yes it's a little basic compare to other ones seen in this sub, but it's pretty clean

Hey guys! I’m looking for a proper, native StartAllBack skin (.msstyles) that brings back the authentic Windows 7 Aero Glass look (dark theme) on Windows 11.

I want to avoid those "hybrid" themes that mix Win11 elements with Win7, and I’m not looking for themes that require ExplorerPatcher or manually renaming files into Explorer7 folders. Just a clean, free .msstyles folder to drop into %localappdata%\StartAllBack\Styles that gives the full Aero experience (authentic 3D glow buttons, thick glass frames, and dark/readable titlebar text).

Right now, StartAllBack only gives me the glossy effect on the taskbar without the actual Aero Glass frames. On top of that, the minimize/maximize/close (_ 🗖 X) buttons are still the default flat Windows 11 ones. I'm currently using DWMBlurGlass alongside StartAllBack, as my main goal is to fully transform Windows 11 into Windows 7 without half-baked hybrid visuals (see attached screenshot).

Does anyone have a direct download link or a recommendation for a solid, pure Win7 skin built specifically for StartAllBack? Thanks!

i gave up on the middle bottom right, what do we think

Here is my setup. The light is not correct one but still is fine, what do you think?

I just published a new update to Pets Therapy - Desktop Pets with the new feature where Pets gets picked up by a school bus which drives them to school! 😀 What do you guys think of this feature?

as the title suggests matugen is integrated with every apps and programs shown for the purpose of dynamic wallpaper based theming.
And almost everything in my rice that you'll see from mods to themes (especially the TUI YouTube and vs code) are made by me.
please give your thoughts and make sure to leave an upvote if you liked it.
as for the dots I'll make sure to leave the link to the repo once i release it.
