Aero 8 Glow
This theme is a port of the default Windows 7 theme with a few modifications to try and bring back glow on the caption buttons, there are 2 styles, one with square corners and one with rounded, to use this theme with rounded corners you will need to enable aero glass [link] and have the aero glass tweaker tool v1.2.1 [link]
This theme is more of a trial and does have some bugs that I will probably not fix, before using this theme make sure you are using UxStyle core or have patched theme files or you could end up with a black screen on reboot.
Feel free to use this style or any of it's resources in your own projects, I do not request that you give me any credit for this work as it's almost all the default Windows 7 style anyway.
Other Programs you will need:
Start Is Back (by Tihiy) Brings back the Start Menu [link] Free 30 Day Trial, $3 for 2 licenses
Aero Glass for Windows 8 RC3 (by Big Muscle) [link]
I made a Aero Glass for windows 8 all in one installer for your convenience you can download here [link]
Ribbon Disabler for Windows 8 (From Sergey @ WinAero) [link]
UxStyle for Windows 8 (Very Important to do this first) Must be used to be able to have custom themes [link]

Tengo un problema en Win 8.1 64bit: goo.gl/jzLc3B

You will need to donate if you cant figure it out, never tried it myself, just got a license glass8.berlios.de/donate.html

I do but still very experimental so make sure you have a system restore and your files backed up before using it www.mediafire.com/download/rm5…
Excellent job there. I like it. It even works on Windows 8.1 RTM as you see on the screenshot. Except one problem is with the buttons when the program is maximized the white symbols on it seems to be slightly to big for it

Here you go mate, try this one, I worked on the Caption buttons a bit more and made some big improvements, they look even better then the Windows 7 ones now. www.mediafire.com/download/g11…
Thanks that better as you see on the screenshot. I mentioned the same thing to xXiNightXx and he just got angry at me saying he not wanting to support Windows 8.1 RTM yet and blocked me on his forum. At least you was nice to fix the problem
