Vista和Win 7帶來(lái)了第三方主題的消亡

Win7之家（ afsion.com.cn）：Vista和Win 7帶來(lái)了第三方主題的消亡

 Windows Vista的出現(xiàn)改變了整個(gè)Windows的世界。但并非所有的改變都是我們想看到的，比如，主題。

Windows XP不大好看，這是無(wú)可爭(zhēng)議的事實(shí)，默認(rèn)的Luna主題除了干凈和單調(diào)外一無(wú)是處，后來(lái)微軟為其發(fā)布了Royale主題以改進(jìn)外觀。但此前，已經(jīng)有不少主題作者為XP制作了不少主題，而其中，不乏精美的作品。

很多人都參與到了主題制作的行列中來(lái)了，而且，用戶無(wú)需為此支付，僅僅是下載-破解主題-使用這么簡(jiǎn)單。幾乎每周都會(huì)有新主題出來(lái)，因?yàn)橹黝}作者們都在堅(jiān)持不懈地推出自己的新作品。

但Vista的到來(lái)毀了這一切。隨著全新主題系統(tǒng)的到來(lái)，主題作者們感到有點(diǎn)無(wú)可適從了，很多創(chuàng)意都無(wú)法在主題制作中隨意揮灑。老實(shí)說(shuō)，95%的主題都只是對(duì)默認(rèn)Aero的一些修改�；蛟SVista的主題很難修改，或許做主題的越來(lái)越少，但不管怎樣，事實(shí)擺在面前。

沒(méi)錯(cuò)，我們還有Windowblinds，誠(chéng)然，Wba主題的制作幾乎可以隨心所欲，有了.avi的支持，可以制作出更絢麗的效果。但問(wèn)題也很明顯，第一，很多用戶不習(xí)慣安裝第三方軟件來(lái)應(yīng)用主題；第二，WindowBlinds是收費(fèi)的，這是最根本的問(wèn)題，為了換個(gè)主題，花這么多錢，值得么？

而更可悲的是，Vista僅僅是開了個(gè)頭，Windows 7對(duì)主題的控制依然很嚴(yán)。沒(méi)錯(cuò)，默認(rèn)的Aero已經(jīng)很不錯(cuò)了，但這是個(gè)個(gè)性張揚(yáng)的年代，我們需要更多個(gè)性的東西。問(wèn)題是想不通為何微軟要對(duì)主題控制得如此之嚴(yán)格。

真的不想看到主題制作的消亡，對(duì)此，Vista和Windows 7有著不可推卸的責(zé)任。

離開了第三方主題，還能真正個(gè)性化么？

附部分原文：

Windows Vista changed so much within the world of Windows, as Microsoft threw that red headed step child out there for the world to see. Not all of those changes were good. Your mind is flooding with obvious jokes after reading that, I know, but it's true in ways many people tend to forget. Vista, in many ways, did to the skinning community what The Buggles claimed video did to the radio star: Killed it.

Windows XP was ugly. There was no way around that fact. The default Luna interface looked as though it was drawn by a crayon on a crumpled up napkin. Nothing about it was clean or polished. It was bad enough that, after a while, Microsoft released the Royale visual style to spruce up the appearance of their star operating system. However, before Royale, there was a large community dedicated to changing the appearance of XP. A few select members of that community were celebrities, in their own right, and had a large portion of the geek community captivated by their works of art.
