The Post Your Desktop Thread

[Zelath]

I have been watching Ergo Proxy a bit lately so I decided to use a wallpaper from it. I had to clean up my desktop because it was a total mess... I have to clean it up quite often. (My way of cleaning up, creating a folder, throwing everything in there, change the name of the folder to the date, then throw in my documents)

Hehe, it's been ages since I've dropped by ASuki, but I made a new wp so I figured I'd post it.



Sauce: the girl was from a different image, not sure...


P.S. Awesome wp, Jojo (she's quite the catch ^^;

I'll most likely get a new monitor this week (then I'll probably switch to a new wall).

This was my first shot at making a background, so I'm satisfied with it.

That's cool. What do you need for that vista theme? Winowblinds or something? Or is there a simple download for it.

I'd really like to have a Vista-themed desktop, but I'm terribly afraid of the possible screw-up. Has it been thoroughly tested already? Man, in their forums I've read of horrible things ... but I'd really like to have it, though. Anyway, great desktop, jed.

Nothing speical in Vista -theme. Had it for a while for my WindowBlinds and have to say that Dreamland is better. If you are afraid of errors, try it yourself on WB. You can, of course, get the skins and tools from the regular places. They come bundled, IIRC.

That is a nicely done theme.. however, my theme does not require the glass2k its just a theme from wb without anything else. It's impossible to find it now since ms took it off the net. I find the glass2k app cause too much performance hits for me but, the flexibility on which windows can become glass is always awsome.

For the people who are afraid of errors with the themes, don't worry about errors. You can always reformat if you screw up some how but seriously, try it if you want to. I haven't had any errors for all the themes I tried; most of them are nicely coded. If it so happens that you are soo afraid but you want to soo bad, then make a restore point and skin away!

It's pretty cool. There's new sounds and everything. I had gotten sooo sick of the XP startup/shutdown sounds. I haven't had any problems (granted I've only been using it a few hours). And the only real "errors" I see are a couple shortcuts already being highlighted when you open the start menu... doesnt matter at all. There is a bit of choppiness when moving a trasparent window, though. So I don't use it for webpages.

[Radiosity]

MS have had the Vista theme pack removed from the net? Or am I reading that wrong? I've still got it, though I don't use it any more. Glass2K and transparency on windows are more of an annoyance than anything for me, so I just patch the theme file myself and use MSStyles I've downloaded instead. Like this one:
