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.

Yes, each button has the Overlay Image last entry at the bottom of the buttons.

This skin is awesome - love it love it love it. Looks great on my 17" as well :D.

The only suggestion I have currently is to make the start menu transparent (something like Anai VS for WB) or make a sub-style for it. I was using that prior to this but it had a few bugs. I've yet to find fault in this skin however. It's definetely a keeper for me!

Keep up the great work

I'm playing around a little bit with SkinStudio to modify the theme for myself - I hope you don't have a problem with that KoL :)

Got so far:

Only one Problem..if I maximize a window it maximizes a little to much..

The borders are completly out of the screen and it seems that like 2-4 pixels of the window maximize behind the taskbar.

How can I fix that? :/

One thing, Could you make it so that the scroll bars on the side of windows are a bit more.. Visable?

I have trouble seeing them on my laptop screen. If it would be something more like:

Thats the skin I have to use so I can see the bar properly.

Its just too light

Fixed for version 1.5

- Fixed disable titlebar glow.

- Fixed borders problem.

- New classic start button.

Im going to work with more update this weekend.

Im going to keep the toolbar the way they are until I see changes of scroolbar on Vista build. My scrollbar are almost identical to the ones on Vista and I like it this way. I dont know how many time I have said this.

Oh, you probably said this a zillion times. :) But it's a matter of fact, Vista or not, that they are too bright in their unselected state. Do you want an accurate vs or a usable? I would prefer the usable. But it's your vs...

I prefer accurte and usable. I've been using this theme since I started it and I dont have any problem with the scrollbar. I see them perfectly fine on my laptop and on my desktop.

St00pid Question...

Is there an advatage of the WB version over the MSStyle?  Which is better?  Either have an advantage over the other...?

You have glow titlebar buttons, logoff windows skinnes, bigborders, menus skinned.

there are some problem viewing words on certain programs like ares lite and hamachi. The options appear as white and the background is white so no words cna be seen. It's pretty hard to navigate around like that. Hope that u know what i'm talking about.

-----------

- Visual Style name changed to VistaXP.

- Fixed disable titlebar glow.

I think the problem is the program not the skin.

    • If you can't spell a simple word that 2nd graders learn, your entire argument is suspect.
    • And here goes the "Won't someone think of the children" brigade. Get stuffed mate. This has NOTHING to do with making the internet safe. It's about tracking adults, spying on your online activity, and sending the boys around when they don't like something you post. Also, again, parliament have voted TWICE against this, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. THAT is anti-democratic bullsh**. They will use this law to track you, they will use this law to control you, and they will use this law to punish you if they don't like what you do, even if it's legal. And your data? Say bye bye to that. It'll be on the darkweb in weeks. I'm not some rando online. I've been an IT professional for 40 years, many of it in security. I know exactly what this means and what will happen to your data. I do not consent and I will not comply.
    • "...but it may not be Microsoft's fault" seems like a reasonable way to tease what is going on without leaving the user with a false impression that an update is the problem. A title isn't a summery, it is meant to entice the user to read the article. It should not contain a misleading premise; which this title does not. You could maybe complain that the first paragraph should have included that detail. The writing style popularized over 100 years ago in newspapers will cover the most important information as soon as possible with details and nuance added later; the idea being that with each new paragraph you have less of the reader's focus.
    • Samsung Galaxy XR arrives in the UK with new AI and enterprise features by Fiza Ali Samsung is bringing its Galaxy XR headset to the UK several months after the device made its debut as the first headset built on Google's Android XR platform. The headset was first teased in late 2024 alongside Google's introduction of Android XR before making its commercial debut in 2025. Developed in collaboration with Google and Qualcomm, Galaxy XR combines mixed reality experiences with Gemini-powered AI features, allowing users to interact with digital content using voice, gestures, and visual inputs. While the hardware itself remains largely unchanged from the version Samsung unveiled last year, the company is using the UK launch to spotlight several software enhancements that have arrived through recent updates. Among the most notable additions is deeper integration with Google's ecosystem. Galaxy XR users can explore destinations through Google Maps' Immersive View, receiving AI-powered recommendations and contextual information from Gemini while navigating virtual environments. Furthermore, entertainment experiences have also expanded; users can watch 180-degree and 360-degree videos on YouTube, browse spatial content converted into 3D, and ask Gemini questions about on-screen content without interrupting playback. Samsung is also highlighting mixed-reality features such as Circle to Search, which allows users to identify real-world objects through hand gestures while using the headset's video pass-through mode. Another feature automatically converts photos and videos into spatial 3D experiences. Moreover, the headset now also supports Android Enterprise, allowing organisations to manage deployments using existing Android management tools. Annika Bizon, Vice President, Product and Marketing, Mobile Experience, Samsung UK & Ireland, talked about the device, stating: The headset is powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon XR2+ Gen 2 platform and features dual 4K Micro-OLED displays. The tech giant says that users can expect up to 2.5 hours of battery life. Samsung also confirmed that Galaxy XR will continue receiving software and security updates as the company works alongside Google and Qualcomm to expand the Android XR ecosystem. Galaxy XR is now available for pre-order and will go on sale on 8 July. Customers interested in trying the headset before launch can visit Samsung KX in London and selected Samsung Experience Stores from 17 June. Finally, the company will also host a livestream on 19 June showcasing the headset's capabilities and answering questions from prospective customers.
