Windows 10 Themes created by Ten Forums members

I have never thought much to Microsoft's icons (cant stand yellow folders LOL) so I don't use them :)

You all are really good at this, you should be proud of your work.
On the high contrast themes how do you change the color of the thin white borders around all the windows, taskbar, scrollbar, ect? I must be missing them in the registry somehow, or is it an option(s) in SMACC?

Hello Hemimax,
Nice start button! :)

As odd as it may sound, the window thin border is actually the TitleText: it will change the title text color.

See both active and inactive.
The border seen in Personalization (theme) window is the WindowFrame.
Scrollbar and other stuff is Button...:
for instance a red look:
ButtonShadow=128 0 0
ButtonHilight=192 0 0
ButtonDkShadow=255 0 0
ButtonLight=255 0 0



I don't know these by heart, I test them out by editing a *.theme file and reapply pretty often, to see the changes.

For more information about the elements, check a rundown of the theme elements (also seen in SMACC) compared with Windows 7's Advanced Apparance:

Is there any chance that you geeks might compose an "icon pack" for us noobies, for the at least most popular / common third party software?

Kari said:

EDIT: I mean both a desktop icon pack and a Start tile pack

Wynona said:

I second that, Kari! I'd also like to have icons for extra hard drives and a few extra mouse cursors. :)

I'll need reinforcements for this... but I'll shoot a few rounds on my own.

Check @Stephanie post above, has some decent icons in it!
For icon packs i'll start checking those on DeviantArt, see dAKirby309's icon set. Packs like these should contain tiles and icons to choose from.

Mouse cursors: where a discussion subject not so long ago on this very thread.
Start with some of my remastered series on EightForums: most of those, where specified, are high DPI compatible:

Need some more exotic designs, see rw-designer gallery:

a Start tile pack

@Cliff S got the hang of the tiles pretty quickly. But we've made one or two. A whole pack is the next level. Users would have to add the files manually for their installed programs as there are no tools to do this automatically (are there?)

More on tiles: maybe an app or two:

@Hopachi,
My new 7Zip tile:)
Note: I found the image in Bing Images, but couldn't find the original artist name.


I needed to rename it from 7zFM to 7Zip in C:\Users\User Name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs

Here's what it looks like:

I just made one for Skype too!
Same as above, I got the PNG icon in Bing Images.
