I have released this at Deviantart.

the Style includes three taskbar choices:

White Flag(Aero1)

Aero Flag(Coloured buttons in start panel)

Plex Flag

The Shellstyle included with this release was made by WindowsX and i take no credit for the creation(i only modified the colours to suit the theme)

That is Windows X's theme with a few mods. That is Windows X's shellstyle.

1. Windows X's shellstyle

2. Windows X's start menu (with mods)

3. Your own taskbar

4. Your own IE/Explorer background

5. Your own title bars

Overall looks like a great theme, though you should credit Windows X for the shellstyle and start menu inspiration. I know those are from Windows X because most of the start menu look and shellstyle look was Windows X's own thing, not so much from the real OS.

Start button is completely wrong.

See here: http://www.winsupersite.com/images/reviews...lel_aero_11.jpg

it's dark grey with a black grey rectangular border.

Also the taskbar has a small bevel to it. Look into that. Do it like this:

I have the raw form of that start button (it was a PNG resource in the slate.msstyles in 4051, must have left some Aero in it):

The bevel was from Windows X's theme but I like your example on the right. Very nice looking.

P.S. memodude is right about the start button.

None, I repeat NONE of the Visual Style is WindowsX. You are right about the shellstyle, however that is not being released. In fact i am getting so sick of people accusing me of ripping his work that i don't even know why i bother posting. Everyone else posts constructive comments both bad and good but accusing me of ripping is just plain ignorant. If you suspected that it was a rip, PM me and we could have worked out the problem without having to tarnish my work before people get a chance to use it. Also you do nothing but spam these boards with "bump" and other useless posts when if you really wanted to contribute to these forums you would take on your own projects.

@everyone Else

Thank you for the support and comments.

I'm sorry. :( Anyway, sounds like a great theme! Will that start button I posted be of use? :D

I'm not spamming, I was just posting "bump" a couple times because the thread was sinking and I thought it might be forgotten. :p

Sorry, my last post has reached the time limit for editing.

I'm really sorry about the "that's Windows X's" thing. I didn't really understand. :(

I do have my own projects, I'm a programmer. I'm working on my own imitation of the Longhorn version of IE and a sidebar. I also write a volunteer check-in/out program for my school and am going to do a computer science entry in a local science fair. I also have my homework (I'm in middle school). I'm actually kind of busy. :p

After ended Slate case, then you did this again... Oh man, full stop. You make me sick again ANDYLOGO. Please stop modding my works and ideas and transform to yours. I'm the author of all of this idea. I know where the hell you copied me again. From the screenshot, first rip is logofff buttons. I remember that size is my resized from OldeCrow logoff (My previous logoff is not match to Aero so I asked him to use his one.) Logoff Panel background also mine. I add plus line to suite it better and there's no different when I use my theme and compare to screenshot. Even Turn Off trick is mine and OldeCrow too. And last, white addition of taskbar and toolbar is my first creation and I'm the only one who made it. You ripped my idea again. Please man. Please stop this cheating. I believe everyone also think like what i wrote. Grow up, man. Do your best with your own.

@ WindowsX

Firstly, the white taskbar idea is from Keynote, not your creation. I also didn't even know you had a keynote version(do you?), if you do i'm sure this one is not like it as i don't like the thick taskbar from keynote(i also didn't like the window flag in the start panel or the coloured startbutton). Why don't you post your version and we can see which one people like better and see how the themes are different then we can put all of our resources out there for people to scrutinize. You really need to grow up, you're starting to sound like a complaining 5yr old.

Cheers

Stop lying yourself. God dang it! Said never know my work? So how can you get my shellstyle? I release that theme in my transformation pack. Go and see it. I even post that shot too in keynote thread. I can't see full taskbar so you may right. But why don't you clear the rest of all up? About my other compliments. I think ppl won't like seeing these stupid post but you drove me mad now. I ever forgive you about Slate in last night and then you started this sucking again. Tell me, ANDYLOGO. How can your prove yourself about other compliments that you make it all yourself? I won't forgive your this time.

    • JBL BAR 800 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos soundbar is an amazing deal today

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      JBL BAR 800 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos soundbar is an amazing deal today by Sayan Sen This Amazon Prime Day 2026 sales so far we have had a couple of nice deals related to sound and audio. First we have the Sennheiser HD 600 at its lowest ever price of just $225. Next we also have the Beats Studio Pro at its lowest price ever at just $150. However perhaps you prefer your gear to sound great on a larger scale, like throughout the room. In that case an all-in-one soundbar system can help and currently JBL's BAR 800 is a great deal for sure as it's up for grabs at just $600 (purchase link under the specs table down below). One thing that should be appreciated a lot about these JBL soundbars is their spec sheet and the frequency response data it provides. The firm is honest about it as JBL confirms the subwoofer is able to go down to 35 Hz at -6dB or F6. This means it should be covering 40Hz and up very well, where most of the bass lies. You miss out on a lot of sub-bass but that is to be expected given the price point and the subwoofer driver size. Speaking of which, it is a 10-inch driver and promises a max output power of 300 watts at 1% THD (total harmonic distortion). JBL also claims the system will provide you with a "True Dolby Atmos" experience. The surround speakers are wireless and battery-powered which means setting them up should be really convenient. The technical specs of the JBL BAR 800 are given in the table below: Specification Value Channel Configuration 5.1.2-channel soundbar system Dolby Atmos Yes, with 2 up-firing drivers Total System Power Output 720 W Soundbar Power Output 340 W Surround Speaker Power Output 2 × 40 W Subwoofer Power Output 300 W Soundbar Drivers 3 × 46×90 mm racetrack drivers, 3 × 20 mm tweeters, 2 × 70 mm up-firing full-range drivers Surround Speaker Drivers 1 × 46×90 mm racetrack driver (each speaker) Subwoofer Driver 10-inch (260 mm) wireless subwoofer Frequency Response 35 Hz – 20 kHz (-6 dB) Audio Inputs Optical, Bluetooth, Chromecast built-in, AirPlay, Alexa Multi-Room Music (MRM), USB* HDMI Inputs 1 HDMI video input HDMI Output 1 HDMI eARC output HDCP Version 2.3 HDR Pass-Through HDR10, Dolby Vision Bluetooth Version 5.0 Wi-Fi Version 6, 6E Streaming Services Chromecast built-in, Apple AirPlay, Alexa MRM Get it at the link below: JBL Bar 800-5.1.2-Channel Dolby Atmos soundbar with Detachable Surround Speakers (Black): $599.85 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US with Prime) Prime subscription can be cancelled within three business days.

    • Microsoft releases PowerToys v0.100.1, fixes a bug that made remapped keys misbehave

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Microsoft releases PowerToys v0.100.1, fixes a bug that made remapped keys misbehave by Ivan Jenic Microsoft just released PowerToys v0.100.1, a patch update that addresses several stability and behavior issues found in v0.100.0. The v0.100.0 patch was a significant update for PowerToys, as it introduced all sorts of new features and additions, such as a rebuilt Shortcut Guide, a Command Palette Extension Gallery, webcam overlay support in ZoomIt, and more. However, the v0.100.0 version also introduced some bugs and stability issues. And now, Microsoft is addressing these issues in the new patch. The most impactful fix in this release perhaps is in Keyboard Manager, where remapped modifier keys were being delivered as system-key events, causing unexpected behavior in apps. The clearest example of this was Alt-to-Backspace remaps, deleting whole words instead of a single character. So, if you thought there was an issue with your keyboard, Microsoft just confirmed that it was PowerToys. Beyond the Keyboard Manager fix, v0.100.1 also addresses several other issues. It fixes a bug with Power Display that was preventing monitors from waking from standby correctly. Additionally, the new update patches Quick Access crashes on launch, and resolves a Shortcut Guide crash that occurred when switching between sidebar sections. Here’s the full changelog: Color Picker Fixed a bug where the main Color Picker window could appear inside the zoomed-in picker view Command Palette Fixed Run history initialization in AOT builds Fixed a bug where the Performance Monitor dock item could show ??? after restart Fixed the Hibernate command using the Sleep icon Limited the "pin to dock" dialog to displays where the dock is enabled Keyboard Manager Fixed modifier keys remapped to non-modifier keys being delivered as system-key events, which caused unexpected behavior in apps such as Alt-to-Backspace deleting whole words Power Display Fixed a bug where selecting On in the monitor power-state control did not wake a monitor from standby Fixed built-in display detection and brightness control on dual-GPU laptops where the internal panel is driven by the discrete GPU PowerToys Run Fixed VS Code Workspaces discovery after VS Code moved recently opened workspace data to shared storage Quick Access Fixed Quick Access flyout crashes caused by unhandled XAML exceptions during launch or page navigation Shortcut Guide Fixed a crash when navigating between Shortcut Guide sidebar sections Fixed number-key rendering in shortcut manifests and added a Postman shortcut manifest Updated bundled shortcut manifests to use the literal number-key token so number keys render correctly across apps ZoomIt Fixed a race condition in audio initialization for ZoomIt video recording You can download PowerToys v0.100.1 from the official GitHub releases page.
