PLEASE READ BEFORE YOU POST!

Luna Element v5.1 Blue, is a Windows XP visual style and is inspired by the WinXP default theme Luna. A few parts are still in original design so I can't take credit for everything. This theme is also inspired a little by the Windows Vista GUI. It's a nice combination of old and new in my opinion.

To use this theme you need to patch the Windows system file uxtheme.dll. You can read about how to do that here: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=140707

When you have patched uxtheme.dll you place the .msstyle in desired folder and run it.

If you want to use the included Logon place 'logonui_blue.exe' in C:\ and run the included logonui_install.reg.

This VS includes 2 styles:

* Blue

* Blue Compact

Last Updated: 2007-01-28

Latest Version: 5.1

Updates

1 update is in development. LE v5.1 SE. Changing the shade of blue.

Bugs

Before reporting any bugs try and think of and explaination why the bug occurs and don't assume immediately it's a VS problem. Here are 2 "bugs" I know of:

* Black text background for checkboxes in some applications. (Application bug)

* In Firefox the scrollbar glyph doesn't change color on hover. (Firefox bug)

* Multi row taskbar does not look good. (Theme)

Mods and application skins...

Sure, no need to contact me about it. A link to my DeviantArt page is appreciated.

    • A coalition of publishers sued OpenAI and Microsoft over scraping content without consent

      Just the price of doing business. The scamble to pull as much from the web as possible is happening, and it's happening before a case like this changes how or what is legal do to with AI in terms of data harvesting. But even then as we've seen with the likes of Google who ignore cookie requests and just accept the fact they'll get fined, it's built into their business price model now. AI is here, its not going away. Their reward if any from the court case would be best suited to trying to incorprate AI or licence their end points as authentic human verified content. The problem is, as we've seen these same news papers are using AI themselves.

    • This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of

      This Chinese company is reportedly developing a feature Apple and Samsung can only dream of by Hamid Ganji While companies like Apple and Samsung have been relatively conservative with their devices’ battery capacities in recent years, Chinese manufacturers have taken the competition to the next level by introducing significantly larger batteries. However, the latest report from China suggests that a local company may already be developing a smartphone with a whopping 14,000mAh battery. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claimed on Weibo that a smartphone maker is developing a device with a 14,000mAh battery. If true, it would be the largest battery ever used in a smartphone and could, in theory, provide up to a week of battery life on a single charge. The leaker did not reveal the name of the company behind the device, but there are some clues. This week, HONOR unveiled the X80 Pro Max in China with an 11,000mAh battery and 90W wired charging support. The company also launched the Honor Win in January, which packs a 10,000mAh battery. HONOR, a former subsidiary of Huawei, has a proven track record of developing smartphones with unusually large batteries. However, other Chinese brands, including Xiaomi, have also launched devices such as the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max with 7,500mAh batteries. Though Chinese users on Weibo also believe the company behind the new battery is HONOR. Interestingly, Digital Chat Station said the device with the 14,000mAh battery weighs around 220 grams, making it lighter than the Apple iPhone 17 Pro Max (233 grams) and slightly heavier than the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra (214 grams). The iPhone 17 Pro Max currently packs a 5,088mAh battery in eSIM-only versions, while the Galaxy S26 Ultra features a 5,000mAh battery. Neither device is expected to see a dramatic increase in battery capacity in its next-generation successor. So when it comes to battery comparison, Chinese brands are unbeaten. HONOR smartphones are currently available in the EU, but the Chinese brand has no official presence in the United States due to restrictions imposed by the U.S. government.
