You're right, here's one with a lighter brown. It's easy to modify, just open the dll in reshacker and search for the RGB number of what you want to change.

I also modded the Luna Logon, again it's another quicky just so the colours are more in line with Element.

OMFG :woot: ! Now my desktop is just waiting for a good icon set. Thanks, Daz, for enhancing this awesome and usable theme! :yes:

Do you know when V3 will come out? LOL. The only thing that isn't my favorite, although I still like it is the rollover effect on the taskbar. I'd prefer something a little different but that's just me. I've completely "Element"ed my computer now. Thanks again.

Strangely enough, the taskbar rollover effect is one of the best things I like in Element. I am not difficult, this VS has a perfect foundation. Perfect in my opinion because the author chose not to overload with graphical details like so many Mac or Longhorn copycats.

The possible improvements I think are variations around the base theme (more colors and misc. add-ins like logins screen, applucation skins, etc.).

Thanks again em3 for this wonderful VS. I hope you'll consider adding more color substyles.

There is no 1px space at maximized. At least I can't see it. I see it in Firefox but there is nothing I can do about that.

It's okay it's not your VS it's Windows.

Anyone good at making a logoff/shutdown dialog that match this theme?

I know the dialogs are in shell32 and msgina but where are the graphics?

First off, great theme, i love it!

Secondly... Dazzla, Shellstyle looks great, anyway by chance that you could, when its minimized, have a single pixel that kinda "completes" the bottom, so to speak. Otherwise it looks like it should be running on into infinity. If not, mind telling me how I might go about changing this myself? :)

Anyway, kudos to all involved, this is great. I had just switched back to Window's Default Luna in Silver, but now I'm back to a non-MS themed windows :) Also, a Silver would be AWESOME :)

P.S. I have been a member for years, but rarely post, it takes a great theme to actually get me to post :)

oh, I agree with you, doing that would improve the shellstyle a lot, make it look more professional. anyway, it's nothing essencial, as I rarely minimize those "windows"

      I recently tried edge. It seems a lot better. A lot of the junk in it is gone. It seems less bloated and snappy.
    • Lethal fake phone chargers are still being sold on Amazon and eBay, UK watchdog warns

      By zikalify · Posted

      Lethal fake phone chargers are still being sold on Amazon and eBay, UK watchdog warns by Paul Hill Credit: Pexels The UK consumer rights organization, Which?, is claiming that “potentially lethal knock-off chargers” are still being sold on online marketplaces seven years after it exposed the danger of these chargers. In its latest investigation, it bought 15 USB phone chargers from several online marketplaces and found they were missing key information, meaning they cannot be legally sold in the UK. Which? bought the 15 chargers from seven online marketplaces. These were Amazon (including Amazon Haul), AliExpress, B&Q Marketplace, Debenhams Marketplace, and eBay. It said that the chargers were so badly made that anyone using them was at risk of electric shock. Over half the chargers also posed fire and explosion risks. Of the chargers purchased, one was a fake Apple USB-C 35W power adaptor charger. To confuse buyers, the box was branded with an Apple logo, but testing found it to be a fake. Further testing picked up arcing sounds after 10 seconds of use, where a current jumps between two parts of the electrical circuit, which can cause fires, explosions, or electric shock. The manufacturers of this particular charger also put modeling clay inside it to make it feel more weighty, robust, and genuine. Not all of the chargers were technically faulty; however, some were missing key packaging, markings, and documentation, meaning they can’t be sold in the UK legally. Which? said that it is now campaigning alongside a coalition of safety groups and businesses for new laws that make online marketplaces responsible for ensuring the safety of products that they choose to list on their websites. It also said the government needs to start using powers under the Product Regulation and Metrology Act, which was adopted last July, to impose safety requirements on online marketplaces via secondary legislation, but so far, there have been delays. No matter what country you are in, be sure to properly research what you are buying and only buy authentic chargers to prevent fires. You can read more about Which?’s research here.
    • Visual Studio finally gets long-awaited feature that developers will love

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Visual Studio finally gets long-awaited feature that developers will love by Usama Jawad Visual Studio Code is Microsoft's popular, lightweight, open-source code editor, it is actually Visual Studio that is the company's flagship integrated development environment (IDE). Although the IDE already offers a boatload of useful features for developers, Microsoft has finally introduced a long-requested capability that will be loved by many. While developers have already been able to create Git pull requests (PRs) directly within Visual Studio for the past couple of years, it had not been possible to review a PR without switching to the browser, until now. Microsoft revealed in December 2025 that it is working on UX that enables developers to do just that, and fast-forward to June 2026, and Visual Studio finally has native capabilities to open and inspect a PR, discuss feedback, and wrap up the review, all without switching to the browser. This integration works for both GitHub and Azure DevOps (including on-prem). Developers have access to multiple surfaces to open a PR, including Git Repository, Git Changes, and the Git menu in Visual Studio. Once you open a PR, all the important details will be immediately visible to you, from where you can navigate to various levels of granularity and branch states, depending on the reviews that you are engaged in. As you would expect, you also get a diff view that enables you to see code changes inline or side-by-side in a separate panel. You can also review commit-by-commit. Additionally, this UX fosters collaboration as you can leave comments, reply to threads, and resolve conversations easily. Naturally, you can also leverage Copilot to apply a code suggestion to fix a potential issue. When you are done, you have the ability to approve, complete, and merge the PR. This is a pretty major feature as it has been requested heavily for the past few years. You can try it out in Visual Studio 2026 version 18.7, made available here recently. Microsoft plans to enhance this experience further in future releases with comment filtering, a timeline of PR activity, and more.
