1. Changed: Renamed 'Hairstyle'.

I installed this version just to learn what the new name was....  and I was so excited to see that it was Theater Mode that I went and bought the upgrade right away.

Now I see that the name is changing every few seconds.

Can I please have my $10 refunded?

P.S.   ;D

LMAO  That is very funny!!!  I thought you guys had really lost it when the first name that came up for HS was I Like Cheese!!

I never had a problem with Hairstyle anyway but then I was in on the joke from the beginning...

Like the addition of default button...I was gonna ask about this when I was designing skins...

The default button lets us add color to a single button to indicate that it's the default.  We needed this for CD burning, for example, to emphasize the "Start" button.

Normally in a Windows dialog the default button is highlighted differently to a normal button.  In the basic luna it is highlighted orange...just shows which button will worl when you press enter in the dialog...

PS Thought our posts had been delete then and couldn't work out why...

At least this way, everyone is sure to be pleased - for a short period of time, anyway.

Wasn't it Andy Warhol who said everyone should have ten minutes of fame?

Ha ha, very funny. You're listening to customers!

Please tell me you'll change it back in the next build, this seems to mess up the fix in resources.xml, and I've already explained the usability problem this causes.

I think the best one is "This mode has large buttons which allows it to be viewed on a tv" or something like that...Very snappy... ;D

Hi :)

Thanks for the new Names in the Hairstyle section. But there's one thing : Could I please have some fries with my BigMC and some more ketchup ?

Going for a snack right now, thanks.

If Andy Warhol were alive he would create a run time option labeled 'Rename Hairstyle to'.  Then every user could make up his own and change it at will.  In fact why not do this for everything? ;-)

From the PBS web site:

His oft-repeated statement that "every person will be world-famous for fifteen minutes" was an incredible insight into the growing commodification of everyday life.

"I'd prefer to remain a mystery. I never like to give my background and, anyway, I make it all up different every time I'm asked."

He embraced a mode of production similar to that taken on by the industries he was mimicking, and referred to his studio as "The Factory."

One of his most famous films, SLEEP (1963), was eight hours of the poet John Giorno asleep in his bed.

On February 22, 1987, Warhol died of heart failure at his home in New York. Many suggested it was a poorly performed minor surgery he had had earlier that day, while others believed it was due to the general weakening of his body after the shooting. What remains certain is that during the sixty years of whirlwind and mystery that was Andy Warhol's life, the art world (and the world at large) became a more fun and interesting place.
