not that i care :) but stevo make PopCorn and BitterLemon. They look quite nice on desktop, i know ;)

also i have not showed it to public but i made XP colors(Blue, Silver, Olive) for my theme, do the same thing for Xp AMP, i think people will enjoy that and perhaps release that as a seperate addon or whatever. If you need the colors, use ColorChanger of winamp( you can get it in winamp forums.)

ps. congrats on 600 posts in this thread. ;)

we were thinking about doing popcorn, but we are at 8 colors now. and i think only 8 colors will fit into a single msstyle.

as for the xp colors, that's a pretty good idea. i would do it if i had more time to work on visual styles, but this week and next i have tons of other things to do.

if i get a chance to mess around with it i may give it a try, but i doubt it.

n00dle was gonna have bitter lemon done a long time ago. but he said he's really busy so i have no idea if or when that will get done.

Opinion on that City Night screenshot: the taskbar gray should be darker to emphasize the yellow, and the buttons should be brighter (like the skin). Or maybe an inverse would look good too (light gray for the taskbar, dark gray with yellow text for the buttons) ;)

well i haven't talked to n00dle lately about XPAmp at all. i have no idea when he will get working on bitter lemon, and because of that i decided to release 1 more color in a seperate file for now.

as we have more colors finished they will be all included in 1 file, but for those of you who would like to try out the new color (some portions may be changed) here you go...

    • Alpine Linux 3.24 released with support for COSMIC Desktop and other improvements by David Uzondu Alpine Linux 3.24 has been released with updated system packages, including Linux kernel 6.18 and Rust 1.96. The team also added IPv6 support to the system installer, and they introduced automatic serial console configuration for headless setups. System76's COSMIC desktop environment is now available in the community repo. System76 originally started building this DE because its developers found GNOME to be pretty limited. Plus, it did not help that with virtually every GNOME update, the changes broke System76's custom desktop extensions. As for system packages, the Alpine team moved GTK+ 3.0 from the main repository to the community repository due to its legacy status. py3-setuptools has been upgraded to version 82.0.0, while the old pkg_resources module has been completely dropped. The team also removed outdated packages that still relied on py3-six and GTK+ 2.0. In addition to that, libsoup 2 has been removed because the library was affected by multiple security vulnerabilities. If you're a GRUB user, the Alpine Team said that you must manually run the grub-install command with your specific device or EFI options right after upgrading your system, otherwise, your computer may fail to boot properly with the newly updated GRUB 2.14 bootloader. New installations of Alpine Linux now offer an optional path to a /usr-merged directory layout if you set the BOOTSTRAP_USR_MERGED environment variable to 1 before you execute the setup-disk command. If you already run an older installation, you can migrate manually by installing the merge-usr package and executing its binary as the root user. The team recommends this layout to align Alpine with modern Linux standards, though you should verify your custom scripts before making the switch. Alpine Linux is a pretty tiny (~5MB) Linux distro built around musl libc, BusyBox, and OpenRC. It's been around since 2005, comes with its own package manager called Alpine Package Keeper (APK), and is widely used in modern cloud computing and software deployment.
