I finished the Visual Style version of Fresco. I was spending a lot of time on this theme and I decided to release it the way it is right now. For a while I wanted to experiment with this colors and I came up with this theme. WindowBlinds version is almost finished.

A fresh skin for the summer. Package contains the Visual Style with two different versions, White and Black. Both came with normal and compact start menu, and 3 different fonts; Arial, Tahoma and Verdana.

Updates

Version 1.1

-----------

- Fixed toolbar separator.

- Fixed text of header in blac version.

- Fixed shellstyle of white version.

Version 1.0

-----------

- First release.

Great visual style. Like some have noticed in the WIP thread, this has an Xbox (360)-ish theme. :happy:

Several suggestions:

- in the white substyle, the titlebar text looks too light, thus making it difficult to distinguish between active/inactive titlebars. Maybe the active titlebar's text should be darkened slightly.

- grey text in the black substyle is a bit too hard to read in menus. Maybe the text could be darkened a little bit?

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • what other retro software do yall use

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
