Gosh I Loveeeeeeee this theme. I just miss the old Start Button so I stick with the old one...

/me wonders if he is allowed to hack the old start button into the new one for personal use

Read some pages back and you'll see the area where he posted the original white flag start button along with the new round start button and how to add it to the visual style. It's not very hard really. I thought it would be and felt stupid seeing how easy it is lol.

KoL is good on helping people out like that

I cant create that startbutton. I cant make the startbutton bigger than the taskbar.

I've seen a screenshot of a desktop with the button bigger than the taskbar.

I've asked the person about it, so I'm expecting an answer soon.

I used ObjectDock in that screemshot, which you can find at stardock.com.

Well I think its possible if you make the taskbar bigger and make some of the top pixel transparent with magic pink. That way you can have the effect that the startbutton is bigger than the taskbar. I dont think it will look goo becasue when windows are maximized and when you click the startmenu you will always have a transparent area above the taskbar.

Im just speculating, Ive never try that before.

I dont want that button in the themes for now. That's why I released the PNGs separated. I can make the PNG and you can import it using SkinStudio but you'll need to wait becasue right now Im working with university stuff that I really have to finish.

*****Warning!***** This is only for n00bs at changing the start button! No offense KoL, but your guide on how to change the start button wasn't to great. If you download LClock then click on LClock properties. Then click on the tooltip saying "Other" and right there, on the first line it asks if you want to change the startbutton bitmap. Make sure you have the startbutton saved as a .bmp. Then, click on the "..." button for browsing around, find your alt. start button, and whala! Your start button has changed!

a more of a white title bar, maybe even make the toolbar like that as well, i just love these shots of vista :woot: , the new shellstyle and caption buttons make it look very slick.

Hi Kol, I got WB5 just to use your skin :D It's AWSOME! but still buggy. I as wondering if you're taking feedback with things that are having problems?

If you are I'm having problems with a couple of programs, 1 being Bit-Torrent. Take a look at the progressbar. The numbers are not supposed to be there, also the bar will very frequently go pink then back to black,would this happen to be because of the flash streak thing you're using in the Windows progressbars? is it something that can be fix?

    • 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
