Hey! Xeon Inc. took my suggestion! See? Here! * Makes happy thrilled noises! *

The reason he has done this I'm certain is because (among other things), he wants to take 4.0 into a different, new direction. VX 3.3 is already a firm favourite, and many people will still continue to use it, I am sure! For now, 3.3 fits my "mood" more. Thanks for finally releasing it regardless! It rocks in its own right!

Opinions:

1) Still a very clean, very nice theme, and I like the Luna VX protrusion in the start menu, not used to the green bits yet, but I'll try.

2) I'll have to get used to the new Min, Max, Close buttons, again, not used to the green bits.

3) I love how your menu selection as you scroll up and down fades from left to right <- that is my favoutite, FAVOURITE bit so far! (someone tell me the correct term for when you scroll up and down the All Programs menu?)

4) Oh - the Start menu button seems to have gotten "fat/wider" <- is this the size you'll let it remain at from now on? I prefer the less fat ones...

5) I'm not able to see the blue arrow behind the green arrow in the Start button very clearly at all. Oh - I oughta mention that I absolutely adore this Start button here, actually I like everything in this pic (if it ever got released, I'd be over the moon):

I have from the start been using Vx, and i was allso looking forward to this release, Hell, im using VX4 right now.

But Ads the other says, i dont like the min,max and close buttoms, PLz but the old one back.

and the wallpaper, can we not get it in a descent reselution? I mean 1024*768 that is not enogh anymore, im running 1600*1200 so plz make it BIGGER.

That was all for now!

Some comments - the new Start button is superb and tray icons are much better, but an indicator of its state would be much better. However, I much prefer the old Start Menu and the Minimise / Maximise buttons.

Don't let all this talk discourage you though :) Its still a great piece of work!

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
