Thanks for the feedback (Y)

Spooky, thanks for the bug report, but:

Bit of a pointless comment considering this is the RC1 release, in which I released deliberately to find bugs :?)

Where can I get that application? It seems that the erroneous buttons are because it can't seem to handle them being PNG format.

The combo because are because of the way the app renders them. I'll be trying a technique that sort this out while keeping the style.

Sorry about that comment. The application is called X-Develop, and you can get it from http://www.omnicore.com/. Shouldn't you be using JPG or BMP (or whatever Luna has)? What about the firefox combo boxes? If I remeber right, you didn't care about the Mozilla products when I asked you to fix OpusOs and Codename: Opus because you didn't use them. But now, Firefox has 10% of the marketshare.

So what if firefox has 10% if b0se doesn't want to fix it then he won't. If it bothers you that much fix it yourself.

Preview of RC2:

i know it can be fixed via tinkering with opera skins, because some display it properly and some don't, but since it only happens on the 'native' skins, i figured there was something you could do with the msstyle that would change this.

any way to get the address bar area to display as solid white, instead of white with the tan border? i tried searching through the msstyle for the exact color (227,223,206) but everything that i turned to 'white' messed with the rest of the theme in bad, bad ways :(

Yes, of course. Like I said, I only used Opera because it renders combo's properly. I will more than likely change the combo box style to suite Firefox this time around though.

Firefox and et al support native windows themes. It's just that they may assume some values (some pixel size, file types). Some themes that use the Luna values and change everthing, are displayed right. Kol's Luna mods are displayed right, for example. Even MS Office 2003 has problems with combos when b0se's themes are running.

b0se, if you manage to make X-Develop display right, XPM should work with any app. If you choose to test it with X-Develop, you have to restart the app each time you make a change, or it won't update.

This theme is quite fast, usable and is much nicer looking on your system than it looks in the screenshots. This is what the classic mode should look like in LH, for example.

Anyway, i'm very happy with it, it's faster than alot of themes that are "trendier" and it is more usable. Alot of themes are great the first week, but their bugs and general weirdness really annoy after a while.

This complements the default icons and feel of XP very well. I would like to say that the fonts are a little on the small side at 1280 x 1024.

No other themer listens to the feedback as much as I do, and I do not appreciate that sort of comment. I think anyone on this forum will agree also. The fact I've been a keen user of Firefox since its inception just goes to show what you actually (think you) know.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • I do trust Apple probably more than these other companies with certain data, but I also do think (and it has been demonstrated that) Apple pulls a lot of shenanigans and always has for a long time.
    • Does your iPhone support the latest iOS version? Here's the iOS 27 compatibility list by Aditya Tiwari It's that time of year when we get to know about the latest operating system updates for Apple devices. For iPhone, Apple previewed the iOS 27 update at WWDC 2026, where the company finally introduced an upgraded version of Siri. Apple typically supports iPhone models for up to five years. But it has been making exceptions in recent years (read iPhone 11). If you're wondering whether your iPhone is compatible with the iOS 27 update, here is the official list of devices: iPhone 17 Pro Max, iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17, iPhone 17e, iPhone Air iPhone 16 Pro Max, iPhone 16 Pro, iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16e iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 iPhone 14 Pro Max, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 14 Plus, iPhone 14 iPhone 13 Pro Max, iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 mini iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini iPhone 11 Pro Max, iPhone 11 Pro, iPhone 11 iPhone SE (2nd generation), iPhone SE (3rd generation) So, you can download the iOS 27 developer beta on up to 31 different iPhone models. There has been no change to the list of supported iPhones since iOS 26. However, it will expand to include more devices when the iPhone 18 series arrives later this year. To download the developer beta on your iPhone, go to Settings > General > Software Update > Beta Updates. Here, select "iOS 27 Developer Beta" from the list of choices to get the new update. In addition to iOS 27, you can try the developer beta versions of macOS 27, iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, tvOS 27, and HomePod software 27 on your supported devices. iOS 27 comes with improved Liquid Glass, which you can adjust using a new transparency slider. Apple said during the keynote that iPhone apps now launch up to 30% faster, new photos appear in the Photos app up to 70% faster, and AirDrop transfers work up to 80% faster. The new update promises to improve performance on older iPhones by introducing a new CPU Scheduler that supports devices all the way back to the iPhone 11. While iOS 27 is supported on older iPhones, it goes without saying that they'll lack several features due to hardware differences. For instance, iPhone 14/14 Plus and older models come with a notch instead of the Dynamic Island. Similarly, Apple Intelligence features are supported on iPhone 15 Pro/Pro Max and later models.
    • The Radeon RX 9070 XT is right up there with the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti
    • I don't know why someone said useless, but it does have that pesky kernel driver bundled, and it's in perennial turmoil. When it goes bad, it goes very bad, and it's impossible to predict when it will due to system differences. I know that they're in the middle of development for a major new version that will include a completely new driver, one that they expect will largely solve the problem, but that's a ways out and it's unproven at this point.
