I would love if someone could send me the msstyle version and any other graphic related file of the PDC build. That way I can make an accurate uodate of the theme. I think the PDC version use other scroolbar image. Now the people that keep posting about the scrollbar will be happy.

Hi great style, I have been using it for a while now. I am wondering if you plan make a version with the new start/logo button. https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?act=...158&t=372677&s=?

Ok then. Do you not like it? I kind of like it, it's a bit different though.

edit. The colour is a bit off, if I was to do it I would change the blue to a......... don't know something else and not dull the flag colours.

Is not that I dont like it, It looks cool but take a look at my post here https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?show...#entry586531646

Ive seen this thread. A start button like this one is not very usable in XP, You need to create a bigger taskbar with the top part transparent to be able to create a startbutton like that plus when you maximize a windows it wont cover the part trasparent part of the taskbar. And Im not really sure if that I told you is possible hehe, I've never try it.

Ok. Thats a shame. I didn't get to page 4 so I missed your post.

It looks ok when flush with the top of the bar, if you excuse my photoshopping.

not yet, I'll wait until the Vista PDC version get released to see if the theme need updates. I havent see anything new in the screenshots. Maybe I'll change the name Longhorn "5203" to something VistaXP or XPVista.

Hey thanks for the reply Kol. (Y) I really like your work on this. :) Maybe you cold include the total package where the logon and off screens are changed too. Just a thought.

I'm using another version at the moment only cause I like certain aspects yours is missing. But I think your version works a lot better.

The new release looks great! Nice work Kol! Some of the problems I've encountered with 1.5 are fixed. :)

Too bad the scrollbar problem is still there with Firefox. I know it's not the theme's fault because upon closer inspection and comparison with other browsers, it would seem that Firefox displays it differently. :s

    • 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
