Only thing I wanna see changed is the gap between the start button and the rest of the task bar.  Cut it in half at least.  Otherwise it's a perfect Xmas theme.

i've taken a few days off of making the style.. it was driving me nuts, i needed a break from it.

The gap will be fixed between the start button.. the background image for the alternative shellstyle will NOT be added, because it doesn't want to agree with me. I haven't fixed the issue with the "black corner" on the right of the caption bar, when the windows is resized, but i plan on fixing it.

other than that... i'm not sure that anything more will be changed. A compact menu will be added, and i still plan on making an alternative style with colored borders, and less "grey/silver"...

than i'll port to WB..

but i dont have any planned release date as of yet..just soon.

im using this rite now although i may switch back and wait for xmas to come to use this again. its by far the best xmas vs because its actually usable unlike most of the others.

heres a small wallpaper i just made to go along w/ the style. ur welcome to use it for the vs, just PM me to tell me cuse i'd like to know.

I loved how the stars were originally. :(

I hate reporting more bugs... but it has to be done.

Someone noted that the apps in Office 2003 end up having 16 colour icons. I confirm that behaviour.

Compare both screenshots: one from Exmas and one from LE4.

not sure if this has been said before or not but u cannot right click on the window name things in the taskbar.

:huh:

If you meant the taskbar buttons, they work just fine. I can right click on anything in the taskbar and the correct menu will pop up.

sry guys.. i've been crazy busy lately.. haven't had the chance to finalize the theme yet.. so my apologies to those who still feel it's not usable..

anyway.. until the final release.. i released the logon and styler toolbar on the website..

okay i'm gonna see what i can do with it right now.. i can fix the caption bar bug with the black corner, fixed a few other things as well and added some things.. but i have no F*ing clue how to fix that 16bit outlook icon issue.. no idea.

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.

    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.
    • Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
