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.

@ Memodude

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.

    • New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues by Taras Buria Another bug-fixing update is available for PowerToys version 0.100. After releasing version 0.100.1 with a bunch of bug fixes and patches, Microsoft pushed version 0.100.2 to address two important issues with one of Command Palette Dock's features. With PowerToys 0.100.2, Microsoft fixed the performance meter displaying incorrect values and memory leaks, which are particularly unwanted things in the current situation with overpriced PC hardware. Here is the changelog: Reverted a Performance Monitor dock refresh change that forced item refreshes on every metric update Fixed a memory leak in the Performance Monitor dock extension by reusing stable network upload/download band items instead of creating new list items on each refresh For those unfamiliar, Command Palette Dock is a relatively new addition to PowerToys. It is a taskbar-like tool that you can keep on top of the screen to pin various useful widgets, commands, and more. It can display time, weather, your PC's performance metrics, and more. Microsoft introduced the Command Palette Dock in March 2026 in PowerToys 0.98. Microsoft has dedicated documentation for Command Palette Dock, and you can check it out on the official Microsoft Learn website. You can update PowerToys to the latest version by going to Settings > General and clicking "Check for updates." Alternatively, you can download the installer from GitHub using this link. In other news, Microsoft is working on a new window-management utility for PowerToys. Called Alt Window Cycle, it will let you use the Alt + ` shortcut to switch between different windows in a single app. You can learn more about the tool here.
    • You did take leaf out of Trumps book already and had brexit - only to harm yourself. The same goes with this AI nonsense. The obvious solution for these companies is to move their head office to Brussels. I can see quite much irony there... 🙂

    • Wonder if they are trying to slow down Linux traction (not saying this is the only factor) in the consumer space. With the most pressure probably being steam deck/box, etc.
