whats the best way to replace the start button icon with the new one ?

use ResHacker. Open the .msstyle with it, browse to a bitmap with the word START_BUTTON in it, or something similar. Also make sure it's the start button for the color you're using.

Then just right click on the bitmap and choose replace resource.

Ryu, you're a genius.

Absolutely great.

Now, I'm gonna want to use those buttons for the WMP taskbar controls, so I don't have to make all the new colors myself.

Whose permission do I need for them? Yours? Arts? Saint Dark's?

PM me. Thanks.

You worded it right and I answered it right. ;)

Blue in Classix was dark to being with. Ergnomic, which was added later, was based off of the Ergnomic blue color in Watercolor. Hence it's not reversed, it's just the way it is.

And yes, names are just names... and I was just answering your question. :)

Gotcha.

Now I understand!

;)

The best way is to Import the style in stylebuilder to a folder. Let's say C:\Classix.

Exit Stylebuilder.

Then go to the folder than contains the new button. If you are replacing for SD add SD to the name of each folder.

Select all the folders.

Copy them to the C:\Classix folder. Answer yes when it gives the warning a/b folder already exists.

It now has replaced the image.

Open StyleBuilder back up.

Modify ContentMargins to -50, 75, 1, 1 on the StartButton for each color scheme.

Press Zip and then you have your new theme.

Well the buttons are the buttons from the VIsual Style, now some symble's are Art's so you would have to ask them too.

You have my permission to use all you want from my WMP9 skins. :)

All of the reported issues have been fixed and an update will be posted in a few hours.

Those of you who subscribed to the list in 'Digest Mode' will not be receiving emails as soon as they're sent which is why most of you didn't get the last email. When you're in Digest mode the emails are collected then sent as one email at a later time. I just changed an option in the list so hopefully all of you will get the next email as soon as it's sent.

Thanks BuG ;) The default start button in the next update will be the one with the 'Start' text since most people seem to prefer that one.

Thanks monofonik, heh :s

Why does Classix Green have a blue shellstyle? :/ Am I doing something wrong?

Edit: And Classix Blue doesnt even have a shellstyle??

Weird! I found the error. I copied the shellstyle from the "Green" folder to "NormalColor" and it works now. Green is reading from NormalColor and Blue is reading from nowhere? :s Bug?

    • When will the Photos app be updated to remember the window size and position when reopened? They addressed this issue in a 2024 version of the app (though I can't recall the build number). Unfortunately, after that specific version, the problem persists! Please prioritise this fix in your K2 schedule. Additionally, the Snipping Tool has lost the ability to capture the Windows Taskbar starting from the 2024 version!
    • Same, never saw it on Android or iOS. Guess only some people got it *shrugs*
    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
