Can't wait for the Trillian skin :p

I must say...my PC has never looked as good as it does atm.

Congratualtions to all the various skinners in this forum who are obviously talented in the art of graphics.

:p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p :p

One tiny thing I've noticed for the Winamp 2.** skin; when the volume bar is at 0%, it's not all the way to the edge (left) side of the area.

It's just something small, so you can put that at the bottom of your todo list :D Just letting you know about it though, if you don't already :)

P.S.

Sorry if you don't understand my Winamp terms :p

Echo this statement. Couldn't have said it better.

Blak this is more of a shortfall of winamp....the volume slider has to remain visible at 0% to look correct on the higher settings when using a rounded graphic for the slider. Hope this explains it. ;)

It looks like you did not use the background that is made for the buttons, so the colors dont match ;)

If that is not the problem, rebuild the icon cache, and reboot :)

hehe, OK...to me it looks like a fake bar on the wallpaper, and the normal dektop icons have been placed on it....that's all. However I'm sure I could quite easily be proved wrong.

To Answer fazeowns' last question, looks, like they hid the desktop icons, then activated the Desktop Toolbar on the TaskBar by right clicking then selecting toolbars>Desktop. Then you could Drag it off of the TaskBar to the edge of the screen , right click on it and select View>Large Icons, and Show Text, then de-select Show Title. That should get you a bar like the one in said screenshot, unless you're like me and have a very messy and clutterd desktop, then you'd just have a lot more icons than shown in the screenshot.

Later

So, now I?m a XP User with the SP1...:pp

Someone know where I can find a turorial wich explain how to change the shell32.dll with Tim?s one?

Maybe someone can tell me what changing the explorer.exe and the other files would effect:):)

Thank you so much...:):)

EDIT: Everything okay, sorry for that. :cheeky:

Nice to see the site back up!!

Like you digidep, I too have been stuck on Crystal since it came out. My only want is to see some hover buttons for the taskbar. But since Tim has moved on, I suppose it won't get done.

I'm really here to say that I was given permission to release the GetRight Crystal skin. I actually posted about this release before Neowin went down a few weeks ago, but apparently those recent posts never got ported to the new boards.

Please note: this skin is intended for registered GetRight users running under Win2k/XP. I have tested the skin with version 5 of GetRight (released yesterday) and all seems well.

Feel free to download the skin from here.

Enjoy!

    • I've owned nothing but ATi/AMD GPUs since 2002, after my last nVidia GPU in 2001 (3dfx before that), IIRC, and in all of that time I recall getting this error maybe once, certainly no more than twice. Despite all the scuttlebutt as to how poor AMD drivers are supposed to be that has certainly not been my experience at all... Usually it has been a configuration problem of some kind. Then again, since we're dealing with OS versions that are EOL, it could easily be an OS version discrepancy. It's still weird to think that Win11 has been officially out for more than five years!
    • AI will never be the jobs panacea some companies fantasize about today. Oracle is likely using it as an excuse, which we will see a lot of companies doing, I'm certain. They love their "plausible" excuses for their downturns. A couple of weeks ago my wife asked me to call Krogers about some discrepancy in a online grocery order, and it will be the last time either of us does that. I'll just do emails with humans from now on... The AI experience was horrible--the obviously recorded voice started asking a bunch of questions about our orders six months prior(!) and saying, "Is this in reference to your order on January 6, for $****?" You say "No!" and immediately the next question is "Is this in reference to your order on January 29th, for $****?" again, I answered "No!"--and it was incredible--on and on it went like that for fully 20 minutes until we finally got to the present, and only then was I put through to a human with authentic intelligence... I wondered why on Earth the idiot AI didn't start with the most recent orders and work back from there, as it was something anyone with a functioning brain would have done. And why didn't the AI have enough sense to ask me what the problem was in the first place? It didn't take too much deduction to understand that the goal of this "AI" was to cause the person on the phone to hang up in disgust, with no resolution of the problem. That begs another question: why pay for a tool-free problem line if the goal is to avoid solving your customer's problems?... Fortunately, Krogers does have real humans capable of reading an email and understanding it, and if she sees another situation in the future that's route she or I will take. The online grocery delivery service from Krogers has been great, over all, but their AI truly sucks.
    • AI is the justification that company administrators use to lay people off; it is not the end all, be all touted in the media (many of whom can't tell a microchip from a potato chip). Greed is main driving factor behind its adoption; the other is remaining relevant in the face of competition from other entities.
    • Firefox 152.0.2 is out with fixes for performance, translation, and cloud storage services by Taras Buria A new bug-fixing update is now rolling out to Firefox users in the Release Channel. Less than a week ago, Mozilla fixed crashes on Intel Raptor Lake processors with version 152.0.1. Now, Mozilla has prepared yet another set of fixes that address problems with localization, playback issues of certain MP4 files, and performance issues on website that perform various encryption operations at once. Here is the full changelog: Firefox 152.0.2 is now available for download from Mozilla's FTP. Existing installations will get the update over the next several hours. The latest version will also be available soon on the official website, the Microsoft Store, and Neowin's Software page. You can find Firefox 152.0.2 release notes in the official documentation. In case you missed it, Mozilla released Firefox 152 earlier this month. The latest feature update brought reworked settings with a more streamlined user interface, JPEG XL support, new features for Private mode, a new way to mute a tab (just type "mute" in the address bar), and many more. You can find the complete changelog here. In other Firefox news, Mozilla recently published its roadmap, where the company detailed the upcoming Nova redesign and other features it plans to implement. Mozilla wants to make the new user interface easier to navigate and more modern, with a heavy focus on its privacy tools, such as its built-in VPN. If you are curious, you can already enable the new UI as described here.
