Special thanks goes to everaldo for the icons and permission.

Hey Honz, your logoff is cool, I do like the penguin and the gray matchs the start menu. I might choose to use this one instead. I still want to see what it looks like on my system. Well see :)1

Solace, I might give a second option for the windows logo. I'll try this afternoon. I don't really have access to a windows logo off hand unless I just used the one that honz orignally used. But might be a little hard to remove.

A boot screen would be cool. Boot screens are what? 256 color right? I might take a try at it. This logoff stuff was really my first attempt at editing the windows dll files without previous stuff done. I had edited aim from time to time. But, nothing released. I wonder how a boot screen would look.

awesome, you rule :), i can prolly fix the logo myself anyway if i so choose to ;)

thanks again

If your talkin about it being a little off in vertical yes I know. I didn't really feel like doing it yesterday. But if your talking about doing a windows logo, then yeah.

Neo, I like that, but the blue seems too light. And having a image there at least that big will be partly covered up on the turn off dialog if im not mistaken.

Looks pretty cool, but I'm sticking with the grey. I think the grey looks fine (and there is a lot of greys in the theme)

One small minor detail, your penguin seems to take the focus away from the purpose of the panel........it's only a logoff panel ;)

hmmmm, I think I mis-phrased in my last post. I didn't mean the penguin takes the purpose away.........I meant it distracts from the purpose. Your eye is drawn the bottom left corner to marvel at the cute little guy, rather than clicking the buttons, which is why you opened the panel in the first place!!:p

Try lowering the opacity of the penguin so that it merges in with the background, the cuteness is still there, but not full-on in your face.

someone should put all the downloads in one page so we can all just visit that instead of having 100 different pages... :)

Trillian: will work on it at the weekend.

It was a joint effort :) I still perfer mine. But mainly just too damn lazy to switch again hehe. If anything needs hosting as long as its not too big, I can probley do it. But I only allow so much bandwitdh a day. Mainly because my bandwidth for my site is high.

    • Windows 11 is now five years old

      By ad47uk · Posted

      Still hate Windows 11, I stuck it on my gaming machine again just for a nose to see what they had done, still as bad. Will restore Windows 10 back on it, suit MS anyway, they don't want me to run Windows 11 on it.

      Ms did go with the you must sign into an account thing with Windows 8 for a while. The same sort of thing they are doing with Windows now and the MS account.
    • Microsoft Authenticator - Constant Login Approval Requests

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, What sort of Microsoft Authenticator account login approval requests are you getting?  It is a generic authentication app and can be used with all sorts of services (Microsoft Account, Google Account, websites and services that support multi-factor authentication, etc.). Regards, Aryeh Goretsky

      Windows 8? Nah. I found Window 8 worked well, get a third party start menu to get rid of the start screen, I used Start is back and windows 8 was pretty good. I used it even when Windows 10 came out as I found Windows 10 was iffy on my machine at the time was AMD FX Bulldozer based. It was only when I updated the innards to Ryzen that I had no choice but to go to Windows 10 as MS made it difficult to stay with Windows 8. ME, yes, that was not great, I liked the look of it, but it was not stable, shame really because Windows 98SE was the best of the dos based Windows.
