The taskbar is finished. What I might make changes to is the buttons in the toolbar, mouseover and stuff like that.

@Everyone:

I'm also thinking about making the black style have gray background like Royale instead of the creamy as people call it. What does everyone think of that?

I don't understand.

What is creamy/gray? What background are you talking about?

Ohhh - please NOOOOO!!! This color combination looks already perfect - please dont change it!

Another question: In the black style the taskbar buttons looks like they have a different margin at the top and the bottom!??! So it looks they are not vertically centered on the taskbar?!? Does anyone noticed this too??

For comparison: At KoL?s 5203 Longhorn theme the buttons looks centered...

And is there a chance to remove the 2 pixel height space above the window caption bar, you will get, when you take a screenshot from a whole window...somebody mentioned that already in this thread..

I appreciate the mention, I'm glad I could help you out. :cool:

@Archangel,

Anyway you can "gloss up" your colored alt.start button? While it looks great, it seems a tad flat looking compared to the cylindrical shading of the task bar. Just a small request if you're in a giving mood one day. :)

Although the LE4 is absolutely GREAT, I am so looking forward to your next project. From what I saw I think many more will be blown away by it. CAN WAIT!!!

Oh man, snooze and lose. I would have put my vote in for the grey window treatment. I was just updating a machine this weekend that's running Microsoft's Royale theme. I was thinking that the grey/blue hue of the windows and widgets would compliment the black/blue of the LE4 caption and task bars.

Oh well. You won't hear any complaints from me. LE4's tight.

Please, no. "Creamy" background is one of the foundations of Luna. Without it the reason for calling your style "Luna Element" will be lost in some way. Please, don`t do it. :)

Wow, I seem to be in the minority on this one. Don't get me wrong. LE4 is rad, just as it is. I just don't think em3's suggestion would be a bad one - for the black style. Check it out:post-126370-1126049819_thumb.jpg

    • 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.”

    • 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.
