Hey this looks great, I hope you're still updating it. Could you change the text on an inactive window, though? It is almost unreadable.
Got loads of uni coursework at the moment so its on the shelf at the minute, when I get some spare time I'll release a normal sized taskbar version, and updates making the theme a bit softer all round (buttons and tabs) and a generic start button that won't bug people :)

I'll change the inactive text also :ninja:

this theme rocks

but for some reason it doesnt work with wmp9's auto menu show thing..

neither did the coco theme.

fix that too please 

Will try and fix that too!

Also could you make the Start Menu compact? Not like in mini mac but theres a great theme with a funky "compact" start menu heres a link so you can take a look http://www.themexp.org/view_info.php?id=15629 it's really nice and minimalistic yet it's got that cool look to it. Really great idea.

Hi,

Update is nearly done, couple of tiny things left. Got a lot of uni work atm though so finishing a bit of that first.

folio: I've never seen that come up when using either v1 or Classic, but I know what it is. It was a test theme (which turned into b0se v1), and that particular image somehow stayed in the the style (but was not visible through StyleBuilder).

I'll fix that too :)

Grrrr! Releasing a theme to thousands of starving fans is more important than uni work ! Where are people prioties these days! hehe 

Hehe :)

I'll have one piece done by tonight, when I finish it I'll have plenty of time to finish the theme. I can only upload from uni though, since this 56k connection is completely unreliable (plus Demon suck).

It will be uploaded to deviantArt on thursday at about 1pm (UK)!

I'm very sorry about the delay, on that thursday I found out that a deadline had been brought forward a week, been working on coursework non-stop and haven't had time to finish.

Got **** loads to do for wednesday, so it won't be finished before then. :(

Final year of uni, so obviously it gets preference over a theme

Must get on, will post when its done soz for delay

Excellent theme bOse. Perfect this and it will be VERY VERY good, mayb even knock watercolor off my comps screen, who knows ...

Also, i must complement you on your hardware. Very nice system youv got hooked up :)

Cant wait for the update ... good luck with that and the rest of your (important uni) work.

:no: damn he's selfish! all about HIM and his EDUCATION,come on it's not like it's going to effect your whole LIFE... oh ya wait hehe :blush:

But anyway back on topic WEDENSDAY! :o ah well, you better be doing damn good in university, starving us poor theme mongers.

Good luck at that degree/ba/ma.

    • Here is how I fixed Windows 11 not booting after clean installation by Taras Buria Story time. A couple of weeks ago, I experienced a very odd thing with my computers. I was trying to reinstall Windows 11 on my primary device, and everything was going smoothly until the installer performed the first restart. After that, my computer entered the boot disk selection screen instead of continuing the setup process. Huh, that's odd, said I, and selected Windows Boot Manager only to see it fall back into the same screen right away. Then I tried booting from the USB drive with the same result—the PC kept returning to the boot device selection screen, and removing the drive would send my PC to UEFI, again, with no way to launch Windows 11. I fired up my spare laptop, which has been sitting unused for quite a while, to see if I am dealing with a defective USB drive. Nope, Windows 11 installed and started without issues. After trying another drive and checking all the possible settings in UEFI, I decided to try disabling Secure Boot. Lo and behold, Windows 11 started as it should have been in the first place, continued the setup process, and reached the initial setup screen. Victory! After I finished the setup and applied all updates, I re-enabled Secure Boot, and Windows 11 started without issues. Some time later, I tried reinstalling Windows 11 on my laptop only to experience similar issues, with UEFI claiming a Secure Boot violation. I checked whether the drive works on my main PC, and yes, it installed Windows 11 without errors. I scratched my head, went to UEFI, turned off Secure Boot, and installed Windows 11 without issues. After that, I enabled Secure Boot. Note: I used the official Media Creation Tool app for my USB drive. Also, UEFI was properly configured for Windows 11, including no Legacy Mode, a GPT-partitioned drive, and TPM and Secure Boot enabled. From my experience, if you are dealing with similar symptoms, I recommend two things: If you use old Windows 11 install media, create a new one with the latest Windows 11 release, especially if you know your PC already has the latest Secure Boot certificates. If you cannot create a new one, turn off Secure Boot, complete the installation, download all available updates, and then re-enable Secure Boot in UEFI. Note that you need to turn off Secure Boot after installing Windows 11. Otherwise, the installer won't run, claiming a hardware requirements mismatch. I believe the problem hides in Secure Boot certificates that expire this month. Microsoft is currently rolling out new certificates, and maybe a mismatch was causing these issues for both of my systems. I am out of my depth to make a definitive statement; this article is flagged as "Opinion," as I only share my experience and some tips on how to fix the problem. If some of you possess deeper knowledge and understanding of the situation, please share it in the comments. As for everyone else struggling with computers not booting after a clean install, the two steps above should get you out of the pickle.
    • I gave the tool a chance the other day to make a USB. An hour later it was stuck at 0% downloaded. I downloaded the official ISO, downloaded Rufus, and made the USB myself in 15 min.
    • <Moved to software discussion and support> I've got fond memories of Winamp. Changing the skins, the different visualisations etc. But now I just need a simple music player. MSN messenger would be another one, MSN Messenger Plus (I think?) offered so many different plugins. But again, it probably wouldn't work for me these days. And then there is miRC. i think it's still going these days, but lord i had fun with that back in the day. Now it's mostly stuff like Discord, WhatsApp group chats, Signal, Telegram... /me is showing his age...
    • ive always been fascinated by old software this is an old video player for windows from apple
