imacken Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 all I'm disapointed about is the over usage of glass. I find that distracting when I have my windows maximized. I like how vista did it, and I hope that they will bring back that option. (thats something I see happening) Couldn't agree more. I love glass, but bring back the dark bars when windows are maximised. It's way too distracting at the moment in apps like Photoshop, Lightroom, etc. to see the glass in an otherwise exclusive (to the app) environment.

+John. Subscriber¹ Posted April 15, 2009 Subscriber¹ Share Posted April 15, 2009 New UI? No but new theme? Maybe Agreed entirely. It's nothing to get excited about, it won't be a complete overhaul if it does happen.

l Ancient l Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 New UI? No but new theme? Maybe Ye, agreed... It would be illogical to introduce a brand new UI considering they spent so many hours tweaking and fixing the existing one... Plus, in order to make new UI work they would need to test it, make it public so ppl would find bugs and report... so far we havent seen anything like that... A new theme is far more possible than a new UI... I just hope they make it nice since.. well.. too much Vista, I would like to see something new...

KeeperOfThePizza Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 The whole glass look is gross in my opinion, though it wouldnt keep me from using Windows 7 by any means. It's nothing NEW. Glass has been done. Microsoft needs to come up with something that completely changes the look while not having any relation to vista. apple may be, but google? Are you kiddding me? Google has some of the worst designs EVER. (look at the android OS. Ugly) How about lets change that to Apple and Linux. Apple has always looked better and so has Linux.

Glass has been done. Microsoft needs to come up with something that completely changes the look while not having any relation to vista. New =/= better How about lets change that to Apple and Linux. Apple has always looked better and so has Linux. Very specific forms of Linux, anyway. But I don't think this would be a good line of discussion to go down.

The whole glass look is gross in my opinion, though it wouldnt keep me from using Windows 7 by any means. It's nothing NEW. Glass has been done. Microsoft needs to come up with something that completely changes the look while not having any relation to vista. Well theres to much glass. When you have a window maximized you have all that glass. Microsoft needs to provide an option. In the mean time, you could turn off transparency and tweak your colors. (right now I turned off transparency and created a nice ruby red like color scheme for my windows) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/759486-there-are-rumors-too-that-a-new-ui-is-coming/page/9/#findComment-590858158 Share on other sites More sharing options...

neufuse Veteran Posted April 15, 2009 Veteran Share Posted April 15, 2009 I dont mind if they add or change the UI, but at least keep the old Aero one there so you can switch back to it if you want to... we keep classic for heavens sake... so why can't we keep Vista Aero, then say add a new theme and make it the default, but let is switch back if we wish Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/759486-there-are-rumors-too-that-a-new-ui-is-coming/page/9/#findComment-590858410 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luis Mazza Posted April 15, 2009 Share Posted April 15, 2009 They could add new animations to Aero with a new theme and buttons. That doesn't require a lot of beta testing and it's perfectly possible.
