Will the Crystal Msstyle ONLY work for XP. Is there ANY way for it to work on another OS??? And when i went to the official page of crystal mssytle the page just kept loading and loading and loading......i have 56k. Do i just keep waiting or will it load FOREVER?!!!!! AHHHHHH

small, minor, tiny graphical glitch Tim:

i take it the ugly white pixels aren't supposed to be there?

EDIT: actually i think it happens to titlebar buttons that are not available, but i'm not sure if it happens to all of them or not. just noticed it while installing norton systemworks too.

Here is the PNG start button replacement. The original is named KMENU.PNG. You can either REPLACE or change the IMG in stylebuilder.

I'm not EXTREMELY happy with it, I may or may not work on it anymore, but it gives you guys an idea of what would look nice if nothing else :).

Here is a User Icon to use that matches the gradient.

I don't get it...Zooming on your img shows no bug...

red and green colored buttons seem to be surrounded more by blended shadow, but the grey blends to white (or light grey) and then blue, which in inconsistent. really not a biggie but just pointing it out.

Non-related, but I'm proud of my Crystal too...Note I'm not using YZ Shadow, The shadow for the menu is part of the editted WALLPAPER. Anyone done this before? Uses much less CPU power, and reduces BLOATWARE! :)

That's an old, old wallpaper trick...prolly everybody and their mother who's made walls has added a drop shadow underneath where the toolbar goes at one time or another :p

Y'z Shadow bloatware? You have got to be kidding, right? LMAO You must be talking about WindowFX ;) heh

Try this: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=2539 ;)

Made by everaldo. Well they are not really icons, but pngs try to convert it to icons using Axialis IconWorkshop. It's very easy. :D

I don't know about most of you all but I really really needed a black version. I like black it's a nice dark color and doesn't hurt yoru eyes so I modded two things, the Crystal Msstyle and the wallpaper previously posted by Opio.. or a link to it for that matter. I am STILL awaiting permission for Tim to let me release it, see my other post. Tim.. man.. I need your permission can I?.

If you don't like it, thats fine. Don't flame it though, I hate flamers.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
