Gotcha.

Reasons: 1, 2

"I just think it would end the annoyance of inconsiderate people"

So.. they are allowed to annoy us with making rips based on our stuff and uploading them? If they just start respecting the decisions we make maybe all the annoyance will stop.

It's all how you look at it, I guess.

Would you like it if you see something that you've worked on for so long, maybe a year, to be all messed up by someone else? It's nothing but disrespect to the artist that made the theme. That's what I think about it. Sure I've made mods based on themes but I don't go posting links to it.

so i'm looking to change the fonts using resedit or reshack, anybody that can help?

I use resedit; Open the "msstyle" in Resedit. Go to "Text File" & choose the style. Then hit the "Edit" button, which should open it in Notepad or something. Once in Notepad hit "Ctrl+F"(Find) and type "font", just go down through the file changing the font/size things to the desired one.

That's the way I do anywho.

There's not going to be a LE SE. Only a totally new LE which you can find in this thread a few posts back :) And there's no ETA set for that either. It's hard to set release dates for a visual style.. just so you know.

What I've never understood is why people feel they have to release their mod, especially when it's against the original creator's wishes. So, you created a mod to suit your own needs, good for you. If you like using your own mod shouldn't that be enough?

Sorry for furthering the mod issue, but I felt the need to mention that.

Yeah, I have no idea why they feel they have to release it. It's not like they have made their own skin :/ They SHOULD make their own skin instead of modding one and releasing it. It's so much more fun that way as well.

Edit: It seems that the ripper posted in the link 1 page back has finnaly been dealt with by deviantART. They've banned the person that was constantly posting rips.

Hmz haven't posted here in a while...

But looking at this topic, it still sounds like everyone is on the 'i-know-i-cant-release/upload-mods-but-i-do-so-anyway-and-i-like-to-complain-about-this-afterwards-altough-i-knew-i-couldnt-release-it-from-the-start' bandwagon...

like Cap said, creators of theme's make their own rules for their OWN themes..these things should be respected, whether it's a theme or a painting made by picasso.

Rules are made to be followed, not to be broken by some people who'll start complaining afterwards, even if they know the original creators don't like mods to be spread over the internet.

Just be happy with the themes people create here, and respect the fact that they don't allow mods to be distributed (only for own use...).

Sounds like people wan't to distribute other peoples stuff to get good comments and positive feedbacks on something they didn't originally created.

Hi guys, i'm a long time LE user... i'm in love with it lol.

Anyways... i'm making a mod for it (using StyleBuilder) and wanted to ask how to make the compact start panel to work, since when importing it seems that it gets lost in the process.

Here is a pic of my desktop, hope you like it :)

Oh! and also: how do i change the active caption text shadow? any ideas?

For a compact startpanel, you'll have to change the sizing margins from the places panel and the default startpanel size. The text shadow can be found inside Skinstudio. I don't know where exactly since I've never used the latest version.

IMO, This is the reason why em3 doesn't allow people to release mods.

LOL, it's a WIP... besides, it doesn't have to suit everyone's taste since it's foe personal use only :p

(And the .jpeg really screws it up)

True. Whilst it's not at all to my taste, I guess it has potential to look reasonably good (although I of course prefer the originals). Is the start menu meant to stick out like that?

Nope, start menu is pasted there from another screenshot, i wanted to show the active caption on and off.

The main "inspiration" for this color scheme comes from the XBOX 360 colors, also i wanted to have a LE theme that resembles the original silver Luna theme.

But yeah, it's kinda hard to get used to this colors, especially coming from black :p

    • Windows 11's big performance boost is finally available for all

      By Case_f · Posted

      Frankly, I blame whoever is writing such articles. "A big improvement/update and/or new feature is now available to everyone! Also, use this unofficial tweak tool to enable it because it actually isn't available to you yet officially and might not in fact even be entirely ready or whatever, hence why it is perhaps not enabled for you*. But it's great and you should enable it!" I mean there's nothing wrong with sharing info about some feature you might need to enable via unofficial means, of course. It's just that these articles tend to essentially end up being two news pieces in one, and one of them tends to be a bit misleading. (*Yes, yes, the "it's a controlled rollout!" thing. Not a fan of that one either. The argument, not the actual rollout.)

      Thank you. Will do. I read in the release notes that editor config might be at play here.

    • OpenAI is making Codex more useful in Chrome and the cloud

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI is making Codex more useful in Chrome and the cloud by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI's Codex now has more than 5 million users, up nearly 4x from earlier this year. To further accelerate Codex's growth among developers, OpenAI today announced that it has agreed to acquire Ona, a company that builds secure cloud execution and orchestration technology for developers. Ona will enable developers to run Codex with persistent and controlled cloud infrastructure for long-running agentic workflows. Right now, most Codex execution happens locally on developers' laptops and PCs, and the agents work continuously for hours. Through Ona, OpenAI aims to make Codex agents keep working for days without being tied to a user’s local machine or an active session. This will be an important capability for enterprises that want to deploy AI agents in production while maintaining control over infrastructure, data, security boundaries, credential scope, logging, and review workflows. Like any acquisition, the deal is still subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory approvals. Until the deal closes, OpenAI and Ona will continue to operate as separate companies. After closing, Ona’s team will join the Codex team to improve developer workflows. Alongside the Ona acquisition announcement, OpenAI today introduced a few Codex updates. Developers can now save Codex rate limit resets and use them later instead of losing them when they are not needed immediately. OpenAI is also adding a referral option where users can invite a friend to Codex and get a saved rate limit reset. OpenAI today also announced a developer mode for browser use in Chrome and the Codex in-app browser. With this mode, Codex can use the Chrome DevTools Protocol to debug web apps, inspect pages, and work more directly with browser-based development workflows. Developers can use this when they want Codex to profile JavaScript, inspect console output and network traffic, examine web page states including the DOM and applied styles, and more.
