Thank you for screenshots
We will add navbar soon ..
About CyanFox : really I don't want to discontinued it but my problem is I don't have a free space to build two ROMs .. I need to buy a new harddisk but that is impossible at this time due to university ..
I hope sometime I could build cyanfox.
For now I will keep development here ..

Dear Madridii & davidteri91,

really nice rom, i like it dark too. :cool:

Installed it once without a problem. Multi-Window & LowRam switch works fine.

Going to migrate soon i guess.

Keep on your good work!
