But how could we make real thing from mock up? Glass transparency is not possible atm. btw, I wanna see DF's work in psd :)

Yes because you want to rip his graphics out and make another theme and claim it was ALL yours and then go rant to others how they've riped you.

Stop that hell flaming, knight. That's useless garbage to do. If you don't stop that sh*t, I'll report admin to give you a present. You never get what I was trying to tell you. It seems like all of my explaination is retard for likes of you (Or real retard is not my post because someone get it and clear)... About DF's work, I just want to know how could he make almost real Aero transparency. It really looks like original. And I'll ask him myself if I want to make theme for ppl who want and also him of he allow me to.

The adjective "pretentious" has 4 senses in WordNet

1. WindowsX

2. pretentious (vs. unpretentious) -- (making claim to or creating an appearance of (often undeserved) importance or distinction; "a pretentious country house"; "a pretentious fraud"; "a pretentious scholarly edition")

3. ostentatious (vs. unostentatious), pretentious -- (intended to attract notice and impress others; "an ostentatious sable coat")

4. ostentatious, pretentious, kitsch -- (of a display that is tawdry or vulgar)

I get annoyed too but it's not me who started this mess. I just want to make thread to know what ppl think about Aero and then some of guys like that come to flame me about Longhorn. I wonder why they did something like that too. I can't find any reason and then I get mad, crazy, insane, etc.

Dear flamer, what do you want from me for posting that sh*t? Tell me and I'll do it for you if I can. I'm tired of this and I wanna leave it!!!

this (someone needs to make this exact thing for the 4074 build)

or this (well i know its not possible bit as close to it as can be done (most of the time you do a good job windowsX :D ))

p.s. sorry for the large image

WOOT! :woot: That looks awesome (I mean second one) I think I can make close port for first one as new Aero Slate theme in Longhorn Aero. Second one will be nwe theme using name of this thread when it's done. Maybe "Aero UI"

^that looks just like regular 74 slate with inspiriat caption buttons.

I think that one looks bright than Slate (Well, good for other ppl's taste who like brighter Slate) Cpationbar from shot came before Inspriat but I think stefanka's one looks cooler IMO although I don't like button pic into captionbar background.

Hey WindowsX, you're a master of skinning :p

you can easily do that I think

that looks awesome

i also like you're second mock

Thank you :) Just stuffs from Longhorn's fan to another Longhorn's fan. btw, we need to accept about captionbar button in Aero. It looks suck in artistic way. We need a new type of it but I don't have any idea about it right now :blush:

Im working with a version of that :)

everything looks really nice but Im having problems with the glyphs :(

Edited by KoL

I spend a little time fooling around in fireworks MX for this.

Ive based my mockup on: http://www.winsupersite.com/images/reviews..._keynote_01.jpg

and

http://www.winsupersite.com/images/reviews..._keynote_02.jpg

Both very blurred and stuff. So ive tried to recreate as much as i can, i also noticed some of the images taken show a frosted glass effect on the title bars that distort the items behind it, ive also tried to recreate that.

Ok here goes;

I don't like so much this buttoms

but maybe redifining them would take out the longhorn look like type

it should be difficult for people who uses mora than 1024x768 to hit that buttoms

or maybe it could be moved downside

well it is just ideas im thinking

:p

So what should we do? Make larger button?

KoL, use glyphs from Jade and desaturate it. I'm working on this one too and looks far finished. Hope members won't flame me if I release it after KoL (About September).

Wow! Nice mock up :) Can you share us psd file to find possible way to make VS? It's OK if you don't want to share it.

the problem was with the position, but after a lot of hours I finally got them in the right position. I just need to move the close glyph 1 pixel up.

heres a screenshot

Looks nice :) I like your shellstyle. It would be great if you could make caption pic to whole group (Hope you'll get what I mean) I need to try mocking my Aero prototype to find way making it well for my further Longhorn works. Here's what I've done so far for Aero UI (Hope large text and caption bar will solve problem for ppl who use higher resolution and large text looks close to real Aero anyway)

    • But the reality is it will work for people's needs, and they don't care about the technology that makes it. Clearly not everyone's needs, but that low end space where personal laptops were only used to type emails, watch content and browse websites, but they didn't want to do that on a small screen device. Heck, writing that out I can now see the connection and reason it'll do so well. Apple is about experience. If the experience is bad, they don't release it. Low end Windows laptop manufacturers up until this point have not taken that into consideration ever before, so slow laggy usage with brittle slimey plastic shells were common. I hope that the low end space at least creates better physical products that last a bit longer, and if Microsoft get their act together, they could also have a solid OS on such low end hardware that would actually make the experience work for what the hardware was intended for. The fact that the CPU is a "cellphone", sorry mobile phone processor is irrelevant. It's about the experience, and so far, that sounds quite solid.
    • Hello, Bonjour is Apple's implementation of a multicast-DNS service, which allows devices running Apple's software and/or hardware to find each other on your local network.  I believe the Windows version was last updated around 2010. If you do not need it, you can stop and disable the Bonjour service in the Services Control Manager (filename: SERVICES.MSC).  Once you have done that, the operating system will no longer attempt to load the service.

    • This AMD RX 9070 16GB GPU that performs close to Nvidia 5070 is under $600 by Sayan Sen With the memory shortage that's prevalent nowadays, discounts are super-hard to get. As such we post good deals whenever they pop up. Recently, we covered a few great discounts on SSDs wherein you can get a 4TB TeamGroup NVMe PCIe Gen4 drive for just $400 thanks to a special coupon. If you want a faster product but don't need all that capacity, you can also opt for Samsung's 990 PRO 2TB that is on sale for its lowest price in over three months. Let's say though that you are on the hunt for a 1440p gaming card. In that case AMD's RX 9070 non-XT can help, and with its 16GB VRAM, you can also run AI models locally without worrying about bottlenecking (check out our recent 9070 GRE reviews for gaming and productivity to get an idea). The PowerColor Reaper variant of the RX 9070 is currently on sale for just $580 which is a very good price in the current state of affairs (purchase link under the specs table down below). The Reaper cooler on this 9070 uses a triple‑fan design with ring‑blade fans, paired with premium dual ball bearings to extend lifespan and reduce friction. "Intelligent" fan control allows the fans to remain idle at lower temperatures, only spinning up when the GPU is under load. A nickel‑plated copper base makes direct contact with both the GPU and memory modules, helping to spread heat evenly. PowerColor also applies Honeywell PTM7950 phase‑change thermal interface material (TIM), which fills microscopic gaps between the die and heatsink for more efficient thermal transfer. The fan shroud is shorter in height as the firm has made it such that it can be used in certain SFF (small form factor) cases. The technical specifications of the Reaper RX 9070 are given in the table below: Specification Value Stream Processors 3584 Units Video Memory 16GB GDDR6 Memory Speed 20.0 Gbps Memory Interface 256-bit Engine Clock Game Clock: up to 2070 MHz Boost Clock: up to 2520 MHz Bus Standard PCI Express 5.0 x16 Display Connectors 1 x HDMI 2.1b, 3 x DisplayPort 2.1a Maximum Resolution DisplayPort: 7680 × 4320 HDMI: 7680 × 4320 Board Dimensions 289mm × 111mm × 41mm 304mm × 127mm × 42mm (with bracket) Slot 2 Minimum System Power Requirement 600W Power Connectors Two 8-pin PCI Express Get the PowerColor Reaper RX 9070 at the links below (you get only a 90-day warranty on Woot): PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $579.99 (Sold and Shipped by Amazon US) (Was: $700) PowerColor Reaper Radeon RX 9070 16GB Graphics Card (RX9070 16G-A): $559.99 (Sold and Shipped by Woot US) Good to know This Amazon deal is U.S. specific, and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Are they marketed as an entry into astronomy or astrophotography? I do astrophotography. With big rigs, lots of computers, cables and headaches. I love it. And by learning this ridiculously complex hobby, I’ve learned about the objects I’m shooting. Astronomy followed from photography.
    • Microsoft confirms Recycle Bin bug across all versions of Windows by Usama Jawad A couple of days ago, we reported that the latest Patch Tuesday update has seemingly resulted in a lot of issues for many users, including OneDrive and Dropbox access problems, BitLocker recovery lockouts, and BSODs. Although Microsoft is yet to acknowledge these bugs, it has confirmed another, relatively smaller issue across all supported versions of Windows. In an update on its Windows Release Health Dashboard, Microsoft has confirmed that after installing June's Patch Tuesday update (KB5094126), you'll experience unexpected behavior when leveraging Recycle Bin. Basically, when you attempt to delete an item from the Recycle Bin, the confirm dialog will show you the internal file name of that content rather than the actual name. For example, the file may be named abc.png, but the confirm dialog will ask if you're sure that you want to permanently delete $Rxxxxx.png from the Recycle Bin. This is pretty much it for the scope of the bug itself; it just displays the wrong name in the confirm dialog. The correct name will be shown in the list view of the Recycle Bin and if you restore the file, it will return with the correct name as well. This issue affects pretty much all supported versions of Windows client and server, including: Client: Windows 11, version 26H1; Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019; Windows 10 Enterprise LTSB 2016 Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019; Windows Server 2016; Windows Server 2012 R2; Windows Server 2012 As things currently stand, Microsoft is working on a concrete solution that will be released in a "future" Windows update. It remains to be seen if the firm will wait till the next Patch Tuesday or roll out an out-of-band (OOB) fix. The good news is that commercial customers can deploy a workaround right now, but they will have to reach out to Microsoft Support for Business for additional details.
