Personally, I don't like this theme at all. Non-creativity and odd style from combining Luna with Plex additions. But I decided to be for Longhorn. that's why I created this.

You'r not the only who thinks that.

I mean Plex wasn't all that but if you ask me this looks awfull.

It's really a weird plex-luna combo, and if you told me this was downloaded from luna recolored section of themexp i believed it.

:no:

It becomes time that they hire everaldo and some apple designers to do the GUI, that would be better. ;)

BTW the port is done very well. :)

Let me give you some terrible about your wanted concepts.

If you want to make it looks OK, I have to make inactive caption bar as active ones wit hdifferent text color. OK?

Fixed.

Wow, amazing! Please release a Beta 2, please!

will you let him work at his own pace, he's killing himself trying to get it done. When hes ready, he will release.

Is it just me or the beta theme only comes with the original black slate? Where is the blue one?

Where is the final link?

jeez. i hate people like you who don't read threads properly. he has been working for months on this project. let him release it whenever he is done and thinks it's fully done.

I hope you see the irony in this; you "haven't read the thread properly" either apparently..."months?" Build 4051 has only been out for 3 days. His first post was Oct. 26

aww, lets look at some more irony shall we?

if you had properly read this thread, you would know he HAS been working on this longhorn project for over a month now, but yes he only started working on the new Slate theme just a few days ago.

:no: tsk tsk :no:

I'm not going back and forth with you past this point, but we're only talking about Slate and build 4051 stuff, that's what he's waiting to release

No, thats not what I meant. I think he should just immediately package up the current development copy of Slate in a RAR file and post it up here. :)

Wanna heard more. Ones in shot was disposed. CaptionBar is too poor for me to accept. Now I made CaptionBar looks exactly same as active bar but change font color.

AND I WON'T POST ANYMORE BETAS BECAUSE I WILL PUBLIC IT AS RELEASE AFTER THIS TIME IF ANYONE CAN HELP ME THINK FOR SIDEBAR TASK.

hey i thought of an idea to help release this longhorn pack finally

he needed an idea for another thing on the sidebar

well i thought of two... but the problem is we (x and i) both do not know how to do it

if it is possible, could someone make a bandwith monitor/ cpu usage monitor based on html flash or java

greatly appreciated and it would FINISH this stuff so X can finally release it :)

I heard there was a poopy slate theme when you disabled the side bar, I think this was a mistake that Microsoft made. I really think the slate theme (with sidebar) is REALLY good looking and the other one is good, but not as pretty.

Windows X: I downloaded your MSN pack from your site, I like it thank you. And about the theme, sleep is more important then releasing it. YOur theme is my default theme (like I had said earlier) and I haven't seen many problems (I wouldn't know why this wasn't the full cause I love how it looks). Keep up your good work and take your time. I'm happy with the beta for now.

    • Popular Windows 11 file manager Files gets improved tags, layouts, and new OneDrive icon

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      If it ain't broke, don't fix it. One Commander Free also available in the Store has been my goto Files Manager for years. It does what I need at a more than reasonable speed. I do occasionally use Files Explorer just because it is there and does what I need without any problems when I use it.
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      By sphbecker · Posted

      I think you missed his point. He wasn't saying that cloud storage isn't possible on GNU/Linux, clearly it is. He was pointing out that you are commenting about your dislike of Windows on an article about OneDrive (not Windows) for Mac (also not Windows). Its about as off topic as coming to an article about Sony improving something on the PlayStation and saying that you hate Sony TVs and prefer LG.
    • Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Nvidia has a fresh update for GeForce NOW subscribers today, bringing in more games to add to its ever-growing supported titles list. At the same time, the company announced the kick-off for its summer sale for the streaming subscription service, dropping the prices for both its premium packages for anyone looking to upgrade or join. The offer is for the 12-month membership options that the company offers. This drops the 12-month Performance membership from $99.99 to $64.99, saving members $35. Next, the 12-month Ultimate membership is currently going for $129.99, dropping prices by $70 from the original $199.99. "The Performance membership delivers smooth, high-quality cloud gaming across devices, with streaming up to 1080p at 60 frames per second (fps) and access to RTX-powered servers for supported games," says Nvidia, describing its tiers. "The Ultimate membership steps things up with RTX 4080‑ or 5080‑class performance in the cloud, supporting up to 4K and beyond on ultrawide displays, up to 120 fps, and advanced features like ray tracing, NVIDIA DLSS and NVIDIA Reflex for a more responsive, visually rich experience." With the sales out of the way, here are the games joining GeForce NOW's supported list this week: NBA THE RUN (New release on Steam, available on June 9) Witchspire (New release on Steam, available on June 10) SpaceCraft (New release on Steam, available on June 11) Duet Night Abyss (Launcher) DOOM Eternal (Epic Games Store) The Elder Scrolls Online (Xbox, available on Game Pass) Farever (Steam) World of Tanks: HEAT (Wargaming) Nvidia plans to add support for a bunch of more games during the rest of June. Find the full announcement from last week over here. Keep in mind that, unlike subscription services like Game Pass or EA Play, a copy of a game must be owned by the GeForce NOW member (or at least have a license via PC Game Pass) to start playing via Nvidia's cloud servers. There is also a limit to how many hours subscribers can use the service per month.
    • Microsoft explains why PowerToys 0.100.0 is faster and slimmer, there are new features too

      It's actually shocking how logs filling disks has been a constant issue going back for decades, yet we see very little improvement over the years. Even in the server world, its actually shockingly common for a server to either go totally down, or have a critical alert raised due to logs filling disks.
    • YouTube has finally brought back its DMs feature, but only in these countries

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      YouTube has finally brought back its DMs feature, but only in these countries by David Uzondu Late last year, YouTube started testing a "new" way to share videos directly with friends, without having to leave the app. Now, the video giant has announced that is now rolling out a revamped direct messaging inbox, which lets you share videos, Shorts, and live streams and have conversations about them, directly on YouTube. The platform limits this feature to 18+ users who are signed in to a verified channel and use the latest mobile app version. Direct messaging on YouTube first became a thing back in 2017 inside the mobile app (later renamed to "Messages"), where users could chat one-on-one and share clips directly, but all that came to an end on September 18, 2019, when Google decided to shut it down after giving users a month to download a .zip file archive of their past chats. No one really knows why YouTube killed the feature, but users were encouraged to migrate to the public Comments section, on Community tab posts, and via YouTube Stories. The previous incarnation suffered from moderation challenges, prompting Google to implement stricter safety guidelines and age verifications for this new iteration. Here's a list of the countries where the re-launched feature is currently available, though note that Brand Accounts do not have access to it, at least for now: Countries American Samoa Austria Belgium Brazil Bulgaria Croatia Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Estonia Finland France Germany Greece Guam Hungary Iceland Ireland Italy Latvia Liechtenstein Lithuania Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Northern Mariana Islands Norway Poland Portugal Puerto Rico Romania Singapore Slovakia Slovenia Spain Sweden Switzerland U.S. Virgin Islands United Kingdom United States Before you can use the feature, you first have to send an invite link to your contact. Invite links expire exactly seven days after you create them. If the person on the other end accepts the invite, you can exchange videos directly and text back and forth inside the app. To delete a message, just long-press on the message and tap unsend to remove it for both users. You can also delete entire conversations by long-pressing the thread and selecting delete, but the other person will continue to see the chat history on their end. To make sure everything remains safe, YouTube monitors these messages to ensure they follow Community Guidelines.
