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:

    • Playground Games confirms Forza Horizon 6 save wipe bug by Taras Buria Forza Horizon 6 was launched last month to critical acclaim (check out our review here), and it became a smash hit in an instant. Now, weeks into the launch, with die-hard fans clocking hundreds of hours, Forza Horizon 6 is facing a serious issue: save wipes. After multiple complaints on Reddit and social media, the studio issued a statement. The problem with missing saves came shortly after Playground Games promised the initial batch of gameplay tweaks and improvements. Unfortunately, there seems to be no temporary fixes for those affected by unexpected save wipes. However, the studio published a new support document with a few important steps users should try. First, affected gamers should open a support ticket immediately (go here to file one) so that the support team can try recovering the lost progress by reverting to an earlier save. Playground Games says this should be done the same day the issue occurs. Meanwhile, gamers are urged not to start new play sessions or create new saves. The studio also published a few things gamers should try to avoid to prevent potential progress loss: Ensure your Gaming Services app on PC or XBOX Series X|S console is fully up to date. On XBOX Series X|S consoles, disable Quick Resume for Forza Horizon 6: To disable Forza Horizon 6 from using Quick Resume, highlight the game box art anywhere in the console experience (Home, My Games & Apps, Pins, etc) and then press the Menu button, then go to Manage game and add-ons > Quick Resume settings > Disable Quick Resume. Ensure you are online when ‘quitting’ the game. Give your saved time to sync to the cloud before powering off or switching devices. Do not force quit the game during save screens. Do not power off the device during gameplay. Always "Quit" (console) or "Exit to desktop" (PC) once you've finished your play session, ensuring the save icon is not visible when you’re closing the game. Before turning off your console, shutting down your PC, or force-closing the Steam app, give your devices or clients at least a few minutes to ensure your latest progress has been synchronized with the cloud. This will reduce the risk of progress reversions as you switch between different platforms. XBOX Series X|S consoles, Steam, and the XBOX app on PC all include game save indicators that confirm your progress has been synced. You can read more about the bug in the official support document here. Forza Horizon 6 is currently available on PC (Steam and the Microsoft Store), Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass. The game is also coming to PlayStation 5 later this year.
    • If only Windows would have a toggle switch labeled "Get the latest updates as soon as possible" inside Windows Update settings... But nah, let's hide the new stuff inside a controlled feature rollout, even if the user is explicitly asking for the new stuff as soon as possible. Awesome idea!
    • After watching the Apple event earlier this week it is quite the contrast. Apple is going back and tweaking the code to make things more efficient in many areas of MacOS. Windows is boosting your electric build to hide their issues.
