Great Mod man!

but I have a question. I followed you tutorial on making VS for vista (great read by the way. short and to the point). But I had a couple of problems:

1. I tested my understanding on the windows orb. after I extracted the right images I used photoshop to edit them, and just to make sure I used the alpha converter app too. This was fine. but when I put them back in the file, and then loaded the theme, I got the terrible white background. To check matters futher I went back to photoshop and cropped the relevant files so they'd have no empty areas beyond the image itself. This removed the background, but pushed the orb to the side of he screen, as now it didn't have that space that was defined in the image file.

2. I really want to use you thin taskbar template, but for some reason I don't see any difference between the normal and max transparency version. Can you maybe show me which resource in your template I need to edit (wither image or text) in order to make the taskbar a. matt looking b. transparent.

I really respect your efforts for this community by the way. You are a true sharer.

cheers.

Quick question. Is this open to the community to mod?

I planned on doing something like this for my next VS. So would that be alright to download and modify?

Thanks to anyone who can answer this for me.

Try reading the thread. The answer is already there.

I really want to use this, I'd love a thinner task bar but I get this message from VistaGlazz:

"One or more of the VistaGlazz essential system files are corrupt."

Should I try re-downloading and re-installing the application or try a different method to patch my system?

    • Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts

      By zikalify · Posted

      Linux 7.1 arrives with an NTFS overhaul and major hardware performance boosts by Paul Hill The founder of the Linux kernel has just announced the availability of Linux 7.1. This is a stable version of the kernel that will now be tested by various Linux distributions before it is shipped to users through update managers. Some users, like those on Debian, for example, might not get it for a long time, if at all, while Fedora users can expect it in the near future. With Linux 7.1 out on time, the merge window for Linux 7.2 is now open, giving contributors the opportunity to send in major new features that have been waiting for the last two months. Torvalds warned that he is currently travelling and will be in another timezone, so timing for the merge window may be irregular due to timezone differences and limited internet access. Torvalds said that he has already fetched early pull requests to allow him to do some offline work, but the travel could still cause disruption. Right now, he is not planning to extend the release, but did consider it. He said he might later regret not extending, though. In terms of this last week of development for Linux 7.1, Torvalds said there were no major or alarming changes. This week consisted mostly of smaller driver updates to GPU, networking, and sound, networking fixes, trace tooling fixes, and misc minor fixes. The shortlog this week lists fixes for driver bugs, memory leaks, I/O and USB fixes, networking and RDMA fixes, DRM/graphics fixes, and tooling and verification improvements. Specific fixes include USB series heap-overflow and buffer overflow fixes, and multiple use-after-free, memory-leak, and refcount corrections across subsystems such as i2c, zram, gpio, and net. There are fixes for graphics drivers, including amdgpu, i915, and virtio, as well as hypervisor and virtualization tweaks affecting mshv, vmbus, and hyperv. According to Phoronix, anyone running Linux 7.1 should look out for the new NTFS driver, Intel FRED for improved performance on Panther Lake and future CPUs, faster graphics with Intel Arc Battlemage, and improvements for older AMD Radeon GPUs. If you are running Linux on your computer and everything is fine, then you don’t need to worry about updating to Linux 7.1 as a priority; just wait for it to be pushed to you. If you have tried Linux on hardware but it didn’t work properly, trying again with a distro that uses Linux 7.1 could cause Linux to work on your machine, thanks to the new hardware support.
