Thanks god there are people like you on the net (aka, not acting like idiots). I tend to forget that, since I rarely see them.

You're 2 cents is worth nothing. The subject was on topic since b0se himself had posted the words the he was just cleaning things up for the release within the week. That was posted in September. It was a legitmate question since we are 3/4 through October.

Well then why keep this thread in THIS (COMPLETED VISUAL STYLES) sub-forum at all?? Retarded and pointless.

He has posted several "updates" stating he would release the theme "within the month" or "within the week", and has never done it. I understand that he has a life, and a job, and responsabilities other than theming, which is a hobby, and that we are all lucky to get his high quality of work. However, I also think it would be more considerate if he were to just stick to his previous "I have things to take care of that don't involve theming" response (which is perfectly understandable), and release it when ready w/o having to lead us on for months and months.

B0se has many adoring fans, including myself, and I don't want him to hinder his personal life just for a stupid theme, but consideration is a two-way street. Yes people whine and complain about him not having yet released the full version of the theme, but look at what they have to fall back on. People are entitled to object if the person they have been lavishing praise on for months can't even come to tell them to go blow hot air somewhere else.

I have been avoiding using this theme for a while, as it would just make me wonder what has become of the final project. But I haven't been able to contain myself and have started using it again. I enjoy it greatly, and am eager for a final, completed release. I don't care if B0se comes to tell us that he has abandoned this project altogether, but it would be nice to know something.

Flame me if you want, but I have stated my feelings rationally, and with understanding of the hard work that B0se puts into these themes. This is an open and free forum, and all of our opinions should be valued, even if you disagree with them.

I agree with you 100%

Everyone is rehashing the same thing about b0se having a life. I and some others, fully understand that he has a life. We get that he is freely putting time and effort into this vs. We understand that it is his choice to stop work on it if he so desires.

As stated by SakuraKira, it would just be nice if we could get a clear "it will never be finished" or something similar. It grows a little old after being let down from the "finishing it for next week" statements from deviant art that never come to pass. I like to think I have been patient with waiting for this great vs. On that note, it has been over a year since the original mockups for this were posted. It shouldn't be too hard to see how a person's patience could grow a little thin when waiting for something that is supposedly still coming out...

You took the words right out of my mouth.

I believe people were so overly aggressive to the 'flamers' to begin was with that still had the patience to wait, I admit I was in that group. But now as my patience has gone out the window your post reflects exactly what I think.

And like you said, it's nothing personal to b0se at all, just getting to the stage of is it abandoned?

It's now Oct.23, 2006! When will the wait for the final release end?

good god people ! the theme is FREE he isnt getting paid to do the work imho if you want the theme get a copy of stylebuilder and get to work . whent he theme is ready he will release it . HELL if i was him i wouldnt release it just becuase of the BIG ASS BABYS that post QQing becuase its on released

I agree with SakuraKira's view.

B0se's work is fantastic and much respected, so when we see/use a preview of his latest work, we'll be dying for it to be finished. And it can feel a bit empty when its said to released within a weeks.. then there's not sign of life for months after. Iam quite aware B0se has a very busy life of his own, it would just be nice if we could get clarity on the situation. Were all huge fans of b0se's work, and I am sure we'll see something great from him soon. And I hope he's all right too

So I ask AGAIN, why keep this thread in THIS subforum? No point.

Well technically this is a release, even though it's in Beta stage. People are able to download and use this theme, and it's pretty bug free. I guess it's only "incomplete" as far as it doesn't yet meet the final vision that the creator has for the theme. So in the end, this is the correct subforum. :/

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Sadly, that is the state of things. It's basically considered acceptable for any random app running on your computer to use 1+ GB of RAM, and install space, lol, no one even seems to consider that.
    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple This week at Apple’s 2026 developers conference, the iPhone maker unveiled the upgraded Siri after more than a year of delays. The new Siri is now called Siri AI, and it's powered by Google Gemini models. While Siri AI is preparing to roll out to Apple users worldwide, the company’s EU customers might need to wait much longer before getting their hands on the new assistant. Shortly after announcing iOS 27, Apple said in a blog post that Siri AI is not coming to the EU anytime soon due to hurdles posed by the Digital Markets Act (DMA) and other regulatory requirements. To comply with the DMA in the EU, Apple apparently needs to open Siri AI to rival assistants on iOS 27 and iPadOS 27. Apple has refused to do so, which has resulted in Siri AI being delayed for its EU users. The company argues that such a move would put users’ privacy at risk. In a statement to Neowin, a European Commission spokesperson provided more details about why Siri AI will not be rolled out to Apple customers in the region. The statement first noted that the DMA does not prohibit Apple from launching its services in the EU and that the company is simply required to comply with the law. The European Commission spokesperson added that, since Apple is considered a gatekeeper under the DMA, it is “obliged to give third parties access to equivalent features as they give to its own products. Because the DMA is precisely about giving users the choice to use the product they find best suits their needs.” Moreover, the spokesperson said the Commission has been in contact with Apple, though the company “did not develop proposals for DMA compliant interoperability solutions.” The statement also clarified that companies designated as gatekeepers cannot leverage their status and products, such as operating systems, to favor their own AI services. The first public beta of iOS 27 will roll out next month, while the stable version is expected to launch this fall following the release of the iPhone 18 series. It remains unclear when Apple will be able to resolve its DMA-related compliance issues with the European Commission and bring Siri AI to its European customers.

    • This has been on the roadmap for years, nothing really new here. This is one of the few areas where Microsoft is making Windows better. Universal print is a very good things and so far works as expected. The last step is ending the option for 3rd parties to add traditional custom drivers. It is somewhat of a hurdle, but it is for a long-term good. The downside is that printer manufactures are likely going to use this as an excuse to force users onto new printers. Considering this roadmap has been public for years, then printers sold during that time should be covered...but I'm sure they will have a different opinion.
