Sooo I'm back from a week vacation to Barcelona, Spain and it's still not released. Why don't we just call it a day and forget this vs?

are people incapable of waiting? he's clearly busy with other stuff as well, so how about being patient for a change? things take time to be done

he's saying for more than a week now that he'll be releasing his theme "later this evening", and that his theme is ready for a beta release. So maybe you should know more about the history of this thread.

:laugh: lol I totally agree...

if you can't wait anyway, why don't you go and make it yourself? even if it is "vaporware" you don't know it for a fact, having to put up with all of us is probably not helping

yeah, we don't know if it exsists, but to give up hope if to give up on life.... (err has nothing to do with this but oh well :p off topic)

besides, why are you here if you don't think it's real? there's no point in staying

i'd rather have something that's made perfect for the amount of time it took instead of having something rushed and semi-finished

I agree on that too... I find no point in getting somethings that's cheap. It like going to the store. Would you rather pay more for something that'll last, or get something cheap that breaks and you have to keep buying.

Even though we aren't buying this ($$$) it's still roughly the same thing.

in this situation it'd be more considering the bugs. if you do it in a rush, there's more change of more bugs. if you do it slow and take the time, it'll end up wifh a better and more efficient finished product instead of something with however many bugs to be fixed

The point is, if you arent going to release it, say you arent instead of constantly making new dates and not saying anything for a week. The same thing happened with Watercolor and everyone thought it was vaporware but it ended up being one of the best themes when it finally came out. It's just better not to be a jackass and leave people hanging. It makes it look like he just wants the attention and people begging for it to boost his ego.

I know DigitalFreedom very well and he is a very busy guy. Lay off him, we are both working on AeroBrowser and other work related things. If he can't make the deadline then he can't. Just wait, when he can, he will release it. I know that he has done alot of work on it and on aerobrowser so give him a chance.

we already have 2 or 3 deadlines. 1. later this week, 2. this evening, 3. in 4 hours.

the theme is great, but the behaviour sucks. say yes or say no, but not yes for several times and then virtually die for a week or another. but like I said, at some point, it doesn't matter anymore. we are all humans, and humanity is heavily marked by it's impatience.

why say he'll release it later this evening if he wasn't ready to release it? :unsure: I agree he may be busy and his life doesn't revolve around making a few people on the net happy by releasing a great looking vs, but he simply could have said "it'll be ready when it's ready" instead of "I'll release it this evening" :rolleyes:

yup :D

Just stop saying that it will be released on a certain day if you're not sure that you can. And let be honest the whole start of this thread was vague, with all those transparant parts and stuff. After a week or so we found out via an other thread what the real theme looked like (I did at least).

But I'll stop with what some of you call bitching, and I'll just wait until it's ready.

One note to the autor of this theme: Give a release date if you're 99% sure that you can make it that day.

And it's still a kick-ass theme! :woot:

    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Microsoft about to radically change how often your Edge browser updates

      By testman · Posted

      Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
