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.

      State of Decay 2, Blasphemous 2, and more join Xbox Free Play Days by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The latest Free Play Days offer has just kicked off, giving Xbox players the chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. The offerings this time aren't as massive as last weekend, but there are still major releases for Xbox players to jump into. This includes Undead Labs' post-apocalyptic title State of Decay 2, as well as two Team17-published titles. Two of the games being offered this time are available to all Xbox players without needing any kind of Game Pass subscription. In the fully free-to-play section, you can jump into State of Decay 2. The title is both an action survival title and a community builder, letting players choose a map, set up their base, and try to keep the growing zombie threat at bay. Cooperative play is available too. Don't forget that the studio is preparing a third entry for 2027. Next, Blasphemous 2 drops in for Metroidvania and Soulslike fans, where The Penitent One returns for another adventure. The title has tough combat with multiple weapon options, deadly traps to avoid, and platforming sequences requiring a lot of patience and timing. Keep in mind though that the offer does have a 5-hour time limit attached to it. Lastly, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can now try out the WWII-set first-person shooter Hell Let Loose. The multiplayer game offers 50 vs 50 combat in massive maps, with infantry, tank, and artillery options available for players. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: Hell Let Loose (Xbox Series X|S, PC) State of Decay 2: Juggernaut Edition (Xbox Series X|S, PC) Blasphemous 2 (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. The Free Play Days collection will show up in this area. This week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 11, at 11:59 pm PT.
