Being an old blackboxfan there’s a few things that stick out:

  • In the bbinterface with the virtual desktops and the clock you should have used those unused pixels in the frame (under the date/time)! Even if it were only a blue box (same color as the background) or something to fill that void.
  • Everythings jives nicely in pixels and then there is that supersmooth mousecursor, no likey
  • On the logoff window the maximize button seems to be a bit iffy, what’s the deal with that?
  • In the mediaplayer there’s a lot of “wasted” space (i.e. the window for the songtext big much?). I would have loved to have seen the same style of back and forward arrows that are used in the explorer.
  • No addressbar in the firefox? Makes me think you hid it ‘cause it’s ugly as it is now ;)

Overall a nice classic blackbox shot though :)

Hi txtr.
I’ve been here in the past … was not a good experience…but I guess been older means wiser.
You are right the cursor is a big error. forgot it.
As for logoff there’s some resizing to do on the marlett but I merely use that app now (everytthing is key bind ;) now that am older)
You are almost right for everything else except the firefox, autohotkey changed my life, i don’t need a navigation window anymore.
P.s. it’s the slit not bbi but I see your point.thanks for your appreciation even if I don’t deserve one.That’s why I’m back here.

Moar classic!

Pretty consistent. My biggest gripe is the cluttered feel of the music player (the horizontal scrollbar on the playlist, I think, is the main culprit).

The control panel in the bottom-right is pretty sweet though. Consistent shot. Blackbox is awesome =)

I will ignore the cursor because of that marlett, that marlett is too good for words. Great job bringing back classic and resource hacking. Solid colors, great 3dcc
