Dissing Timan right in front of him?? Wow.;))

Well it's better than doing it behind someone's back.;))

What I really don't understand about it's design is the need of emulating an Aqua Finder window. It looks weird having a (fake) window inside window. Doesn't look very professional.

Just a matter of personal preferences, I just don't like the overall design and accessibility.

Hey, you're entitled to your opinion, and I do not want to steal this thread from what its originally about.

Sorry, I tried to make a skin that does in fact reflect a real OSX app, it even was made following the Apple Aqua Guidelines, I'm also sorry its a skin that doesn't look like a default forum skin with a few graphic changes. You should also not judge a theme based on its looks, when you have no idea what the community is about. EMULATING THE LOOK AND FEEL OF MAC OSX.

Lets see you design a Mac styled skin and then you can talk.

Just hope the Aqua/Mac theme skin here on neowin will not just be a few image/color changes, and actually have a smoother layout in general while keeping the general look the same.

I'm very surprised (and glad) to see the logo changed considering how FlishFun and Neobond firmly assured us that they would NEVER consider any other logo.

Anyway, this news gets me even more excited about the update. I can't wait to see how the new Neowin will turn out.

offtopic/ I agree with Timan.

While everyone's 100% entitled to own opinion, saying things like "don't understand about it's design is the need of emulating an Aqua Finder window" clearly shows he(Neowave) didn't bother to understand the purpose of Timan's Aqua-Soft theme.

A theme that is supposed to emulate OSX interface gets criticized for emulating OSX interface... now that's weird.

You should also not judge a theme based on its looks, when you have no idea what the community is about. EMULATING THE LOOK AND FEEL OF MAC OSX.

Actually I know what the community is all about, so you shouldn't judge about things you don't have a clue about yourself either. I gave my reasons about why I think that Aqua-Soft's forum design doesn't really work, especially not on larger forums like Neowin.

And of course I judge a theme based on it's looks and how it works when using the forums. That's it's main purpose: Giving something a cool exterior without loosing functionality. But yeah, you did a great job EMULATING THE LOOK of Mac OS X.

Lets see you design a Mac styled skin and then you can talk.

Since when exactly is there a need to make something yourself before you can comment about it? I remember the time on Aqua-Soft when Mac OS X 10.3 Panther's new Aqua look was introduced and how a lot of users on the forum were bitching about it. How many of those people coded/designed their own, near flawlessly working, hardware accelerated GUI from scratch?

I still live in a free country (and I'm quite happy about that) so don't tell me about what things I can or cannot talk.

No hard feelings, I just don't agree with you.

<edit period ran out :pinch: >

here's a great logo for a black skin:

:shifty:

took a lot of work - invert and rotate hues 50%.

it'd look better if the shine in the middle was still white, though  :pinch:

That logo would be awesome for a Halloween theme :rofl:

^

Maybe all the current, plus the Aqua one and my special request of a Halloween one :shifty:

Hmm... you're forgetting the new default "glass" one. :shifty:

Talking about the current themes, will those be dropped?

    • I bought this game. Played it for an hour, and then got a refund from Steam. Not a fun game at all.

    • Forza Horizon 6 gets another hotfix for one of the game's online modes by Taras Buria Recently, Forza Horizon 6 players discovered an interesting glitch that allowed farming a crazy amount of in-game credits in a few minutes. Playground Games quickly pulled the plug on the exploit by disabling one of the game's online modes, and today, the studio is rolling out another hotfix. In my review, I complained about the game still showering gamers with cars, credits, and wheelspins. As such, earning money in Forza Horizon 6 is not a particularly difficult task. You simply have to play the game, crazy, I know. However, people still found an easier path to becoming a billionaire in Forza Horizon 6. All you had to do was purchase the Hummer EV, install a specific tune, shift in reverse while going at about 15 MPH, hit a wall, and get launched into the stratosphere at the speed of light. While mid-air, launch Eliminator and quickly get eliminated. Boom, the game just awarded you with a few million in-game credits. Initially, Playground Games disabled Eliminator to prevent people from farming credits. Now, following the release of the first balancing update, developers are rolling out a new update that re-enables Eliminator and gives users a free McLaren Sabre as a gesture of goodwill. Here is the changelog: One critical issue remains unpatched, though. There are quite a few reports of the game wiping gamers' saves, and developers are still looking into that. To avoid potential data loss, Playground Games recommends taking one of the steps outlined in a previously published support article.
