Thank you Kol for this wonderful skin and all the fixes you did! I now use Version 1.4 but I still have this little bug (see attachement). Then I tried the skin ergo vx -> no errors here.

Maybe a sub-style with darker scroll bar (like the compact menu sub-style)? That's my only problem with this skin too...the gripper is just too hard to see.

the scrollbars are almost exactly how they are in Vista, I dont think he'll be changing them.

Yeah I think we get it....it looks like Vista...and after beta testing I'm sure the feedback to MS will be to tweak the scrollbar colors (don't ask me how I'm sure of that)...anyway, that's why I suggested a sub-style. The Vista "purists" can use the hard to see original, and the rest of us can get something a little easier to see.

I was wondering how you get the Vista icons into this theme. I have downloaded them from a different site and added them with IconTweaker, but I was just curious if there was another way people have added them. Also my navigation buttons didn't change (still green) and not blue like in some people's screen shots. And I'd like to add that the scroll buttons are hard to see but considering all the work you've done, and you wanting it to look just like Vista, I won't ask for a change. Great theme

Would be an idea to turn off the glow effect on buttons that is inactive...

Look at the attachment!

that's possible?

I know it's blasphemy, but could someone make a thinner version? Those MS themes are so massive you almost need a 21"LCD ....

Im not going to create a thinner version. Sorry.

I don have any problem running it at my 17" :D

yes the glow on inactive buttons is possible. I've encountered them myself.

No Im not talking about if the glow is possible on the inactive button and talking about removing it. I havent found where, if there is a setting, to remove it.

      By News Staff · Posted

      Get $50 of aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim credit for just $24.97 by Steven Parker Today's highlighted deal comes via our Apps + Software section of the Neowin Deals store, where you can save 50% off aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler Lifetime eSim Credit: Pay $24.97 for $50. Stay connected affordably in 120+ countries/regions with your own lifetime eSIM! An eSIM is a digital SIM card. It's basically just mobile data. Once it's activated on your device, it can connect you to data networks in other countries – giving you an internet connection with NO roaming charges. With aloSIM, you can load prepaid eSIM data packages onto your phone, tablet, or computer. Your lifetime eSIM never expires, so it's yours forever and there are never any monthly charges. You'll get $50 in eSIM data credit, which is almost always enough to cover all your data roaming needs for a full year. But if you run out of data, you can always top up your lifetime eSIM and stay connected internationally. Pay $24.97 for a lifetime eSIM with $50 in travel data credit Use your eSIM to join data networks in 120+ countries Install your lifetime eSIM on a compatible device to roam on local data networks Your lifetime eSIM never expires, and can be topped up with more data anytime Many data packages cost as little as $4.50 and last 7 days. Depending on the package you choose, the length of time varies. Good to know Length of access: lifetime For NEW customers only Instant digital redemption Once you add your $50 credit to your aloSim account you have up to 12-months to use it — after that your credit will expire When you pay for a data plan you also get a free phone number (via Hushed) for the same duration of your plan that was purchased - IE 7 day eSim plan gives you a free 7-day phone number Purchased coupon must be redeemed and used within 12 months This deal is not stackable (one offer per aloSIM account) A $4.50 data package will last 7 days The data DOES expire, and you WILL NOT have any leftover data for your next trip unless it takes place within the validity period. While the eSIM never expires, the actual data package is only valid for the length of time stated at purchase (i.e. seven days after activation, 30 days after activation, etc.) So if you buy a seven-day package and only use a tiny bit, that package is still going to expire after seven days. Access options: mobile (check compatibility) Max number of device(s): 1 Updates included Here's the deal: This aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim $50 Credit normally costs ... $50, but it can be yours for just $24.97 for a limited time, a saving of $25 (50% off).

      WordArt was cool. We now have color fonts as a substitute although Word only supports COLRv0 and COLRv1 (Fraud OS 11 only). The OpenType SVG color font format needs to be supported by Office. Adobe's apps support it
