Hi Ji@nBing,

Are you asking me about how to put the icons next to the tabs?.

If so you need to drag the closed windows button which looks like

a recycle bin down onto the tab bar and then drag any icons you

to the right of it. If you dont drag them to the right of it they will

go all the way to the left side of the tabs.

cheers

heres mine. as u can see i like as much space for the website as possible. i have a button that brings up the main menu. i do almost everything through mouse gestures and keyboard shortcuts. i customised the right click menu with the things i use the most (read feeds, check mail, open closed pages...). i have the clock widget. the skin is meguido.

unless my eyes decieve me, that is ie7 and not opera :pinch:

It is:

- Look at the search field.

- why is the New Tab button missing? (the small tab at the end of all tabs)

- notice how the RSS icon is inside the address bar - IE7 doesn't do that, does it?

- status bar doesn't have 'Internet' or whatever at the end

- there's a trash can

Convinced? :whistle:

How did you get Opera to look exactly like IE7? That's pretty cool.

Alright, here's the steps for getting my setup:

1) Get the skin here. Open the .7z file, and copy the .zip to your skins folder.

2) OPTIONAL: open the skin.ini file in the skin .zip, and add these lines if you want longer tabs:

[Options]
Pagebar max button width	= 225
Pagebar min button width	= 225

3) Grab my toolbar setup below. See the attachment. Note that I took away the RSS icon that stood beside the print toolbar, only because it did virtually nothing.

4) Apply the skin.

5) Hide your menu bar. If you cannot do this, go into Preferences, the Advanced tab, and the Shortcuts category. Edit your current keyboard setup. Select the 'Application' tree, and click New. On the left side, type in: "Platform Windows, F11 alt" and on the right side: "Enable menu bar | Disable menu bar" (in both cases, type without quotes). Click OK, and OK again. Now you can use ALT+F11 to hide/enable the menu bar.

6) If you want to make this setup a bit more like IE, you can go ahead and change the title of Opera to "Windows Internet Explorer" and use the IE7 icon. To do that:

- Exit Opera, and go into your profile folder. Open up opera6.ini

- under [user Prefs] stick in these lines:

Title=Windows Internet Explorer
Application icon=<<PATH TO ICON>>\ie7.ico

- Grab the IE7 icon file below, and place it anywhere (preferably your profile folder). Just change <<PATH TO ICON>> to the name of its folder.

Now you can optionally change the O icon on your quicklaunch/desktop/Start Menu to the E just to fool almost anyone using your computer. :yes:

(side note: I was inspired to take on this layout after seeing this.)

Nice. Will you have a toolbar .ini and modified skin .zip made available somewhere?

edit: I see you posted it in the other thread, but the toolbar.ini ZIP is corrupt. :(

Edited by rm20010

Hi rm20010,

The toolbar.ini in the Three Things forum you need to click on

it and then it will come up asking you to save it.

And in the Opera forum where i posted it also

i could save and open it no problems there either.

Anyway I will post it here if i can again

standard_toolbar__1_.zip

P.S. I noticed when you try to save it ...its stops for some reason but if

you go into the transfer and restart it ....it then seems to save okay.

See how you go anyway.

cheers

    • 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 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.
    • Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug by Taras Buria Forza Horizon 6 was launched last month to critical acclaim (check out our review here), and it became a smash hit in an instant. Now, weeks into the launch, with die-hard fans clocking hundreds of hours, Forza Horizon 6 is facing a serious issue: save wipes. After multiple complaints on Reddit and social media, the studio issued a statement. The problem with missing saves came shortly after Playground Games promised the initial batch of gameplay tweaks and improvements. Unfortunately, there seems to be no temporary fixes for those affected by unexpected save wipes. However, the studio published a new support document with a few important steps users should try. First, affected gamers should open a support ticket immediately (go here to file one) so that the support team can try recovering the lost progress by reverting to an earlier save. Playground Games says this should be done the same day the issue occurs. Meanwhile, gamers are urged not to start new play sessions or create new saves. The studio also published a few things gamers should try to avoid to prevent potential progress loss: Ensure your Gaming Services app on PC or XBOX Series X|S console is fully up to date. On XBOX Series X|S consoles, disable Quick Resume for Forza Horizon 6: To disable Forza Horizon 6 from using Quick Resume, highlight the game box art anywhere in the console experience (Home, My Games & Apps, Pins, etc) and then press the Menu button, then go to Manage game and add-ons > Quick Resume settings > Disable Quick Resume. Ensure you are online when ‘quitting’ the game. Give your saved time to sync to the cloud before powering off or switching devices. Do not force quit the game during save screens. Do not power off the device during gameplay. Always "Quit" (console) or "Exit to desktop" (PC) once you've finished your play session, ensuring the save icon is not visible when you’re closing the game. Before turning off your console, shutting down your PC, or force-closing the Steam app, give your devices or clients at least a few minutes to ensure your latest progress has been synchronized with the cloud. This will reduce the risk of progress reversions as you switch between different platforms. XBOX Series X|S consoles, Steam, and the XBOX app on PC all include game save indicators that confirm your progress has been synced. You can read more about the bug in the official support document here. Forza Horizon 6 is currently available on PC (Steam and the Microsoft Store), Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass. The game is also coming to PlayStation 5 later this year.
