Why do you apply themes to your Windows XP machine? The default theme works also.

To answer both questions: We apply this program to change the way our clock looks because 1) we can and 2) we like the look better then the old look. I have put stickers all over my computer case and it doesn't make it perform any better but it helps personalize it.

And for the themes it's the same way. The Longhorn Systray clock is just a theme for your clock really. Like changing the theme on your desktop or changing your wallpeper. It's not useless. It's art.

I guess you could waste your time typing all that. Or, you could just say STFU LURKER. ;)

Cyranthus, you must have one bland desktop.

For the people that wants to help me test the latest LClock:

1.30a July 27, 2004

- Simple popup calendar.

- Interface change for control panel tool.

If you find any new bug in 1.30a, please PM me and not post here. Thank you!

LC130a.zip

ops...please download again if you downloaded it before Jul 27 2004, 16:40 or around the time of Savagearth's post.

w00t :) nice nice... but it would be better if we can actually skin it :p

Skin is planned. Maybe LClock will just use rainlendar skins. ;)

But right now I just want to get some feedback on the calendar feature. And maybe try out appointment, alarm features...see what everybody thinks first. :D

    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
    • I have been using Firefox for years.
    • I'd trust open source stuff on github more then closed source binaries from Microsoft.
