there are a couple things that can't QUITE be done correctly, they can be done, but he probably won't want to, mostly talkin about window borders and toolbar skinning and a tradeoff he would have to make between the two.

anyway, who cares if it isnt exactly the same, you trust bose right? mockups are conceptual, every themer goes through a secondary creative process between mockup and finished style, usually that process involves a whole bunch of editing. and usualy the style ends up being better than it looked as a mockup anyway.

cheers bose

Here is a question.

When you make a vs, how much harder is it to add alternate color schemes? For example, if a vs has two color variants will it be like twice the work, or will it be a piece of cake once the first one is done?

Just curious means this one has about 6 different colors.

Practically speaking, it is twice the work.

Conceptually speaking, there is no work, since all you've got to do is to add a variant. That is maybe the most boring part in making a VS (people like to create, for creation is discovery and self-filled - excuse me if this is not the right word... don't know how to say that in english :unsure: ).

You dont need to change just the color images, depending on the theme you need to change colors and font colors setting plus making shellstyle to that theme (again change images and colors).

you know, I said I wouldn't post here until the thing was done, but I gotta now...

wtf is up with the lightsaber stuff? seriously, I feel like I'm watching a version of sword fish, mixed with star wars, on crack, on a webcam at deviant art.

Ross... I am your father.

On a serious note... how's it coming along Ross? Got any other tastey screenshots for us? You said a week, 2 weeks ago, so we're getting a little anxious. Hope all is going well. Take easy.

    • Stack Overflow is launching a version of itself for AI agents by David Uzondu Stack Overflow has announced Stack Overflow for Agents, a platform that traditionally hosts crowdsourced programming solutions for human developers, but now serves autonomous software agents. Basically, Stack Overflow's argument is that the rapid democratization of building software has exposed a major vulnerability. Agents operate in isolation, creating an Ephemeral Intelligence Gap where they waste valuable tokens on something another agent halfway across the world has already solved. That's why, according to the company, a shared, real-time knowledge repository is needed. Stack Overflow for Agents is currently in beta, running as an API-first knowledge exchange where humans review what agents publish. To prevent hallucination issues and keep the database clean, the platform uses a multi-agent verification loop to check code quality. This system forces agents to query the corpus first to locate validated answers rather than running expensive code-generation scripts. To ensure trust, Stack Overflow connects agent contributions directly to the human developer's established reputation through single sign-on credentials. The agents can interact with three distinct post types. One option, Questions, documents unsolved bugs, while "Today I Learned" posts record debugging traces. Blueprints round out the selection by storing reusable design patterns. If an enterprise wants to keep proprietary data private, the Stack Internal platform allows the organization to run the assistant behind its own firewall. Before the massive rise of LLMs, which tanked its traffic by about 50% over the last couple of years, Stack Overflow was the go-to website for millions of programmers seeking coding solutions. Some argue that another reason why the website sort of fell off stems from its notoriously hostile (and condescending) community that frequently closed basic questions and alienated beginners with strict gatekeeping. In order to avoid getting eaten by AI, Stack Overflow has tried several things. When volunteer moderators banned AI-generated content in 2023 to protect data quality, corporate leaders tried to limit those restrictions, prompting the volunteers to stage a massive site-wide strike. Since then, the developer portal has signed major deals with tech companies like Google to bring Stack Overflow data directly into Gemini models and Google Cloud console. A similar deal with OpenAI in 2024 sparked an uproar, leading some users to delete old answers in protest. The company swiftly suspended those accounts to protect the database. It has also experimented with OverflowAI, an AI-powered conversational search tool designed to pull together answers from multiple threads.
    • There are two options for smartphone platforms so consumers don't have much of a choice there. The EU is not making any decisions for customers they just want them to have options if they so choose. I am not sure why you would be for closed platforms. The big tech companies already have so much power and money while are relatively unregulated in the US which is why they run into so much trouble in the EU.
    • Hello, I am using a Moto G Stylus (2025) and happy with it.  I don't know how well the model works on Twigby's network (it looks like they are an MVNO of Verizon).  It looks like they have a BYOD plan, though, so as long as you find a device that works on their network you should be okay.   Regards,   Aryeh Goretsky
