I have a problem
When I am in Lite Step and I reboot my computer it keeps booting back up into the Explorer shell. You can imagine my frustration. Any idea what is wrong. Im guessing a configuration problem.
I have not been able to figure it out.
You think double posting is a pain.
Imagine double booting....
Please Help!
lol
most people cant get back into explorer.
I think this is a first.

I have one final request please.
Could you tell me where to change my theme so I can get the menu items to look white like in this screenshot. Also I would like to have this blue version of the wallpaper and the meters side by side like that.
Thank You HG

Csurfside....in LS there should be a shortcut [if not linked to in the theme it'll be in the litestep/utilities folder...or perhaps a popup like...
*Popup "Set Explorer as Shell" C:\LiteStep\utilities\SetShell.exe "explorer.exe"
*Popup "Set Litestep as Shell" C:\LiteStep\utilities\SetShell.exe "C:\LiteStep\litestep.exe"
In Exploder you 'should' have 'set litestep as shell' on your desktop....just click it and reboot.
If you boot into the wrong shell...bring up your task manager...and kill the shell process...either Litestep.exe or explorer.exe ....and reload the alternate as a 'new task', et voila...

Can someone please tell me how to add a shortcut to the task bar in Lite Step, if the program's preferences does not have that option to do so.

This is a nice combo.
HG let me know when you get the widget with the side by side instead of stacked. Thanks

Now that makes my day!
Thanks guys that means alot to me.
You just dont know!
HG, I am referring to the icons on the bottom left of the screenshot in post #468. On the slim black bar.
It would be called the task bar in the "exploder"( Jafo) shell. Some programs have an option to "display in task bar." What I want to know is how to add that short cut if the program does not have that option to do so.

Csurfside ....if what you want is to access the 'set shell' options in Litestep...copy and paste the two popup lines I posted into your theme.rc ....in the appropriate section....or in a popup.rc if it is separate....recycle and you'll always have 'em accessible via popup...

Thanks Jafo
That is a big help!
I have been doing alot of trial and error type discoveries with LS and I am editing all kinds of goodies.
I mean what I said before! I just can't imagine a better theme to use. I tried everything else, but this theme is hands down the best! The only thing I could imagine better then this theme, is just adding more to this one.
HG even updated the top clock on the TSll theme and made it 'switchable' to a "virtual desktop"
he even added a little time display to the bottom bar. And I noticed we can type commands straight into the theme via the bottom bar also. However, Im not sure what commands one would issue from there. I just keep discovering all types of little goodies.
I cant believe that I might reformat my PC just to change the system name so that the meters widget will display "Csurfside" instead of "Craig"
Thats when you know your a die hard fan!

Update:
Well HG finished the side by side version of the DX meters widget.
He also showed me how to edit the widget in DX builder so that I could change the name.
This means that I now have everything there is thats related to the Turtle Soup II theme.
Its been a long road. 1st discovering the them, then learning how to use Lite Step, to the long drawn out Doodle Bug search (we found him
). Which led to the private released version of the theme (thanks again Arjun!), then HG had to rebuild the theme cause of a computer crash, with Jafo's help they swithched it to OTS 2, then adjusted the resolution to fit 1024x768, now I have the blue version to boot and its all good! 
I guess there is nothing left to say... Mission Accomplished.
I suppose now I will let this thread slowly disappear. Long Live TSII. It will remain on my desktop forever more.
It will be hard but I will start a new thread with a new mission when the time is right.
until then...
Thats All Folks...

Doodle Bug should be making more skins. His images are simply incredible.
I wish he would spend more time at wincustomize.
