Everafter v3 Visual Style for Windows XP by WB Skinner

Hi folks!

The response to Everafter has been great so before I describe the package, I'd like to thank everyone who gave me constructive and helpful input.. at Neowin, Deviantart, Bfarber, and IOE. Thats what kept me going on this project when I was ready to scrap it.

Everafter is a bright and original skin, easy to use but still has a unique 'feel' about it. This release (next one is final) includes several noticable changes:

- New tray

- New taskband buttons

- New caption buttons (close, min, max, etc)

- New tabs

- New Glyphs

..as well as several minor changes to alot of parts.

Also v3 has 2 new colors for a total of 3:

Oluv : Olive

Skye : Blue

PB : Peanut Butter

All the colors have thier own shellstyles and a compact-menu option for a total of 6 variations. I've included 6 wallpapers, 2 for each color scheme (1280x1024 jpg)

The final version of Everafter (v4) will include 2 more colors, custom icons, a winamp classic skin, a rainlendar skin and a sysmetrix skin... if anyone is interested in adding anything else to that package, please contact me!

please note the icons I used in this screenshot are not included. They were done by one of the skinning greats: Chadamus ... from his H2so4 (olive square ones) and Indemnity (all the rest) projects.. get them here: chadamus

- Enjoy! :)

WB

I'm so glad I downloaded this and applied it cause the screenshot doesn't do it justice.

This theme is absolutely beautiful!

So much attention has been paid to detail, and you have obviously put many, many hours into this masterpiece.

I love the things like the unicorn on the taskbar tabs, the start menu detail, the plaque-like tab and toolbar buttons, the programs list in the start menu.

The scrollbars are beautiful and the tabs and toolbars are perfect.

The shellstyle is just omg, so nice and so original.

This is the best original visual style I have ever seen and you have done so much work WB Skinner.

I love this piece of art! thanks!

suicide ..yes I noticed the download does not work every once and awhile.. Try again in a few minutes.. seems to be hit-and-miss over at DA with my file.. I notified the DA staff about it. Unfortunately my own site is down for a couple days for a server upgrade and the file is too large to attach here (i think? - 1.3megs) Maybe I'll post it at bfarber.com and then update the thread..

Also Bmac, I'll probably post a better screenshot at DA shortly :)

    • Was it too much to ask to show the icon in this article?
    • Frankly, I blame whoever is writing such articles. "A big improvement/update and/or new feature is now available to everyone! Also, use this unofficial tweak tool to enable it because it actually isn't available to you yet officially and might not in fact even be entirely ready or whatever, hence why it is perhaps not enabled for you*. But it's great and you should enable it!" I mean there's nothing wrong with sharing info about some feature you might need to enable via unofficial means, of course. It's just that these articles tend to essentially end up being two news pieces in one, and one of them tends to be a bit misleading. (*Yes, yes, the "it's a controlled rollout!" thing. Not a fan of that one either. The argument, not the actual rollout.)
    • Thank you. Will do. I read in the release notes that editor config might be at play here.
    • Actually, I think even Microsoft doesn't know how to control it
    • OpenAI is making Codex more useful in Chrome and the cloud by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI's Codex now has more than 5 million users, up nearly 4x from earlier this year. To further accelerate Codex's growth among developers, OpenAI today announced that it has agreed to acquire Ona, a company that builds secure cloud execution and orchestration technology for developers. Ona will enable developers to run Codex with persistent and controlled cloud infrastructure for long-running agentic workflows. Right now, most Codex execution happens locally on developers' laptops and PCs, and the agents work continuously for hours. Through Ona, OpenAI aims to make Codex agents keep working for days without being tied to a user’s local machine or an active session. This will be an important capability for enterprises that want to deploy AI agents in production while maintaining control over infrastructure, data, security boundaries, credential scope, logging, and review workflows. Like any acquisition, the deal is still subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Until the deal closes, OpenAI and Ona will continue to operate as separate companies. After closing, Ona’s team will join the Codex team to improve developer workflows. Alongside the Ona acquisition announcement, OpenAI today introduced a few Codex updates. Developers can now save Codex rate limit resets and use them later instead of losing them when they are not needed immediately. OpenAI is also adding a referral option where users can invite a friend to Codex and get a saved rate limit reset. OpenAI today also announced a developer mode for browser use in Chrome and the Codex in-app browser. With this mode, Codex can use the Chrome DevTools Protocol to debug web apps, inspect pages, and work more directly with browser-based development workflows. Developers can use this when they want Codex to profile JavaScript, inspect console output and network traffic, examine web page states including the DOM and applied styles, and more.
