Windows 8.1 skin

from WinCustomize Forums

Ive been working on a Mac'ish skin for Windows 8.1 running latest Windowblinds. Its based on the Corporate skin so nothing I will put up for dl but I wonder if anyone knows if its possible to skin the white stuff under the titlebar? (Or atleast change its color) Where it says Arkiv and so on. Cant seem to find a way, im using Skinstudio and would be thankfull for any help!

Sorry Henke, but the ribbon area and the bottom white status bar area can't be skinned.  But if you install OldNewExplorer it makes Windows 8.1 look and function almost exactly like Windows 7. Using it here with no issues. :)

Ah ok, well thats a shame....thanks for the OldNewExplorer link though, might give it a try.
