I really like the background in the second one, but think the ReactOS logo is not quite right. Maybe it needs to be more subtle to blend with the background - or maybe semi-transparent, or smaller.

In your PHP source, this might do the trick.

ini_set('magic_quotes_gpc', 'on');
ini_set('magic_quotes_runtime', 'on');

One screenshot of new explorer is available here: http://files.reactsoft.com/explorer.png
If anyone has more, please post them here.

I am really looking forward to seeing the new explorer. I know it's a lot of work, but it should really give some more momentum to the project.

No, 32Mb is about right. It's a small OS cause it's well written and theres still a lot more to do. Remember this is still Alpha software, so some applications designed for Windows will work, and others will not. If you are testing some applications and find interesting results, let us know

I can continue working on it if people would find it useful. May need help with some of the more complex features later on as I am new to the ...

Thanks GreyGhost, That has done the trick. I'll try to find something small to start with when I'm more comfortable with Win32 API programming. I'm used to using C++ Builder with VCL, which I assume is not allowed here. If anyone has suggestions on where I might be best to start (some small apps?), ...
