Updated again.

don't try to derail the thread to your Vista/whatever theme stuff

Umm...I'm not trying to derail the thread, this is entirely Windows 10-related .-.
(Also my Visual Styles are for Windows 8.1.1, and I hope to port them to 10 at some point)

depends on people's tastes, you can't proclaim that as an absolute truth

That's why I was asking. The very thought of declaring an opinion as fact hurts to think about D:

10 is much cooler for something that will stay 'Windows 10' forever

They shouldn't have to turn to a cool name to make the OS work.

Also...didn't Microsoft release an update to disable the option to disable automatic updates a while ago? How much longer until they remove the option to disable the Windows Update service? How much longer until the upgrade can't be cancelled anymore?

And will they ever realize that Windows 10 is actually a downgrade, and that they forgot the "for" in front of "get Windows 10"?

also Splitwirez could you please avoid putting huge banners in your signature? that 'classic theme for Win10' thing kind of looks like those 'you are the billionth visitor' ad banners.

Woops...

...would a smaller banner be better, then? Or if not, how can I create branding which won't bother you?


EDIT: Just to clarify, it is legit. Look here:

(That's the real classic theme, not just a Visual Style. The taskbar still looks Modern because it doesn't use Visual Styles anymore)

I didn't say it wasn't legit, just that your banner reminds me of those ad banners


a simple text link would be better, it would be less obnoxious and at the same time more trustworthy (the ad banners I mentioned are known for trying to give you viruses or other things that are less than nice)

Oh...

Yeah, I get that. I didn't think anyone would draw that connection, though...um...it'd be nice to retain the style, but...alright...actually, would just a small Windows Classic-styled button with the text on it be acceptable? (Key word "small") If not, I'll just do a text link like you said ._.

EDIT: Wait, is the Neo Mario Galaxy banner an issue too? (It is taller...)

Another suggestion: Try browsing around a bit in incognito mode. See if that stops the problem. Then, slowly flag extensions to be enabled in incognito one by one (browsing for a while after each) until the problem starts happening in incognito. Then uninstall the last extension you enabled before the problem started to affect incognito.

If anyone here knows of a potential problem with this strategy, please say so.

i thought it would be funny if bees would bee-omorphize humans like we antropromorphize animals.

So...would that be BeeviantArt or something?

yeah, i got everything covered in this hack, disgusting vore porn, shark sex, bee sex and furry stuff.

That...is weird. Then again, so is hacking games in general if you think about it (different flavor of weird but whatever) XD

Chrome isn't even that good.

But at this rate nobody's ever going to make something better .___.

EDIT:
Also,

So apparently white text on a translucent yellow rectangle is "high contrast"?? WAT!?

all the themes that aren't the default are completely unmaintained, it's a miracle they even work at all

Okay it's one thing for the OS to be butt-ugly, but to have the accessibility-enhancing themes be flat-out broken and left to fall apart further...WAT? T________T

Also there is hope...WindowBlinds can skin the whole OS to your exact demands, and Classic Shell can provide a usable Start Menu...and it recently acquired the power to skin the taskbar background, so there's that too.

Posted by StapleButter
but obviously Microsoft doesn't give a shit and just hardcodes colors when they make new UIs

Yup

At this point, it's almost as though Microsoft be like "Havin trubl reedin da Windoz? Herr, lettuce put ur wite text on blurles transloosnt yellow backgrownd so u kan r33d it moar eezly O: "

Then everyone else be like
"[thumbnail]"

And it wouldn't be as bad if they didn't rearrange the theming engine with practically every second Windows Update (which you're forced to install eventually), as that would be a big problem for anyone aiming to restore some degree of actual functionality.


Also they somehow managed to screw up file dragging .____.
Does anyone here have a list of benefits of Windows 10? Here, I'll start:
-DirectX 12
-Amazing window drop shadows
-Beautiful Window and start menu animations
-Shell is easy to use...assuming you're on a Microsoft Surface of some sort
umm...

...yeah, that's all I've got. Anyone know of other benefits? P:

Posted on 05-24-16 08:25 PM, in Windows 10 Link | #70948
Hm...

...well all the caption buttons are the same size now, which might have theming potential if you ignore the fact that the taskbar can no longer be skinned natively...actually, TrueTransparency and BorderSkin can do that without needing a whole new OS, so nevermind.

Also, the Start Menus been acting strange, sometime it stops working at all, it's really annoying...

Classic Shell's Start Menu is far more reliable. It's a highly customizable replacement, which can do a pretty good impression of a Windows 2000, XP, or 7 menu style. It's also skinnable, and doesn't modify any system files, and is completely safe to use.

Not sure if anyone remembers this:

...where's the StableButton in the bottom-left corner?


But in any case, I decided to make that button.
(Note: Requires Classic Shell)

...wasn't sure if there was any interest or not, but I figured I'd put it out there just in case.

you're just looking for an excuse to make a windows skin, aren't you

Ehm...well I guess that's one of my reasons...the others including wanting to honor my implied promise and curiousity as to how Arisotura himself would react/respond...

Neat.

I accidentally some really old WindowBlinds skins, which I've been updating ever since.

Honestly, do you guys even USE the icons you put on your desktop? Desktop might be an easily-accessed place, but can't you cram your crap in an easily-opened location in file explorer? Heck, you can even shortcut some stuff to have it appear underneath "libraries".

I do...albeit only via the Run dialogue. (Safer than real startup items ._. )

Posted by LeftyGreenMario
And holy crap, rob, that's a lot of windows you have opened.

>rob
Was that directed at me? And if so, why are you using the abbreviated form of my other username? ._.

Yeah, it was, because I know you from your other username more. :P

...you know me as rob55rod more than as Splitwirez? Where from? Have we met in two places without my even knowing? O.o

Posted by LeftyGreenMario
Me, I hardly even use the Run dialogue, but again, I doubt all that stuff on desktop would be used, even a lot. Heck, I barely use the stuff on MY desktop, except for those SmashDump folders, which is only temporary.

Yeah, fair enough. Then again, unlike me, most people don't use Device Manager and other stuff in system32 very often.

Yeah, I know from the davoonline forums. That's where I first saw you. I'm MarioBabyLuigi over there. Yeah, I should've said something about that earlier, but better late than never.

Well, what are the odds of that? I would never have guessed that XDDD

Posted by LeftyGreenMario
Yeah, I suppose you use it often because you change the skin of Windows and stuff, huh?

Actually no, my Network Adapter just likes randomly crapping out, so I have to disable and re-enable it every now and then to get it working again ._____.
