This is called Vienna VIP and it will be on my laptop for some time. A big thank you to one of the all time great customizaion artists – gef.
This DesktopX theme took hours to compile over the past week and I used gef’s Vienna DX theme as a base and adapted it to my own taste and style. If you have not tried this theme you are missing something. The animations are amazing. The little doors on the top bar click open and closed with such precision. Some of the other sounds and ‘mouseovers’ are wonderful and with a click of a button you can bring all the other attributes into play like the shortcuts menu you see at the bottom plus the calendar and weather gadgets on the side. The shortcut icons were collected from some of the galleries here at Wincustomize and over at deviantART plus I made a few of my own using icons from my system with that powerful little tool that comes with Object Desktop, Icon Developer.

Talking of MaxStyles, it would be amiss of me not to mention the ‘instigator’ of Vienna. vStyler. The Windowblind is one of the all time greats. Thanks, John.
There are another couple of items that are hidden from view but are equally impressive. Vienna Xion Player by messiah1 is acting as the media player and the Vienna cursor by J.Aroche is a nice piece of work. Two great additions to ‘The Suite’. Thank you.
And last but not least – the wallpaper – a truly magnificent piece of art called Ag SiO by allhopeislost over at DA. This was one of the components of the a collaboration over at DA which bought together a Windowblind for XP and Vista, Styler Toolbar, Xion Player, plus a Firefox and Miranda skin.
