?

improving...

but how about something more like the intensity of blue that neowin has. except a little brighter.

[edit]

actually, now that i think about it, that might be a pretty good idea.

lots of the themes i use, have different colors.

and i spend most of my time on my computer, lookin at neowin.:D

so if the theme matches neowin well, that'll be really something!

***just something to think about*** ;)

[/edit]

That's funny, I never heard anyone complain about the purple of the original Rhodium edge? Hell arhra, just make the theme the way you want, it's your work. People, don't start nit picking over colors, the theme is still a work in progress. I'm sure arhra will release other colors over time if he sees a need.

i understand, but it seems that everyone would like to see this change from the purplish color.

and i can't speak for arhra, but i would think that it's better to say all these things while it is still a work in progress.

lets say no one says anything, and he finishes the whole theme using the original color scheme.

then everyone starts 'nit picking'...i doubt he would be really happy to do it then.

esp when he puts out betas for BETA TESTING.

if you don't agree, speak up arhra. but you seem really accepting of our requests.

so again, keep up the great work.;)

No, what I was saying was let him finish the first theme then make your color suggestions. Bug reports yes but how the hell does recoloring the original theme work out bugs? All it does is slow down the progress. Like you said let arhra speak for himself but I would like to see this theme hit the streets asap without recoloring it 50 shades of blue first.

well the original blue is gonna stay as the default, mainly because i can't be arsed going through and changing all the graphics for the litestep theme... (although i may get round to a deeper blue version of it eventually).

anyway, i've been fiddling a bit more (aren't stylebuilder's colorization options great? ;) ), but at this point, i've got more important things to do (like get the logoff/shutdown buttons done, the programs menu needs overhauling, etc).

if you really want it a particular shade of blue, feel free to import it into stylebuilder and colorize it yourself :p

personally i absolutely loved the original purple color, if for no other reason than simply because it didn't look like very other theme/color combination out there.

if another color(s) is to be added, at least keep the original in the final release so those that didn't want a change will still be satisfied.

having choices is what theming is all about anyway, right?

good luck sorting it all out arhra!

[EDIT] oh, i see arhra beat me to it! excellent! :D [/EDIT]

understood.:p

i can wait though. esp since i'll be happier to see the version that i'll be happy use. not gay to use.:p :D ;)

minor issues:

- with a double-height task bar, the top & bottom lines jam right up against the edge of the blue tray box. looks like the spacing is just set too large between the lines - dunno if that can be changed or not...

- the name: rhodium edge ii - eh. how about rhodium edge reloaded??? ;)

and i like the blue you've chosen - don't change that.

keep up the great work!

but i'm surprized you didn't make the log off and turn off buttons rhodium, and the start button too, and the all programs button.

and maybe even include a wallpaper that you think goes with rhodium edge vII

rhodium edge vII beta - beta As in still in development. It's not even in the "Completed Visual Styles" forum. I'm sure arhra won't disappoint when he does release this as final.

"subliminal message" (arhra think orange and black) :D

OMFG!!!!

I am going to officially switch to litestep JUST for this theme!!!

/me hugs arhra

but uhh arha... can you do me (and Dazzla) a huge favor... and sorta incorporate this (http://images.deviantart.com/large/screens...s/dt2k20505.png) into the theme... if you did i'd love you forever LOL. i'm really talking just about the minimize/maximize/close part of the toolbar... thats the best part...

but otherwise... keep up the good work!!!

@nemo, I think that's what you're talking about. arhra already added that back into the theme from our prior begging :D

oh... yeah you are right LMFAO...

i'm still really waiting for the litestep theme.. that is what i really want... hopefully it'll be released soon :/

It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly. Vertical Tabs: Manage tabs vertically. Container Tabs: Separate browsing sessions. Fast Profile Switcher: Switch between profiles easily. Tab Folders: Organize tabs into folders.

Zen Mods Customization: Deep customization with mods. Quick Access: Easy access to favorite websites. Open Source: Built on Mozilla Firefox with community collaboration. Community-Driven: Active development and feedback from users. GitHub Repository: Contribute and review the source code. Zen Browser 1.21b changelog: New Features Updated to Firefox 151.0.4 Added 'Space Routing', a new feature that allows you to route links to a specific Space.

    • Windows Server gets DNS over HTTPS (DoH) support by Usama Jawad For the past few months, Microsoft has been previewing DNS over HTTPS (DoH) for Windows DNS Server, touting it as a foundational upgrade for zero-trust enterprise networks. It essentially introduces encrypted, authenticated DNS for the networks rather than transmitting DNS traffic in clear. Now, the company has introduced the general availability (GA) of this feature. The GA of DoH encourages organizations to deploy the solution in production environments without implementing a new client-to-resolver architecture. DoH helps improve the overall security of the network and reduces the risk of spoofing due to its zero-trust design. This is a significant change because pretty much every interaction with the network requires interfacing with DNS. DoH offers several advantages over standard DNS traffic, such as encryption using HTTPS, preventing unauthorized inspection, man-in-the-middle attacks, and traffic analysis. Since it leverages TLS certificates so that clients can verify the identity of the DNS server, it prevents spoofing through this authentication mechanism. Additionally, it's built on the DoH standard defined by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), which means that it should work with modern RFC 8484-compliant clients. Finally, it integrates into the existing network architecture seamlessly and can even run in parallel with standard DNS, so that customers can migrate to the new technology at their own pace. Microsoft says that in the past few months of preview, DoH has become more stable, and customers can confidently deploy it in production environments with proper guidance. Microsoft has emphasized that migrating to DoH is necessary for organizations that are moving toward zero-trust DNS solutions. Windows clients already support DoH, but the latest availability on Windows Server provides encrypted DNS to all endpoints. The company has also mentioned that "while this release focuses on encrypting client-to-resolver communication, support for encrypted communication between Windows DNS Server and upstream DNS resolvers is planned for a future update." You can follow Microsoft's guidance to deploy DoH here, but keep in mind that you need a Windows Server 2025 installation with the latest Patch Tuesday updates installed.
