Only thing I dislike here are the min max close buttons in their hovered and clicked states. They look smaller than the actual "hitboxes" for them... I don't really know how to describe it, but i feel like if they were bigger or less like a tiny square in a big open region then I'd like them more. Maybe you could try a few things with them? Otherwise, best style I've seen for Win7, thank you.

Hey,

Sorry I haven't done anything with the theme in so long. Lost interest in theming since I had to switch priorities to school and client work. Besides that, VSB is broken for me (save/open dialog doesn't work; very strange and seemingly untraceable bug that occurs for some and not others... look it up at the VSB forum if you think I'm bsing here :laugh: ). Also, VSB has trouble converting transparent gradients on the fly, resulting in me having to save through multiple programs to ensure that VSB can convert the alpha transparency properly.

It's just taking up too much time and I have lost interest in the theme. My interest would return if VSB got fixed, so bug Ave about it. Just kidding :p

Anyway, I haven't themed for the longest time. And I know Ji@nBing has been wanting that larger start orb since the beginning. Start orbs are in Explorer.exe in Windows 7, aren't they? I'll search for the file tonight. I think I've sent the startorb PSD (the small arrow one) to member Decaytion last year. Here's hoping he has it if I can't find it... I think he uses Mac OSX now, though. With a quick check it's not in my PSD/Theming folder strangely. I probably misplaced it when I organized my files earlier this year.

Anyway... sorry for not keeping up with this.

    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame

      By WaltC · Posted

      The problem of course is simply that government does not always know best. My point is that agency is taken away from the EU consumer in these cases. I'm sorry, but I do not believe that governments (politicians) are inherently good, and "looking out for me." Primarily they look to themselves and their own personal desires first, foremost, and always. When the EU or the DOJ fines these companies, claiming to "represent the welfare of the consumer," how much of these billion-dollar judgments are handed to the consumers they claim to represent? Not even a dollar, as I've seen. Yet the EUC lawyers who are paid to sit around and dream up these suits make huge commissions on the fines the EUC adjudicates, which is an ironclad fact I hope everyone is aware of. It's also rank corruption, of course, but that's another topic. Last, when the EU inflicts these judgments, or the DOJ, take your pick, the costs are bundled right along in the cost of the goods and services these companies provide the consumers they are "looking out for." If you are someone who believes his government is his savior then you have my condolences. I think Apple is right here, because the whole scheme of consumer choice is that consumers pick and choose among the products companies offer. Microsoft Windows is more compatible with third party software and hardware than any desktop OS on Earth, which is my sole reason for choosing it. Just because the EUC forces companies do certain things it knows the companies do not want to do, "or else", has no bearing on consumer benefit. This Siri thing is almost idiotic it's so infantile. But this is what the EUC does when the EU in Brussels becomes cash-strapped and needs a big infusion of cash. Some people get upset by "big companies" but it's the opposite when governments dwarf the size and scope of these companies, which is so obvious it hurts.... I mean you can't honestly believe that forcing Apple to do things with Siri it has its own reasons to decline is something that "opens up" Apple, do you? Say it aint' so...

      Looks like many years since the request was made, a directory tree view finally may be added. https://github.com/files-community/Files/pull/18537

      Is it still super slow or has it improved on that area?

      There's this from last year https://gist.github.com/threat...364659a8887841aa43deca4efd9 but nothing about a buffer overflow that MS somehow can't code against. No matter what, it makes sense to take a "protected by default" approach.
