You guys are in for one hell of a surprise. This recolour will take a few days (maybe even a week), but it will sure as hell be worth the wait. Trust me on that :?)

I'd like to but I already have too many ongoing projects to complete to start a new one. I may make one someday, but don't expect it any time soon. :/

I already made a StylerToolbar theme for it (using it now actually) which you can find a preview of here. Ross has the theme and has said that it will be in the next release.

As for the Firefox theme, it's coming along nicely. Still need to figure out a few things, but I hope to finish it later today or tomorrow. :D

I may buy that StylerToolbar actually - looks quite nice. Can you add your own buttons?

One thing normal Explorer misses is a 'New Folder' button on the toolbar (Yes I know its in the shellstyle - but I hate shellstyles). Can you add one with ST?

You can't add your own buttons, but you can reposition/reorganize the buttons by editing a theme's ini file.

Update on the Firefox theme:

I started over because I was using a safari firefox theme as a base and found that that wasn't the look I really wanted (except for the attached back/forward buttons). I started over using Qute as a base, replacing only the toolbar icons.

I had 2 different styles I was going to include with the theme. One with the slightly darker button hover states, and another with blue hover states. Couldn't figure out which one to leave in, but figured out how to leave both. :D

Switching from large <-> small icons will keep the same buttons but switch between hover states (hope that makes sense).

I still have a few more icons to replace, but I should release it by the end of the week.

I like the screenshots but I cannot download it. DA :angry: doesnt seem to let me download the file correctly. All i get is a gif file in the .rar file i dowloaded. Could someone email me the theme so that I can try it out?

Much appreciated and thanks in advance...

WA and Trillian skins are all underway; patience, grasshopper :?)

586241674[/snapback]

you have no idea how happy it makes me to see a beautiful theme like this be rounded out by a full 'scheme' of skins like wa and trillian.

i can't wait for the final release:DD

*wonders how tricky it would be to make a matching bb4win style*

I wasn't going to show you this until the final release, but I see no harm in wetting your appetites.

What I (purposely) failed to mention is that XPMC is actually going to be a VS Suite. Not just colour variations - but multiple style variations, but all following the basic 'ruleset' for design that you see with the XPMC you are using.

The style you see in this preview is XPMC Induztry - a dark theme with black widgets (check the taskbar out for example). I have a PSD prototype for the third variation (XPMC Cell) but you're not seeing that. I may make a fourth, all depends on the timescale, as I'm uber busy.

Each style will have Normal/Compact versions, plus its own colour variations. Oh yes, XPMC v1 will be a beast of a release :?)

Click me.

Before you ask: No, you can't have it (yet):pp

    • Classic Outlook vs New Outlook — Which one do you prefer and why?

      By LittleNeutrino · Posted

      This is a hot take, but I only use "New" Outlook for 1 reason, the "My Day" side bar that shows your tasks and Calendar on "New" Outlook allows you to view shared calendars and not just your personal calendar. On "Classic" Outlook it only allows your personal Calendar. For my job, we have a group shared Calendar that shows appointments and scheduled tasks for the team and we don't really use our personal calendars.  
    • Opera for Android gets redesigned home page with FIFA World Cup tracker

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Opera for Android gets redesigned home page with FIFA World Cup tracker by Taras Buria FIFA World Cup 2026 is kicking off in the United States later this week, and Opera, a popular cross-platform browser, is making it easier to track matches on mobile. Today, Opera announced a redesigned home page for its Android browser. The new home page is now "more immersive" with easier access to common browser features. Users can now customize Speed Dial icons (round, square, or squircle), enjoy a new weather widget with real-time conditions, and open AI Mode or a private session with a single tap. Additionally, the browser now has a built-in football tracker, allowing you to follow your favorite team without using dedicated apps. The tracker displays live scores, notifications, and statistics in a dedicated football hub. You can also check out line-ups, match events, and more. Opera surveyed its users, and 38% of responders said they plan to follow the FIFA World Cup 2026 in a browser. The tournament starts on June 11 and ends on July 19, 2026. "By providing football fans with instant access to live scores alongside a more considered design, we’re ensuring they are never more than a tap away from the action, even when they can't watch live," said Tim Lesnik, Product Manager at Opera Mobile. For Opera users in the United States, Opera runs a contest, offering them a chance to win tickets to a match in Miami in July, Android smartphones, PlayStation 5 consoles, smart TVs, and Amazon Vouchers. Users can participate by posting on social media with the #OperaFandom hashtag from June 12 or by signing up on the official Opera website. Opera will announce winners on July 3. You can download Opera for Android from the Google Play Store using this link.
    • Classic Outlook vs New Outlook — Which one do you prefer and why?

      By TheGhostPhantom · Posted

      That definitely doesn’t match my experience with using Outlook. I use the new Outlook with a local account, connected to a email account, that absolutely isn’t connected to a Microsoft account without an issue.   I used Thunderbird/Firebird once, lost some very precious emails and memories, because of the way it stored emails. Swore I would never use it again, it technically wasn’t the fault of Thunderbird, but an extension but the underlying reason it failed was due to the message format.
