==== THE WIN2-7 PACK IS NOT UNDER DEVELOPMENT ====
Thank you for visiting the Official homepage of the Win2-7 pack!
=== Intro: ===
Even from its start in late 2009 as an Gnome Icon pack, the Win2-7 Packs goal has not changed...To be the most comprehensive, easily installable, customizable and most user friendly Windows 7 Transformation Pack on earth for the Gnome Desktop! :D We are amazed at how close we have come! Feel free to download and install it, make sure to vote if you like it and comment if you have anything to say and even donate a few bucks! But be sure to read the FAQ first before you install. We have put in hours and hours to make the Win2-7 pack do a very careful and safe installation and uninstallation, but none the less, use at your own risk and make a backup just as you would during any major update. Anyone involved in the Win2-7 Pack Team is not liable for any dataloss or damage that is the direct or indirect result of the Win2-7 Pack.
=== Quick FAQ: ===
Q: How do I install? A: Run GUIInstall.sh.
Q: How do I uninstall? A: Run GUIUninstall.sh.
Q: What languages are there? A: English , Danish and Croatian.
Q: Is it compatible with my system? A: Check the "Compatibility Chart" under Links.
Q: How can I extract it? A. Use "Extract Here" from the context menu or run "cat Win2-7Pack*.tar.lzma | lzma -d | tar x" at a terminal.
Q: When extracting I get: "This does not look like a tar archive"? A: Remove ".tar" from the end of the filename.
Q: I want to help translate? A: Send Dart00 a Private Message with your language and personal e-mail and experience.
Q: My Panel Menu does not look like the one in the Screenshot? A: Gnomenu must be installed (using Win2-7 Essentials or some other way) and added to the panel manually.
Q: It looks like it installed correctly but does not have any of the Microsoft logos, icons, sounds, cursor...etc. A: You did not install the Win2-7 Restricted Extras in the Win2-7 Essentials options.

Whats big in 6.6 is we replaced the BASH installer with a Python installer. It has a much better GUI and makes it so much simplyer to install.
Translations will be coming soon.

I installed the theme and everything went perfectly well except that there is no transparency whatsoever except for the bottom panel. None of the windows, etc.
Also when I add gnomenu to my panel, it won't open when I click on it. It just kind of dark but won't open. It works if I create a second panel on top of the desktop and add it there though.
Thanks.

Also True Aero only supports Mint 9 and 10 and Ubuntu 10.4 and 10.10
Hmm...strange. You could create a custom panel at the top of the screen, make it 40px tall, remove the bottom panel and move the top one down and add Gnomenu, Dockbar X, Notification, click and ShowDestkop manually.

I reinstalled everything and for some reason gnomenu works fine now. However the window decorations still aren't transparent. I started up comiz fusion icon and switched the windows decorator from GTK to Emerald. When I do that the windows decorations disappear all together.
Any ideas?

You could try running the command: "emerald --replace" from a terminal which is what compiz fusion icon does.
I would ask around on a emerald fourm.

I got one question, I can't open the compatibility list (picture), so I'm asking, Ubuntu 11.04 and Mint 11 work with win2-7? , I've opened the installer and It says two things, that the windows manager cannot be found(gnome cannot be found) and that my linux version is not probed yet (Mint 11). should I give it a try anyway? Thx btw, Mint uses GNOME 2.32.1 and 2.6.38-8-generic kernel
