:: vS :: AMPed viSUAL STYLE beta TWO


Recommended Posts

Start button and tray hiding button should use less space!!!;));)

And the leds in the taskbar... mmm could change it too;))

And besides that, I think that between the schemes the taskbar colors should change too, and just the titlebar and menu colors:cool:: :yes::

Very beautiful VS. Thanks you.

Request: can you put the LED inside the button? This will give the button more space to hold the text.

Bug report:

- Start, All programs: the width is way larger than the longest menu item.

- Blue color is used while green theme is active (see screenshot)

- Firebird: tabs has black on dark background.

thank you :)

i will try to fix those bugs... I allready fixed few, and made few nice changes to all the themes, to match the colors more.

Also If anyone can host the next release PM me. If not it will take extra day or two for me to get some space from my friend.

next release WILL have Compact Start Menu, 2 more color schemes(arctica and citrus) and of course (hopefully) all those bugs fixed.

[and yes i will make the tasktray button a bit smaller :)

^^ sweet :)

Have been wanting that kind of progress bar :)

Wonder if the light on the taskbar can be made a lil bit bigger and also changed to green on mouse over. Also, would be cool if a green ring can be put around the minimized program when mouse moves over it.

Have you per chance found someone to host the file from where the updates can be got?

Cheers

I can confirm the bug with Firebird. Seems to do that no matter what color scheme is used. Also I have noticed the text goes beyond the buttons in some areas.

All in all great theme. Keep up the good work.

quick question

DiEMOS: do you have any interest in porting this to WindowBlinds? ...i only say that because now i have been playing with the program and i found out there is so much you can do with it

if you even the SLIGHTEST interest in this... PM me, i will be here for most of the day and i would like to run a few ideas off of you

Is an update out anywhere? I mean, I saw new screenies and all. I also saw it mentioned by DiEMOS that an update was ready and just some space is required!

Also, just one small lil question... Why is it almost 6+MB? Are most .msstyles that big? Sorry, this is just my 2nd theme in use (first being XPAmp).

Cheers

update is coming along well almost done... maybe tomorrow...

tray button has been changed... and all the color schemes have been tweaked.

I will also include 'xperiment' scheme... its kind of like AMPextra... for the minimalists ;)

now the problems: i don't think its possible to turn off hover color from log off buttons(if anyone knows how, reply).... and firebird problem... i have no idea how to fix it...and uhmm buttons....buttons...buttons.... I still can't get it right... i dont know if its even possible to fix... on most screens they work fine.

    • Still 3x what it should cost. So, it seems the trick is to increase price by 6x so that a reduction in price back to 4x looks like a steal. "You savvy shoppers win again!" I'm glad I'm not in a desperate spot to actually even need this overpriced crap. Hopefully, it comes back down by the time for when (or if) I ever do.
    • Although AI is great and has it's use cases they likely have massively overhyped it and it has not delivered as per their expectations. I fully expect them to start saying the same things again when it does get to a certain level of intelligence!
    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
