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?

      I always thought the moon gets a lot of impact because there’s no atmosphere, so surely building a moon base is only going to end in disaster?

    • Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams, here is a first look

      Microsoft is bringing a much-needed Recap app to Teams, here is a first look by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is heavily used in work and school environments, and perhaps one of its core but extremely useful features is the ability to record meetings. In past years, Microsoft has further improved upon this functionality by integrating AI, but you do need a Microsoft 365 Copilot license to leverage most, if not all, all of those capabilities. Now, the Redmond tech firm is making another significant enhancement in the area of Teams meeting recordings. Up until now, if you wanted to access Teams recordings, you had to arduously locate the meeting invite and navigate to the dedicated tab, or go to the cloud storage location such as a SharePoint site. This was a rather overwhelming activity, especially if you don't remember the name of the meeting or the meeting occurred quite a while ago. Microsoft is now attempting to solve this problem through a dedicated Recap app that consolidates all your recordings. This centralized experience will allow users to find all recordings from the past 30 days and also offer access to other related services such as transcripts and AI-powered summaries. Customers will have the option to search for recordings, filter them, and review multiple meetings by generating AI-powered podcast-style recaps. The Recap app will list all available recordings in both thumbnail and list views. The former is shown below: And here is how Teams users with a Microsoft 365 Copilot license can select multiple recordings to generate a podcast-style audio recap: Microsoft has emphasized that the Recap app is pre-installed in Teams but it will not be pinned by default. Users will able to navigate to the Teams app store from the left rail, and pin it from the apps section. It will be enabled by default for all users once it becomes available. It's worth noting that while Teams recordings and transcripts can be accessed by all users governed by existing permissions, AI-powered features like intelligent summaries, audio recaps, and video recaps will require a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. The Recap app will be generally available to Teams users on Windows, Mac, and the web by the end of next month, with mobile support coming soon.
