^That's fine... I'm happy to have a base to work with and make my own versions and colors. Thanks b0se, even if you never get around to finishing it.

QFT....& bOse doesn't owe anyone here anything. @ bOse: take you sweet time man; whenever it's done is fine w/ me...I get a kick out of the demanding posts by all the children.

Not fine for me, I need more than a "base to work with."

Look dude, if you want other colors or a few things fixed, then just do them yourself. I think stylebuilder has a 30 day trial. Don't tell me you can't do it either as it is really simple... just time consuming to get everything perfect. It's just like making a wallpaper, except you gotta zoom in a lot.

Thanks for the QFT ;)

Evening all...

As much as I want to finish this theme right now, I can't. For two reasons...

1. I do not have the time. At all.

2. StyleBuilder is refusing to load :?)

Obviously the most annoying one is 1. But, that will change within 2-3 weeks and I will be back to finish and release this theme with all the colours you were promised. My workload will be reduced and evenings will be mine to do whatever I choose, which is a great thing for fans of GUI Air(Y))

See you in a bit!

Edit: StevoFC, you seem to have taken the delay personally. Like most people here have realised, I have more important things to do than theme for free. Like working. If the theme was finished, I would have sent you the base PSD's. However, there are a few tweaks I would like to do that will take some time, consideration and effort.

I've been using this current release of GUI Air on my desk for the last few months and its perfectly useable, hence I am in no real rush to stop working to finish it. Don't forget, I sacrifised time and money to get this release out so damn quickly. But it seems all that is forgotten when you don't get what you want straight away.

Saying the theme 'is dead', and stating people would be lucky to see an update '..ever', in my opinion, is an immature remark(s). I'm glad this happened, I don't want someone with that kind of attitude working on my stuff. Ciao.

Edit 2: To those who understand my predicament and have been very patient and shown support - thank you very much - means a lot(Y))

i see how it came off the wrong way, but i didn't really take it personally. I have also become very busy and have very little free time to do much of anything, but when I had offered I had a lot of free time. That is the only reason why I was slightly frustrated for not receiving anything. I do appreciate all the work you do...especially since i used to do a lot of visual styles myself. I graduate in 2 weeks so that will take a huge load off of my shoulders also. I'll just have that other full time thing called work to deal with...

But anyways, you said in your post you no longer would like me to help and i understand that. good luck with it. I was just trying to be nice and help you out some at the time. You tend to disappear for months at a time, so thinking that the theme is dead isn't necessarily as immature as you think.

:) many thanks for b0se great work, the best of best themes, :laugh: I keep almost all the themes made by bose.

By the way, I wonder if you have any plan to update your previous themes, such as W9DProm, OPUS etc? I think they are still high quality theme and unique amony many themes. Thanks

b0se you are truly a GOD! I thought KoL's themes were great but the simplicity and quality of your themes are so good that I doubt I'll change from your collection anytime soon. I am currently using Codename: Opus but if I ever need a change I'll use this theme. Wow.

Work can be crazy. I work part time at a Library and it's hectic for me so I can't even imagine what it's like for people with full time jobs, families, and a Life in general. Please take your time and don't rush. We all have more than enough of your themes to choose from.

Just for anyone who cares (it might be known already) The Tango icon set would really look good with this theme. Just my opinion :p

Here are the two I've done, an Orange and a Brown. The Orange one is in the PS picture. :)

The brown was inspired by Kol's "aes", both mods were also built on Kols theme "Semplice". Since b0se's kept crashing stylebuilder for some reason. Color changes I can do, but I'll leave the GREAT themes to Kol and b0se.

I hope you find the time to relax, before you start this theme up again. Please take your time.

Thanks for the great themes, b0se.

I just want everybody to know that I didn't send it to anybody till now because bOse said he is going to finish this style with all the color variations (I hope I understood him right).

Believe me I'm not an attention ######, showing off with the work of someone else.

I felt in the mood for orange and did this color version using and tweaking the resources from the WIP thread (I don't like the word rip but that's what it is called).

And because I didn't like the taskbar I did this mod to have a more consistent and classic look.

Just let us wait for bOse to finish this style. If he doesn't everybody who wants this might have a reason to ask for a "personal copy".

One of the reasons i registered on this board recently was so i could comment on this thread...

Thank you very much b0se for posting this beta release. I've been enjoying it for a while now, and even though it's not complete it's very usable. I think that when you get around to completing it, it will be one of your best themes. I totally understand that work and other matters take priority over theming, and even if it's a bit frustrating as a fan waiting for a theme to be completed or released, I know that theming is a hobby for most themers and really appreciate the work you have done. I wouldn't be very happy if I had to live with the default WinXP Visual Styles (gag), so I am content to wait for one of my fave creators to churn out another amazing theme. :)

btw, I haven't encountered any bugs at all.

    • Exactly what I was thinking. All of a sudden in span of a month multiple CEO's from scam altman to this clown has had sudden change of heart does not seem organic change lol
    • Microsoft releases Visual Studio Code 1.124 with smarter autonomous AI agents by Paul Hill Microsoft has just released Visual Studio Code 1.124 with a focus on faster agent workflows and improved agent autonomy. Microsoft outlined the following features as the key items in this update: Autopilot: Autopilot, enabled by default, is now smarter to determine when a task is truly done. Background sessions: Quickly send a request in the background and keep composing the next session. Session navigation: Search, jump, and step through agent sessions with the keyboard. Browser history: Revisit and search pages you've already opened in the integrated browser. With VS Code 1.124, Microsoft has enabled Autopilot by default. For those that don’t know, Autopilot is a chat permission level that you can pick to give agents permission to take initiative and act autonomously, without needing explicit user approval for each action. Also related to Autopilot, Microsoft introduced Advanced Autopilot, which changes how Autopilot decides when to keep iterating and when to finish. This helps you get more complete results without manually monitoring loops. This feature works using a small utility model that reads a transcript of the chat and decides when the task is done. Another new feature in 1.124 is the Agents window, which lets you easily explore, iterate on, and review agent sessions across projects and machines. Previously, starting a new agent session meant waiting for it to load before you could compose the next one. With this update, sessions can be requested in the background. This VS Code update also brings session navigation updates to switch between them more quickly. The update also lets you reload or reopen the Agents window so that it no longer loses your layout, so you will land back where you left off. If you use the integrated browser in VS Code, you will notice that it now retains the history of visited pages. Suggestions will now show when typing in the URL bar and can be managed by using Ctrl+H within a browser tab. The browser now also lets you customize the toolbar more; just right-click on the toolbar area to the right of the URL input. Finally, the browser has faster agentic text entry. Another improvement is experimental enterprise-managed Copilot plugin policies that allow admins to centrally control which chat plugins and plugin marketplaces are available to developers. If you have VS Code installed, 1.124 should install automatically, or you'll get a prompt. If you don't have it installed, get it here.
    • Ray-Tracing is the Radeon RX 9070 XT's biggest weakness. The Radeon RX 9070 XT might not be able to match in the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti in ray-tracing, but it can beat the GeForce RTX 5070, which is around the same price.
    • I am also on latest experimental with possible insider flags on and aiming in settings for 26h1.. Also see just this wasted space. I do love "movable" small taskbar though but would love more if it had date next to it now just time.
    • Does not make it more readable for me though. The majority of your screenshot is just pitch black.
