I'm bugged by all the Visual Styles where you have to have Y'z Dock / Toolbar / etc just to make it look complete. Y'z tools are really amazing, I just don't enjoy having little apps running simply to make the style complete.

This looks like a great style, but (N) for the Y'z dependency.

Uhh, what the hell are you talking about? The dock in the screen isn't even using a matching theme when compared to the VS, and the VS is complete in itself, yo udon't have to run a dock to use it?

If you need an example, look at the toolbar. That's Yz Toolbar. The VS is not going to look all nice and slick without it. I think the Yz stuff are sweet enhancements but I like it when a VS doesn't need to have them to stand on its own two feet.

... Visual Style? Sorry, I was transfixed by the fact that someone else had actually heard of The Butterfly Effect (Great Aussie band, by the way, if you're in to that style of music)...

Okay, so, the VS... To be honest, it doesn't really work for me. The whole thing is just so... innocuous? The start button, the caption buttons, the taskbar tray expand button. They're just so bland and nondescript. I like VS' where something jumps out at me and I'm left with the "wow, that's cool/creative/original" feeling.

Oh, and what media player is that? Or is it a Konfabulator widget or something?

That's kind of ridiculous to expect themes to all be designed around the default, ugly toolbar icons.  If you're too lazy to reshack a handful of bitmaps or too much of a resource pincher to run Yz Toolbar, then don't expect such a nice look to your comp.

Thanks for the opinion, I gave mine too.

    • Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug

      By RejZoR · Posted

      Wow, imagine you dump hundreds of hours into completing things and unlocking stuff and you lose it all. Back in the day when cheats were built into games, you could at least unlock things again that way without spending hundreds of hours again. But those days are long gone for some reason as no one builds cheats into games anymore. So it's even more painful that studio that's on its 6th installment **** it up so badly.
    • Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      Spotify finally removes the disco ball app icon in the latest update by Ivan Jenic Image: Spotify Spotify has just released an update that removes its now infamous disco ball icon. The update reverts the app icon to the familiar flat green logo after weeks of mixed reactions online. The icon arrived on May 13 as part of the company's 20th anniversary celebration and was always intended to be temporary, though Spotify only confirmed that after the backlash started. The disco ball took the internet by storm, as the reception was split. A vocal group of users called it ugly and disorienting, with some iOS users noting that the 3D glowing effect made the app look like it was stuck mid-update. On the other end, the icon picked up a following of its own. Its retro, three-dimensional look immediately stood out against the flat, minimalist aesthetic that has dominated app design for years. It even started a small movement, spawning what people started calling "discomorphism," a mashup of disco and skeuomorphism. Other brands started posting disco ball versions of their own logos, probably in an effort to ride the wave of memes that flooded the internet during late May. Spotify has had a turbulent relationship with its user base lately. Besides the disco ball icon, which certainly wasn't appreciated by everyone, the company has also received backlash for its willingness to include AI-generated music on its platform. On May 17, Spotify promised the old icon would return “in a few weeks.” And now it looks like that time has finally arrived. So, whether you liked the disco ball or it made you uncomfortable, it’s now gone for good. The next time you update the Spotify app on your phone, the old, flat-design icon will return.
