cryptonx 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 this is the Windows Longhorn SYSTRAY and desktop and start menu and showing off the 3D GUI so many talked about , however i couldn't find it in my copy , maybe it's a hidden or a Console command that activates it .

cryptonx 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 the one GIVN guy showed is not at all longhorn Longhorn transformation pack is SOFTWARE that changes ur Windows XP ( or 98 i think ) to look like Longhorn , it's made by a third party not microsoftthe ones I showed are the OFFICIAL longhorn shots TATTOO ;)at mysticfrog , if it had a penguin or a fox you would've loved it ( just kidding )i didnt even see that HORN bull in any place Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trekkie101 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Yeah the images in the first post are definately fakes, I remember reading they were made in photoshop I didnt know they existed, the longhorn theme looks a lot more professional in my opinion and will do pretty well, the XP theme looks too childish too me.

tattoopunk 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Stupid question, but anyidea why it's called Longhorn? Where I'm from thats a chain of steakhouses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coder2000 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Longhorn is just its codename. They will most likely change it before release. I dont mind the new interface. Yes there are some improvements that can be made my I like the idea of a sidebar. I use a third-party one on my desktop. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MajesticTreeFrog 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 at mysticfrog , if it had a penguin or a fox you would've loved it ( just kidding ) i didnt even see that HORN bull in any place <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Actually I am not much into penguins or foxes. Maybe if it had a frog theme.... Anyway, I just think it isn't any improvement on the current Windows look, and if anything wastes more space and is less usefull. I also think the way they are going about the 3d interface is wrong. Turning windows sideways is great eye candy, but its not helpfull for useability. (that they are using 3d tech to display the windows on the other hand is a good idea, and makes total sense). Basically, from what i have seen: Idea good, implementation bad(and ugly).

Trekkie101 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2005 Yeah 3D looks really bad, its a good idea but silly implementation.Frog theme - LOLI always did like the Windows 98 theme it was very simple to use Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
