Windows 7 Minecraft Theme

I created a pretty cool Minecraft theme for Windows  smile  Make your computer with minecraft icons, mouse, wallpaper, and more! Check it out HERE! Also, I would like to continue working on this, so put a comment in the minecraft forum, and I'll see about adding it!

Re: Windows 7 Minecraft Theme

Seems cool. Doesn't seem very functional for everyday use though. Maybe only when you want to get in the mood for Minecraft  tongue

Hmm, I may be able to code an auto-installer for you in Java.  Just gotta do some research on Windows first though  tongue

That would be AWESOME!
edit: Haha, wait. I think if you just click on the downloaded theme, it'll install it for you :3

The cursors automatically reset to the default cursors when you reboot. To fix this, run 7zip as Administrator and open your "Minecraft Theme.themepack" file and extract all the .cur and .ani files to C:\Windows\Cursors, Right-click your Desktop and click Personalize. On the left side of the screen, there is a link that says "Change mouse pointers" and double-click the following cursors and set them to the correct cursors:
Normal Select - C:\Windows\Cursors\sword.cur
Help Select - C:\Windows\Cursors\02 help select.ani
Working In Background - C:\Windows\Cursors\03 working in background.ani
Busy - C:\Windows\Cursors\04 busy.ani
Text Select - C:\Windows\Cursors\06 text select.ani
Link Select - C:\Windows\Cursors\15 link select.ani
Then under the Scheme section, click Save As... and name it Minecraft, then click OK in both dialogs.
That should work.

Facebook seems to mess up a bit for me in the latest dev release of Chrome. I went on your page and liked it. I reloaded and most of the posts disappeared.  hmm

Re: Windows 7 Minecraft Theme

Actually, I googled Minecraft Windows 7 Theme or Windows 7 Minecraft Theme and it was one of the first up! I downloaded it! I'm not really a fan of the really dark background though, but I got my friend using the theme and he loves it! Great work!

Yeah, that's really odd. If you need a link to the sounds, I can give it to you here directly.

Glad to hear! I think I may just post some extra things to go along with the theme on my facebook page (Such as different wallpapers), so keep an eye out there if there is something you don't quiet like on the theme.

Re: Windows 7 Minecraft Theme

Would anyone like to help me with a customizable installer, where people can choose what wallpapers they want, what sounds they want, what screen saver they want, ect. ?

I used to love making themes for XP. I started by modifying a Windows Classic theme in Notepad. It is similar to a Windows 7 .themepack, except it isn't all in one file. All the files have to be in the exact place you set it in the .theme file.
