This mod grew from a finishing Royale Noir project to encompass Zune bug fixing as well.

If you are a fan of Microsoft's Royale, this is the only Royale theme you will ever need.

The theme now consists of 3 color schemes, Royale, Royale Noir and Royale Zune.

For Royale Noir, Microsoft came 50% of the way, and I went the other 50%, a lot of work and bugfixes was done to finish the theme.

For Zune, work was done to better the distasteful orange and many bugfixes implemented that Microsoft messed up.

Current version is 1.47, screenshots and the very long changelog can be found in these forum threads:

Updated 4th Nov, 2007 to Version 1.47. Read the Changelog in the Readme for the list of changes.

I had to re-up the links to stop the user emails from coming, so I took the opportunity to fix the glitches brought up by users the past year. Thanks for the emails even though I might not have replied to all.

Very, very nice theme. I was a fan of the original Royale theme, but this one blows it out of the water. +fav

Could you make this with a thin taskbar? That would be pretty sweet as well.

To put it plainly, you just made all the other Royale Noir and Zune mods look like half finished amateurish school projects. Very well done!

I registered just to let you know.

very nice job on all of these. only thing i find weird is on the dark blue theme, the start button has lighter blue pixels near the top right. i know they made it like this but it just looks like a mistake the way i see it.

Yea, I know, I made it that way. Seems M$ decided that's where the light hits, so I stayed true.
