You are the best KoL. :yes:

Thank You. :beer:

ok....I have a little suggestion if that's ok....I'm using the Silver version ATM and it's great. However when there is a button on the taskbar for example my Firefox on the taskbar right now, the text displaying is also a shade of gray therefore making the text very hard to read...maybe you can change it to another color?

Great update. At last the eye killing blue toolbar backgrounds are gone. :yes:

Yeah I also noticed that. That's what's preventing me from using the silver version.

Awesome! I love it... except this one thing...

...the tabs. I just think they're so ugly. Everything is crisp and clean and then the tabs have ugly gradients :| The selected tab is crisp and clean but the others in the background just look silly :p

I hope people agree with me on this :whistle:

I just realised it could only affect the grey text version..?

Thanks :)

much better....if you can make it stand out just a TAD bit more, it would be perfect..thanks for the work kol

I uploaded a little update.

Silver version, context menu (launch bar menu or, Windows Explorer right click on a file): the text is rather light, this give the impression like all menu items are disabled.

Can you make the text darker? How about making it black?

I dont think Im going to change that, sorry. I like it that way. You can tell the difference, is not the same color.

You can change it yourself. Right click on the desktop, then click properties. Go to Appearance and click Advanced button.

Then on Item Combo Box click Menu and change the color on Color.

Good Job... A few things:

- This theme needs a better shellstyle. A longhornish horizontal shellstyle would be great.

- Right now it seems like the Windows Explorer Menus doesn't fit at all with the theme when the black theme is selected... They need to have a background. Silver version is fine.

Hi KoL,

Excellent VS. Very usable.

Apologize if you have already addressed this, but would you be working toward a fix for the minimise-close buttons in Photoshop CS2? :)

I cant fix. I assign nagative values to the caption buttons to create it the way they are. If I fix that I'll mess up the caption buttons

Keeps getting better and better kol.

Thanks for your great work.

The only glitch I can find is the status bar under and overdraws, I captured it on an installation, its noticeable in nero on the burning status bars as well.

Yeah I know that. let me see what I can do.

And I'm sorry again...

the buttons in opera... is it a bug or a feature ;)  :p

I dont see anything wrong. :huh:

KoL, I don't know if you have Microsoft Office 2003, but check out MS Word with your visual style... everything is gray. It isn't really usable that way.

I'll post a screenshot tonight when I get home from work.

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.

    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.
    • Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
