I think it would be cool if aero could have transistions of colour, best would be changing colour and stuff depending on day and night and weather.

background could change state ie, a tree growing, a bon fire start to end, sky and clouds moving, the sea

What would be really cool (and I've thought about how to implement this), is have a wallpaper like a tree, and green grass, sky, etc.

And then have that environment mimic the environment outside. Say its 2:45PM, then the scene in the wall should look sunny, but through the evening, you can see the sky darkening, the sun setting, and eventually you have a tree in the dark, with stars, maybe the moon...

And have seasons change too. In August, the leaves should start changing color, etc. Winter, have snow...

That would be really cool.

No, that's not my point. I'm pointing about how could we render imagined Aero through some tools such as Photoshop or something. I'm not great about mocking up much so I decided to resample Aero resources into one of my theme to render parts I need. You'll see there's just Explorer dialog because I didn't make it in other parts. So let's join idea about this unless there's no point to do.

So Aero shall be something that can inspire our desktop for eye candy and useful stuffs...But I think there must be something we don't know about. Maybe putting the world into PC and spend to rest of life drinking coffee and watch moniter...lol

No. I think he wanted people to post mockups of what people think Aero should look like, which I don't understand, because shouldn't we just wait until MS releases it? That's how it's going to look and how we 'think' it should look is utterly irrelevent to the final design. I thinkt his thread will from here on out be used for Windows X to showcase his Longhorn crap while other users bitch about it until the thread is closed or falls into the obscurity known as page 2, until Windows X revives it.

:p

Been done. My aunt's old Sony Vaio laptop from long ago automatically change according to the time. For example, in the morning it'd be the sunrise, then in the afternoon it would be sunny, then at sunset it'd become red, and at night it was starry.

For me the best Aero theme was (because project terminated?) the photoshop creation? by DigitalFreedom.

I think is the best !

This one

Looks nice:):) From what I've seen in this thread, Aero should be something else more than theme. In other word, theme is one of Aero. I think Longhorn could be the best OS ever when it's released and so o:D:D

btw, I don't understand why people want to start bitching. I just want to know how Aero is from everyone's opinions. I think someone in here should discover book buddha religion. That's the best book to redeem ppl's mind (Since The Matrix use these concepts for their movies)

Right, I'm going to adopt a religion because it was used in the Matrix.

Anyways, I still don't see the point. What I'm trying to say is Aero will be what Microsoft makes it, anything proposed in this thread will ultimately not be used in the final product, so why act like it will be otherwise?

Try Longhorn Aero (Plex UI) from Longhorn Transformation Pack 6. But no trans and modding like that...hehe We can't do it anyway. Just similar possibilities for fun.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes

      Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.

      Dead by Daylight, Two Point Museum, and more join Xbox Free Play Days for the weekend by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe There is a brand-new Free Play Days offer available to Xbox players, giving them a chance to try out a new selection of games over the weekend. Microsoft's latest promotion brings some high-profile titles, including the sports title PGA TOUR 2K25 and the racing sim Assetto Corsa. Almost all the games being offered this time require an Xbox Game Pass subscription, with only one title being available for all players. Starting with the fully free-to-play section, Dead by Daylight is populating it solo. This asymmetric survival horror title should be the most familiar to most gamers, considering its age. The multiplayer four-versus-one asymmetric survival horror game has you assuming the roles of survivors or the killer to see who can come out on top. This Dead by Daylight offer will be available to play until Monday, June 22, giving you an extra day of play compared to the remainder of the Free Play Days titles. Meanwhile, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, Premium, and Essential members can now try out the well-received tycoon game Two Point Museum, the circuit racing sim Assetto Corsa, as well as 2K's golf sim experience that gives players a career to develop alongside real-world pros and courses. Here are the announced games and the platforms they are available to play on: PGA TOUR 2K25 (Xbox Series X|S) Two Point Museum (Xbox Series X|S) Assetto Corsa (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) Dead by Daylight (Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One) To easily find the titles on Xbox consoles, first head to the Store, and then in the sidebar, find the Home section. In there, open the Subscriptions tab. All the games from the Free Play Days collection will show up in this section for quick access. Apart from Dead by Daylight's offer, this week's Free Play Days promotions will end on Sunday, June 21, at 11:59 pm PT.
