He responded back with this answer: I think a large part of the reason why LCARS Interface is currently the 1 paid app in the store which is not as profitable as you might think is due to how happy people seem to be with it. Haddad told us: There have been lots of things added since your initial article. Every component that was in the app at that time has been improved.
More features have been added to the media player, the log editor has grown to support audio and video logs in addition to just text, and the calculator now has full scientific capabilities.
Those are just additions to the modules that existed at initial release. Several more components such as international weather information, a file manager, and a clock that has stopwatch and countdown functions have all been added since.
I've had a lot of people e-mail me and say they love leaving the clock module up at work on a second screen or take notes with the text editor. Apparently it gets them a lot of attention from co-workers!
It is great to see people use this app for actual work because for a couple decades now people have been trying to make LCARS work as a real interface. Hopefully this app has taken a step in the right direction for it, although there are some other great LCARS programs out there too. There have been lots of people who love it so much that they are asking for deeper integration with Windows and some other functions that just aren't possible within the restrictions of Windows Store apps.
This may lead to a more integrated Windows desktop application at some point though if those restrictions really start getting in the way of how good this app could be. There has also been a new side of the app added that caters towards those who would rather play with computers on a starship than work. Several modules have been added that would simulate what a ship computer from the 24th century might look and act like. Obviously these designs are based upon things from Star Trek, but they also are interactive and aren't just a bunch of buttons with numbers on them that don't do anything.
I think this adds a lot to the fun of it to be able to press buttons and see things actually happen as you would expect, and being non-canon to the shows isn't necessarily a bad thing. Perhaps some day these modules will all interact with each other for a full ship simulator!
Loved it. Windows 8. Still, they have a great list of choices to use these themes as per their likes. Loved the list. Your email address will not be published.

I've turned turned the picture insert to a Hyperlink just so you can see the theme with the "Full Glass" app applied, it adds to the theme don't you think? No problem if you tell me how, where and with what program to use like resource Hacker of restorator , to insert the Control Panel left pane image, which I believe is image number or , I'll insert them myself at my own risk? As usual for good practice I will create a restore point and also back up my OS using Acronis backup software before applying this newly created shell 32 to go into the sysWOW64 folder which allows me to restore my OS in 15 minutes if anything goes wrong so there's no real risk at all.
Incidentally are you considering and Windows 8 version of this theme, if so I will be a beta tester for you? I cant believe how extensive and complete this theme is, including many third party programs menu tabs etc, very impressive! Yes it's the left sides area, than my answer is correct. Hey, the transparent background of your control panel looks cool. If you downloaded the Shell After this you have to change the bitmaps into 32bit with alpha channel!
