Download SevenVG Refresh Theme with Superbar for Windows XP


Recommended Posts

Iconized taskbar without any text now works. My word, that is a fat taskbar! I get a blurry orb now - I suppose that's because of its new size.

Overall - pretty nice although I think I preferred a slightly slimmer taksbar and the nearly perfect Orb from first release.

Thank you!

P.S. What I'm calling "blurry" is probably intended, huh? It may grow on me.

P.S.s. The tweak I applied originally to XP to get iconized taskbar - do I need to leave that tweak in place in the registry with this update?

^^ It happens because of the theme. If you use this theme, you'll not get any text in iconized mode.

You can check following themes for Vista:

I just wonder if it's possible to release the fixed iconized mode in a "normal" size taskbar & orb. Please forgive - it's only a personal preference. Maybe no because "Refresh" is more true to upcoming Windows 7? Otherwise, thank you again. :happy:

That taskbar looks MASSIVE.

Can't wait to give it a try. :D The 5.3 MB download size is a tad large - I'd appreciate a download unstuffed with extras, but meh, no big deal.

edit. Fonts.exe? THEME.EXE!? That's not cool, man.

As far as I'm concerned, the massive taskbar takes some getting used to - feels a bit like remedial Windows....

duh, wipe the drool from my chin. :p

This is critique at 7's interface and not at all at theme's author.

Fonts.exe & Theme.exe extract nicely to safe place first using WinRaR. I always prefer to do these things manually for peace of mind.

    • Given only Volume license customers and specific resellers can obtain the LTSC versions legitimately it seems likely that this has been tinkered with quite a lot!
    • Apple CEO Tim Cook confirms looming price hikes due to memory shortages by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Memory and chip shortages have led to significant price increases for electronics over the past year, and it seems that more hikes are on the way for upcoming smartphones and computers. Apple CEO Tim Cook has confirmed that the company is planning to increase the prices of some of its products due to the ongoing memory and storage shortages. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal, Cook confirmed the looming price hikes for Apple’s future products, adding that “Unfortunately, price increases are unavoidable.” He also said the company is doing its best to “mitigate the huge increases that are being passed to us, and we’ve been trying to shield our customers from the increases, but the situation has become unsustainable.” The Apple CEO also noted that the allocation of a large portion of memory chips to AI companies has contributed to shortages in the market, resulting in lower supply at a time when demand for devices remains high. “We definitely need memory pricing and supply to return to reasonable levels for consumer products. That’s the bottom line,” Cook said. Cook also added that Apple is ready to use its vast cash reserves to help boost supply in the market because additional production capacity is needed. While he declined to specify how Apple plans to do that, he said the company will not build its own memory and storage factories despite its financial resources and silicon expertise. Cook did not provide further details on the scale of the price increases or which Apple products would be affected, though iPads and Macs could see higher prices sooner than other products. Apple’s next product launch event is scheduled for September, when the company is expected to unveil the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and its first foldable iPhone. It remains unclear whether the upcoming iPhones will be affected by the price increases, but given the current memory shortage, higher prices seem increasingly likely. There is currently no clear timeline for the end of the memory shortage. Samsung, one of the world’s three largest memory chip manufacturers, recently said the shortage could persist for several more years.
    • Downloads does not equal actual usage, even less when the app is pre-installed in some Galaxy phones.
    • +1000 to this, don't understand why they added that margin around the top bar, even the close button is a PITA to click without aiming. Ofc, this is just preview and hopefully they will revert such odd UX decision before hitting final version.
    • so the people who bought this will get a refund?
