Thanks Winswy.

@ Komplexnous and NemesisNG, could you please dl the file here and give me feedback on the cut startbutton issue, also maybe try different display sizes 800x600 and higher to see if it's still there, thanks.

The start button really is smooth for other people? Wow, NemesisNG and I have something set up that is out of whack, huh!?! LOL :laugh:

The new file has the same problem. I am running WinXP SP2 @ 1280x1024 (60Hz, which doesn't matter on the ol' LCD). I tried other resolutions (and quite a few other things...including using the default Segoe UI as the font), and the problem is still present. Also, yes the problem is only with the thin taskbar substyle. The fat one is perfect (but I would rather have a chopped start button than a fat taskbar ;) ). Thank you for trying to fix this problem, jemaho!!! (Y)

loved the theme, first one i've ever tried, but it was enough to convince me to give alternate "non-default" themes a try.

did a notice a probelm on my end with Pictures folders that use the film strip

the icons are closed off and there's no way to widen it. you're forced to scroll to see all of the icons. i'm using StyleXP if it makes a difference, and i did not install the Styler toolbar. also, turning off the statusbar doesn't make a difference (although it does make the window prettier)

Jem is there any chance of making the start button just a little bit bigger as it looks squashed? ( sorry to say it but KoL's start button is perfect)

Great theme mate, only other thing I'd beg you to do to this is to add the large longhorn folder icon jpegs that appear in the bottom right hand side of the 'My Music' & 'My Pictures' folders etc to the shellstyle.

/me prays you'll consider 'em :)

Hi guys, update is almost finished, it will correct all the bugs that have been reported so far, it will have an Y'z toolbar for those not having Styler, the demanded wallpaper + a new substyle called Milkaero (white borders have given the name) of which I give you now a full preview, comments and feedback on this one are appreciated as I planned to release the update in a few hours.

    • Stack Overflow is launching a version of itself for AI agents by David Uzondu Stack Overflow has announced Stack Overflow for Agents, a platform that traditionally hosts crowdsourced programming solutions for human developers, but now serves autonomous software agents. Basically, Stack Overflow's argument is that the rapid democratization of building software has exposed a major vulnerability. Agents operate in isolation, creating an Ephemeral Intelligence Gap where they waste valuable tokens on something another agent halfway across the world has already solved. That's why, according to the company, a shared, real-time knowledge repository is needed. Stack Overflow for Agents is currently in beta, running as an API-first knowledge exchange where humans review what agents publish. To prevent hallucination issues and keep the database clean, the platform uses a multi-agent verification loop to check code quality. This system forces agents to query the corpus first to locate validated answers rather than running expensive code-generation scripts. To ensure trust, Stack Overflow connects agent contributions directly to the human developer's established reputation through single sign-on credentials. The agents can interact with three distinct post types. One option, Questions, documents unsolved bugs, while "Today I Learned" posts record debugging traces. Blueprints round out the selection by storing reusable design patterns. If an enterprise wants to keep proprietary data private, the Stack Internal platform allows the organization to run the assistant behind its own firewall. Before the massive rise of LLMs, which tanked its traffic by about 50% over the last couple of years, Stack Overflow was the go-to website for millions of programmers seeking coding solutions. Some argue that another reason why the website sort of fell off stems from its notoriously hostile (and condescending) community that frequently closed basic questions and alienated beginners with strict gatekeeping. In order to avoid getting eaten by AI, Stack Overflow has tried several things. When volunteer moderators banned AI-generated content in 2023 to protect data quality, corporate leaders tried to limit those restrictions, prompting the volunteers to stage a massive site-wide strike. Since then, the developer portal has signed major deals with tech companies like Google to bring Stack Overflow data directly into Gemini models and Google Cloud console. A similar deal with OpenAI in 2024 sparked an uproar, leading some users to delete old answers in protest. The company swiftly suspended those accounts to protect the database. It has also experimented with OverflowAI, an AI-powered conversational search tool designed to pull together answers from multiple threads.
    • There are two options for smartphone platforms so consumers don't have much of a choice there. The EU is not making any decisions for customers they just want them to have options if they so choose. I am not sure why you would be for closed platforms. The big tech companies already have so much power and money while are relatively unregulated in the US which is why they run into so much trouble in the EU.
    • Hello, I am using a Moto G Stylus (2025) and happy with it.  I don't know how well the model works on Twigby's network (it looks like they are an MVNO of Verizon).  It looks like they have a BYOD plan, though, so as long as you find a device that works on their network you should be okay.   Regards,   Aryeh Goretsky
