This is the blue version for now. There will be more colors if people like this. I wasnt planning on releasing it, but people wanted it, so here it is. Keep here and request a different color if you want it.

DOWNLOAD HACKED SEER

b.t.w. There is a quicknotes skin to match the theme and fit next to winamp. It is not original totally, so if the creator, who I think is Dangeruss has a problem, mail me.

Problem:

You can't read the text when you pull up certain menus. For example, if you pull up display properties, under the "Themes" tab. You have the option of:

Ok, Cancel and Apply. You cannot read the Apply button. The font colour blends too close to the actual button.

Second problem:

If your programs list, under the start menu is two bars long, the second bar doesnt show the "blue" stripe that the first bar has.

Cheers,

Chem

Well all the problems you are mentioning are from original Seer then. I just changed colors. And, faction, what was blue that shouldnt have been. All I really did was buttons and the systray and start button.

I will try to fix those problems, though I didnt make them.

P.S. That color problem with the blending text will be fixed soon when I have time.

Redrope, You still want me to do the winamp skin for this?

There is a quicknotes skin that redrope/I made... hopefully we can get that to all of you soon.

Ezpop and trillian skins on the way as well....

Yeah, we need a winamp skin to match the blue/grey seer

Regarding Seer's origins and permission status.

Essorant (Tim Dagger) begat Seer as a Windowblinds skin and a NextStart theme. I became involved when I asked to port the basic elements into several other skins. see My Seer stuff for 15 other Seer skins before reinventing something to accompany Seer (hacked or otherwise).

I made revisions to the Seer skin and offered it alongside the others in the collection.

Kol did the XPtheme conversion (with permission) and now we have Brad (redrope) doing this "hacked" version. All these variations are cool with me, but should include credits to both Essorant and Dangeruss when you're showing off, or offering for download, your Seer inspired goodies.

Thanks!

Redrope and myself have talked about this...

We're planning on making Hacked.Seer in various colors:

Green, Red, Light Blue, Dark Blue. If there are any requests, please tell us.

I'm making the winamp skin to accompany this as well as an alternative ezpop skin, and redrope is making a trillian skin and an ezpop skin as well.

Look for all of these to pop up this weekend.

Redrope (Brad) and I (Jason) know eachother in person and go to school together, so we've got this planned out pretty well.

Btw, that quicknotes skin that Brad put in the .zip file was made by me, but I used the previous quicknotes skin and changed it around dramatically so it isn't really a ripoff, and modifications were done by Brad.

As Dangeruss just stated, why reinvent the wheel? There are already 15 skins in his Seer Collection. Winamp is among them.

      They thought value of their goods would forever only drop like it used to and didn't account for sudden increase in price because of all the Ai hype. Tough luck Samsung, don't try to weasel this one out. Also American customer protection laws are a**. In Europe, you need to be compensated for a functioning product of same or better characteristics (not same price point as when it was originally bought!) if it can't be repaired and when you receive a replacement product your warranty starts from scratch because you received a different item than you previously had and old warranty thus cannot apply to it anymore. If your actual item was successfully repaired, warranty gets extended for the period the item was in service. If item is repaired to a significant extent, warranty also starts over from scratch because major part of it was replaced. Americans need to fight to get this kind of consumer protections because they are constantly getting screwed over.
    • Microsoft releases new Windows 11 Media Creation Tool with the latest updates

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Microsoft releases new Windows 11 Media Creation Tool with the latest updates by Taras Buria Patch Tuesday updates arrive every month, bringing users new features and security updates. To make sure customers have access to the most recent images, Microsoft also releases updates to the Media Creation Tool app, its official utility for Windows 11 installation. Today, the company pushed new ISOs to Media Creation Tool, allowing you to create images with the June 2026 Patch Tuesday updates. With the latest update, the Media Creation Tool now downloads KB5094126. It is Windows 11 version 25H2, build 26200.8655, which is also available via Windows Update. Note that the app itself remains on the previous version, which you can check in Properties > Details. The only change is that it now downloads a more recent Windows 11 build, so the only way to check is to download an ISO. The June 2026 Patch Tuesday update is a special release for Windows 11, as it brings a new performance profile to make the operating system more responsive and snappier when rendering various user interface surfaces, including the Start menu, quick settings, and more. It does so by spiking processor speeds for a brief moment, resulting in higher loads for a second or two. The so-called “Low latency profile” is rolling out gradually, but you can force-enable it with the ViVeTool app. Other changes include webcam improvements, Task Manager updates, shared audio support, and more. You can download the Media Creation Tool app from the official Microsoft website using this link. Besides MCT, Microsoft lets you download Windows 11 ISO as a file directly from the official Windows 11 website. However, you will need a third-party app to write it to your USB drive. Check out this guide if you want to know how to do that.
