New 12.0 Theme and Branding(note: 12 UI Styles and 14 Colors, currently)
For 12.0, we're simplifying the branding on the PortableApps.com Platform to make it more subtle and modern. The logo is also changed on the taskbar and system tray We're also introducing a new default theme that's more modern and clean with simplified iconography. The new theme is not yet complete, but we have included both a light and dark version, replacing the existing Default Light and Default Dark themes included in 11.0 stable. (Don't worry, we'll be bringing back the existing themes in an upcoming release for those who like them). The space at the top where the large PortableApps.com logo used to be will be used by an always-visible search bar in the final release which will have focus by default, enabling find-as-you-type search without the need for a hotkey. We recommend gray for folks testing out the new theme. It's still a work in progress and we're still finalizing the layout and colors, but we wanted our users to get a chance to look at what's coming.

@ John T. Haller - We're going for something that will work with Windows 7 and 8 (but still work on Windows XP) as well as have a cleaner and lighter feel. It's not quite there yet and we've been doing small revisions daily. It will look a bit more refined in Beta 2 and have proper hover states on buttons and the like. I'm a bit bummed I had to pull a couple additional features last minute, but I think it's better to have it more stable now and bring them in in Beta 2 and 3.
Operating Systems: Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 + Wine under Linux/Unix/BSD/Mac OS X;
32-bit and 64-bit Support: Automatically adjusts support and performance to each PC
