I changed my mind about the mist blue windows. It looks to much baby blue. I'll have to come up with something else. :p

Many of us like the mist. :D The screen shots I saw looked great. What don't you post another shot and get some feed back as to whether others would still like it and then make your decision. When LE4 was being developed that was the vs I was waiting for most!

I liked the old mist preview, too. While I love LE4, I was looking forward to that substyle the most, and then it got axed.

It may not be possible to create the style that was previewed, but surely a similar color scheme isn't out of the question?

Anyone like this?

Sure do. Not too bright, easy on the eyes and a bit different then the other styles. Would add a nice depth to the LE 4 falmily :p

But if you dont feel like doing it yourself you shouldn't even if we like it. Its much easier and much more fun to work on something that you "feel" for yourself. And if that is true the quality often turns out much higher.

Looking forward to the update no matter what :)

It's looking really nice, but there's too much space in the title bar now (to me at least). I liked the way the compact LE4 title bar came out! But, I do like the new style of having a different gradient! Also, is there going to be color at the top in the caption buttons? Every theme is going for the no-character colorless look! :angry: Color, I want color! :D Hey, I know everyone will say no, but how about a green X button (green and black are my favs...lol). ;) Good work so far, though! That silver style will definitely be on my computer if you continue it (and add more color coupled with black accents as stated above). :)

heya bud, figured it was about time i came in here and gave you some public props, as i think i have failed to do so thus far. LE4 is a beautiful theme, youre a talented graphic artist with the eye of a true designer. I look forward to any new work you produce, keep it up.

luna element ascension would be nice ;)

    • I literally tried to install it on my PC today and it crashed upon every start up. I tried all the tricks, terminate and remove cache, uninstall, reinstall, reboot, install via winget.. in the end I had my call with Brad Wardell on Google Meet. Oh I also tried Teams on the web, and got no video or audio (yes I allowed mic and camera).
    • Microsoft explains how it made Teams so much faster in 2026 by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is Redmond's flagship online communication and collaboration tool, primarily used in enterprise, government, and school environments. It regularly receives updates, with Microsoft frequently revealing features currently in development as well, such as Efficiency Mode and a dedicated app for meeting recaps. Now, the company has shed some light on the backend enhancements it has made to its popular software in 2026. During the first half of 2026, switching between chats has become 20% faster on desktop and web, which is especially great for less powerful devices or hardware on weak networks. Microsoft explains that it tracks two types of chat switches. The first is a warm switch, which relates to returning to a recent chat, in which case it is most likely already present in memory and should load extremely fast. The other is a cold switch where a chat that hasn't been opened recently is now opened. Naturally, the second type of chat switch was causing the most notable latency spikes. Microsoft realized that this was happening because of three reasons. First, the query to fetch conversation data was being fired too late. Next, queries were being sent sequentially, increasing the overall round-trip time. Finally, there was no handling of response priority, which meant that non-critical responses would sometimes block the main thread. Microsoft solved all of these problems by firing the data query immediately, bundling queries to be sent together so that they wouldn't create a "waterfall" effect, and enabling faster painting of the frame. As a result, warm and cold switches now have almost the same latency, and the only distinguishable difference between them is due to the data layer response time. Next, Microsoft focused on reducing app hangs and freezes on macOS and iOS by 35%. On macOS, the company has a health monitor thread running in the background that does exactly what it says on the tin. The tech firm built a dedicated StackDecoder tool to analyze health monitor's output at scale. Through this combination, it decided to move several error reporting and monitoring threads either to the background or treated them as an asynchronous call so that they wouldn't block the main thread, causing Teams to freeze. On iOS, the same result was accomplished through optimization of computations, caching, offloading operations from the main thread, refactoring database access behaviors, deferring non-critical tasks, and more. On a related note, it also made people search 25% on iOS by optimizing the query pipeline, and efficient database task queuing and scheduling. However, Microsoft has emphasized that improving Teams' performance is an ongoing endeavor, and that it hopes that these efforts will continue to make the software a reliable partner in online communication scenarios. On a related note, Microsoft recently unveiled some upcoming performance upgrades for OneDrive on macOS too, and you can check those out here.
