Hey guys, new to VSB and don't really know my way around. 

So, I love how mac OSX has no window borders, and want to do the same on my windows desktop.  I had found a vista style that didn't have any (http://jasonito.deviantart.com/art/No-Borders-121239556) tried porting it and it didn't work for whatever reason.  So I said no biggie, I'll just edit the visual style I'm already using.  Well that didn't work out as well as I had hoped.  I tried just erasing the images for the borders that this visual style uses, and it just defaulted those borders back to the default aero look.  So then I changed the margin sizes and that didn't do anything (as far as I noticed)

Working under Windows and Caption BUttons > DWM Window > Frames > Normal
I'm fairly certain im in the correct area because when i edited the image, the proper borders changed.

ANyone have an idea of how I could do this?

Thanks!

It's impossible in Windows. If that guy did post an image of a horribly artifacted JPEG you could see they're still there.

What do you mean?  his style looks pretty clean to me, unless i'm misunderstanding you.


Thank's a ton I'll try this whenever i get home.

edit: oh poop he seems to only have 32bit files up as of now.  Oh well, I'll bookmark it for later.

He used a hack. It's still there.
