BLUE VELVET

The dark counterpart to Azure Velvet.

In the style folder are the .ico files for the desktop icons I created (Computer, Network, Bin Full, Bin Empty). To use these, go to Settings/Personalisation/Themes/Desktop Icon Settings. I have found that if you use any .ico file (as opposed to an icon in a .dll file), the Recycle Bin icon doesn't change state automatically when you put something in it or empty it. You have to right-click the desktop and click "Refresh" to make it change state.

There are 4 taskbar graphics, for bottom/left/top/right-positioned taskbars respectively. There's also a choice of start buttons for Windows.

AT YOUR OWN RISK: The Show Desktop button at the end of the taskbar is 15 pixels wide. I use 7+ Taskbar Tweaker by RaMMicHaeL to make the clickable area also 15 pixels wide.

For Start10 users:
There are alternative start buttons for Start10, in case you prefer them.
The start menu graphics work with the Windows 7 Style/Default Theme for Start 10. There are four, for bottom/left/top/right taskbars respectively. These just put the dark blue border in the right place.

I made the style using Curtains v 1.1, on a 1920 x 1200 screen at 100% DPI scaling. If it doesn't work well on other resolutions or DPI settings, please let me know.

I hope you like the theme, or at least find something useful in it to use in your own creations.
