Opus Apollo v1.2

Designed to be unobtrusive and useable, yet pleasing to the eye and individual (that rhymes!).

Contains

- 2 colour variations, Apollo (grey) and Coffee.

- Each colour variation contains:

- Normal and Compact start panels

- Normal and Thin taskbars

- Giants Collide wallpaper (they go together perfectly, please try them).

- VERY fast UI, highly optimised code.

Important Notes

The end tab on the Display Properties box is not a bug, its Windows being stupid. All other tabs are fine.

A shellstyle is on its way.

Yz Shadow is used to create the window shadows in the screenshot.

Updates (1.1 -> 1.2)

Added Compact Start panel versions

Added Normal Taskbar versions

Smaller status bar w/3D text

Large and E.Large start button bug fixed

All programs arrow aligned with text

Added tab mouseovers, made selected tab brighter

Inactive titlebars now slightly darker

Enhanced all mouseover widgets (more 3D)

Ah...no biggie I just won't use fonts other than normal.

Great job!!

I have a quick question though. I've been using WatercolorLite for about a year now, because all of the new styles that come out (which I actually like, like this one) are all thin-taskbar - they look terrible with WMP9's taskbar control. It's probably rude to ask you for a standard sized taskbar, so could you possibly point me in the right direction for getting it doen myself? I've never been able to make a thin-taskbar theme full-size, and I'd really like to with this theme, because it looks great!!

:blush:

Anyway, good job!!!

OK, something like this. Is this possible?

Top: current version

Bottom: the way I want to make it look. How do I do this?

that's the problem i had mavis .. unlock your taskbar, then move it .. to say the side of the screen, then put it back on top or bottom and your problem should be solved

    • I would recommend the Nothing 2a. The battery life is awesome, 2 or 3 days without going into battery power mode. The only thing that I've been looking into recently is that it doesn't "support" Graphene OS. I'm pretty sure there is a way, I just need to do some more looking.
    • You'd have to show me an example of a listing that says Gen 1, usually i'd expect that to mean Snapdragon Gen 1 (a type of chipset, which the Pixels don't use). Pixel 7 - White - 128gb - Unlocked - 85%+ battery - Grade B+ - $159 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/398046617206 Pixel 7 - Obsidian - 128gb - Unlocked - 80%+ battery - Very Good - $157 with free delivery - https://www.ebay.com/itm/355617734563 Both look to be sold by companies with good feedback, dealing with refurbished phones and state the phones are unlocked with a clean IMEI. Obviously I can't vouch for either company though, but the listings look good in my opinion.
    • Because Chrome is doing it. And no one said anyone had to update immediately. That's silly. They could update every day for all I care as long as it's fast, and the next time the browser restarts, you're good. And the basic point is not to tee it up for bigger updates. As it is right now, all the windows I had open reopen anyway except inprivate.
    • Why? Does anybody actually want this? The constant need to close all browser sessions and wait for a new version to install, just so that there’s a integrated coupon manager feels like a waste of everyone’s time
    • I remember when Louis used to just do interesting Mac/iPhone repairs, now he's boring and just launches "crusades" every week
