Ok heres my Desktop as it is now, I have been jazzing it up a little and i think this looks better than my old Desktop.

All i need to do now is get some skins, Electric blue or Neon Blue for MSN Messenger and Winamp. Also i want to make the New Clock which is in white a light Blue, any ideas on how i can get this achieved is appreciated, i have looked but cannot find what i am looking for.

I did get a Neon Winamp skin but i cant seem to install it, Winamp skin is same.

Also i downloaded Theme Manager.

What do you think of it so far? I think its Electric LOL!!!!!!!! :dozey:

Depends on what you are asking about ;)
I have a patched UXtheme.dll file, MSN theme VS, LClock running in the task bar, rainlendar up top and the wallpaper is "The Falls" by Kol (find it on deviant art via google).

No desktop shortcuts dont take longer to load, its only items in the startup that take time to load.

As for that link you cant access it, says you need to log in

thats not proper 4 : 3 format (although its close lol )

Anyone using this res on a standard monitor are actually looking at a distorted screen ;)

Druchii 21-05-2006 01:52

Re: [Merged] Show us your Desktop or Wallpaper
 
Nearest to proper for me would be 1360 x 1024. But i like the extra space :)


The screen looks normal though :)

in C:/docs and settings/your_name/start menu/programs here you can add and move folders or rename them.
