These (both blue and black) are awesome - great job! I was just curious if there are any other colors in this style; for example silver or even brown (I heard about someone who made a brown one but haven't seen it anywhere). Does anyone have any info on other colors??

Thanks in advance!

There's only a blue and black version of Luna Elements. The other 2 color versions are indeed made but both are personal mods. Personal mods can't be released so you won't find them on the net. If you do find another color mods on deviantART etc. it's a cheap mod from a person that doesn't respect the artists decisions.

And no, this is not an openings message to another discussion about the decisions an artists makes for releasing mods or not.

Thanks for the info. Sorry if I offended anyone, as that wasn't my intent.

looking gooood.

now the world awaits that black style.

i've noticed something about the thin taskbar. when the taskbar is at the top of the screen, the 'glossy' part isn't nice & even all the way through as it is when the taskbar is at the bottom of the screen. not an issue with the regular size.

Sorry for digging such an old post, but the problem seems to persist with the compact substyle. Using the latest from deviantart.

Well that's probably not a fixable problem. From what i've seen, the bottom and top taskbar images share the same source file... fixing one would likely break the other... and bottom taskbar (:D) is more important.

It's a fixable problem. You don't have to change images to fix it, you only have to change some margins from the top taskbar.

Look into the ini files for the compact substyle and change the sizingmargins for the taskbar.

Loving the theme, IMO one of my favourites :) just wish the start button was bigger but hey nothings perfect :p

There are some alternatives which you may want to use. Capric0rn recently posted a .zip file with the modded start buttons. It may be a couple of pages back in this thread.

Ofcourse I'm allowed :) Here's the link: Full Startbutton Set

I've added a few other startbuttons as well. These full startbuttons don't really fit LE 5.1. I could ask em3 if I can make new ones for both Blue and Black :)

Does anyone have an updated Winamp skin to go with the new glossy black? ..Or do I have to mod one myself :)

This one: http://gelosea.deviantart.com/art/Luna-Ele...-Black-57571128

I wonder if I could get premission to release the color mods for the Winamp skin? Since no one has done an updated skin for the newer blue and black.

I've asked Han_Solo several times if he was still working on the theme but I didn't have answer back.

I started a Classic Winamp skin for LE 5.1 Blue ah while back. I can make 1 for black as well. I'm not sure if I can release them since it's build on top of Han_Solo's skin. I could start a complete new one to my own likings and release that. I could start working on it this weekend and maybe have it done next week.

^I already reported it to the dA boards. What really annoys the heck out of me is this text that he put up there: "The original visual styles are Microsoft Corporation from my windows xp os cd. I am just try to new look." He had a different text up there before, stating that the visual style was from him. I can even see that he has hidden my comment.

    • It is silly there is no simple way to check whether this profile has been activated. CFRs are normal, but trying to even hide the fact if it's on / off seems silly, especially for something so user-facing. Surely Microsoft is "proud" of their engineering efforts on this one and ought to display it somwhere in the GUI.
    • Many Linux distros are not known for excellent battery life, so I'm not sure that is the best example. A more apt example may be Apple, but Apple's CPUs are simply far more efficient than Intel & AMD at single-threaded tasks like these, so "boosting" is not as power-hungry and less heat-inducing. Not to mention Apple will hardly engage P-cores for basic UI tasks; they use a pretty complicated QoS scheme to only activate P-cores for more serious workloads like HTML / JS execution or decompression or application launch. Microsoft is (smartly) doing it for launch, but also for UI tasks, which is the more nonsensical part: why ... do Windows 11's UIs need modern CPUs to boost? It should load so quickly that there's not even time for the CPU to boost.
    • I've not seen any controlled testing and, judging by Microsoft's mentality, within a year, they'll have added so much more bloat, it'll undo any perceptible latency benefit and we'll have boosted the CPU clocks for nothing.
    • It depends: heat soak is a thing. Initially on cold boot-up, the heatsinks & heatpipes are at ambient temp. After heatsinks & heatpipes warm up (through normal usage), they don't immediately cool to ambient temp when the load goes away. So their baseline is higher and the trigger point for fans is much less stress. Add a few more CPU spikes → it's too hot to stay at the same fan RPM → fans get triggered to start up up much sooner / get triggered to ramp much more quickly.
    • Can LibreOffice just shut up and worry about themselves and stop comparing themselves? Do we see Microsoft complaining about euro office?
