[Poll] Windows OS + Theme used

[supernova_00]

Background on why I started this poll, quoting myself from a mozillazine.org thread:

Bug# 303806 [Firefox] - Wallpaper patch for better appearance on Windows XP / Luna [Win]

• It is hideous on XP Classic, Windows 2000 and Win 98.
  
• Javascript console was forgotten to be patched
  
• as well as a bug with the sanitize settings window (See Bug# 303806 Comment# 83)
  
• Most business/schools still use Windows 2000 and even a lot of businesses use XP with classic menus. The company I work for runs XP with classic menus and we have roughly 110,000 computers worldwide. Granted all of them don't use Firefox but the majority of our U.S. officies do.
  

IE is always brought up because we want somewhat consistent UI. screw it and do it how we want and what looks best for us...not what IE has already has set in place.

M$ can't/couldnt even keep all menu toolbars same size and all highlight boxes same size throughout all of there programs so why should be try to be consistent with one of those programs be it IE or notepad when they are all differerent anyways.

I've also blogged about this here to try and get this out there.

Now the reason I created this poll is to find out based on Neowin's member what OS you guys use (windows only) and which theme you use...be it classic or non-classic (ie. Luna or a variant).

Please post like this

1) Windows OS

2) Windows Classic or a Luna/non-classic theme

[spex04]

1. Windows XP

2. Non-Classic (Luna Element 4 at the moment)

Thanks for starting this supernova, I got a week off for speaking out...but it had to be done. They just lost a tester for a week since I can't post...and may just quit testing altogether.

I agree...I can't wait till the stuff 'hits the fan' in the morning or later tonight.

WinXP/Luna

[StuRReaL]

luna elements 4 ;)

[illicit]

2) Luna Theme

[Ksg]

XP

Classic Theme

[IceDogg]

1. Windows XP Home

2. Non-Classic (Luna Element 4 first time not using Luna for XP, seems funky now)

sorry for what happened Littlemutt, but please don't quit altogether, I've seen some of the stuff you have done by following the nighly threads.. Don't let a few ruin your fine work for us all.

[supernova_00]

sorry to hear that littlemutt. ya, the crap will hit the ceiling tomororw. Like i stated in my post on mozillazine, most users on mozillazine and neowin are powerusers with good computers and XP and since they are powerusers they tend to change themes so really the majority of the 2000/Classic users don't have a nightly with the half-ass hack yet.

[Koolslacker]

Windows XP

Silver

[beardedwonder]

XP

Blackcomb theme

Don't you think you should post a couple of images, a before and after to help users who aren't running the beta?

[IceDogg]

I would like to see some before after shots too. I didn't really see a huge difference myself. A little extra padding and some shadows being left off. Seems like a lot of fuss over seemingly small things. Please don't take that as me not agreeing. I don't like the extra padding myself. But I still think a side by side shot of the difference will help peeps.

[xpgeek]

XP Pro

Non-Classic, Royal Four visual style.

[-Hiroshi-]

Used: Windows Vista

-sighs-... not even going to say anything about this poll

Voted XP/ Non-classic theme or other

[blush]

Windows XP/Other Non-Classic Theme.

[bush]

please add windows xp using classic theme. and btw in firefox 1.5 beta1 this is implemented and fixed and is looking quite okay for me.

[farox]

The choices in the poll don't make sense, for XP there is luna, and non-classic. Shouldn't that be luna and classic? And shouldn't there be a last choice for non-classic, any os?

Regardless, XP, classic theme.

I like this kind of polls.

I keep changing visual styles, but for this week I have been using:

LAPTOP

1. Windows XP Home Edition

2. Longhorn "5203" by KoL

[THE BAT]

Windows XP/Areo 5203

[Evilpig]

XP Pro

Luna Element 4

Been using somatic albino ever since I downloaded it. I love minimal, gray themes. I use it in conjunction with my Metal Gear blackbox theme, which fits it rather nicely.

[Opelman]

Windows XP+Areo 5203 it's my favorite look

[Quillz]

I use WinXP Pro SP2, with Luna Element 4. :)
