And hup, one more year.  
 
OK, the first year, it's strange...
The second, we say "waouh" !
THe third, we say "we are big".
The fourth, we begin to feel old...
And the fifth year ? Well, we're still there ! And we want to launch novelties.
 
Since more than one year we work on a big novelty. Till now, we didn't talk much about it, but now this novelty is more and more concret. So a small teaser is a must.

Read the whole article

Hmmm ... I have four conjectures:

1. It's a new bricopack for XP, Vista, and Seven.

2. It's a new program that allows you to make or customize your own .msstyles for XP, Vista, and Seven.

3. You're adding some page or code on the site itself to allow customization of the computer.

4. This video is supposed to mislead you into thinking it has something to do with Customisation when it's actually about the music in the background. CrystalXP will be transformed into the next iTunes!

Hm... I think it might be a program allowing you to create your own .msstyles... I hope it is anyway

Only one note; I feel disadvantaged since I can't read any of the French on that video, being English.

EDIT: Well, using the might of Google Translate, it is at the least a way of organising visual styles and uploading them, but that would not take a year, so I believe it is a way of creating Visual Styles and then uploading them to crystalxp...

Most probably, its a pack.

Happy Birthday to the whole community.

See! That's what happens when you try to rush learning French and Latin at the same time! I understood most of it.

Happy birthday CrystalXP !  

Maybe it's simply, and finally, the real identity of Enigmatux?

Who knows...

Happy birthday CrystalXP! And thanks to the whole community of the past 5 years. Without all the people there would be not much to celebrate for.

Happy Birthday , stay with us for next 5 years and longer.  

That was quite interesting. The video makes it seem like a combo of a new Bricopack (which I know one is in the works) as well as some kind of a program.

The only thing that hinders me is the NeOcean.com logo, which almost makes me think it is a website redesign.

In any matter, I like the site for what it is now, and sincerely hope that it lasts for another 5 years, and then even more!

Keep up the good work!

If it is a pack hopefully they will make it compatible with Vista SP2 iif its for Vista.

what if this pack was for linux only ?
 
just kiddin.

Haha
 
But wait... there were so many references to visual styles for Windows XP/Vista/7 maybe it's all a hoax, and it will be for Linux!

Stop fooling yourselves, they're obviously transforming CrystalXP into music hub.

the latest pack was "vista inspirat", based on vista, crystal design, and transparency.

Half of the world gone crazy after transparency effects a short time ago.what we may call vista effect or so ?

we have 3D effects, drop shadows and glassified most of our desktops, sidebars,
docks, gadgets.(all glass.)

so, what's their next inspiration ?

oh.. and how about "make a tux" online tool ?  people can combine penguins, or layer outfits on them ?

Yeah, I already thought of that, but that wouldn't require a year's work, just a few days of programming -- as you should well know, truth!

How long does it take to create a bricopack? A year? What if it's an installer for bricopacks, that works on all Windows OS (XP/Vista/7) so you can install/uninstall different ones easily and quickly? Though I'm not sure how long that would take...
 
A music hub? I wonder how long that would take... hm...
 
I'm trying to fit time scales to each of our musings, see which seem reasonable for a year... I wonder how many people are working on this? Their knowledge? And amount of time they put into it?
