Thanks :)

This minimalistic version is coming along v.nicely, caption bars, fonts, taskbar and start menu are much smaller...

Same sort of caption bars as in SD's mod, you have to make them that style otherwise you can't shrink the caption bars v.much. That is how the captions were in the very first version of the skin. Taking me a long while to add this since I don't know which values have been changed, can you give me some rough ideas SD?

DMX 1.4 finished, which adds the new minimalistic versions (GraphiteM and ClassikM).

Screeny:

Note how there are no Log Off, Shut Down buttons on the start panel! There are reasons for this:

1. I wanted to get the smallest start panel to date :)

2. You can get the same shut down dialog box by simply pressing your PC's power button (instructions for this on first post)

3. Who logs off? :p

If you don't like it, don't use it, but personally I think its by far the nicest variant :)

Download link on first page!

saint dark: I'm still adding your mod, will finish then upload 1.5, which will be the final build until I finish the Trillian skin...

Nope, that was started a while ago, the caption bars were actually designed like that in the original (first) cut of the theme, but were changed to make it look more like Windows Classic style...

When I tried to shrink the caption bars with the newer style, it looked poor so I had to revert to the 'full' caption bars...

Your mod has different start panel and buttons!

Hey b0se can you make the 'Start' buttons for the 'Classik' VS look-like the ones from your 'Classic' version? :) ....

I have the start button from 'Watercolour Lite' - tried to colour it so it goes with 'Classik' but it turns out bad :pinch: ....

I've provided the image below, I don't want you to implement it into your VS as members might not like it, but if you could edit to suit 'Classik' - I would be greatful m8 :yes: :happy: ....

Radish.

    • Still 3x what it should cost. So, it seems the trick is to increase price by 6x so that a reduction in price back to 4x looks like a steal. "You savvy shoppers win again!" I'm glad I'm not in a desperate spot to actually even need this overpriced crap. Hopefully, it comes back down by the time for when (or if) I ever do.
    • Although AI is great and has it's use cases they likely have massively overhyped it and it has not delivered as per their expectations. I fully expect them to start saying the same things again when it does get to a certain level of intelligence!
    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
