I "may" have fixed your menu arrow bug animaniac.

And I can make the items closer, but I just dont think it looks right, because the highlight will just miss the top and bottom of full 16 pixel icons.

Like this:

Ohhh, that's much better. But you're right, it's cutting it close, is there any middle ground?

Edit: I'm running on 1400x1050, maybe that is the cause?

Does 4.3 fix the other "issue" (it's not really a bug...) of too much spacing in the taskbar? See attachment.

I'll fix that for next build I guess, though mine doesnt cut off that much text :blink: Maybe it is your wierd res causing the problems, I run it at 1024x768, and I also checked 800x600, which also seems to be fine. At higher res' everything gets squished looking, but thats prolly cause my 17" monitor isnt meant to use that res :) So did it fix the arrow bug?

I'm running 1400 * 1050 on 14.1" FP ~_~ It's actually very nice, clean and crisp. ^_^

As to the arrow issue... yes and no... :pinch:

binary... you working on a shellstyle.dll file? i really hope one comes out soon. were there any screenshots of the whistler shellstyle? was it even at that stage then?

The shellstyle of 2419 was the same as included, I was going to just go with that, but I will change them if I get some ideas as to how they should look. I have an idea, I might include it in another build.

Chris

I'm guessing because I don't have a patched .dll that allows me to load unsigned visual styles?

that would be why.

:)

Chris

not to be rude, but are you serious?! Search the forum!, details about patching the XP themeing engine are everywhere! Oh and theres always tgtsoft.com if you want to pay. :)

Chris

billo3121 your skin doesn't show up on trillian's site, have you uploaded it yet? And any chance you'll link to it once its done? I've been waiting for one of these for a verrrry long time :) I tried editing the bitmaps myself but apparently I'm completely inept.

Also I've tried searching and have only found a matching winamp 3 skin (for ergonomic) but only have found winamp 2 skins for the other colors, does anyone know of/have a winamp 2 ergonomic skin?

    • Just pull a 4Chan and ignore the UK gov, or better troll them. It's not like they can enforce the fine across border.
    • It has NEVER been shown that all these overreaching creepy methods of surveillance have ever saved a child or prevented a terrorist attack. Not a single one. It's the kind of people like you who just wave it away as "paranoid conspiracy" that makes big tech and governments this creepy mass data hoarding entities. Not only that, 3/4 of these surveillance ideas undermine the very foundations of safe online communication because they always want to have a backdoor in everything "just in case" they might need it to... checks the notes "save the children". If you put a backdoor into encryption chain there is no encryption chain anymore. You know what encryption keeps safe? Your medical records, your online shopping and credit card during payment, your photos in the cloud, your emails, your passwords, everything. There is ZERO guarantee only the good guys will use it. And if you think police suddenly can't apprehend child abusers because of encryption, Epstein was running his entire sex trafficking ring using GMail which is not even encrypted end to end. Or to make matters even worse, USA has a **** and a good buddy of Epstein as a president. Absolutely NOTHING has been done to address it. Maxwell just got a better "hotel" room as a reward. This clearly shows how they absolutely don't really care about the children but they care about the absolute control over all of us. And you're defending them here. Good grief. On top of constant attempts to insert backdoors into encryption chain, the entire age verification nonsense is again entirely over reaching, creepy, invades everyone's privacy with premise of yet again "protecting the children" instead of demanding device makers to provide simple and powerful tools for PARENTS to control how their children use devices and what they do on them. THIS would be the way, not the stupid age verification for everyone. Imagine if government would be dictating companies how their phones work and not the company's IT department. The parents should be the IT department to their children. And for everyone excusing "they are not knowledgeable enough" buuuuuulsheat. We live in a digital age, if you have children now, you absolutely are well versed in digital everything at least to basic extent. If you're not, how do you even function in these times then? Reality is that parents are just lazy and don't want to deal with this. They want government to raise their kids because they are too busy scrolling stupid Instagram and Tiktok or some bs.
    • You could make the argument that K should not be included, but FC, the fried chicken, is not the framework, it's the product. It's the Paint in Paint.NET. A closer analogy is if KFC included the name of the deep fryer they used. HennyPennyFC.

    • Apple is expanding Private Cloud Compute beyond its own data centers by Pradeep Viswanathan At WWDC 2026, as part of the improved Apple Intelligence capabilities, Apple today announced that it is expanding Private Cloud Compute (PCC), its privacy-focused cloud infrastructure for Apple Intelligence, beyond its own data centers for the first time. Private Cloud Compute was designed to handle Apple Intelligence requests that are too complex to run fully on-device. The PCC system does not store user data and does not allow Apple or anyone else to access user requests. Last year, Apple also expanded its Security Bounty program with rewards of up to $1 million for researchers who could find serious vulnerabilities in PCC. Until now, Apple's PCC data centers were using Apple's own silicon. As part of the expansion, Apple is working with Google and NVIDIA to run new Apple Intelligence workloads on Google Cloud systems powered by NVIDIA GPUs. Apple will be using this new infrastructure to execute more demanding AI tasks while maintaining the same privacy and security guarantees of PCC. The new implementation uses NVIDIA Confidential Computing with NVIDIA GPUs, Intel CPUs with TDX, and Google’s Titan chip. Apple says it has worked with Google to build additional protections beyond a traditional confidential computing deployment. Despite the expansion to third-party data centers, Apple claims that its core PCC requirements remain unchanged, including stateless computation, no privileged runtime access, non-targetability, and verifiable transparency. The company highlighted that it will continue to control the PCC software stack, and Apple devices will only trust PCC software that has been cryptographically approved by Apple. To take security to the next level, Apple mentioned that it is maintaining an append-only ledger of Google Cloud hardware that is part of the PCC fleet. The company claims this will help reduce the risk of supply chain attacks. In addition to AI infrastructure, Apple also worked with Google to use technologies behind the Gemini family of models to build the next generation of Apple Foundation Models to power Apple Intelligence features across on-device and cloud workloads. As expected, for more demanding AI tasks like agentic tool use and complex reasoning, Apple will rely on the expanded PCC infrastructure running on Google Cloud. The expansion of PCC on Google Cloud will gradually ramp toward the full set of protections during the summer preview period. As before, Apple will also publish binaries for public inspection, provide research tooling, and give researchers access to live PCC nodes in research mode through the Apple Security Bounty Program.
