Would it be easy to translate it in another language? :blush:

In a word, yes. You can either do it yourself by editing the string resources in the executable (they are still in the same locations as the standard logonui). Alternatively send me a copy of the standard logonui.exe in your language and I'll set up a resource file to convert my logonui to your language.

can't believe you no one reported it.

Try to use Large Fonts or Extra Large Fonts.... it will look like crap. Gonna fix it asap.

Most likely because almost no one uses Large and Extra Large Fonts.

Yeah probably. Well I never used it before, but I switched from 1280x1024 to 1600x1200 a couple of days ago and the small letters started to annoy me.

So I tried Large Fonts and it sucked, the whole captionbar was screwed up. Anyways, I got it fixed now so I will release a new version this week.

why emulate, use the real thing

Ok please don't make such useless comments. Not everybody wishes to use Linux. I like Windows a lot and I will use it because of that. Though BlueCurve looks sooo sweet, so that's why I ported it. I'm not the only one who likes the look of Red Hat but don't want to use it.

I dont like compact start menu like that. Sorry

ThemeNorth did you translate your login with the logonui I provided to you?

I still keep the old ones.... so there is always a choice.

Ah cool... not a big fan of the compact start menus either to be honest, so having the choice is fine with me :)

Sheesh Schmoove.. it must be difficult to keep everyone happy! :)

OK, added a French string table to the Logon UI. I can't actually test this (not having a french copy of windows installed).

Same link as before (Download - GetSkinned)

Let me know if it works...

How's this??

Looks better than the old start menu, more Linux like. I think it would look even better with the red bar on the right side removed, it just doesn't look right with it. Check the attached file, I made a mockup of what I mean. I was going to make a new start menu, but Stylebuilder gives me a headache. :D

    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Jaybonaut · Posted

      Looks like the 7.1 is fake effects, can it at least do real 5.1? It says 'virtual 7.1' in all descriptions.

      You can't, if you didn't notice, it doesn't support surround at all, it's right in the spec list.
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      Hi — I’m always interested in soundcards. Like displays, I just want to know I’m getting as much clean “sonic juice” into my brain as possible as the years take their toll. I’m not entirely sure what to take away from this review, though. It doesn’t really tell me whether the AE‑X is a good product or who it’s actually for. Most of what I’m getting is: there’s a driver to install, here’s what it looks like, and here’s what’s in the box. There’s a lot of emphasis on the SPDIF input. When you mention not needing to switch headphones between console and PC — does that mean the PC has to be powered on just to pass audio through? That seems like a fairly big waste of energy. Is this more something a streamer would use alongside a capture card? How are you testing the sound? (Also, you might want to clarify that you’re using the headphones in wired mode when you mention they’re wireless.) You mention the lack of EMI shielding — how much real‑world difference does that make compared with typical motherboard audio? On multi‑channel: what exactly isn’t supported? Does this mean Windows spatial audio (Dolby Atmos for Headphones, DTS Headphone:X, etc.) won’t work, or just that the card itself doesn’t decode surround formats? And are there any true multi‑driver “surround” headphones left that would even use that? You also highlight support for high‑impedance headphones — but what does that translate to in practice? How does it compare to driving the same headphones from a normal device, and does it make any difference for everyday, lower‑impedance models? In short, who is this card actually targeted at?
