This is my first post...My friend JC posted a News regarding WinBubble before. Thank you very much!

Now, I started coding the next version of WinBubble. Soon I will post some screenshots.

Please support it.

WinBubble 1.5

Again, Thank you!

You're welcome...

----------------tune up...

Sorry, i don't know about other softwares, related to WinBubble. I've created WinBubble because

of the questions and difficulties I encountered while creating a blog regarding tweaks, customization and hacks

in Windows Vista.

WinBubble Update----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next version of WinBubble.

*More customizations

*Additional tweaks

*Clean-looking GUI (New classification of features)

:)

I like this mainly because of the extra options for the Vista screen savers. I knew about these before, but I wasn't going to go out of my way to enable them..I mean, I'm not a much of a screen saver person. Overall this is a nice little tweaker. Ill be interested to see where it goes from here.

Thanks solardog.

Me, too. I'm not a fun of screensaver.

But according to my study. Most of the vista users, I've encountered (Not nerds)

They love the screensaver of Vista. That's the first thing that they have noticed before

buying their laptop in stores.

WinBubble is focused on what the users want. Not for the nerds but for ALL.

Same with my blog.

The next version will have more customizations. Version 1.5

hello BMW_CHUBB

You can host this on your website...

Just don't forget to put my website as a source.

Example:

Creator's Homepage

If there's enough traffic I get from your website. (Everyday)

I'll put your website on the download page(Logo is included).

Anyway, What's the name of your website?

Hey JC thanks! I'll be going back from my business trip in Jpn next year. See you soon!

I'm lucky 4 websites gave winBubble an award.

    • Can you read? I've said I'm willing to pay more for a notchless (no notch) 3:2 screen.
    • Not even an OLED display on the laptops. Also it seems that the laptop design isn't the same as the Surface Ultra model. Looks like bargain bin at high prices.
    • make your own notch - it's not that hard
    • VirtualBox 7.2.10 by Razvan Serea VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Targeted at server, desktop and embedded use, it is now the only professional-quality virtualization solution that is also Open Source Software. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, 7, 8, Windows 10 and Windows 11), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4, 2.6, 3.x, 4.x, 5.x and 6.x), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, OpenBSD, NetBSD and FreeBSD. Some of the features of VirtualBox are: Modularity. VirtualBox has an extremely modular design with well-defined internal programming interfaces and a client/server design. This makes it easy to control it from several interfaces at once: for example, you can start a virtual machine in a typical virtual machine GUI and then control that machine from the command line, or possibly remotely. VirtualBox also comes with a full Software Development Kit: even though it is Open Source Software, you don't have to hack the source to write a new interface for VirtualBox. Virtual machine descriptions in XML. The configuration settings of virtual machines are stored entirely in XML and are independent of the local machines. Virtual machine definitions can therefore easily be ported to other computers.

    • OK, now ask yourself how are they going to enforce that law? By requiring every single adult to prove their age and provide their legal identity documents to an UNREGULATED 3rd party company that already has a long track record of multiple data breaches. Not to mention, parliament have voted AGAINST this ban, twice, and Starmer is going ahead anyway. So, where's the democracy here, because that looks like dictatorship to me. The solution here is parental responsibility, not government control. Run some public service announcements on TV and UK social media teaching parents how to setup parental controls. That's already been proven to actually work. But the, this is not and has NEVER been about keeping kids safe. It's about control and monitoring. Watching what you're doing online and controlling what you can see and what you can say.
