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.

I started this work about 12:00 AM by downloading PDC's resources from my crew. Finished at 6:45 PM Here's Slate. Too bad that my Dang ISP won't let me upload data more than one packet (just let me upload few texts) so I can't post this to you before mid-night.

I have some problem about using ImageCount for ToolBar Background which is not possible for my skills or it's impossible. So it ended up like this.

Now it was done from your request. With my Mistic Blue version.

I also add registry file to make toolbar looks like Aero Toolbar. They're

-activate.reg (Makes toolbar to real Aero style. Still buggy when resizing)

-activate_pdc.reg (Makes toolbar to alternate Aero style. Also solve resizing bug)

-deactivate.reg (Makes toolbar to original XP style. Also resizing buggy as it being)

Last update 01/11/2003

Version 3.0

-Fixed frame border problem

-Moved Shellstyle to left side in Slate PDC

-Updated CaptionButton (no background button)

After I've added Avalon graphics in Aero and looks great with it, now I tried on Slate part and end up like this. This is a bit far from Slate (Original work) so should I make Slate 4.0 like this?

Very nice WindowsX....I like the new max/min buttons......please keep them. However, I like the shellstyle of v.3.0 better as it is on the side and better for xp IMHO.

Not to hound you cause I know a bunch o' people ask all the time, but when will this new version be ready for d/l?

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By ikjadoon · Posted

      I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.

      It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?

      Why should simply opening the Action Center ... require any significant amount of CPU cycles? Too many are ignoring the elephant in the room: today's CPUs may have similar clock frequencies to CPUs from a decade ago (~4 to 5 GHz), but they run with far higher performance per clock, even on the smallest E-cores. The Action Center is a static, minor desktop element. It ought to open instantly on any CPU made in the past 2.5 decades at even low clocks. Opening a program? Boost away. Unzipping a file? Boost to your heart's content. Right-clicking the notification area? This should be an ultra-efficient, low-impact event that opens instantly. Compare today's UI elements to Windows 7 UI elements. Today's UI elements hardly do anything more substantial or important or critical, yet now require modern-day processors to jump half a GHz to reduce their latency.

      This is not an option lmao: it is part of the KB5094126 update, pushed to all users. There is no GUI to configure it. Reading the article should be required for commenting.
