Your thinking too much.. it's much simpler then that..
Basicly I took a Wallpaper that doesn't fit at my normal resolution.. placed some graphical elements on it.. created a completely transparent icon.. gave it (the .ico) to all the icons on my desktop so they all look like they're just text.. all done..

It's really basic stuff.. I just made it like that to make the desktop less clutered..

It's simple.. you can try it if you want..
Here's the same version I'm using, only it has your name instead of mine.. ^__^



Here's the .ico file: http://rapidshare.com/files/4029110/Blank.ico.html

:) Here's another .ico file that has you nick on it..
I have the arrow things that appear on shorcuts disabled as well as things like "Shorcut to".. But, just in case you like using things like that here's a custom one ;) : http://rapidshare.com/files/4030702/...cator.ico.html

It's the font files. The skins for rainmeter can't find the font files for it, so it's using a default one. Rainlender just doesn't look like the right skin. The "to do" list is different. Take a screenshot of the folder you installed the skins. You can just PM me the SS and I'll take a look into it.

Why don't you just restrict your global outbound?

Updated. Decided to go with a Vista-like theme just to show that it doesn't require a whole new OS to get the visual style. A simple skin for WinXP is enough.



Had to resize the wallpaper myself, though, since it came in 1024x and since 17" flat-monitors use 1280x... Have yet to see how Prince of Persia 3 fares, by the way. Somehow haven't got around playing it yet even though I did install it almost three weeks ago.

That doesn't look like Vista to me o.O
Here are some screens of vista, this is all out of the box stuff..
Spoiler for Container:

Spoiler for Container:


Also, the skin isn't the main focus.. there are lots of little things.. like fadding everywhere (when you close a window it fades in when you close a maximized window it tilts to the right and fades in while moving down slightly.. or when you click alt tab (the normal one not the 3d flip thing) you get a preview and if the image was moving (like for example in a movie or an install) you actually see it real time..

But the skin/style isn't the focus.. there are lots of tweeks everywhere.. and little things added here and there.. (Vista is defenetly lots more secure then Xp, and it's a lot easier to do things like encript files set read/write permissions etcetera..)

As for the system req, the 512ram (minimum) is bs, I know it's on ms's homepage.. but it's bs, you can run Vista with less, if you use the normal skin (and not Aero) it will run just like Xp..

You don't need to bash Vista, since it's an ms product, if someone says that Vista will permenatly lock your bios it automaticly turns in a rumor.. and there are more then enough anti-vista rumors out there..
Don't bash it until you tried it.
BTW, did I mention that I'm still using Xp a lot more then Vista Haha

Whenever a wallpaper is too big for my resolution or too small (or just doesn't have the right proportions to fit in my resolution) I usually solve the problem by either croping it in or out. When I crop it out, I'll usually add little stuff to make it fit.. but that's not always the case.. sometimes it just fits good with everything else that I just leave it like that.. for example.. my current wallpaper on Xp

The taskbar?!~ O_O
Do you mean the gadget-bar? (the one with the clock, RSS-feed thingy, callander.. etcetera)
If so then yes it's transparent.. When it's not in focus it fades to a form where it has a little shadow on the right side.. actually more like a thick dark margin faiding in) You can set the transparency for all the gadgets (by fixed numbers 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%)

Anyway, that's the Aero skin, all the elements are transparent (start bar, windows etcetera).. actually it's a wieard form of transparency.. it blurs the content behind it and allso has some kind of transparrent middle-ground consisting of what appears to be several diagonal 70px lines (which have transparency from right to left). there's also a feathered black border on the outside..

You were refering to the Vista Screens right?!~ o_O

Aero is just like a transparent skin. WindowBlind's skins "A Touch of Glass" and "Dreamland" do basically the same thing.

Exactly. Just like XP, except that XP costs a lot less and has the widest game-selection of the market. Vista doesn't have a single game yet.

Anyway, I was referring to the skin, which is named "Vista Plus."
