Description FULL INSTALL PACKAGE, INCLUDING WALLPAPER, ICONS, BLACKBOX BUILD, PLUGINS and 3DCC CONFIGURATION.
All you have to do is unzip Blackbox Music.zip under C:\Blackbox (rename your Blackbox folder if you already use Blackbox), restart (if you already use Blackbox) and either double click on Blackbox.exe or use a shell switcher like ShellOn (if you haven't used Blackbox before) and enjoy.
With the exception of menu icons, everything else is WYSIWYG, including window decoration buttons, wharf icons (only one drawer included with icons as a template, the other drawers include empty buttons you can decorate and link them to your own apps) etc.
The Wallpaper and the wharf inset background are by [link] [link] [link] included with his permission. Rafido did this wallpaper after my request and I thank him for his time and effort.
I also wish to thank NAOHM1 [link] for bringing this artist and his artwork to my attention.
Again, this theme is for a resolution of 1920X1080 or higher. For lower resolutions, please note me
Anyone who wishes to try Blackbox for the first time, please e-mail me for instructions.
If you want to learn more about Blackbox, I suggest you read an introduction here [link] and my tutorials:
[link] tutorial part I - the shell
[link] tutorial part II - the plugins
[link] tutorial part III - the styles
They are pretty much outdated by now (I MUST find time to bring them up to date... lol) but they will give you a general idea.
And, of course, feel free to ask if you need more info or instructions

I can't really talk about the quality of the theme, since I don't have Blackbox, or even Linux, but judging by the quality of the art presented here, I'd say it's damn good.

You are welcome and thanks to you too, so much!
I liked to customize Windows, and I'd love to try out Blackbox, your screenshots are so tempting!! But the computer I'm currently on has some instability, specifically oftenΒ when I put my computer to sleep, and when I turn it back on, I see that it has restarted, so all the applications I was working on are closed. It's all the more of a problem because in addition now, on startup, it says "incorrect password", and it asks me to enter one, even though I checked the "start without password" checkbox in the Windows settings, but when I enter it, it accepts it, it is the right one! So there are periods when I find myself having to enter a 20 character password, every time I turn it on, it's quite tedious. All this to say that I'm hesitant to tamper with the shell, for now. Anyway, thank you very much for your offer to help me!

The last update of Windows 10, on a HP laptop. No I didn't. Maybe it could be the solution indeed. I'll look into it. It'd be so awesome to be able to try out your Blackbox, I'm tempted! Thanks again!

You're welcome! Currently I just use it as a wallpaper... Because I have no clue on what's "BLACKBOX" so I just added "BLACKBOX' PAGE ON DEVIANTART": to my devwatch for a later try ASAP

Ricktw In reply to pitkon [2012-12-07 12:31:03 +0000 UTC]

Okay... Btw I faved it sounds a cool feature, though some people tells having issues with Windows 7... That said, it's true that Explorer is resource hungry and slows down Windows 7 a lot. But Anyways I'm new to Windows 7, and as for previous versions of Windows (which includes XP, ME & 98), I never customized them cause Microsoft is not very talkative about how their OS works... Therefore, I need to learn this, and I hope to find time to do so.

pitkon In reply to Ricktw [2012-12-10 10:43:40 +0000 UTC]

Yes, BB and Win 7 don't look eye to eye sometimes, but there are ways around this. About customizing, that's why there were so many shells around - to make up for Windows' shortcomings. I hope you find some time too

Ricktw In reply to pitkon [2012-12-12 14:04:03 +0000 UTC]

It will be difficult at the moment because I'm already on two projects:

1 - Customizing my profile page: Indeed I'm learning tricks to make it better... But my profile page is under very huge construction and looks more like a building site than a profile page lol... Btw I get my tricks from =CypherVisor who is an awesome free tricks provider. If you don't know him & his tutorials, he's really worth a look too. He's to dA what you and/or #BlackboxDesktop are to Operating Systems, in a way I guess...

2 - I'm the Co-Founder of a new twin Groups project and it's complementary Group and it's really time consuming too... The idea is to make a Group where ALL the main dA Categories quality Artworks are featured... But Stock Art and other Art could not be housed in Only one Group. So I had the idea to make two twins Groups cuz it was the only solution. Feel free to make a look and you and/or others Members of #BlackboxDesktop can also join (or devwatch) one Group (or the Stock Group if some people make also stock) Cuz the Devs I see coming in my devwatch are really Awesome!!! We would be very Glad to feature them. Moreover we need Members (and Contributors), and Btw have a gap to fill in Customization... Well, Hope you won't consider that as spam... lol. Nope it's just opportunities sharing in fact.

But I don't loose for customizing Windows, I hope and I think that near Xmas or next New Year's Day, I will have more time... Thanks...
