Is it just me, or does this guy have the worst attitude of any themer since Bant? :p

I agree wholeheartedly... it's rather displeasing... his theme blew up into something huge, and now he's 'too cool' to give anyone the decency of respect. I mean, c'mon, someone creating a modded shutdown window out of their own time, and he has the nerve to say "i don't see the point." C'mon, he's making something to contribute to YOUR suite... people these days just amaze me, thinking they're the best thing since sliced bread.

It is a nice VS, I totally agree. That's why I'm using it, and will continue to use it. I was just making a comment, but I'll refrain from that again.

So you don't think I made this theme on my own time? It really disappoints me that people are complaining then I'm just writing my thoughs. Just as you and all others here. It has never been my intention to be rude to anyone. :(

If all people can do is complain then maybe I should stop making themes other then for private use. All I'm trying is to be nice to everyone who appreciate my work.

Well, it's not often that a theme comes arround like this that people want to take the time to make all kinds of add ons for. You should be happy that the community likes the theme so much that they are willing to take the time to make things for it. It just seems like when someone makes something, you complain (there was the wallpapers earlier). Again, you should be flattered and happy that people want to take the time to make this theme more complete with add ons and making suggestions. That's a huge compliment and a testiment to how well done the theme is and how much we all like it.

I do understand that, which is why I'm extremely grateful for you time and talent, as is everyone else here. We all greatly appreciate your work, and that's why we're trying to give back. Everyone is trying to give back to this suite so that you don't get requests of "Hey, em3, please make a shutdown window" or "Hey, em3, I would love to see a winamp/WiMP theme". They're not doing this just for themselves, otherwise they wouldn't post it here. I'm just saying, we all appreciate your work, and are trying to show it by giving back.

I think the reason people 'complain' is because they spend their own time on top of what you've already spent to contribute to the theme and you seem condescending about the whole thing, as if its intruding on your publicity.

It means a lot thought that you'd come out and say you never intended to be rude... It's very hard to tell the "tone" of someone's "voice" online, because well, there is no voice to listen to.

I think there just confusion as to how to take some of the things you say, thats all, but I believe that the comment you made helps clear things up.

Anyway, all in all, great theme, we all love it, and that's why we're trying to give back.

ok, right, some people do complain. but that isn't what we only do! me and many others make a complement every now and then, and I think you shouldn't stay mad with our complains, you should use them to improve your theme AND yourself as a person.

I've been reading this thread with great interest for some time now and feel that the contributed additions from members such as Dazzla be they official or unofficial are worth an addition to the project in some way shape or form be it an edit to the first post or perhaps if Dazzla and yourself (em3) could work on this together this theme could become even better.

Making this theme complete including logons, shutdown dialogs, wallpapers, skins etc sounds like a brilliant idea IMHO and would really be the icing on the cake, when Microsoft created the Luna them they didn't say "What the hell screw the shutdown dialog it will only be seen briefly" (not an attack against you em3).

A team effort would be great however it is initially em3's work and I do believe it is up to him how it all pans out in the end.

Thank you em3 for your time and effort and anyone else which has made any additions to complement this theme, I look forward to any updates

    • 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.
