Who want want the Taskbar at the bottom anyway, with the Apple logo on the start button and all. :p

Me. I'm used to the taskbar at the bottom of the screen. Also, I'm not really into the Mac-OSX look, hence the need to have the taskbar at the top is eliminated. The 1st thing I usually do with such themes is to edit out the Apple logo. But that's just me. :cool:

BTW, stefanka, I noticed a small detail I thought might need correcting. There's a slight shadow at area 1 of the image below, that seems to be missing from area 2.

Sure, a discussion board is full of comments by various people.  However, there are million different ways to comment.  What these "boo hoo" kids fail to realize is that these themers put a lot of effort and time into creating a theme (although some themes can be very quick & simple to make) and the they are more than willing to share the theme w/ the rest of the world for FREE.  Despite their personal opinions (both negative & positive), the receipients (the boo hoo kids) should recognize to wholeheartedly appreciate the themer's work.  If you don't like a particular work and the themer disagrees w/ your opinion, just learn to change it on your own rather than repeatedly "bitch" at the themer to change it for you, or don't use the theme at all.  Again, I know that comments are expected in a discussion board but the comments should be addressed in a manner that promotes a themer to think about or re-evaluate his theme rather than merely ****ing him off by saying "it sucks", for example.  Let's say you're walking down the street and someone offers to give you a free t-shirt.  You look at it and decides not to take it because of the design, color or whatever the reason.  What do you say to the guy who's offering you a t-shirt?  It would be more appropriate to say "Thank you for the offer but the color is too bright for my taste" than to say "It sucks.  Go and make it darker and put a flower print on the sleeves".  That would be rude.

I agree. Themers can request help from a moderator if they feel that they are being harassed. I'm sure that the customization moderators and the rest of the team are willing to provide support where needed. Just let us know because sometime things slips through :)

With that said, I didn't mean that members shouldn't be saying stuff like "Can I have a Windows flag version?", "it's too dark for my taste", or anything in that fashion because remember, it defeat the whole purpose of having a discussion board if people weren't allow to comment and discuss. When comments turned into harassment, that's when we come in and sort things out. Just ask :)

Unfortunately, my english is very bad, but i found someone who translates.

In the first instance i do my skins for myself. But many people contact

me, thus i release them.

I'm open to honest criticism (bug report), but many people get offensive.

I would never say "I don't like the colour" or "That is ****". Everybody

has its own taste and style.

Either i like it or not. But you can't discuss about taste and style.

Like Hush Hush, that's okay. You're right. That's a problem.

But the start panel was more complicated than it looked. I worked on it

for a long time but unfortunately i couldn't do it better. That's due to

the windows interface.

This is a very nice theme.

As far as the negative comments that offer no constructive criticism, I look at it like this:

I feel that the title of this particualr forum " Completed Visual Styles " is pretty distinct in what goes here.

Kindof like, " St. Johns Mall ", where you would expect to browse, and buy things you like.

If I walk into a department store and see soemthing I dont like, its not like I run to management and say, "Hey, this shirt is too dark, its not my type". Nor do I tell Tommy hilfiger that the threads in his shirts are too tight especially if im not going to purchase it

These guys are just posting here for our benefit. I highly doubt they give a damn about anyones approval for the theme. Its hearing that there are satisfied people that makes it worth while.

If I DO download a theme that looks nice and it crashes my PC, then I would say I have the right to complain but when someone offers an ass of time and devotion for free, I have no intentions on throwing it back in their face; goot theme or not.

Im out.

PS: Thanks Themers in general, stefanka in specific.

    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
    • You didn't like Mafia The Definite Edition? As a fan of the first when it came out, I liked that remake.
