[VS] Win7-Blend for Windows 7


Recommended Posts

Love the new beta thus far... I have a few suggestions that I left on your deviantart page for it... also; when you hover over the "Show Desktop" button there is no hover change, is that what you wanted? I think a slight change when you hover over it would make it better though. Maybe a gradient on the Preview square when you hover over an open program would be nice, one that matches the top of your Title Bars. :)

hello guys..

here is a little peek at what ive done today

im done with the top and bottom bars inside window...

the grey area status bars..

and its final. because i am very happy with them.

Well, the sky blue color looks very good to me.

with the 'download progress bar' most designers opt for a blue or a green...they generally choose an 'easy on the eyes' colour to compliment their theme...

maybe it's time to experiment with a bolder colour as 'Decaytion' suggests.

Smart man right here.

well that is just what i think..

i would love to see u edit my screenshot with photoshop and paint over it the way u want the HDD space bars to be..

and the download bars will be the same but green..

so i am all open for suggestions.

I will post it again here with various colours but I'm more than happy to go along with whatever you choose...it is after all your design and a damned good one at that :)

well i know about the bug..

dont worry this beta is just for ppl who wana take a close look at the theme. Not for day to day use :)

and Mike!!..

wow..

that is exactly what im talkin about!!

well

i tried what u did on DRIVE H

but i found it tooo boring.. lifeless

then i tried F but with blue color. it wasnt what i wanted.

but i love ur DRIVE L and DRIVE E

ill go with DRIVE L..

what do u ppl say??

green for everything?? except the red for harddrive full???

ok there is something wrong with the forums...the font size has reduced SO MUCH!!.. :s

and guys.. i think the green i went with is pretty good i dont want it to be very shiny.. or glass-like

anyhow.. :)

in the meanwhile i was bored tonight to work on the theme.. so i did the superbar icons instead. i made 6 icons for myself which i pin to the superbar in SQUARE.. and they are totally done by me. And im working on a square startorb based on the microsoft store logo. :)

i hope i can get past the alpha channel thing that goes over my head.

and i did the icon just like their default ones so its not so different that it feels changed. Just squared ;)

but yes had to do a little new concept on the Internet Explorer icon :)

here is a screen shot :)

    • I agree. I also think Phil stayed too long. They should definitely fire whoever thought all a console platform needed was Call of Duty, Elder Scrolls, and Fallout to survive. Asha and crew are still saying they need more Elder Scrolls and Fallout games. They simply don't get it.
    • Macbook Air is an appealing option, as are plethora of Windows devices with various different CPU's
    • Mozilla highlights Firefox Nova 2026 redesign and more upcoming features with new roadmap by Sayan Sen Last month Mozilla confirmed that Firefox was set to get a major redesign this year. Dubbed "Project Nova", it can already be tested and will roll out to all users later this year.The idea is to keep the browser competitive in a rapidly evolving internet landscape. As such the revamp focuses on improving privacy, usability, performance, accessibility, and customization. Key privacy features including the built-in VPN, private browsing mode, and Enhanced Tracking Protection, will be more visible and easier to manage, while users will have the option to disable AI features entirely through a dedicated kill switch. Additionally, the redesign promises faster page loading, the return of Compact mode, expanded personalization options, and stronger accessibility support. You can find the full details in the dedicated piece linked above. In a new blog post today the company once again reiterated on Nova and also emphasized other new and upcoming features like the settings revamp that is intended to make it easier for users to understand browser settings. In order to make it simpler for users to keep up with such features Mozilla today is launching Firefox roadmap. Hence enthusiasts and interested users will be able to check out what's cooking and also share feedback about the upcoming additions. Alongside the roadmap announcement, Mozilla also highlighted what's new in Firefox 152. One of the biggest additions is the arrival of Tab Groups on Android. The feature, which has already been helping desktop users organize large numbers of tabs, is now beginning to roll out on mobile. Users will be able to group related tabs together, assign names and colors to them, and return to them later. Mozilla says support for iOS will arrive later this year. Firefox 152 also introduces the aforementioned redesigned Settings experience. The company says the changes are meant to make controls easier to find and help users discover features they may not have previously known about. Existing preferences are not changing, though they are now better organized. Another notable addition is the new Blocked Tracker Widget, which provides a visual overview of Firefox's privacy protections by showing how many trackers have been blocked over time and the types of tracking activity the browser has stopped. Looking ahead, Mozilla revealed several upcoming roadmap features. They include customizable keyboard shortcuts, as well as enhanced PDF editing tools that will allow documents to be split, merged, and reorganized directly within Firefox. The company is also working on bringing Multi-Account Containers into the native Firefox experience thus removing the need for a separate extension. Meanwhile Firefox's built-in VPN is set to expand to mobile devices. Mozilla is also developing AI-powered features like Quick Answers, which can provide concise responses to voice queries, and Smart Window, its optional AI browsing experience that is now available without a waitlist. Finally, a new Power Saving Mode is in the works and will help reduce the impact of resource-heavy tabs on mobile devices in order to extend battery life. The video below summarizes the upcoming changes in an easy to understand format: You can find the announcement blog post here on Mozilla's official website.
    • Dead on arrival at that price. Like they missed the mark by multiple hundreds of dollars - this should actually undercut the Macbook Air at $899 if they want any sort of sales / further adoption of WoA
