It looks like your running an older version of the theme that was buggy and didnt apply sysmetric colors correctly .. redownload it and reapply the visual style it should display Whilte titlebar text with a shaddow.

If your not sure weather or not you have the older style go to your display properties -- Appearance tab and change the color schemes a couple times .. if the preview is corrupted then you have the buggy version if the previews for the color schemes look ok then you probably have a good version, also if you have saved this visual style as a .theme edit the .theme file with notepad and remove all the entries under [Control Panel\Colors] and save the file again .. then reapply the theme.

you got the correct download :)

your defanatly having a problem with it not applying sysmetric values and colors.

you might try reapplying the visual style in the display properties rather than in stylebuilder cuz stylebuilder does things a little different when it applys a visual style over a theme.

and again if your applying the visual style over a personally saved theme you might want to edit the .theme file for it and remove the entries for [Control Panel\Colors] before you apply the visual style this will force windows to get the sysmetric values from the visual style instead of the .theme file .

I run into this problem with visual styles occasionally, i had thought is was a limitation of the theme engine that it couldnt handle lots of 32bit bitmaps or maybe doesnt like haveing too many images set to "stretch" to fill. im not exactly sure what the cause is but i thought i fixed it when i resized the taskbar images, at least it fixed it on my machine. so im guessing that its more an issue with resources than limitations of the theme enginne if your still haveing problems with it and im not ..

and i would be interested to hear if anyone else is having this problem too !!

if your not the only one ill go back to stylebuilder and strip it down some more untill it works for everyone !

    • I agree when are you going to read this (really poor BTW) article?
    • I disagree; they come off very "bitchy" and "whiny". Make a great product and combine that with a great price (free) and people will come over to your side. Or build it and they will come as they say. Constantly trying to get attention by complaining all the time, will turn people off to your product.
    • It use to be a nightmare, with LibreOffice supporting a newer draft ODF standard by default, and Microsoft Office supporting the older non-draft standard. Now that they both support the same version of ODF, they should be interoperable.
    • Brave Browser 1.91.171 by Razvan Serea Brave Browser is a lightning-fast, secure web browser that stands out from the competition with its focus on privacy, security, and speed. With features like HTTPS Everywhere and built-in tracker blocking, Brave keeps your online activities safe from prying eyes. Brave is one of the safest browsers on the market today. It blocks third-party data storage. It protects from browser fingerprinting. And it does all this by default. Speed - Brave is built on Chromium, the same technology that powers Google Chrome, and is optimized for speed, providing a fast and responsive browsing experience. Brave Browser also features Brave Rewards, a system that rewards users with Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) for viewing opt-in ads. This innovative system provides an alternative revenue model for content creators and a way to support the Brave community. SlimBrave Neo takes all the good things about Brave and makes them even better by keeping everything clean, light, and privacy-focused. It removes the extra clutter, turns off features you might not need, and cuts down on anything that could slow you down or collect unnecessary data. Because it relies on simple settings and policies instead of modifying the browser itself, you still get full Brave compatibility—just in a smoother, lighter, and more privacy-friendly package. Brave Browser 1.91.171 changelog: General Fixed Cardano not being disabled on upgrade to Brave Origin. Upgraded Chromium to 149.0.7827.103. Origin Removed “Survey Panelist” setting from brave://settings/privacy. Fixed P3A and usage ping under brave://settings/privacy being displayed on first launch on Linux.

    • Hi. As the title suggests, I can't access the forum on my phone. I'm using Edge on Android and when I try to navigate to the forum I get a "we value your privacy" popup and none of the buttons are clickable. It effectively stonewalls me from reading any forum content.
