^I can't help that I'm bored of working on it. Doing new stuff is much more fun :p

Also, I might make a completely new theme for black.

At the rate you're going, you might as well release a Rose version, or maybe even a Pink version, complete with scented taskbar :p .

I'm NEVER going to make a pink version :p

There will be a black version of Blue SE which wont be a new theme. It also wont be the same as the previous black theme. I want to make a black version without all the orange elements.

Is the taskbar being skinned correctly now?

No, i patched it before using a replacement tool. The picture is what it looks like after..

Keep in mind the top application bar has the right blue color. along with the taskbar colors when an application is blinking.

so its like half working.

I really think you're having issues with the Uxtheme Patch.

You should make thread here: Customizing Windows XP. More people will see the problem and probably more people can help as well. I also want to keep this thread for Watercolor Emico :)

How about leaving the orange elements in and making an Orange version? :)

I was more thinking about a black version with blue controls. I've already tried an orange color in the mockup and it didn't look that good. The SE version is not going to be milked with a series of colors. It's either another version from black or no extra version at all :p

I do have an idea for an orange color scheme. I had it for sometime now and I wanted it to be a secret theme. IF I'm going to make it, it won't be the typical orange theme you're thinking of. It won't be the same as the other themes either since I want it to have a beige taskbar.

But, don't set your hopes up to high. Olive is the theme that I'm working on right now and that's a boring theme for me to work on. I never used an olive theme in the past and I won't use any in the future either. Only this one to test it out. Orange is a color that I also wouldn't want to be using as the main color in a theme. So, don't expect an orange theme yet.

Why not a bronze theme then :p ?

That's also to boring for me to be working on :p It actually has to be a color that I would want to use as well. Such as a black version from Blue SE.

zomg I'm dying to know what SE looks like now. XD

I feel the same way about Olive. It's a nice color to look at occasionally, or if you have some random accessory (real life accessory I mean), but I don't think I would want to be constantly looking at the color. I think MS did well with their Olive Luna though, since they included a lot of beige elements to tone it down a bit.

Keep up the good work! :heart:

My olive theme will have the same color scheme as Olive Luna. So a red-ish color for button, sliders and checkbox hovers. It'll also have the same beige color as Blue.

Blue SE mockups are almost done. I still have to go through a few tings before I start compiling it. Remember though, Blue SE is just a working titel. The released version will have a different name.

I only suggested it as your theme colours remind me of the amount of colours the PSP Lite are offered :p . They've just released a Ruby Red and Matte Bronze hence my suggestion to you.

Not that I'm asking you to take up my suggestion :laugh: .

^It's going to be released next week. I wanted to work on it today but I decided to take a break this weekend :p

@Scirwode: Thank god :p I think that Olive will be the last color besides Blue SE.

    • LibreOffice developer takes a dig at Euro-Office in new open letter

      By Ccl Ncc · Posted

      I have never been a huge fan of libre, it feels really good but exactly when you need an advance feature for data wrangling it falls short every time or has bugs. I am all for euro office if they can deliver a good and usable alternative to MS office with backing of govt function.
    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      Go on, I'll bite. How does windows (nice comment on an 'article' which doesn't actually involve it ) lock users out of their data then? Been using it since 3.1 back in 92 and not once have I been locked out of my data? Perhaps you mean Bitlocker? In which case the average user (who doesn't mess about) will have been forced to use a MSA, and in which case the recovery key would have been saved to said account..... If the user did happen to bodge around and not use an MSA then Bitlocker wouldn't have become live (as it cannot without a safe place to store the key) I want to point out Bitlocker and MSA are not connected and you can of course force it on without a safe place to store the key, but you do that with your eyes open. So your standard consumer who knows no better sets up an MSA, gets bitlocker and a recovery key stored off box, with a route to reset their password. All of this notwithstanding the fact, if your data is important, you back it up, no ifs, no buts, no-ones responsibility other than your own. Important data lives in at least two locations, one of which is offline and recovery is tested, otherwise that data wasn't really that important. Disks, fail, laptops get lost, phones end up down the toilet, tablets get stolen, if your only copy of data is on a single device you're doing it wrong.
    • Apple unveils Siri AI, a "reimagined" version of SIri

      Clearly that feature isn't for us. It's for the ad spam marketers so they can more directly target us about going to places we might want to go again...but without understanding context clues. Like for the flight someone took for a friend's funeral. We want to be reminded of that every time we open an app, a browser, or email, right? Right, Siri?
    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list by Aditya Tiwari Apple kicked off WWDC 2026 with a ton of announcements, mostly centered around Apple Intelligence improvements, the Siri AI, and Liquid Glass updates. However, there is a lot of other stuff that couldn't catch the limelight. Let's talk about watchOS 27 and which models are supported by the newest operating system. According to the Cupertino giant, watchOS 27 will be supported on the following Apple Watch models when it arrives later this year: Apple Watch Ultra 3 Apple Watch Series 11 Apple Watch SE 3 Apple Watch Series 10 Apple Watch Ultra 2 It's a stark contrast with last year's watchOS 26 update, which had almost a dozen Apple Watch models in its list of supported devices. Apple supported models all the way back to Apple Watch Series 6. That said, if you own one of the five models, you'll need an iPhone 11 (or later) with iOS 27 to install the latest update. Yes, Apple has shown some extra love to the iPhone 11, and it old horse supports the iOS 27 update. watchOS 27 beta 1 is now available for developers and interested power users through the Apple Developer Program. So, if you're among those who like to play with fire, you can download it to your supported Apple Watch. Otherwise, the public beta for watchOS 27 will be available next month. The freshly baked Apple Watch update comes with Siri AI - an advanced, fully conversational version of Siri powered by Apple Intelligence due for later this year. A new dynamic app grid features icons for five Siri-suggested apps. You can use a new tap gesture to open a widget in the Smart Stack, and a new Find My app finally clears the mess of Find Devices, Find Items, and Find People on Apple Watch. Workout Buddy can run without an iPhone nearby and offers new insights based on data, including your progress for pace, distance, and workout duration. Apple improved its motion tracking algorithms to measure the distance of indoor treadmill runs and walks more precisely. Speaking of other changes, the music playback on watchOS 27 starts faster and you can create custom passes for any membership or card that uses a QR code or barcode, then easily access them in the Wallet app or pin in the Smart Stack.

      "and pull old flight details from your email during back-and-forth conversations" The Siri I've become to know and trust. I've always wanted to pull info on old flights. /s
