Really hard? That is a good start button! I've been using the black style for a few days now, hunting for bugs and it's a surprisingly clean and usable theme. One of the very few black themes that work.

I couldn't agree more! This start button is amazing! Very very beautiful!

This theme will blow people's minds for quite some time until Vista is released. I don't think we need more themes after this (I mean that we don't need other people's, but of course we could use more of em3's work in the future :))

Thanks Dazzla, welcome back. :D Haven't seen you for a while.

Good to have you in em3's topics Dazzla, very good :)

^ Yea. It can't be fixed without destroying the Vista look. So I desided to keep the Vista look and ignore the bugs.

Another thing, any chance of mousedowns on the vertical and horizontal trackbars?

I know I'm being a bit picky, but this has the potential to be one of the best themes ever released for XP. Stylish, usable, bug free.

I'd rather have a theme without bugs, even if this means making it a bit less beautiful. I agree with Dazzla, I want to have a bug free theme.

If you want me to make the progressbar bug free the only thing that would be acceptable to me is blockstyle.

My opinion: the smooth progressbars are better, even though there's the bug of having a small part of it show.

One thing I wondered for a long time: in the default XP Luna VS, it is possible to have BOTH types of progress bars - smooth and sectioned. It's up to the programmers to decide which style to use.

I haven't seen a VS so far that uses both styles. Well if LE4 could implement this, then great. :yes:

Oh and thanks for correcting that toolbar separator bug. :cool:

After this is finished, you should consider doing a WindowBlind skin complete with all the LE styles up to this point. Your prolly capable of alot more than what the limited msstyles engine can let you show.

Any chance of the color change in the start menu I suggested a few pages back?

Well, I came up with an alternative. Let's see what you and other people think. I like it.

I modified some values, and now the progress bar goes solid in programs where it's needed (like BitTorrent ^_^), and it goes blockstyle in some random ones (IE stays blockstyle, but in Firefox it's solid, so I don't know what's the rule). What matters is that it gets beautiful every way, and then the bug is gone. What do you people think?

      Still 3x what it should cost. So, it seems the trick is to increase price by 6x so that a reduction in price back to 4x looks like a steal. "You savvy shoppers win again!" I'm glad I'm not in a desperate spot to actually even need this overpriced crap. Hopefully, it comes back down by the time for when (or if) I ever do.

      Although AI is great and has it's use cases they likely have massively overhyped it and it has not delivered as per their expectations. I fully expect them to start saying the same things again when it does get to a certain level of intelligence!
    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
