I think I will add it back. It is pretty easy to remove it if you don't want it. Just remove the welcome screen in user accounts on the control panel.

And also. I started working a little bit on the black version. After using it a while it got pretty depressing though :p

Black is kind of a depressing color, but if you want to be the hippest guy in the screenshot thread black is the way to go ;)

Or if you're a goth kiddie you'd love black as well..

Personally I would try out black for a while (as it is nice with different colour schemes for variation) but I would not stick with it ;)

Bring back the old PROGRESS BAR!

and no i don't think the userimage is that important.  :whistle:

The new progress bar really detracts from the smoothness this vs once had. It now looks like the progress bar on thousands of other vs's. Pretty common, and not very "smooth". This is still a nice vs if you stick with version 2.5x. JMO

yeah em3, i've been 110% supportive of the quality of this theme up until the new progress bar which is sort of distracting now because when i run opera, the text on top of the progress bar makes it all jumbled and not as aesthetically pleasing anymore...i can live with it, not that major either but this is IMO as well...

i was wondering, is there anyone out there without this "java" issue? if so, speak now, this could be like a pin point problem only affecting certain users...so if u dont experience the problem, are you running win pro or home, or any other?

I have the problem. Windows XP Pro, Java 1.5.0. When I launch most Java2 apps, I get a crash and an error pointing to not being able to get information on the progress bar size. If you can fix it, cool. If not, I understand.

I love Luna Element.

Another vote here for the old progress bar. It's more accurate and aesthetically pleasing than this new one. And if you made a black version of this VS, I would probably never, ever, ever, in a gazillion years change my VS (as long as I have XP :D ). This VS is the only one that I have been satisfied with for more than a few weeks. The others just got boring after a few days and I never got to changing them.

Stop giving me crap for the new progressbar people. :( Many of you where complaining about the old one to when I introduced it. When I first posted the screenshot of the new one everyone was impressed and thought it looked good. I like it myself and I'm not changing back because imo the old one sucks.

I appreciate everyones oppinion and comments about everything regarding the theme, but I am the designer here. :)

Hey em3,

Well by george...as you know per our PM discussions, I could not get the Java Control Panel buttons to properly show up with LE2 or LE3...even the latest version 3.05...As I too just formatted my system (WinXP SP2 yesterday), and tried every combination of Java-Sun with a combination of various 'uxtheme.dll patches...no success

But I just D/L the 'Luna.msstyle test' and to my pleasent surprise the Java Control Panel Buttons now display properly...:) Thanks again for your dedicated, hard work on a very pleasing VS...

:cool: ;)

I liked the new progress bar, it looks very good here in Firefox, and many other stuff.

Unfortunately, my BitTorrent stays ugly with this new progress bar, as there is written text above it, and in the previous bar it stayed excellent. I always loved the old bar, and I didn't ask you to change it to a new one, just fix the old bug, that used to be fixed in LunaElement2

      Still 3x what it should cost. So, it seems the trick is to increase price by 6x so that a reduction in price back to 4x looks like a steal. "You savvy shoppers win again!" I'm glad I'm not in a desperate spot to actually even need this overpriced crap. Hopefully, it comes back down by the time for when (or if) I ever do.

      Although AI is great and has it's use cases they likely have massively overhyped it and it has not delivered as per their expectations. I fully expect them to start saying the same things again when it does get to a certain level of intelligence!
    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
