OK, I really wish all you people would stop acting like little kids and only reply if you have some constructive criticism. Jesus Christ.

I'll bet that unique has a life outside of theming and computers, and, as a result, is not going to be able to release updates every hour just to satisfy the demands of a bunch of little kiddies hitting "refresh" for hours on end hoping to see something new.

My view is: reply if there is something you'd like to see in the next iteration, and leave it at that. I'm sure unique will let us know when an update is available; you don't need to hound him about it.

yea this is a great theme i wish it was still in the works. (damn those who ruined it for us.)

Damn those who ruined it for us?? Look no further than the author of this thread...mgartner should not have given the "rights" to this VS to someone who isn't even a themer. I don't think mgartner knew this so I don't fault him for it. The only modifications that have been made since mgartner gave it away have come from OTHER people and unique just slapped it together.

This VS should become open source since mgartner gave it away and unique just lets it rot. Just think of the creativity and IMPROVEMENTS that would come if this was open source...

Oh well...it's not like we're hurting for quality VS's from quality themers right now anyway.

Is it "politcally correct" in such circumstances for interested people to try and contact mgartner instead and ask (politely of course), whilst informing him of the status of the theme, and appropriate permissions to continually maintain and develop this theme, and is able to devote sufficient time and effort into improving it?

I'm sure many people would jump at the chance if mgartner also gave them the privellege to do it. Unique got it coz he tracked him down - he was the only one interested, I'd say it's more likely you'll get it if interest is shown to find mgartner. That way, everyone'll be happy and mgartner will know the status of the seemingly halted development of this much beloved theme. =)

Well, unique obviously doesn't care anymore so how could it be politically incorrect for someone to contact [mgartner]. He's still around so I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to ask him.

I mean, just think if someone like bant or kol or themenorth got a hold of this thing. I'd sure be interested to say the least...

Hey guys! Funny how the ###### have come back out to spew their words of wisdom....

I have granted permission to an individual to use my theme and alter it...in fact, its already been released....I will pack it up and toss it in the zip file...and in case you all forget, I said, do your mods, and send them into me....no worries...i am at work, and will get into this more when i get home...

laters all.

All the people complaining that they want open source are the same people that drove unique away from this theme in the first place. So you should be mad at yourselves. I personaly want to thank you morons for ruining a great theme. I hope unique does get back to this because it's a great theme and it's a shame the village idiots keep ruining it.

Please unique for the sake of the rest of us give this theme another shot. Thanks for your consideration.

Save it, you don't know the half of it...

    • The problem of course is simply that government does not always know best. My point is that agency is taken away from the EU consumer in these cases. I'm sorry, but I do not believe that governments (politicians) are inherently good, and "looking out for me." Primarily they look to themselves and their own personal desires first, foremost, and always. When the EU or the DOJ fines these companies, claiming to "represent the welfare of the consumer," how much of these billion-dollar judgments are handed to the consumers they claim to represent? Not even a dollar, as I've seen. Yet the EUC lawyers who are paid to sit around and dream up these suits make huge commissions on the fines the EUC adjudicates, which is an ironclad fact I hope everyone is aware of. It's also rank corruption, of course, but that's another topic. Last, when the EU inflicts these judgments, or the DOJ, take your pick, the costs are bundled right along in the cost of the goods and services these companies provide the consumers they are "looking out for." If you are someone who believes his government is his savior then you have my condolences. I think Apple is right here, because the whole scheme of consumer choice is that consumers pick and choose among the products companies offer. Microsoft Windows is more compatible with third party software and hardware than any desktop OS on Earth, which is my sole reason for choosing it. Just because the EUC forces companies do certain things it knows the companies do not want to do, "or else", has no bearing on consumer benefit. This Siri thing is almost idiotic it's so infantile. But this is what the EUC does when the EU in Brussels becomes cash-strapped and needs a big infusion of cash. Some people get upset by "big companies" but it's the opposite when governments dwarf the size and scope of these companies, which is so obvious it hurts.... I mean you can't honestly believe that forcing Apple to do things with Siri it has its own reasons to decline is something that "opens up" Apple, do you? Say it aint' so...
    • Looks like many years since the request was made, a directory tree view finally may be added. https://github.com/files-community/Files/pull/18537
    • There's this from last year https://gist.github.com/threat...364659a8887841aa43deca4efd9 but nothing about a buffer overflow that MS somehow can't code against. No matter what, it makes sense to take a "protected by default" approach.
