yeah, I already knew about FlyakiteOSX. I started working on Mac VS X in December last year and I only heard about FlyakiteOSX last week - I wasn't about to throw all the work I had done away just because of this. Besides, I think it could be done better.

Hopefully you'll see Mac VS X will have it's advantages when it hits v1 :happy:

Pfft... Just go buy a Mac... :ninja:

LOL Just kidding... I was there not too long ago, though I do have my Mac mini now. There's only so much you can do to make it seem like a Mac, but it's so much different once you actually sit down and use a Mac.

LOL - more true words have never been spoken.

Believe me, if I could I would buy a Mac - I adore Apple. I'm trying to get my hands on an iMac. Until then, this is the best I can do. :)

And I completely understand. I was incredibly happy to get the money for my Mac mini... Now I'll never go back to using my Windows machine as my primary computer.

Really looks great~ The skins look just like Mac. A long way it still has. If the hock and the taskbar & menu can be changed into sth like Mac, it'll be greater. I just thought the hardest one is to customize the menu just make it like Mac's. Hold on.

But, but don't you think it is a little bit too large the size?

The visual style was contributed by KoL - any suggestions should go to him :)

And as for the size, I'd love to make it smaller but at the moment I can't.

    • Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 headphones are down to lowest price in over a month by Taras Buria Bose's second-gen QuietComfort Ultra headphones are premium over-ear headphones with noise cancellation, but right now, you can save 16%, thanks to a discount that brought the headphones to a new lowest price in over a month. While the general look and aesthetics remain unchanged compared to the previous gen, the Gen 2 features redesigned wear-detection sensors, which accurately pause your music the moment you take them off. Additionally, the headphones now support lossless audio via a direct USB-C wired connection, letting you enjoy uncompressed sound when plugged into your laptop or phone. There is also spatial audio support (works wirelessly) for a more immersive audio experience and improved noise cancellation, which makes the QuietComfort Ultra go-to headphones for many users on long flights or other scenarios when they need to isolate themselves from the surrounding noise. The QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2) also features Bluetooth Multipoint for seamless switching between two devices at once. As for battery life, you get up to 30 hours on a single charge (up to 23 hours when using spatial audio). Besides good audio quality and noise cancellation, the headphones should be comfortable to wear, thanks to the lightweight 250-gram design and soft protein-leather ear pads. The QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 are available in four colors, and all five are now available at the lowest price: Bose QuietComfort Ultra Bluetooth Headphones (2nd Gen) - $379 | 16% off on Amazon This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

    • Started implementing weapons! Here's a little sneak peek! 👀 Animation was done inside of Unreal Engine using Control Rig! Really useful tool, I don't have to go back and forth between Blender and UE, you can basically make tweaks while the game is running.
    • Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
    • Oddly, there was a time that UFC games were culturally relevant, largely because of the graphics and gameplay that was different than the norm. But it seems like as the sport grew in popularity, gaming outlets stopped talking about the games.
