This came out of nowhere. I was looking for a new theme for my computer cause I was like "I've been using Element for TOO long now. What do I see? Element 3. Well I guess I'm back to Element for the next month or two.

I do like the new scrollbars more than the old version. These fit in much better with the theme.

On a slight usability issue though, on previous versions, I could move my mouse to the top of the screen and access the quicklaunch buttons (I have my taskbar on top, but this issue also affects taskbars on bottom as far as I can tell). I didn't need to think about how high I moved the cursor, because the top of the buttons touched the top of the screen, so I could just bump my mouse as far up as it would go, and select my button.

You increased the height of the taskbar, and I suspect this affected the position of the buttons, because now they no longer touch the top of the screen, and I actually have to aim for them rather than slam my cursor against the top of the screen. If its possible, could you change this behavior to the way it was before?

Wow, I kind of feel guilty downloading such quality work for free...just a really nice, usable theme. (Y)

But you have to admit, a better shellstyle (the one included doesn't even match) would complete it...even if you don't care about shellstyles, a good one would complete the theme. :yes:

As you can see, Dazzla's integrates so much better.

All in all, excellent work! My favorite part of this update is the 2px taskbar increase on the compact style. It's not too big not too small..I just can't use the big fat one. Thanks em3! (Y)

This Luna mod is just great. I was using the Windowblinds ported version for some time, so I skipped LE2 completely.

Since no one's porting this to WB, I decided to use Skinstudio to make a quick conversion and change a few things in the skin (mostly text and colour related), and turned on the HSL colouring... and this is what I got.

About that problem with the titlebar buttons not aligning to the line drawn by the gloss in the titlebar, that problem is easily remediated in Skinstudio. See for yourself:

Hey,

I've got an error (as with LE2) I've got SP2 and I used the Newowin patcher 4.0 JUST to use this theme. But er ....well I'll let the picture explain. :D Oh and Thanx you for the person who mad the Logon/off/shutdown boxes for these theme and for the Logo Dazzle and for the shell.dll ...this looks perfect now it should of been this way from the start.

    • Yeah, when I saw that, I wanted to find the nearest nose. You can't find a good nose these days when you need one.
    • Anthropic launches Claude Fable 5, a state-of-the-art AI model that beats OpenAI's GPT-5.5 by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in April, Anthropic announced Claude Mythos Preview, a frontier model with state-of-the-art coding capabilities. Due to the cybersecurity implications that would occur due to the availability of such a powerful model, Anthropic made it available to only a select set of companies around the world. The company's plan was to prepare appropriate guardrails before releasing such a powerful model to everyone. Now, after nearly two months, Anthropic announced Claude Fable 5, its most capable AI model yet for general users. The company also announced Claude Mythos 5, the same underlying model as Fable 5, but with safeguards lifted, making it more suitable for selected cybersecurity and biology use cases. Claude Fable 5 sits a tier above its Opus models and it beats most other generally available models across areas including software engineering, knowledge work, vision, scientific research, and long-running autonomous tasks. To prevent model misuse, when Claude Fable 5 detects certain requests related to cybersecurity, biology, chemistry, or model distillation, the request will be routed to the Claude Opus 4.8 model. Anthropic claims that these safeguards trigger in less than 5% of sessions on average. However, for large organizations working on critical software, Claude Mythos 5 can be availed through Project Glasswing. Later, Anthropic has plans to expand access through a broader trusted access program. As you can notice in the benchmarks above, Fable 5 and Mythos 5 are state-of-the-art on most key AI benchmarks and they are well ahead of OpenAI's frontier model, GPT-5.5. For example, Fable 5 is the new state-of-the-art model for vision tasks. Also, Mythos 5 has the strongest cybersecurity capabilities of any model in the world. Claude Fable 5 and Claude Mythos 5 are priced at $10 per million input tokens and $50 per million output tokens, which is less than half the price of Claude Mythos Preview. Another big change is that Anthropic is making a change to the way they handle business customer data for both Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models. The company will now require 30-day retention for all traffic on both first- and third-party surfaces. Anthropic promises that it won't use the data to train Claude models, instead it will use it against complex and novel attacks. Claude Fable 5 is available today on the Claude API and consumption-based Enterprise plans. It is also included at no extra cost for Pro, Max, Team, and seat-based Enterprise customers from today through June 22. After that, users on those plans will need usage credits to continue using Fable 5, unless Anthropic extends the included access window based on capacity. Developers can access Fable 5 through the Claude API using the claude-fable-5 model name.
    • Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion to bring snowy region, new updates also coming by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Capcom had a surprise waiting for Dragon's Dogma fans today in the Nintendo Direct presentation. The company revealed an expansion for the second installment with a name that should be familiar to series veterans. Coming later this year, Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen is promising a massive new region to explore, new monsters, fresh skills to learn, and more. The studio says players will be heading to the Northern region of the world, named Norgan, to find new secrets about an undying "Fallen Dragon." There will be forgotten relics that the protagonist can find to unlock fresh weapons and skills the expansion is introducing. Players will also be able to find mysterious equipment from a previous Arisen as a part of the expansion, all part of 12 Lost Rites Dungeon Challenges they must complete to gain access. In Neowin's own review, I found Dragon's Dogma 2 to be an impressive RPG when it launched back in 2024, giving the title an 8.5/10 for its class variants, companion system, and immersive exploration. "Once a prosperous region of the kingdom of Vermund, it was abandoned many years ago for reasons unknown," says Capcom about the new region. "Long has it been since any soul traveled its paths. Blanketed in heavy snow, these frigid lands are home to savage hordes and creatures of unbelievable power. Those who are capable of vanquishing such fearsome foes, or those who possess a keen eye for exploration, will find themselves rewarded with powerful relics." Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion launches on October 9, 2026, with a $29.99 price tag. Ahead of the expansion release, Capcom is also planning to release two free updates to the base game. The first will land tomorrow, June 10, bringing more accessible fast travel with an Eternal Ferrystone and other quality-of-life adjustments. The second update will land sometime in August, aiming to improve frame rates, add more save slots, and bring even more community-requested adjustments. This expanded Dark Arisen edition is also launching on the Nintendo Switch 2 on the same day the content comes to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
