Fantastic theme and I know some have gripes with the font, but at 1600x1200 on my laptop it looks absolutely awesome. I'm all for Verdana 7 and this has to be up their with my fave themes... you're making it difficult for me to know which theme to use. ;)

Keep up the great work.

this theme is awesome, i started using it last night and i love everything about it (i am a fan of small taskbars and startmenus too :)) anyways, this is definately one of my favorite themes for xp right now... great/awesome work :D

Nice update, but still, the start button looks totally out of place...

The rest of the theme consists of nice gradients and colours etc, whereas the start button is flat and basic (reminds me of Windows 3.11).

Don't mean to offend, but please sort this out, the taskbar is the part of a theme you see ALL of the time, and that button really looks odd :ninja:

I think we all agree that the startbutton needs work. It's obvious though that this startbutton: startbutton.jpg is not the same one that's in this start panel: post-34-1059156075.jpg

Maybe if/when the taskbar is enlarged, this "user pic" startbutton will be able to fit? If not, I say we just leave it like mgartner had it...

Spam post of the year.

your post seems like one too.

anyway, great to see that this theme as been released. been waiting for quite some time now. great job unique looks good and as one of the guys pointed out above, the usericon would look best as the start menu button IMO. but its your theme, do what u like best.

Like has been mentioned, the start button is getting worse. I think the longhorn white flag would go best (judging on the fact that the white + blue colour combination already in there pwns).

    • Google's NotebookLM gets some useful features you may have been waiting for by Aditya Tiwari It's been three years since Google introduced its AI-powered note-taking and research app, NotebookLM. Just when Apple is about to kick off WWDC 2026, the search giant has announced a platter of new NotebookLM features that add agentic capabilities in chat and more advanced reasoning. For starters, NotebookLM now draws its fuel from Gemini 3.5 and Antigravity to improve accuracy and reliability. One of the things people have been asking for a long time is more transparency into the thinking steps. NotebookLM now shows expanded thinking steps in chat, providing better visibility into the thinking process. Google compared the upgraded NotebookLM with prior versions and found that it "achieved an average win rate of over 65% — a 15% point margin above parity — across our top five core evaluation dimensions," including accuracy & quality, multilingual support, large document analysis, document creation, and advanced research. It showed substantial improvements in analyzing large documents, achieving a 69.9% win rate. The system also delivered "exceptional performance" in advanced web research and source discovery with a 78.2% win rate. The AI research tool now generates outputs in more formats. You can give instructions to guide the outputs and download the generated files from the studio panel. Here are the newly supported formats: PNG and SVG for data visualizations and charts PDFs, docx, markdown, and text files for documents PNG, JPG, and GIF for images JSON and CSV for structured data XLSX for Microsoft Excel PPTX for Microsoft PowerPoint You can make edits after the outputs are generated. The feature is available globally; therefore, you can provide directions in one language and create outputs in another. Google said that it's also making it easier to get started with a project in NotebookLM. Instead of having a list of sources beforehand, you can even start with loose ideas, and NotebookLM can help build the repository of sources through the chat. For instance, you can find primary sources in other languages to get new perspectives or explore related works of an author. All of these new features are rolling out globally for those who can loosen up their pockets. They are available to users with Google AI Ultra and all Workspace business customers with AI Ultra access. Google has plans to expand them to more users in the future.
    • "...will no longer be bundled with the monthly Windows security updates or Patch Tuesdays. Instead the company is shifting delivery of these updates to Microsoft Update...". Three names that all refer to Windows Update. Does the author even understand what he is writing about?
    • and somehow windows is the only one with issue every patch tuesday is a mess, android macosx have all that and it never had issues locking people out of their own data.
    • It's the ol': I told my kids I was older than Google and they thought I was joking. For me I was born the same year as the internet
