You can not use filenames with underscore (_). That's the only problem I've had when the theme doesn't work. If that is not the problem I don't know what is, sorry :( Btw.

EDIT: The theme was created in Stylebuilder 2. Might work if you try that.

:alien: Greetings.

Well first of all i have to say kick a** skin dude.

I am sorry that i have to add this that you missed on the vs.

Might fix that in the next release.

em3, ever thought of allowing open LE MODs? It would be cool to see people play around with this awesome theme.

I allow posting of modded parts, that's it, not the entire theme.

I missed final release but not much has changed, apart from the addition of compact styles, which is always nice. But now I have to reapply my mods, and I'm sooo lazy.

Here's my recreation of the glow hover effect for taskbar items from LE3, and also a return of the gradiented systray area. I also changed the fonts to Segoe UI and compacted the startmenu, but thats dead straightforward to do.

Thanks for the awesome style em3.

Actually there kind of mine... Reason being is that, when you posted the early screenshot I ripped the buttons but then i over wrote the Vs then if you remember I emailed you and asked if it was possible for you to send me them but you said how you won?t be using them or something along those lines... Anyways after that I found a desktop screenshot of them and managed to re-create them in Photoshop, and then used them on my LE3 mod. But then you released LE4 beta... So I used the centre of your buttons and the copy of your buttons I had made. Which kind of makes them mine as I put them togethe:p::p:p

em3 bring back the progess bar you used in le2, the solid green bar insted of the chopped up green blocks.

does anyone know how I could go about modding le4 to have the old progress bar like in le2?

well, this is actually a hybrid to prevent bugs (to this day i still dont know what the hell they are talking about) but yeah, supposedly it solves a bug...just live with this, if you really are bugged, i can mod it, but it'll bring back the mysterious bug :ninja:

Wow. I'm happy to see it's been released finally. I held off on the beta so I've been on the edge of my seat.

What can I say? It's damn near perfect. I LOVE the shell style. The start button will tak a little getting used to, but I like it. The only thing I liked better in older versions was the area in the start menu you now have white. I liked it darker. Maybe to match the shellstyle?

Fantastic job. I looove it.

Wouldn't that be the correct glyph? Left glyph = restoring it to window size, middle glyph = maximising the window completely and right glyph = close. What's wrong?

I think they're unhappy with the fact that it just seems to cut off, and is distanced from the other glyphs. Not much you can do about the cutoff issue, given the style of the theme, and I'm pretty sure that extra padding is added by the apps in question.

    • EU says Meta must restore rival chatbots' access to WhatsApp by Hamid Ganji The European Commission has ordered Meta to restore third-party AI chatbots’ access to WhatsApp after the tech giant decided to block them from operating on the popular messaging platform. After Meta banned rival AI chatbots from operating on WhatsApp, the European Commission launched an antitrust investigation to determine whether the company had abused its market dominance. As a result of Meta’s decision, third-party AI chatbots, including Microsoft’s Copilot and OpenAI’s ChatGPT, were prevented from operating on WhatsApp. At the time, Meta said it wanted to reserve the WhatsApp Business API for other types of businesses and did not allow rival chatbots to use it. This effectively prevented the WhatsApp ecosystem from being used to distribute rival chatbot services. However, the European Commission has now announced an interim measures decision requiring Meta to restore access to WhatsApp for rival general-purpose AI assistants on the same terms and conditions as before October 15, 2025. The Commission has also asked Meta to maintain that access until the antitrust investigation is concluded. The Commission argues that Meta has used its dominant market position to prevent rival AI chatbots from accessing the WhatsApp Business API. While Meta allowed rival services to return to WhatsApp by paying a fee, the European Commission still considers that arrangement to be a de facto access ban. According to EU antitrust chief Teresa Ribera, the fees introduced by Meta are so high that using WhatsApp is no longer economically sustainable for competitors. “It seems that Meta expects to leverage the vast reach and likely dominance of WhatsApp to benefit its own AI assistant and to foreclose rivals,” Ribera said. “We cannot let large digital incumbents leverage their dominance of the past to dictate who in Europe gets to compete and who gets to innovate in AI.”

    • I'm fine with a little reasonable promotion of Edge, but the degree which they do it right now I consider extremely unreasonable. 
    • Microsoft AI boss no longer believes that AI will replace human workers by David Uzondu Mustafa Suleyman, the head of Microsoft AI, recently took back his statements concerning white-collar jobs that he gave to the Financial Times in an interview made back in February, where he claimed that AI would replace office workers within 12 to 18 months. On Monday's episode of The Verge's Decoder, Suleyman recast the technology as more like a helpmate than a tool designed to take over your job. He explained that smaller office duties will "increasingly become digitized, automated" as people generate more digital materials. During the discussion, Suleyman emphasized a "very important distinction" between "tasks" and "jobs" to clarify his previous claims. He argued that his earlier comments only referred to individual actions that people perform at their desks. Suleyman used to work for DeepMind, the research lab he co-founded in 2010 alongside Demis Hassabis and Shane Legg, before he left in 2022 to establish Inflection AI and build an empathetic digital assistant. Microsoft hired him in March 2024 to lead its newly formed "Microsoft AI" division, placing him in charge of consumer products like Copilot, Bing, and Edge. His February comments also detailed plans for Microsoft to achieve self-sufficiency with a $140 billion infrastructure budget to train frontier models, predicting that creating a customized AI will soon feel like creating a podcast or a new blog: The 41-year-old is not the only AI executive who's softened his "AI will replace you" stance. OpenAI's CEO, Sam Altman, last month used X to push back against employment panic by arguing that his startup builds tools to assist humans rather than build replacements. He had previously garnered backlash by suggesting that many modern office roles that AI might replace did not qualify as "real work" in the first place, at least when you compare desk jobs to physical, historical labor like farming.
