Hmm. These are getting a little boring ppl.

Took me just under 4 years to download these on my 56k and they turn out to be blue backgrounds with a few icons on it.

You own me 4 minutes of my life back. :eek:

Argh! No! Get back thee, Evil!

I installed WindowBlinds once, completely and utterly fucked up Windows. Don't know if they've improved it, but I'm not ever gonna touch it again :)

Version 2.2 is out and I'm running it now. No probs at all and resource overhead is minimal.

Here's a screeny. It's a fairly subtle one, decided not to opt for N30 W4R3Z and crap like that.

Yeah, all credit to you, Kemposaur. Many thanks for that.

Your desktop looks a lot more heavily modified than the WindowsBlinds skins normally does. Is that Desktop-X doing that?

embattle, judging by the familiar looking icon in your system tray in one of the shots above, are you using a hercules gametheatre xp?

yeh someguy, thats desktop-x, it uses alot more cpu time than windowblinds, there are two other apps i use icon-packager and web-blinds, the first skins most of the desktop icons and stuff, if you look at the start menu in my pic u will see what some of these look like, and web-blinds is just liek windowblinds but for browser windows only, i would just stick with windowblinds tho, it does a fine job of browser windows, its just that i got web-blinds b4 i found windowblinds and have just stuck with it.

Desktop-x goes quite a bit further to modifying your desktop than any of the other apps, it totally recreates it, with interactive icons and menu's, having looked at some of the linux desktops i would think that it may be similar to using linux, but thats just from appearances, i have never used it so i cant say for sure :)

Have fun, a great site for skins for all tehse apps is www.wincustomize.com its cool :p
