Mine is mainly Vista inspired

LClock,
Aero Rainlendar skin,
iTunes Glazed skin,
Aero Styler toolbar,
Vista Firefox skin (edited to look like MSIE 7)
SYSDM Control Panel replacement
DockBar (change desktop from it etc.)
Winbar (change resolution, memory, music, volume from it)

Re: Latest Desktop
 

What program are you using for your dock?

It looks rather good.

Re: Latest Desktop
 

And just how much memory is all that eating?

Re: Latest Desktop
 

My desktop always goes to a plain grey background whatever I do :(

Re: Latest Desktop
 

I don't even have WinXP yet.

Re: Latest Desktop
 

My Current Desktop

Samurize and Konfabulator provide the info and weather widget. Wallpaper was found god knows where.

VS is areao4

Clock is tclock2

Ultramon provides second taskbar on second monitor.

Re: Latest Desktop

Apparent image crappyness caused by jpeg compression and I can't be bothered to do it again to fix it :p

Re: Latest Desktop
 

whats that stuff on the right JJ ?

Re: Latest Desktop
 

mine
nothing special, I tried a few of these customizing things after the last threads about it around here, but I somehow lost interest and this works for me.
(And yes, I know it's kind of stupid to use a kde-background image for a windows mashine, but I kind of like it)

1632K from Styler + 420K from LClock + 9786K from Railender = nothing compared to the gigabyte I have.

Re: Latest Desktop
 

a crappy samurize script i threw together a few nights back. I intend to improve it at some point with maybe some images but for now 'it does teh job'.

Its quite useful when playing CS or whatnot because it stays visible on the right monitor and i can see all the pc info :up:

Re: Latest Desktop

Re: Latest Desktop
 

that will definately be getting downloaded when i get back :up:

Re: Latest Desktop
 

i can confirm its ace :)

1min updates make your brain go funny cos your not quite sure if its moving or not, heh.

edit : it also downloads a few hours old cloud sattellite images and updates the map with them.

Re: Latest Desktop
 

We have far too many of these threads :(

Re: Latest Desktop
 

You know the windows taskbar. I like when it is silver, but hate the green start button, anything I can do to change that?

I just have a Lisa Snowden background, and windows classic for the other stuff

Re: Latest Desktop
 

snipborp goto www.neowin.net and click forum. then goto 'customising windowsxp. goto the 'completed visual styles' and browse the threads there.

Theres hundreds if not thousands of visual styles created for XP. im fairly sure one will be the one you are looking for.

Re: Latest Desktop
 

My laptop desktop

My home PC is literally a standard XP install.

Re: Latest Desktop
 

My Desktop PC

Note its an old PC hence the lot of junk.

I just installed firefox, which is why IE is still there

The changing the theme with stylexp or whatever was kind of done without any thought, so im not sure if the lines on buttons (circled in the picture) are supposed to be there, or some fault because I didnt close everything down before installing

Re: Latest Desktop
 

Re: Latest Desktop
 

I like your style.

What mods have you used?

Re: Latest Desktop
 

Mine looks a lot like Flavius' except it's Windows XP, the background is black, and there's more junk on the desktop that I haven't bothered cleaning up.

Re: Latest Desktop
 

I have a windows microsoft professional regular user edition 2006 with parity ram and a graphics card elite dual pro mega turbo diesel engine that outputs the visual styles on the fly as it detects my mood.

but i'm a mentally stable person so the background shows the same shade of blue everytime.

i use two icons to represent the DUMPSTER and the GARBAGE.

on the DUMPSTER i dump everything i might need later in the future, and in the GARBAGE i send things to be DELETED. sometimes i go back to the DUMPSTER and send things from there directly to the GARBAGE. It's a very convenient program that I advise everyone to get :up:

It took me a while to get it running but I think it was worth it. My computer is like a sanctuarium dude and it would totally decrease my productivity by %£1993302,33388..+44092~ if I was using the default background man

what!?

Re: Latest Desktop
 

the only more productive part of my desktop is the winamp/foobar controls on the taskbar. it means i dont have to task switch to skip a track or stop it from playing.

that and tclock2 so i can see the date without having to hover over the time.

everything else is purely aesthetic flav

EVERYTHING
and i dont exactly have a lot :(

your system is enviable tho...can you email me your superl3eetomghaxorsuperscript for winxp pro reg user ed 06

Re: Latest Desktop
 

I rarely ever use the desktop, since I'm accustomed to maximized windows. My mp3 player is on my desktop, which I control using RDP. If I want weather information, i just google 'weather <location>'. It's not like I need to know the weather since it's belgium and it is bound to be sunny/snowy/rainy everyday. My fastest PC is my laptop (1.2Ghz PIII) so I can't really go overkill with gfx or any other programs, so I keep the open applications to a minimum. That screenshot has 22 running processes, 4 of which are MSN, MSN, Opera and MSNPlus.

I don't really need to see how much HD space/Ram/bytes received/penis size or uptime since these do not constitute vital information. My computer is used to work, not look at PC stats

oh and i can't give you my system, it's copiryght!!

edit: could you please fix the GD front page for me please? Find the <br /> between the Last Post date and Name.

change it from this:

to this:

that will solve the 2-line-per-thread madness!
