I like the colour, blue rocks more then grey ...

I still love the VS here  :yes:

Let KoL do his work please. Begging for changes just makes it take even longer for it to come out.

If I were you I'd take your time on this. Get the university and job stuff done then start work on this. Those are more important in life. IMO you should also make a few different versions to please all these people wanting these little changes. Or just simply post the images needed for any changes with a guide on how to do it like you have in the past.

Sorry but some people on here beg for releases, then right as he's close to working on it you see screenshots and ask for all these changes. Seriously people it takes time to make these, even though I believe KoL is very fast at doing it. Asking for these changes just makes the whole process longer and some of you people start getting impatient and sometimes angry. When it's YOU that makes the whole process take longer.

Not trying to get an argument started or anything and if I sounded like an ass I apologize. It just gets to me a little when people do this.

If your talkin about what i was saying i was merely sugesting to KoL, because IMO the new 5259 build looks a bit nicer than the previous. And i know Createing a Vs takes ages, trust me i have tried many times, you need skill and patience to do this kind of thing.

also i don't think KoL needs to be told how he should organise his life ;)

I REALLY would like a blue version like the screenie below. I think blue kind of gives it the 'Vista' look, and suits glass better.

By the way... I've edited a version of your visual style (don't worry, won't release it) with the new start menu. Take a look, and tell me what you think? I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do with the new junk in vista! :yes:

P.S.- I know visual styles (good ones, anyways) take ages to get perfect. That start menu alone took me just under two days to make, so go ahead and take your time; get it perfect to your liking, and then release it. ;)

@ Trojan: That's not blue, the windows are transparent and the background is blue. The startmenu looks cool, I'll include that star menu on v3. Just wainting the new msstyle to make make the changes to the WB version and start the msstyle. :D

Actually, it is blue. I have the vista glass PNGs on my HD, and they're light blue and translucent :p . But I know what you mean, all I was saying is that I would like a blue version, that resembled the screenshot.

    • Microsoft hides these secret Windows 11 performance boost settings available on every PC

      I think every American should have a course in a 'dry sense of humour' at school; and perhaps 'using sarcasm in jest' oh, and also 'the use or irony in humour'.
    • Major Xbox layoffs may claim South of Midnight developer Compulsion entirely

      By PeterTHX · Posted

      What they really need to do is automatically spell "loses" and "lose" correctly since nobody seems to know how to anymore. Then they blame spellcheck/autocomplete and don't realize autocomplete is just filling in the word for them automatically so it was misspelled in the first place.
    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation

      By rseiler · Posted

      If someone chooses to continue using SB and therefore goes through the manual intervention in the thread, afterwards the BSOD problem is gone. Whether they then re-enable the task doesn't matter, they're done, though on such machines it might pay to keep it disabled in case the next update (if there is a next) causes the same problem. OTOH, if someone disables SB in the BIOS, the problem is also gone. Incidentally, I noticed that this task exists even on machines that don't support SB. It's just installed across the board...and runs. Doing what on such machines is a little hazy.
