but how come luna element 1 shows the buttons right with the uxtheme patcher and luna element 2 with the uxtheme patcher doesen't show properly?it is clearly not the uxtheme patcher?explain that Boz if you can.

Haven't been visiting Neowin regularly for a while, this is the first new theme I've downloaded and used in ages. You did a great job of subtly improving Element. The new start menu is drool worthy. Those dark blue shades make it one of the most eye pleasing start menus I've ever seen. Party on. :)

a very logical question. How can it be solely the patched uxtheme.dll when the buttons show correctly everywhere else including in Luna Element 1. We better look elsewhere, the answer does not lie in the patched uxtheme.dll.

I'm looking forward in getting Luna Element 2 Trillian Skin.  The one done by Family Guy is nice (released to match LE), but the buttons are too big for the compact style...  :(

Anyway, good job em3!

It will be updated, and I have plans for a surprise... :ninja:

em3, I'm assuming I still have your permission to port it right?

First of all, em3, thank you very much for making such a great looking theme. I think I might know what the problem is with the Java control panel. It's nothing to do with the uxtheme.dll patch but rather the version of Windows XP. I have SP1 running at home and everything shows up perfect (with the buttons). The SP2 at work have no buttons whatsoever. So I am guessing it must be something that changed in SP2 that caused this.

Absolutely beautiful work! Please keep sharing your talents with us. :yes:

*The Java control panel issue is a non-issue as far as I'm concerned. I have only looked at it a few times since installation and the lack of buttons isn't of any concern to me.

why don't i have any?

in the pm's you had no problem with me making it. now you act like it doesn't even exist.

I'm sorry. It been a lot of new post these last days. But family_guy made the first port so I don't think he should be ruled out making the 2:nd one. If you want yours to be released instead, talk to family_guy. Please don't let me be caught in the middle.

why can't there be two versions to choose from? competition is what sparks improvement and innovation. if there were only one type of car why would that company improve upon what they have if theres no competition to compete against?

there are already like 3 winamp element skins so why should this be any different.

well from what i saw in screenshots of his old version he only used the large caption buttons. mine is made with the more compact size. there will definately be differences between the 2 skins, since i have never used his i have no idea what certain parts even look like.

but to say now you don't want in the middle after you basically told 2 people to do it makes no sense.

i don't know why i even bothered helping you in the first place. you are completely lost about how things work apparently.

a beta will be posted on my forums. if you don't like it, too bad. you already told me to go ahead and make it, so i'll go ahead and release it.

this thread is starting to make the reluna thread look like a congressional hearing, in terms of being orderly, logical and intelligent. for the love of pete... not trashing on bant or his theme, but there certainly was a ton of ridiculous and unnecessary trash in that thread and it looks like its happening here too.

"don't put me in the middle of this" ? um, hate to tell you, but you're the theme creator. you're in the middle of this by default.

Well said Stevo! (Y)

You go out of your way to try to help improve someone's work and you just get shafted...just don't get it. I think all of the @ss kissing around here is getting to someone's head. :wacko:

    • Lol I had one of these turn faulty in Jan, guess it wasn't just bad luck lol
    • I'm team Rossmann all the way. I have the exact same NVME, altough not in an array like him.
    • It had gone weeks ago. Although thinking about it I'm on the beta.
    • They thought value of their goods would forever only drop like it used to and didn't account for sudden increase in price because of all the Ai hype. Tough luck Samsung, don't try to weasel this one out. Also American customer protection laws are a**. In Europe, you need to be compensated for a functioning product of same or better characteristics (not same price point as when it was originally bought!) if it can't be repaired and when you receive a replacement product your warranty starts from scratch because you received a different item than you previously had and old warranty thus cannot apply to it anymore. If your actual item was successfully repaired, warranty gets extended for the period the item was in service. If item is repaired to a significant extent, warranty also starts over from scratch because major part of it was replaced. Americans need to fight to get this kind of consumer protections because they are constantly getting screwed over.
    • Microsoft releases new Windows 11 Media Creation Tool with the latest updates by Taras Buria Patch Tuesday updates arrive every month, bringing users new features and security updates. To make sure customers have access to the most recent images, Microsoft also releases updates to the Media Creation Tool app, its official utility for Windows 11 installation. Today, the company pushed new ISOs to Media Creation Tool, allowing you to create images with the June 2026 Patch Tuesday updates. With the latest update, the Media Creation Tool now downloads KB5094126. It is Windows 11 version 25H2, build 26200.8655, which is also available via Windows Update. Note that the app itself remains on the previous version, which you can check in Properties > Details. The only change is that it now downloads a more recent Windows 11 build, so the only way to check is to download an ISO. The June 2026 Patch Tuesday update is a special release for Windows 11, as it brings a new performance profile to make the operating system more responsive and snappier when rendering various user interface surfaces, including the Start menu, quick settings, and more. It does so by spiking processor speeds for a brief moment, resulting in higher loads for a second or two. The so-called “Low latency profile” is rolling out gradually, but you can force-enable it with the ViVeTool app. Other changes include webcam improvements, Task Manager updates, shared audio support, and more. You can download the Media Creation Tool app from the official Microsoft website using this link. Besides MCT, Microsoft lets you download Windows 11 ISO as a file directly from the official Windows 11 website. However, you will need a third-party app to write it to your USB drive. Check out this guide if you want to know how to do that.
