good work... though i do have a few critiques...

- i dont really like the taskbar being thin... perhaps you could have a thic taskbar version?

- those yeallow rollovers for the tabs

- start button

- thin titlebars

and there seems to be a smalll bug in the start menu:

ive got my icons at 64*64, and the my computer, control panel etc icons in the start menu appear squashed horizontally, see ss...

does it work fine with other themes?

Here, just to sum it out

------------------

1

-----------------

- Flat Start button (With Start Caption(and my suggestion is to find a font that is similar as Xeon's "Start" Caption in his Luna II Mod 1.2), and the new window flag)

- Thick taskbar

- Thick Caption bar (title bar?)

- Compact Start Menu

------------------

2

-----------------

Flat start button (Regular old start button)

Thick Caption bar(title bar?)

Thick Taskbar

--------------------

3

Well, I thik the majority wants a BLUE COLOURED tab highlights :D :D

Ok, after testing, here's my rant(s):

1. I thought the whole point of this "reborn" stuff was to finally fix errors/annoyances from mgartner's original and yet we STILL have this crap. The spacing is still WAY too far apart and the arrows are OUTSIDE the borders. For f*ck's sake, can someone fix this for unique?

2. I can't stand that chopped up start panel and the too thin taskbar. The icons in the taskbar are taller than the taskbar itself. Can we get a normal start panel, maybe even with the user pic? If not, could we get a version that looks like this? This pic here has every right about it. If it would only be put into the working version...

3. I don't like either start button that's come out. Can we simply replace mgartner's original flag with this one? Why can't we at least test this out, if nothing more?

The reason is for this is because your icons are too big. I think you have to change the size of the start menu to fit your icons.

Everything he said, BUT.... no2.

I'm partly agree with his idea, but no need for user picture... or you could make it two versions... with user picture, and without ;)

Also, compact and non-compact (the right pane)

as for the start button just relax....I want to find something everyone is kosher with.

And the bugs, no one told me all the bugs involved...i personally can live with the arrows where they are, but I will indeed fix it....the reason of these beta releases is so that the final can be as good as humanly possible. So don't worry, in time all will be fixed.

Unique....this theme was worth the wait. cheers mate for releasing it and getting it done. it is a awesome kick asse theme. i will use this for a while. i do like the yellowish version posted by antoxicion. keep up the good work. it would rock if someone could make a trillian skin and winamp 2.x skin as well. then this would be complete. do you have a background that matches this skin nicely. i am looking for one.

hey antoxicion, could you post that wallpaper link on here that you have for that color variation?

Unique...keep up the good work and excellent job.

    • I'm surprised they haven't found a way to fix that. As much as I don't like software wasting memory, a file manager is the kind of thing that makes sense to keep running in active memory for super-fast recall. I suspect that is why MS makes their File Explorer part of the main explorer.exe shell, so that it is guaranteed to always be running.
    • Seriously 1.8gig....so what. Any computer, if you are going to do serious work on, in 2026 should have a mimimum of 16gig and I would say 32-64gig is the way to go.
    • So again, you'd consider "I'm happy with my LG TV" to be a valid response to an article about PlayStation? I get the "I don't like any of their products" but how does that in any way invoke Linux? It just feels very random.
