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

    • I think they still believe it but are realizing that those statements created massive backlash and impacted adoption. I personally think AI, if used regularly will give you back about 30% of your time if you are an “information” worker.
    • I don't have a problem with adverts, I not fond of the tracking. My main problem is when you have to keep clicking close to remove them before you can see anything On the site. The ones that keep updating and moving stuff around as they are different sizes are as bad. Neowin is not too bad with Adverts, but ones that keeps updating or have animation can be distracting when reading something, like the one showing now, about how much should I walk to lose weight. I realise sites need adverts to survive, but stop changing them every few seconds.
    • SQL Server Management Studio 22.7 brings "What's New" page, T-SQL formatting, and lots more by Usama Jawad SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) is the tool of choice for most developers working with SQL infrastructure and data. Microsoft recently released SSMS version 22, and in the past few months, it has been steadily releasing point upgrades to refine the integrated development environment (IDE). Now, it has released SSMS version 22.7.0 with a bunch of new features and interfaces. For starters, SSMS 22.7 has netted a native "What's New" page, which highlights the top features and bug fixes present in the latest release. However, Microsoft says that this page won't annoy you much as it will only show up each time you update SSMS, and once you dismiss it, it won't be shown again to you until the next release. Secondly, Microsoft has finally introduced T-SQL formatting inside SSMS. The good thing about this is that it does not require installing any additional components, as it is built into the native experience. All you have to do is right-click the query editor window and select Format SQL from the context menu. Additionally, you also have several customization options at your disposal, such as the ability to automatically place semicolons at the end of a statement, split clauses across multiple lines, and more. However, this capability is only in preview for now. Additionally, Microsoft has introduced a preview of Agent Mode, which allows the AI model to automatically perform complex workflows on your behalf. Furthermore, Agent Mode will operate in read-only mode by default, so that you don't have to worry about the AI model accidentally deleting your data. On a related note, Microsoft is finally allowing users to configure the execution context of GitHub Copilot. This can be controlled per database using the CONSTITUTION.md file, where you specify the user details for the agentic executor. You can find details about this and additional bugfixes in Microsoft's blog post here.
    • I only use 3 extensions in Zen. I don't need or want a ton of stuff in my browser i don't use.
    • I prefer to choose my own ad bockers, not what the browser seems to think I need. i remember the days when a browser was just that, now they try and be everything and add stuff in that not all of us want. I bet Brave is full of AI rubbish? I will stick with Zen, not perfect, but better than others.
