^Thanks :)

I've stated that I didn't want to port Novus to Windows 7 for said reasons in the first post. But, to figure out how VSB for Windows 7 works I could of course try it out with a Novus port :)

Don't take this as a promise just yet as I first want to figure out some possibilities. If it's going to be done, expect anti-aliased corners and such.

I will make a a port of Emendo for Windows 7, but I haven't started any mockups yet. What kind of things would you guys want to see in a Windows 7 port?

I'm not going to give it a glass-type border of course. I will give it a nice hover animation on the Ok/Cancel buttons like Aero has etc.

If you can keep the fonts the same as XP, and perhaps get replace the baby-blue color, that would be great!

Well, since those things are already skinned in the XP version, I wouldn't know why I should keep them in the Aero style for the Windows 7 port. So yes, those items will get skinned with Novus images.

I guarantee you sir, if I still had XP, I would install this theme faster than you can say "Novus". This theme is glossy and overall very appealing. I'll look around Deviantart every now and then to see if someone does end up porting this to Windows 7, because I would love to try it out. Great job on this man! Good luck in all of your future work! :)

    • I am actually looking forward to this..... I think Dark Ages was way more fun than the tedious expansions for Doom 2 (nu-doom).
    • Pretty sure you will be happy with the result, good luck and take it slow!
    • Mixed thoughts. I do think MS realized it need's to re-focus on it's core while trying to get people to ultimate pay for AI. My windows machines is my gaming tower. That being said a windows machine I used as a server was just recently converted to no GUI Linux server (and it runs so much better for it's purpse), and general purpose laptop (non-gaming) that could run Windows 11 is using Linux. My work device is a MacBook Pro, and I have a raspberry PI acting as my DNS server, using linux. I honestly have more non-windows devices then devices. I don't consider myself typical user however.  
    • Here is how to watch Apple's WWDC 2026 conference where iOS 27 is expected by Taras Buria It is Monday, June 8, 2026, which means today is the day Apple kicks off its annual Worldwide Developer Conference, WWDC 2026. As usual, today's keynote will be full of consumer and developer-focused announcements, including new versions of Apple's operating systems, developer tools, and more. Apple streams its developer conferences, allowing everyone to tune in and watch the announcements live. Today is no exception, so here is how you can watch it. Apple WWDC 2026 will be available to watch on Apple's official website here. Also, you can stream it on YouTube and the Apple TV app on your Apple device. The stream kicks off at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT / 6 PM GMT+1. Apple's annual developer conference usually focuses on new software experiences, so do not expect major hardware announcements. What is expected is the "27" series of Apple's operating systems, including iOS, iPadOS, watchOS, tvOS, visionOS, and macOS. Apple is unlikely to introduce major UI changes, but you can expect subtle tweaks to the Liquid Glass design language, particularly on Mac. One of the biggest changes Apple plans to announce today is a reworked, AI-powered Siri. The assistant will be available as a standalone app with a chatbot-like experience and Google's AI models under the hood. If you want to learn more about what is expected today at WWDC 2026, check out our dedicated article here. However, if you prefer a spoiler-free stream, tune in at 10 AM PDT / 1 PM EDT on Apple's official website, its YouTube channel, or the Apple TV app.
    • For we consumer readers, it would be helpful if you clearly stated in the headline if the article is about consumer or enterprise. Then readers will know if the article applies to them or not. 2 cents.
