    View Poll Results: Which Has Most Visual Appeal ?


    I'm desperately trying to like W10 but am finding the blandness and stark visual interface very off putting. Something as simple as the Windows calculator highlights this. Here is the W10 offering vs the W8.1 This stark bland appearance carries through to much of the OS. Project Spartan (Edge) seems like it could develop into something worthwhile but again, its so unattractive to use.

    What do you think ?

    There is a poll attached to this thread. Which of these is most visually appealing to you ?

    :)

  2. N95 8G>>Is it possible???

    i said that the multimedia screen is more visually appealing on the 95-1 but much more functional on the 95 8gb and i was criticised for my comment as being biased

    But again i will reinterate

    The n95-1 multimedia screen is much more visually appealing but the 8gb has much more functionality in its multimedia screen

  3. Making Windows 10 Taskbar more Dock-like.

    I think this would make the taskbar fell less obstructive, not to mention the visual appeal

    For me I like simple clean things and Win10 just works for me. Not that I don't like Win8.1 but I just dig Win10 after using it for some time now.

    I like Windows 8.1, but Windows 10 clean and flat visual looks better in my humble opinion...

  6. looking at the two pics I prefer the 8.1 look

    I find the white look hard to read and a strain on the eyes, everything just seems to merge into one

    I like Windows 10's overall continuity a lot better, so I voted for 10. I can always give it the "Look" I want later(if I want too) the color and windowing is no big deal, Just look what Edwin has done with it.

    Poll choices need Win7 and "None of the Above" as neither Win8.x nor Win10 are very appealing.

    Not necessarily attractive to me. Just different. Some are good. And some bad. But it's acceptable. Some Linux distros are actually more attractive. But Windows 10 is different.

    If I had to choose, I'd pick the 8.1 calculator vs the Win 10 version.

    Agree with GEWB, I've never had W8 so no opinion on that OS. To me W10 appears like the display is set on the minimum, 16 colors, lowest resolution, 600x800. W7 to me is much nicer for appearance compared to W10 and it didn't have to be that way.

    This is 2015 not 1995, with even standard video cards/displays these days it could at least look like something newer instead of masquerading as "the new clean look" heck with that, give me the ability to adjust and change things with a myriad of options for the appearance and display. Hate the square sharp edge window design. I think there will be 3rd party applications abound for W10 to change things that for some reason MS saw fit not to include that capability wihin the OS.

    I think you can still install a version of the old Win7 calculator on Win10 and it works fine.

    I'll bet there will be third party themes that will be out soon after the OS comes out.
