:laugh: if you look at "Engel.jpg" in the preview (at 58%), it looks like the building is a naked dude, the roof overhang is the dude's arm and the drain pipe is the dude's "drain pipe", and the girl's happily receiving whatever's coming down the pipe.

Is it just me? :laugh:

The VS is nice enough, if a bit bland, which I supose is hard to avoid with a theme like "ashen". (Y)

Didn't mean to be harsh, but I didnt appreciate the comment.

It was a joke about the picture, nothing else. Internet can be harsh.

Anyway, the theme looks great but why the name Ashen? If I remember correctly the first Ashen theme was made by Bant and this one doesn't look like it. Nonetheless, the theme looks great.

No comment.

Thanks, glad you liked it. Somebody else asked me about the name too. Didn't know the other Ashen existed. Named it Ashen because of the dark grayish appearance. This is version II, check my gallery for version I, you'll see what I mean.

This is the skin i'm using.

I love it, but I can't set the shutdown image :(

Glad ya like it.

The shutdown program pictured in the preview is an external software which I use called "Gehrunnerjunge" and is included in the pack. However, if you want your normal windows shutdown dialog to look the same as the Ashen theme, then there is a link on the download page to help you with that.

Hope that helps.

    • I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.
    • It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
    • Why should simply opening the Action Center ... require any significant amount of CPU cycles? Too many are ignoring the elephant in the room: today's CPUs may have similar clock frequencies to CPUs from a decade ago (~4 to 5 GHz), but they run with far higher performance per clock, even on the smallest E-cores. The Action Center is a static, minor desktop element. It ought to open instantly on any CPU made in the past 2.5 decades at even low clocks. Opening a program? Boost away. Unzipping a file? Boost to your heart's content. Right-clicking the notification area? This should be an ultra-efficient, low-impact event that opens instantly. Compare today's UI elements to Windows 7 UI elements. Today's UI elements hardly do anything more substantial or important or critical, yet now require modern-day processors to jump half a GHz to reduce their latency.
    • This is not an option lmao: it is part of the KB5094126 update, pushed to all users. There is no GUI to configure it. Reading the article should be required for commenting.
