Damn, I can't get that Neowin Posting thing to work on my XP box or on my Win2K box. Both give me errors.

were did u get the bubble sweet icons??? the red grey ball icons and stuff

(the urls are pics that r on)

and any one know urls to sweet ass glass bubble icons?

-Thanks Aaron

Well if your talking about the nautilus sgv icons it's still missing two files that i didn't get a chance to convert but i've also upped them to tss2000's site now and i might redo the recicle bin and the folders to look more like the original, sorry about the vertical stretching :( my bad.

i resisted as long as i could!

1st time I saw the hacked classic style i thought jeez, that's ugly.

2nd time i thought, well, boring.

now i think it's cool. i hate that.

i think there are some bugs to be worked out still, but overall a good piece of work.

two suggestions, Kol, keeping in mind I have no idea about how you do this:

a subtle mouse-over effect for the open apps on the task bar the way you did for the quicklaunch icons;

and take a look at the menus (file, edit, etc.) for non-windows apps (photoshop, winrar, etc.), they have a white background which clashes with the soft grey. i can post a screenshot if you want.

otherwise, thanks for a style that really stands out.

    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
