Nope... If you follow the winsupersite link under the screenshot you mentioned that's a Stardock Start8 dialog.

Well there you go ... burst my bubble :( ... thought I was first to notice a change in Windows 8!

Sorry guys.

Sigh~

You really have too much spare time and use it to generalize every single Windows user, just like Microsoft is doing right now.

Transparency overkill in my opinion, no thanks. I hate the idea of text in a windows/dialog box that's so transparent that it gets lost in the wallpaper or another window under it. That just makes my eyes bleed.

Well, once you hover over it you get full opacity, and again, I like a lot my backgrounds, your opinion is just that, an opinion, don't generalize FFS.

Who's generalizing exactly? Because I sure as hell am not.

If you guys don't like the white, or w/e then there will be themes to download and use, there have always been themes, this isn't going to change. I don't much care for it being too white as well, a darker theme is more to my liking but if that's not an option then I'll find a theme that matches what I want.

Made it better, it seems, and given those who dislike the Metro experience an option for the Desktop to be shown instead of the Start Screen whenever they login :)

The 'do you want to boot to the desktop' dialogue box is from Start8, not Windows 8 RTM. Check the WinSupersite link below the screenshot.

the red close button hurts in my eyes.

Would you prefer more white or grey? :p Heh, I'm kidding. I don't think the close button looks particularly nice. I'm not sure whether I'm a fan of how this new Desktop design looks, but I do prefer it to the design of Windows 7.

I think your desktop looks really cool (Y)

Thanks mate.

Some others, for the sake of what windows will miss with all this "metrification" going on, please disregard the backgrounds, I'm a huge Suigintou fan, please note the themes, they are everything but what Dot Matrix have put. (Even win98 is in there... because even windows 98 doesn't hurt my eyes as metro does, plus has start menu)

Edit: Better this size.

I'm not sure this thread has enough anime yet.

That's everything i got really, they are a compilation of several screenshots taken randomly since I think 2008, when theming was quite good. I promise I won't post anything else.

    • Google is opening the world's first AI museum in Los Angeles by Ivan Jenic Image via: Google Ever since AI image generators went mainstream, the debate over whether AI-generated art is real art hasn't let up. Those who don’t consider AI to be art say that if a machine does the creating and anyone can prompt it, there’s no skill involved, and therefore no art is produced. The counter-argument is equally persistent, as defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool, and that every major technological breakthrough, like the camera or the computer, was met with the same skepticism before eventually being accepted as a legitimate creative medium. Google’s position in this debate is clear. Which is no surprise, as the company is investing billions in AI infrastructure. And now, in efforts to encourage people to use its AI even more, Google is opening Dataland on June 20, which it's calling the world's first AI arts museum. Located inside The Grand LA, a Frank Gehry-designed building in Los Angeles, the museum spans 25,000 square feet. The museum is built around a collaboration with media artist Refik Anadol, who has worked with Google since 2016. The inaugural exhibition is called Machine Dreams: Rainforest, and is powered by an AI model trained on “an extensive dataset of the natural world.” It generates 1.2 billion pixels of visuals in real time and reacts to visitors dynamically. The space also generates soundscapes, real-time emotion sensing, and algorithmically produced scents. Image via: Refik Anadol Studio / Google Google says that the museum is powered by its Gemini models, which run on Google Cloud. So, everything is generated inside one of Google’s AI data centers and is streamed to the museum. Alongside the museum opening, Google Arts & Culture is funding an AI Artist Residency, giving four artists $25,000 grants each, along with mentorship from Refik Anadol Studio and access to Google's machine learning tools. Their work will be shown at Dataland and on the Google Arts & Culture website later this year. Google’s AI museum will undoubtedly initiate a fired-up debate on social media, and we can’t wait to see the first reactions. Via: Smithsonian Magazine
    • Calling GTA 6 overhyped crap doesn’t make you edgy, it just makes you sound like someone who hasn’t enjoyed anything since the PS2 era.
    • I’m not arguing whether Rockstar likes money. Obviously, they do, they’re a business. I’m saying this isn’t new. They’ve always launched console first. This is just how Rockstar operates.
    • I'm not sure how old the school is, but they've been doing this since GTA 3. Back in those days we'd be lucky for game companies to release on the PC at all. And with the current state of Sony (or Microsoft) their gaming wing won't be getting a penny from me.
