Smashing Magazine March 2010 Windows 7 Theme

posted @ Sunday, February 28, 2010 2:44 PM | 10 Comments

It’s that time again…beginning of a new month! That means that Smashing Magazine has released their monthly wallpaper pictures again.

Not as many St. Patrick’s themed ones as I would have expected. Here are your March 2010 Windows 7 Theme Packs for the wallpapers though…including all images (note: some ‘without calendar’ images are not provided by the authors) unfiltered.

For details on these and to see past ones, visit the Smashing Magazine Windows 7 Theme information for the specifications I used for the theme pack as well as previous themes. Want to participate and submit yours? Join in!

NOTE: I know last month had some issues with the .themepack files. I tested these ones on 2 computers and was able to install them. My previous issue appears to have been with creating the packs on a 64-bit machine which I’m investigating with the Windows team.

Special thanks to the Windows Team Blog for hosting these theme packs for us all!

Good work Patrick,

I do this for my work and pick the best of the bunch. Always a happy environment at our place thanks to smashing magazine.

Generally use the 1440 x 900 res though as its what most of our machines are set to.

Matthew -- I use 1440 as well, but got feedback from a lot of folks with much higher. I chose the max resolution so that 'stretch' looked better going down than it does going up in resolution. Glad you like these though. You can install the theme pack and then uncheck the ones you don't like (that's what I do as well).

Worked like a charm on Windows 7 32-bit this month. Thanks again, Tim!
