First impressions: It's not horrible. One thing: The "Selected" text on Start Menu items is white, agains a very light blue background - almost impossible to read. Looking at your description at devart, I see you don't want to fix bugs, but this is a pretty big one. I suggest you reconsider your "no fixes" stance.

Other than that... it's not horrible. :)

edit: Sorry about the double-post; I expected IPB to append the first post.

I made this **** for free and you don't want me at least to make some few cents? What kind of hater are you?

Thanks for the opinion fam. I didn't test the skin on other computers, so I had no idea about it. I'm gonna check this out once I have a few more bugs and other stuff pointed out.

BTW, no hate for double posting.

It's just another luna mod, and people "graze" this forum all the time.

My own time? I made this skin!

No, Microsoft made this skin, you made a few changes. No, I'm not taking anything away from you, but give credit where credit is due.

I'm not a "hater", I'm white. Montreal is just up the road from Compton now, is it? Fo shizzle.

Dude, seriously, try to look at it from my (our?) perspective: Why would I want to click through annoying ads when I don't have to?

The more you post, the less I feel like being nice about this VS. It's actually pretty bad, sort of a mish-mash of different styles which, when smushed together thusly, doesn't really work. Sorry.

Almost every single bitmap in this skin was made by me. I didn't just change a button and say this is a new skin. Microsoft gave me the format, TGTsoft gave me the tools and I made this skin.

I case you forgot what Luna looked like, go here.

What does being white have to do with anything? Anyways, sorry you didn't like it.

Yes, you used Photoshop and made them but, the ideas came from Microsoft, I can see Luna, Royal and Aero in "your" theme.

That's beside the point, I wasn't trying to imply you didn't put effort into this. I've made a few bad attempts at theme making and realize the effort it takes. Don't take this so seriously, it's only ones and zeros. :)

Yeh, I won't lie that Aero, Royale and Aqua was a source of inspiration. I wasn't aiming at making a completly new skin but more of what the default XP skin should look like. Because I just can't stand Luna and when I see it on a computer, I just want to change it. But problem is, most skin will make people not so good at computer feel a bit lost lol. And nah man, I'm not taking this seriously lol

Aren't those sort of links against the rules? Just asking.

I searched for "Linkbucks" before posting and I found nothing. But I don't see why it would be against the rules.

The caption buttons from the first preview looked much better. And the not-so-glossy startmenu does not fit with the glossy taskbar and startbutton. Otherwise I really like it. So if you could fix this...

Aight. Thanks for the opinion. I'll see what I can do when I'll have some free time

    • This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      This Dell 27 inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor is really cheap after a very long time by Sayan Sen Recently we covered a really good deal on an AMD RX 9070 three-fan model that's available at slightly above its MSRP. If you are looking for a GPU for 1440p gaming that's around the performance of the Nvidia RTX 5070 you should most definitely check it out. Let's say that you are looking for a monitor to pair that up with too. The Samsung 49" G9 curved QD-OLED superultrawide is a good option that can provide an immersive experience. However despite being a very good deal currently (at $855), it may seem unaffordable to you, or you may simply not want to spend as much on a monitor. In that case Dell's S2725QS can be a very good option as it's on sale at the moment for its lowest price in over six months (purchase link under the specs table down below). The big highlight of the Dell S2725QS is its 27-inch IPS panel with a 3840 x 2160 (4K UHD) resolution, offering a high pixel density that can make text appear sharper while also providing plenty of screen space for productivity and media consumption. The display supports a refresh rate of up to 120Hz through both HDMI and DisplayPort, making it suitable not only for everyday desktop use but also for smoother gaming and scrolling. AMD FreeSync Premium support is included as well, helping reduce screen tearing during gaming sessions. The screen has fairly good brightness and color accuracy so you can use it for general work purpose, though photo/video editing is probably not going to be the best match for this. The technical specs of the Dell S2725QS are given in the table below: Specification Value Viewable Screen Size 27 in (68.58 cm) Screen Mode 4K UHD Maximum Resolution 3840 × 2160 Maximum Preset Resolution 3840 × 2160 @ 120 Hz Standard Refresh Rate 120 Hz Panel Technology In-plane Switching (IPS) Backlight Technology LED Edgelight System Pixel Density 163 PPI Response Time 8 ms GTG, 5 ms GTG, 4 ms GTG Horizontal Viewing Angle 178° Vertical Viewing Angle 178° Brightness 350 cd/m² (nits) Native Contrast Ratio 1500:1 Color Support 1.07 Billion Colors Color Gamut 99% sRGB (CIE 1931) Adaptive Sync AMD FreeSync Premium HDCP Support Yes Mount Type Panel Mount VESA Mount 100 × 100 mm Maximum Height Adjustment 13 cm Tilt -5° to 21° Swivel -30° to 30° Pivot ±90° Stand Adjustments Tilt, Swivel, Height, Pivot Glass Hardness 3H Horizontal Frequency 27–270 kHz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Vertical Frequency 48–120 Hz (DisplayPort 1.4 / HDMI 2.1) Video Inputs 2 × HDMI 2.1 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3), 1 × DisplayPort 1.4 (HDCP 1.4 & 2.3) Operating Temperature 0°C to 40°C Storage Temperature -20°C to 60°C Operating Humidity 10%–80% (Non-condensing) Storage Humidity 5%–95% (Non-condensing) Get it at the link below: Dell S2725QS 27-inch 4K 120Hz IPS monitor: $218.49 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $280) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.
