Yes thats font related. Either use BitStream (Extra Large), or Trebuchet MS (Normal) with Cleartype.

The reason I mention Bit Stream on the main page is because its natively anti-aliased. So many people miss out on nice smooth fonts because all they ever use are Tahoma 8 without ClearType. Not a nice font at all to develop on over a long period of time.

Hey,

I'm in love with this theme :D but I found a bug or rather I've got single start menu and getting the arrow bug. I've got a question for you, do you know that guy who made xpize well I wanna shell pack like that honestly I'd love one of thoses (I want everything to match) this Theme is so smooth.

Limit: That is not controlled by the VS (and hence the current theme); so no.

Romeo: You're using RC1, grab the latest RC2 (link on first post).

Regarding the somewhat random arrow bug - I have no idea how to 'fix' it, because it's fine for me (and many other people).

Spooky: I'll look into that. The actual combo 'button' is not filling the area, so this leads me to believe that KoL has used a hack on actual glyph image itself. I'll download the theme and check ther code out.

I'll check for the luna blue colour also.

Off-theme-topic: Use Eclipse instead of that X-Dev, its better anyway :?)

is this a bug?

Internet Explorer Restore Down

Internet Explorer Maximized

Notice in the maximized one there is a much smaller gap between the bottom of the status bar and the taskbar.

EDIT: Attached screenshot from other page

b0se know the missing button on AVG. We'll there is another one on the updater (to the right of the question mark):-

and if there is a hack on the actual glyph image can that be used on the firefox SSL problem

Thats AVG's button not boses. It uses its own interface.

Neotool, that is being looked into. Nothing I can do about that as Firefox just paints the whole Combo box yellow instead of the *contents* (the set margins). Someone might be making a FF skin to fix this issue (Y)

Only way to fix would be to not use the combobox image (notice combo's cast a small shadow), and use a flat pixel border. If the Firefox theme is released - everybody will be happy (Y)

Limit: Thats not a bug, there are no 'missing' buttons. Those buttons are not enabled, and hence they are not displayed. I *might* add different disabled states for buttons that show just a faint outline.

The status bar sizing (maximised), I'll look into it. Not sure if that can be fixed however. Does it occur on other themes?

who's gonna make a trillian skin?

i would but i'm too busy...

Right now I'm using Gaim but if I go back to Trillian anytime soon I will make one, with b0se's permission of course.

Each to his own - personally I love all the changes, especially the tabs :?)

The start button is centered by the way. it may appear off center due to the taskbar highlight.

586209647[/snapback]

Oh wow, never seen it done like that. That'll take some getting used too.

Is there no chance that the colour of the highlighted items in the taskbar could get darkened? The light blue to white fade doesn't seem to match the overall darker blue motif of the theme.

Windows that are missing the maximize/restore down icon up top have a gap where it should be instead of pushing the minimize/restore up over. Not sure if that was by design or if that's even fixable.

OPaul: I wanted to keep the taskband buttons the same style as the normal buttons - for consistency. I like the way they stand out, and I purposely didn't use the same blue throughout the theme to keep it 'fresh' :?)

(Hence start menu hovers are green)(Y))

Limit: I won't use a greyscale button, I'll change the opacity. Leave it to me :?)

    • 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.
