Some buggies I found, click image for larger.

The one of the white text on the button it's true. The other one is just yours (and it looks pretty ****** up :p)

And thanks Lou, that solved it.

its because i'm using Ultramon, so the 2nd taskbar must be getting the wrong image for the bar. i have no problems with other themes.

I'd like to see some more creativeness with the buttons and tabs. Those don't look much different than stock Longhorn or XP, and with the stylish blue of the theme, they look rather misplaced.

well, since the theme its a conbimation between longhorn inspirat and luna royale I think the tabs are ok, I just hope for a version with the inspirat caption buttons

I'm still not convinced. The tabs and buttons just don't seem to fit in. They still have the yellow/orange + grey highlight from Slate. It would look far better if they took on the silverish tones of the scrollbars.

And yes, I'd love to see the longer caption buttons off the original Inspirat theme.

A mod which may help with the icon size problem, and fixes the Logoff image problem in the blue/green substyle:

StefanKa,

Wow, I really did not think that I would be using a blue/green VS after all the conservative VS colours that were more of my style...but this is really nice!

Yes, can't wait till the 'on top type shellstyle', and also 'very important' from our talented Firefox themers, a new colour scheme (for the URL & Search bar boxes & tabs) to match...lol

:laugh: :cool:

you have to download Y'z Toolbar and then copy the Y'z Toolbar folder that came with this theme into the Y'z Toolbar Themes Directory that comes with the download, then open, Y'z Toolbar .EXE and change it

fairly straight forward really :)

    • It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.
    • Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.
    • I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.
    • It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
