Zune Theme for Windows 7
-
Is there a Zune theme for Windows 7? I've been using it on XP and I really like it. For anyone who hasn't seen it: Zune Theme for Windowx XP[^]. But I can't find any mention of it for Windows 7. Thanks.
Why? The normal black Vista theme is already very similar and you should be able to make Win7 use a Vista theme. BTW, I used it as well on XP and found changing to the Vista black theme pretty comfortable.

Unlikely. Microsoft always changes things within the MSStyles format between versions of Windows.

Yes, that's true about the MSStyles format but that's not what I meant. The Zune theme won't run on Vista, but Vista provides much better control over how everything looks without the use an actual theme file. Win7 will provide that same level of control (if not more), and just like Vista allows you to use a "Classic" theme, Win7 should still allow that and also allow you to customize your colors so it still looks like Vista. Keep in mind that in some ways there are just as much similarities between Win7 and Vista as there are differences.

So, the only thing useful that came out of the Zune is to create an XP theme ? :rolleyes:

So much hatin' on the Zune in this thread! I love my Zune. :) It's not any better than an iPod, but it sure disturbs the Mac-o-philes when I talk about how great my Zune is! Did I mention how great my Zune is?

And in all honesty, that's the only thing I would really want for my iPod is built-in FM. Don't care about the rest of the Zune features much. :) Flynn
