for all those having problems with the file just check what version of winzip u r using to unpack it, the file is fine. I am using winzip 10 and winrar 3.30 and everything unpacked fine..

no zip utilities here. just built-in zip support by XP. I guess it is not compatible with this!

edit: I received the file from invhntr in an email. That file is fine and I can open it no problem. :)

Is there a compact version?

(damn, I cant believe neowin does not has a thread search function (unless I am blind), its near impossible to traverse huge threads like this to look for specific details in a post of this size).

They do. Take a look at the bottom of any thread you're viewing. There's a search topic option.

Also let me clear up my previous statement. b0se, I really think it's great that you're going down a new path with this one. I do like that it's very original. It just doesn't suit me as your other styles have. Every style I've used that you've come out with has a classic b0se finish to it. This one just doesn't do that for me. I could be nit picking, but I am very particular to styles that I use. This one just doesn't feel right. It's hard to explain it. I know it's not very constructive, and I do appologize for that. I'm going to go home tonight and give it another shot, and hopefully I can come up with something a little better. But, keep it up man. I really enjoy all of your other work.

[beta 1] Gui.Air

The wait is over!

The wait might be over... but now we have another wait for the completed set... :(

I have enjoyed this style for the last few days and only don't like it when I get a group on the task bar or look at the unskinned tabs, progress bar etc.

/me is waiting patiently

To update you all.. Ross AKA bOse.. is working 14 hour days, and is going to be busy with work for the next 2 to 3 weeks, please be patient with the status of this project, Ross is a good friend of mine, and I spoke to him today, he is really stressed out, and needs to clear his head. So progress with this VS is on the back burner for now. I hope you can all understand this, and think what a great guy he is by making these great themes for all of us.

;)

Thanks everyone for understanding, soon as Ross has some free time and is less stressed with daily life, he will be back working hard on the VS for everyone.

It's great b0se! Really, it is. Such themes makes me want to start up APC again. :laugh:

Ah well, it's good to have you back and I'll enjoy your theme's on my ... office ... *shhh* laptop for a while ;)

**EDIT**

This is not meant to pull you down but is it possible that - towards the future - you may bring one with a grey toolbar and a blue selected window? So basically the opposit of what it is now. I am not a lover of colord taskbars, that would make the theme just that little extra. ;)

This topic is now closed to further replies.

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

      By Snake Doc · Posted

      After watching the Apple event earlier this week it is quite the contrast. Apple is going back and tweaking the code to make things more efficient in may areas of MacOS. Windows is boosting your electric build to hide their issues.

      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.
