It doesn't look that much different than the default theme.... You can change the window color to be a closer match (if not identical) to the one in the pictures; the only real difference I can see is the taskbar and sidebar, which are translucent white, not translucent black, and the sidebar has a definitive edge on the left side of it instead of fading to nothing.

Am I not seeing what makes this so different?

THANK YOU FOR RE POSTING THESE PHOTOS! I have been looking all over for them and the old topic got archived somewhere... Ok. Yes! I love this theme and I'm hoping somebody makes this for the upcoming window blinds for Vista. In any case, I'll take a shot at it when the time comes. YAY!!! I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!

Ever since Windowblinds for Vista has come out I have been eagerly awaiting this visual style. I really like how this looks. However, I can swear I've seen a sidebar skin that mimics that one though. I'll look for it, and post if I can find it.

EDIT: http://www.download.joejoe.org/index.php?s...5b610bbc638a89e

The next to last one is an imitation of the sidebar. Now we just need to wait for a WB skin.

Yeah, this looks AMAZING... Of all the few themes available for Vista NONE have a clean, professional look. I'd even pay for it if someone ported this concept to WindowBlinds 5.5. The only minor thing I don't like about it is the rounded search button, it should be a rectangle like the address bar sitting right next to it.. The other thing I LOVE about this theme is that the taskbar is not horizontally spanned across the entire screen. Imagine if a person had 2 monitors though, and the taskbar would continue on to the next display and then "close" it. That would be pretty nice! :woot:

Wow, that looks great! I really wish Microsoft would release it!

That new flip3d thing with soft shadows and a blurred out background looks amazing! Vista is capable of it, as evidenced by the pictures, so Microsoft should release it for people to play with. It'd generate some buzz for sure.

    • I got this notification just now in Android: So I went in to disable the "Other" or "Marketing" notifications in Notifications management: But it came through the Now Playing? So if I disable that I no longer get what's Now Playing in Notifications? I'm a paying subscriber, not on the free plan... can they sink any lower?
    • Population especially in high density areas creates more heat and more humidity. This can be noticed in an indoor arena or concert room which heats up when the room or arena fills with people, without air conditoning to cool it down, Watering of lawns creates more humidity as the moisture from the watering rises into the atmosphere, creating a more humid condition. The again, depopulating an arena or room after an event will drop the temperature inside. Desert areas are less humid for a number of reasons, including a lower population density. Tel Aviv has horrible weather, unless you like it hot and humid. Summer days are regularly 90+ F with humidity well over 70%. It is probably not as bad as Mississippi but still it is bad enough.

    • I hear you on browser password manager, in my case I have two Google profiles, one was created when Google decided to grandfather us out of Workspace for Domains (with the replacement being too expensive for 25 users) resulting in my domain email address no longer being able to be registered to a new Workspace I created (for myself and another co-owner) so I could use Takeout and sync over some stuff to the new Workspace. Then I have my personal Google profile which I could be logged into on my desktop or Mobile, so I am saving passwords on one or the other, and when an URL changes another password for the same service gets added, it basically ends up being a giant mess. Unless I missed something is there a local decent password manager that can override the browser password managers for Chrome, Edge, Firefox (profiles) so that there is only one vault, and does that also support Passkeys (which to me are still confusing because sometimes it will ask for a Passkey on a phone I am no longer using!) Microsofts implementation of Passkeys is the worst!
    • It's utterly baffling that we have no idea when we'll get new features even well after they've been released. Why Microsoft thinks this is a good rollout strategy is beyond me.
