you think :) This theme is concidered finished, so if you don't like it, don't use it.

Hm, then I don't know what's going on. I also can't fix it on my end as I'm not using Windows XP any more.

Perhaps a stupid question but; have you patched your system for it to allow 3rd party themes?

And thanks! :D

This is my all-time favorite XP style. However, I can't get it to work on Win XP Pro SP3. I've replaced uxtheme.dll and placed the included "LE Black" directory in C:\WINDOWS\Resources\Themes. However, the theme does not show up in the Display dialog from the control panel. Any ideas?

This might have to do with SFC (System File Checker) as it might replace the patched one with the original version. Did you replace the file yourself or did you use a patcher?
