Suicide, I am trying to fix the bugs. I think I remember that you wanted the fonts fixed, and that is the next thing on my list before I will try to release.

I IMed contra when I first restarted work and asked him if he was still working on PlastikXP.

His response: "no, not at all". So I think i'm the one mainly working on the theme now, although anyone is welcome to help, and anyone who has posted feedback here already has :).

As for the links being down... a couple people have asked about that. They seem to be and should still be up. I guess just try again, and if that doesn't work I don't know.

And about the WinRAR bug... is anyone still experiencing it? I downloaded the WinRAR trial today and found that dialogue, but it looked fine to me. Can someone verify this bug and tell me how to reproduce it?

And I was thinking about the green/teal styles... I personally don't use either, but even if I did they are so similar it seems silly to have them both. What does everyone else think?

I wouldn't miss it.

I think you should move this discussion to Works In Progress, might get more participation there.

About that start button, the one COrwin made looks blurry. I'm not saying use mine, but if that one is going to be final it should be sharper than that?

Anyway, thanks for all your work on this theme.

Whoops, just noticed that my link to the WIP topic highlights the term "plastikxp", probably because I had to do a search for the topic. I can't edit my previous post, so This Link should be the same one without the highlighting.

The link isn't down, try again, I'll mail it to you if you still can't get it. But it would be good if someone with a Deviantart account would mirror it there so that it definitely won't go down. Just give credit to Contra and Thresher and make sure it's clear that it's open-sourced if you do.

Screenshots are in the "work in progress" thread.

Found some mock-ups but nothing that says "this is it" or anything...

Ok here's one of those "this is it" screenshots...

There are seven color variations, but black has a bug with one of the taskbar buttons.

Contra's original (buggy) version contains the shellstyles and fonts (Vera):

Hello Suicide. I'd like to see this completely fixed too. I'm just wondering what bugs are left in this theme. I'm not saying they're not there--I'm almost positive there are some left--just wanting to get some specifics on what needs doing.

And to all the people who are having problems with dling this theme, I'll try to get Contra to put the most recent version on DeviantArt once everyone seems satisfied with it. In the meantime if you can't download it from the link to my site (which I think has been posted several times), just email me and I'd be happy to send it to you.

      I have disabled it, but the app is still taking space. I have a Mac and it is only possible to disable Ai on that, but I think that bit does get rid of the AI components after a while. What we are told is that we agree to all this when we use the devices as it is in the end user agreements, their software, they can do what they like. I doubt that any bill will happen in the U.S, the government there are in league with big tech firms. The E.U maybe, they seem to have some guts when it comes to tech companies. The U.K is not in the E.U, but some things still affect us. Our government is as gutless when it comes to tech companies as the U.s government.
