When i saw this thred i thought: WOAH... finally Dazzla made it again!!!

I really love the taskbar feature of wmp9 but is really ****ing how it match with other themes than luna! :(

Well I hope Dazzla start make some wmp9 taskbar skins, 'cause i've tried the one he made with the beta version and don't work with the final. I also noticed that the modified version is 1,9mb and the original is 2,7mb.... :)

Not that im whinning, but I would really like to see a good classic skinned bar ;)

I'll do that, I'm really into classic now. There's a slight problem though, I haven't yet figured out how to stop it resizing the taskbar. I've made it so the media player part of the taskbar is thin, but the rest still expands. Maybe I'll stumble across a value somewhere :unsure:

I've been working on this for a couple hours and would like some feedback on it. Anything I should change? Is it good? So far, it's coming along well, but isn't even close to done... I'm merely modifying a screen capture of the original, this isn't a screen capture of any WMP skin yet.

It looks great for me, im using Luna default shell style :)

So, keep up the good work :)

I might change to other shell style...

but for now ive decided that Luna is bug free...

Until ThemeXP.org change server (..... damn it's long..), ill stay with MS style :)

I've revised it a little... I am in the process of making the arrows (play, pause, forward etc.) white to better match the Luna theme. Also I wanted it to be obvious that there was something resting on the desktop, not just a bunch of arrows sitting there as though they are shortcuts, so I made the left side of it look like a window, and then made it fade out. Tell me what you think.

    • Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 headphones are down to lowest price in over a month

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Bose QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 headphones are down to lowest price in over a month by Taras Buria Bose's second-gen QuietComfort Ultra headphones are premium over-ear headphones with noise cancellation, but right now, you can save 16%, thanks to a discount that brought the headphones to a new lowest price in over a month. While the general look and aesthetics remain unchanged compared to the previous gen, the Gen 2 features redesigned wear-detection sensors, which accurately pause your music the moment you take them off. Additionally, the headphones now support lossless audio via a direct USB-C wired connection, letting you enjoy uncompressed sound when plugged into your laptop or phone. There is also spatial audio support (works wirelessly) for a more immersive audio experience and improved noise cancellation, which makes the QuietComfort Ultra go-to headphones for many users on long flights or other scenarios when they need to isolate themselves from the surrounding noise. The QuietComfort Ultra (Gen 2) also features Bluetooth Multipoint for seamless switching between two devices at once. As for battery life, you get up to 30 hours on a single charge (up to 23 hours when using spatial audio). Besides good audio quality and noise cancellation, the headphones should be comfortable to wear, thanks to the lightweight 250-gram design and soft protein-leather ear pads. The QuietComfort Ultra Gen 2 are available in four colors, and all five are now available at the lowest price: Bose QuietComfort Ultra Bluetooth Headphones (2nd Gen) - $379 | 16% off on Amazon This Amazon deal is US-specific and not available in other regions unless specified.

      By fingletmein · Posted

      Keep in mind Intuit has lobbied like crazy to keep taxes complicated so they can continue to sell tax software. They also got caught hiding their legally mandated free version so they could release a second one that pushed countless people into charges they didn't need to pay to file. Intuit leads the charge on inventing problems so they can sell you the solution and disrespecting you in the process.
    • EA Sports UFC 6 review: Brutal, satisfying, and surprisingly accessible to newcomers

      By Figure 8 Dash · Posted

      Oddly, there was a time that UFC games were culturally relevant, largely because of the graphics and gameplay that was different than the norm. But it seems like as the sport grew in popularity, gaming outlets stopped talking about the games.
