This seriously is one of the most awesome themes.... ever. The first theme to make me change from giga's dotted.

For all those asking for the best wallpaper which goes with this, i would say try the organic pack. Also, this theme doesnt make my firefox theme fonts go all over the place.

Heylove, please can u make a version which doesnt have a compact taskbar, i need a full task bar. Could u make it, please....

Anyway, here is how i have my desktop with this theme.

Clean desktop

Below is a pic for messy desktop

I just find it hard to use the taskbar when its compact. I would really prefer a full taskbar. I think it looks nicer also. Oh, and u added that bold to the need word in my quote. You're right tho, my wrong choice of words using need. But would be really nice if Heylove would make a full taskbar **hint-hint** . I would really appreciate it.

Are there any further plans for this style? Boot and login screens, log off/shut down dialogs, cursors, and possibly an addon icon pack would be great.

This is one of the best visual styles that I've seen so far. It really deserves the same attention that Nano received.

Anyway, I'll be attempting to make log off and shut down dialogs sometime in the next few days, though I tried this once with one of grayhouse's visual styles and failed miserably. If anything comes of it (and if I can get permission) I'll post it here. :)

Maybe it was teh 7 point font???

Awesome style, but would only work on a 800x600 monitor because of the font size!

IMHO 8pt is the absolute minimum any style should have. Its just not legible below that, particularly using ClearType. :p

Sorry for the late update, though I doubt anyone was actually waiting. Anyway, I (once again) had no luck at all with the logoff and shut down prompts.

Is anyone else planning on (or at least interested in) making more content for this style? I'd be glad to help out wherever I can. Just seems I can never finish anything on my own. :p

    • Windows 11 is now five years old

      By bikeman25 · Posted

      Apart from Early Hiccups on Windows 11 on first install on October 6th 2021 on my old Intel 10700 daily use Desktop PC at the time, used to have issue with Bluetooth suddenly no longer working and only fix back then was always another clean install--then would work for a while. Transition to 2024 when i decided to finally upgrade that system for better support for Battlefield 2042 and Battlefield 6 later on, opted for next daily use Gaming Desktop AMD Ryzen 7 7700X and Radeon 7800XT OC 16GB. No major problems at all with this desktop, OS was clean installed way back on 10/8/2025 not long after 25H2 released. Overall i've been happy with Windows 11 Pro from the start, even minor little quirks didn't sway me. Heck i even use Windows 8 and upgraded immediately upon release back then on my old HP P6-2133W Desktop, and while the specs of that machine didn't give me top notch performance--i still was able to do what i wanted to, without too many slowdowns. Windows ME i didn't use on any of my personal systems back in the day, kept those systems on 98SE til XP released, and grabbed that immediately on release date. Kept XP til Vista Released then upgraded immediately, kept Vista til Windows 7 released, then updated immediately again

      To be fair, it wasn't going anywhere. Even when Windows Phone could run Android APKs, Google didn't want any of it so it'd never work and the same thing happened with Windows. It was never about the store or it's users, it was always the developers and who they aligned to.
