Open Theme Standard: OTS2 Screen Resolutions: 1024x768
Theme Description: I know not many people here use Litestep, but someone asked me to upload this, so here it is. :)
Having XP but wanting the look of Vista and the power of Litestep, I devised this little theme. It has some Vista overtones, but it's not just a complete rip-off. All objects of the theme (taskbar, systray, shortcuts, and clock) are either always on top or "auto-hide" (shown via hotspots). The taskbar is moveable to the top or the bottom (alternates with shortcuts). The readme file covers this in detail. You can opt to have a crisp theme with nothing but the clock (which you can also hide, if you want), or you can have everything going at once. It's totally up to you.
Lastly, I added "on-the-fly" transparency changing. You can make it 100% opaque or even 100% transparent (why would you want to?). Since I really wanted this to be full of options, I made it to where you can actually change the transparency of the taskbar, popup, systray, clock, and shortcuts independent of each other or all together. You can also edit them all at the same time. I also made an option for people that sometimes hit the wrong option. If you accidentally just change the transparency of one of the objects, you can opt to switch everything else to that same transparency (so you don't have to independently do it). And, lastly, you can always find the transparency value of any object. The value will pop up in a message box.
Hope everyone likes this. Sorry it's not for more resolutions. It would actually be quite easy to work with anything bigger. Anything smaller might be a problem, but who really uses 800x600 any more?!? If I get a huge amount of interest in other resolutions, I might come back and make it.
.lsz file is in the zip file, so unzip it, then install that way. It wouldn't let me upload just the .lsz file for some reason.
