This is a small error that I think only pertains to Firefox. I noticed that when I scroll down the scrollbar the blank space above and below overdraws itself 1 pixel outside making it look kind of funny.

I can live with it, but I'll be your mail order wife if its easy enough to fix. :p

We :heart: you kol

Been using it since day one with no change...

And here is another small one I just added. It under/overdraws when the start menu turns into a second frame.

Im going to take a look later, I want to finish my new theme first.

The other bug, I think I cant fix that.

KoL, please make start button wit changhing text since i have localized version of XP (Russian) and i want that there was written "пуск" but not "start"...

I'll keep this start button. If I make the startbutton to show the word "Start" it will show the xp flag too, and I dont want the theme with that flag. Sorry.

Kol, could you send me the art you used in the WindowsBlinds version for the logoff/shutdown screen? I want to reshack msgina.dll to make my dialogs fit with the theme.

EDIT: Nevermind, took them directly from the WBA file.

I was thinking about create that but I dont know yet.

nice theme... i've been using the black version for a couple of days now, and it's still there... usually i get sick of dark themes in about a day or so...

could use a more polished shellstyle, but other than that it's definitely good... some minor bugs, but nothing major that hinders productivity...

light blue captions take a little getting used to, and i had to change the window background to white... progress bars take some getting used to... my other machine runs the luna elements 3 theme which has just the nicest progress bars... would strongly suggest "ripping these off"...

If I knew how to create a shellstyle that resembles the way it is in Vista, I would do it so people could just replace the shell for the theme. I have done it for the dark themes, but the silver one doesn't look good because the borders for it are black and it looks out of place. Jemaho did a nice job with his version, but I think a few things in the one KoL did are cleaner and more streamlined.

The only disappointment I have with the newer visual styles is that hardly anyone adds the new style shellstyle to them like Jemaho did with his. I prefer having them at the top to give me more window real estate :)

I dont think you'll see one of my themes with top shellstyle. I dont like how it looks. The only theme that I included a top shellstyle was my other port of Longhorn and it wasnt the main shellstyle.

KoL are you planning an update to your VS? or is that it? I'm not complaining, I really like it. With Nvidia transparency and a system tray clock mod, and using iconpackager to do Vista icons, things look really good now.

    • Windoze 11 could finally go to hell, instead of making me savor yet another error I've never had. "Bad Pool Caller" or whatever TF cryptic crap0la message it is. Adding salt to injury, it says something along these lines (on the blank black screen after it hard stops): "Your windoze needs to restart. You can restart." NO WAY SHERLOCK. The PEECEE, look, it's *blocked*, I can do jack sh1t with it as it is and you say that it needs to restart? Further, that I can restart? What am I supposed to do, take a herbal bath? Sudo a sandwich? Timewaster pile of useless slop and errors, coded by monkeys and force-fed on us by a pedo-founded corporation, that's all there is to it. Now, let's have a fun weekend trying to handle the error, which after a quick internet check can basically be due to EVERYTHING, from memory faults to drivers to motherboard issues. Thanks M$.
    • Zen Browser 1.21.3b by Razvan Serea Zen Browser is a privacy-focused, open-source web browser built on Mozilla Firefox, offering users a secure and customizable browsing experience. It emphasizes privacy by blocking trackers, ads, and ensuring your data isn't collected. With Zen Mods, users can enhance their browser experience with various customization options, including features like split views and vertical tabs. The browser is designed for efficiency, providing fast browsing speeds and a lightweight interface. Zen Browser prioritizes user control over the browsing experience, offering a minimal yet powerful alternative to traditional web browsers while keeping your online activity private. Zen Browser’s DRM limitation Zen Browser currently lacks support for DRM-protected content, meaning streaming services like Netflix and HBO Max are inaccessible. This is due to the absence of a Widevine license, which requires significant costs and is financially unfeasible for the developer. Additionally, applying for this license would require Zen to be part of a larger company, similar to Mozilla or Brave. Therefore, DRM-protected media won't be supported in Zen Browser for the foreseeable future. Zen Browser offers features that improve user experience, privacy, and customization: Privacy-Focused: Blocks trackers and minimizes data collection. Automatic Updates: Keeps the browser updated with security patches. Zen Mods: Customizable themes and layouts. Workspaces: Organize tabs into different workspaces. Compact Mode: Maximizes screen space by minimizing UI elements. Zen Glance: Quick website previews. Split Views: View multiple tabs in the same window. Sidebar: Access bookmarks and tools quickly. Vertical Tabs: Manage tabs vertically. Container Tabs: Separate browsing sessions. Fast Profile Switcher: Switch between profiles easily. Tab Folders: Organize tabs into folders. Customizable UI: Personalize browser interface. Security Features: Inherits Firefox’s robust security. Fast Performance: Lightweight and optimized for speed. Zen Mods Customization: Deep customization with mods. Quick Access: Easy access to favorite websites. Open Source: Built on Mozilla Firefox with community collaboration. Community-Driven: Active development and feedback from users. GitHub Repository: Contribute and review the source code. Zen Browser 1.21.3b changelog: New Features Updated to Firefox 152.0.1 Fixes Fixed transparency not working after updating to 1.21.2b (#14259) Fixed frequent crashes affecting users with Intel Raptor Lake processors Fixed an issue on macOS where choosing a PDF option, such as "Save as PDF", from the system print dialog would send the job to your printer instead of saving a file.
