My apologies, life as it is, has been very busy. To top it all off, the copy of StyleBuilder I have (early version) can open and allow me to edit the theme, and even compile it. But! When I try to apply the VS (by double-clicking) the msstyle, it throws an error. I cannot for the life of me find StyleBuilder 2.0 or 2.5.

It's one thing after another!

Plus I've been argueing with Alan Zeino, who has ripped Opus OS for his own 'theme', which kinda put me off skinning also. I might even post the PM's because it has annoyed me that much.

That sucks b0se. You dont need to apolagise, i'm sure we can wait :).

Feel free to post the pm's. I wouldn't mind knowing what Alan Zeino has to say for that kind of disgusting behaviour :no:. Opus OS was and is one of your best themes, and it's just disgusting that someone will rip it for their own personal gain :angry:

Nice to hear an update. Hope everything turns out right :D

I hope you will keep at your wonderful work, ross. From the comments on every one of your themes you can see that many people appriciate you and your work, and i for one do hope you will continue to bring us some of the best visual eyecandy we can find ;)

Have you been able to get a working copy of StyleBuilder ?

Thanks for the support guys!

Alan, I didn't post anything publically, only my annoyance. You pasted parts of the PM conversation we had. Like AgentSmith says - keep it out of this thread.

The second I get hold of a working StyleBuilder (not version 1), I'll get on with the theme. Until then, my hands are tied. Like I said, I refuse to pay for software that promotes software. It's disgusting on TGTSoft's part. I also had no reply about a licence, even though they did indeed send me one before.

Hey guys and gals!

I've been stupidly busy as of late, but at night I've been finding myself fiddling in StyleBuilder. I was after a theme that resembled Classic, with with some colour. Not as much as Codename Opus however, this one is really a classic based theme.

Preview...

XPMClassic.png

I'm extremely happy with it at the moment, I've been using it to develop on for a few weeks and it's still as appealing to me, I hope it's like that for anybody who fancies the look of it. I used bright blues for buttons, scrollbar hovers etc to remind me that summer is on its way!

To do:

Tabs

Start panel (erk)

Taskbar

I'm using the Codename Opus widgets (tickboxes, sliders) so I do not have to touch them (booyah!).

ETA: 2 weeks...

BTW: Please refrain yourselves from "That looks like XYZ" (not seen anything like it personally!), I've been developing this using only classic with no influences whatsoever. Been away from the scene for months!

looks prettyjust one request can you add some 2 tone dark/black color for people whos there pc mostly at night like myself. Too much bright ness hurts after a long while.

this looks like a terrificificicific theme, i can't wait.

As for Alan, i have no doubts that you can put together a theme with your own work, and i would use one of your themes (because they so closely resemble b0se and bants work) however i think you need to stop modifying others themes, and try something really creative

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
