It looks nice on the Longhorn desktop screenshots, how does it look like in Windows XP? I think many Vista themes looks great on Longhorn but usually look very different on XP.

Also will it work on other desktop resolutions? If not I think you need to make it resolution independent (if that's possible with DesktopX...)

I'm working with this under XP :) There is no longhorn there m8 :) So what you see is what you get (under XP) :p and about the resolution, well, right now i havent found a way to adapt the theme to every resolution change... so ill be releasing it in three different resolution sizes, untill i find the best way to make it work on any resolution without screwing up the whole desktop..... :(

hmmm...let me finish some assignments, then it wouldn't matter if it even messes up everything in my PC.

it looks really cool man. i'd probably use it if it was a widget of some kind. i don't think i'd want to use a complete desktop replacement just to use the very cool start menu. nice work tho.

sniv, i released a start menu gadget in this build, you might wanna try it out.. thats why some people is saying that it runs without desktop x... but watch out, its the start menu only, not the whole desktop... ill see if i can release a full gadget beta, ill be working on it, it would be like a replacement of your explorer.exe... later ill explain more about it... depends of how it works out....

      I named Hitler because he is the de facto anti-semite. But you don't have to hate Jews to be a genocidal maniac. In fact, these days, so called semites are the ones acting in ways that would make Hitler proud.

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today

      By zikalify · Posted

      Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
