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)

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

    • Wow, spoken like a true blind hater, you don't even provide arguments. Please, go check my comment above to @seacaptain and you'll find out why what you say doesn't make sense in this context...
    • Get used to this, with AI tooling now uncovering new vulns and getting them exploitable far faster than has ever been possible before software is going to need to be updated far more frequently. Back in the day it may take reseachers weeks or months to do what AI can now do in hours. Once its a threat is discovered it's weaponsized far more quickly, meaning you simply can't be waiting 2, 3, 4 weeks to deploy a patch, it needs to be patched immediately. Going to be interesting handling this in the enterprise space where traditionally patching has been steady, but very staged (and rightly so up until now), that is going to have to change.
    • You don't need to "close all browser sessions constantly" or wait for updates to install. The updates download in the background while you use the browser, without interrupting you, they install automatically the next time you launch the app. And they install very fast (depending on your storage speeds, of course), you have to wait at most 2-3 extra seconds, if any. Seems like you haven't used Edge in a loooooooong time...
