Halloween theme.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween

Halloween (also spelled Hallowe'en) is an annual holiday celebrated on October 31. It has roots in the Celtic festival of Samhain and the Christian holy day of All Saints. It is largely a secular celebration but some have expressed strong feelings about perceived religious overtones.

The colours black and orange have become associated with the celebrations, perhaps because of the darkness of night and the colour of fire or of pumpkins, and maybe because of the vivid contrast this presents for merchandising. Another association is with the jack-o'-lantern. Halloween activities include trick-or-treating, wearing costumes and attending costume parties, ghost tours, bonfires, visiting haunted attractions, pranks, telling scary stories, and watching horror films.

Neowin was created by the British (Neobond is UK i think), think alot of mods are british also

I can't find the option to state I'm not a Yank. I guess I forgot the US is the only place on Earth to some.

Is it possible if we could shift board colours without the help of Stylish? It would feel cooler like that and the color would be saved into the cookies so as soon as the cookies get cleared, the theme goes to normal. Just my $0.02 but I like the Halloween design whats wrong with it?

Really? Nobody else in the world celebrates the day where you have an excuse to dress stupid and get ****-faced?

We're sure as hell doing that :)

Technically Australia doesn't celebrate Halloween, but there are a lot of Halloween parties on at this time. We personally love it.

My folks someday wanna move to Sydney, what should we be aware of? Snakes, koalas, kangaroos beating people or what?

On topic, everyone is heading to Beverly Hills because of the generous donators giving $5/10/20s to trick-or-treaters.

lmao.... we also ride kangaroos as a substitute to cars, we LOVE our iSnack 2.0 and we always greet you saying "Gday mate what a bloody good day it is!"

On a serious note, I like this theme. Maybe they can keep it under Halloween Theme?

Also, what happened with Andrew?

      Just remember - Microsoft is a trillion dollar company. They didn't have to raise the price this high. They chose to.
    • PowerToys is getting a new window management utility

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      PowerToys is getting a new window management utility by Taras Buria If you use PowerToys on Windows 11 or 10, you probably know that the app has quite a few utilities for window management. Fancy Zones, Always on Top, Crop and Lock, just to name a few. Soon, Microsoft will add another one, and fans of Alt + Tab should be excited. Proposed by Clint Rutkas, the module has a very simple idea: use a keyboard shortcut to toggle between windows within one app. For example, if you have four browser windows open, Alt + ` will let you switch between them just like Alt + Tab switches between all running apps. Here is the utility description from its GitHub pull request: Like other PowerToys utilities, Alt Window Cycle will offer shortcut customization. You will be able to use default shortcuts (Alt + ` for the next window or Alt + Shift + ` for the previous one) or remap them to something else. For now, there is no information on when Alt Window Cycle will arrive, so we will have to wait for the next PowerToys feature update (Microsoft usually pushes them on a monthly basis). Recently, Microsoft released version 0.100, which reworked the shortcuts guide, introduced an extension gallery for Command Palette, and more. Shortly after, version 0.100.1 arrived as a bug-fixing update. PowerToys is available on Windows 10 and 11, and you can get the app from the official GitHub repository, the Microsoft Store, or winget. Although Windows 10 is no longer supported, PowerToys developers currently do not plan to drop the now-unsupported operating system. And with Microsoft giving Windows 10 one more year in the Extended Security Update, you can expect PowerToys to remain available on Windows 10 for quite a while.
