Download Windows 8 Consumer Preview (Beta) Theme for Windows 7
We have shared many themes for Windows 7 in past which can provide Windows 8 Metro UI in Windows 7. You can find all these themes in our exclusive Themes and Wallpapers section.
Today we are going to share a new theme for Windows 7 which will provide Windows 8 Consumer Preview look-like interface in Windows 7.
As we all know recently Microsoft released free Consumer Preview (Beta) build of Windows 8 to public which can be downloaded here. This new Windows 8 build comes with lots of new features, enhancements and new UI.

The new Windows 8 theme which we are going to share today, has been created by our friend “fediaFedia“. This theme tries to make Windows 7 look-like Windows 8 Consumer Preview.
The theme comes with square borders in windows and provides cleaner Aero glass effect. This theme also features invisible “Show Desktop” button in Taskbar similar to Windows 8 Consumer Preview.
Also the user picture has been removed from Start Menu as Windows 8 Consumer Preview doesn’t come with Start Menu and Start Menu looks more clean without the user picture.
Following is a preview of this theme in action:
You can download the theme using following link:

It looks cool in the eyes. Why there are some open apps not iconized in the task bar?
I hate the 8DP, it made me reformat my system. I love 8CP, cause I haven’t tried it as yet 😉
It would be perfect with User picture and Show Desktop button in Taskbar.
a small bug with the Show Desktop button when using Taskbar on Top.
