tcmean Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 i have no problems at all...all the new features work fine the shutdown dialog is properly shown. it is not shown after i change to horizontal shell. i think we got to remove previous version of vista xp skin from window blinds. at least in that way, it works fine for me.

Xerxes Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Tis a sad day :cry: ...but why now? seems kinda odd MS let the skin go for so long then stop it all of the sudden, I would of thought they'd be happy it was so well liked? :wacko: oh well guess they just don't see it that way and only see the "dark" side of it...

ambiance Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Well that makes sense since this is for non-profit. You shouldn't be allowed to use styles unless you buy them directly from Microsoft at a ridiculous cost with DRM laden throughout it. They should add this to their multi-million dollar television campaign of how many things you can do with windows... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hani Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 sad news :'( anyone knows how could i change the start button for glass beta 2 and use the old one (that is with Kol's extras "StartButtonNormal_WhiteFlag") Either tell me how or do it for me please, Thanks for the help!!

meamog Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Sorry to hear about the shutdown, the skin was and is a masterpiece. Still, I'll bet you've got some good ideas for an all-new type of theme... and I'm sure we'll be right here for whenever you get to it. A big thank you for all the hard work you put into the skin! :heart: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nocstar Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Totally agree with the above post, Your work is damn well appriciated man Thanks for the hardwork on this skin very well done.

fires Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 If he is willing to do so it doesnt mean he cant help us make the skin for personal use does it? For example he can continue to make it and then show/tell us how to do it? Just a thought :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zionyx Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Dammit, I missed getting 3.1 by about 5 hours. >< If anyone wants to... point... me in the direction of it... that would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dru Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 I'm in the same boat :( Shame really. It was one of the best skins available for wb5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
outokainen Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 But does anybody know how I can enable the compact start-menu? There is a file called vistaxpgxpstuffC.xp just like in v3.0 but I can see only Black Beta1, Silver Beta1, Glass Beta1, Black Beta2, Silver Beta2 and Glass Beta2 in the wb5's dropdown menu.

DarkWader Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Omg.. this is sad news.. I cant believe that MS really did this! :angry: Was this a request Kol, or was it a threat? I cant see that making skins is non-legal.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RightfulSpire Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 yea i dont see how they can do this.all these other people can submit thousands of window skins but KoL makes one that is astounding and all the sudden MS wants to put thier foot down, whjat right do they have to do that. there is nothing illegal about it, heck even stardock gives you the apps to build your own skin..i owuldnt listen they have no right.

AbandonedTrolley Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 :( Not good, just glad I got the 3.1 in time then :( as you've already heard time and time again its an amazing piece of work KoL and will still be on many peoples desktops for quite a long time :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NemesisNG Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 It is very bad news indeed. I did manage to grab 3.1 last night thankfully, and I have to say it's amazing. I can only assume that MS have requested it's removal as it was getting far too close to vista itself, which is only credit to Kol if thats the case.

ishiok Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Sorry everyone I finally got the e-mail from Microsoft today. I had to remove the skin :( Please do not redistribute this skin anymore. I'm sad and ****ed off. Luckily I was among the lucky batch to grab the 3.1 yesterday. Thank you Master for all the effort since the Longhorn days.

RevoDS Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Could you give us the rights over the skin so that it could continue to improve? I'm sad because you're the best but hey...we have to do with MS's $$$ It would be cool if some anonym people would continue it on another name. At the moment, I make copies of my version 3.1 on my computer... Sad day for us... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NY1 Posted December 13, 2005 Share Posted December 13, 2005 Sorry everyone I finally got the e-mail from Microsoft today. I had to remove the skin :( Please do not redistribute this skin anymore. I think you should remove "Vista" from the name and continue developing the skin. Plus, didn't you make the graphics in the skin on your own?
