@nismohasan: Punio4 is right. You'll find some times that problem with some buttons becasue I made the text bold. Im not going to remove the bold I like it :)

I'm going to make an update with dark text version and Yz Toolbar soon. Im a little busy with work now :)

My suggestion to those that want a true y'z toolbar icon set. Load up skinstudio and the thallos WB theme and export the toolbar icons as a file. Then use y'z toolbar and import them.

Bing bang boom you have a toolbar that is the same as the WB version. Of course you need KoL's permission before you can post it anywhere but for your own personal enjoyment it works great.

This is a nice VS, Kol; I really like it. But I'm seeing some issues in SeaMonkey.

* There is a line on the back and forward button arrow.

* The tab bar is very wide.

* The top of the status bar is strange. (Lines are not in line).

There are a few other things, but they're the big ones.

Those are problem of the browser not the theme. Firefox have the status bar problem.

Emule ?????

weird, I dont think I can do anything about that.

here is a bunch of bugs i have noticed

figure 1 - text on buttons getting cut off... this happens it alot of programs in a lot of situations...

figure 2 - as with previous styles of yours, there is a problem where context menu items have an opaqe overlay on them. compare the classic and windows screen shots compared to yours.

figure 3 - this is the last major quirk i have noticed with the style, but the spacing on the task bar is not correct at all. look at the spacing to the left of the windows orb, and then to the right between the quick start. the orb is spaced too far to the left. you can also see what the spacing it not even on the other side of the bar as well.

i think it would also be great to see this style in more color schemes once you get all of the bugs fixed.

The first bug is caused by the bold text. The second one is caused by the coloring of the context menu. The third one is not a bug but is part of the design. I believe KoL intended for the taskbar to look like that since it is the same in the WindowBlinds version. I think the first two are caused by limitations in Windows XP, not by KoL's awesome VS.

Hi all. Kol, great VS, thanks for your hard work.

I have a question about installing the Top start buttons that you included. I've downloaded resedit, opened the msstyle file but I have no idea what to do with the image file and where to put it. I've looked through all 22 posts and I couldn't find any instruction on how to do it, only a few unanswered posts about doing this. Can anyone offer any advice?

Thanks!

    • Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is getting a simultaneous release across PC and all consoles by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Square Enix showed up to the Summer Game Fest presentation today with multiple trailers showing off its next chapter in the Final Fantasy VII Remake saga. The final chapter of this trilogy now has an official name too, with it being dubbed Final Fantasy VII Revelation, following up Final Fantasy VII Remake and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth from recent years. Vincent Valentine, Cid, Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and more showed up in the trailers as they battle against enemies, or 'Weapons,' from the final chapter. "As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, the final battle against Sephiroth begins," says the trailer description. "A meteor mars the sky, monstrous planetary guardians wreak havoc across the globe, and the fires of war rage. Now, Cloud and his companions must stand against this chaos to not only decide the planet's fate, but bring a legendary conflict to its conclusion." Following the reveal trailer, the show also dropped some gameplay footage that shows off a new way to travel across the open world using the Highwind airship. Players will be able to swap characters on during battles, use tactical mode to synchronize with allies, and summon their entities. Cid Highwind and Vincent Valentine are joining the party this time too. “FINAL FANTASY VII, first released in 1997, has been beloved by fans for many years and has since become a “legend” in its own right," added producer Yoshinori Kitase. "The FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series that began in 2020 with everyone’s passionate support is finally reaching its climactic finale with FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION. The story’s final destination represents my emotions spanning thirty years working on this title" One of the biggest revelations of this announcement, however, was the multiplatform release confirmation from the get-go. Square Enix will be releasing Final Fantasy VII Revelation across PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 in Spring 2027 without any timed exclusivity programs.
    • Hello, Having a simple utility to allow Microsoft's customers to configure the context menu, with a few options like showing the current menu, showing a proposed menu/alternate configurations, loading and saving the settings, and a "reset to default" option would have solved this. Let Microsoft provide a recommended default look-and-feel, maybe a couple alternative configurations, like a basic/simplified version of that, and a more advanced version for that, and that would have been very well-received, I think. Microsoft could even had offered a library of different configurations, similar to what they have done in the past for Windows Media Player skins, Themes, and desktop wallpaper.

    • No Steam release. It's gonna fail on PC. Even an Epic Online engineer said that people go there for the free stuff and then immediately go back to Steam.
    • Nice. Admittedly, his other games never interested me, but this seems pretty cool.
    • It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.
