I alternate between this theme and one called Sustenance. I got them both from Neowin, maybe it could be added into the post at the start of this thread for a resource site My_World?

A rip off of Akon - Mr Lonely we played on the station a few weeks ago

Do you work for a radio station?

Yep, 4 stations to be exact

My_World, where did you get the Longhorn style bar?

Behold!

My_World, maybe you should include something about resizing the image before posting, maybe set a fixed size like 1024x768?

Hey CrazedFerret

who is that in the background

It is part of a complete theme named DameK Ultrablue from Wincustomize.org.

Here we go

Clean desktop space. A bit boring perhaps

What can I say, I like black and white photos.

New and improved.

You must click this

Wow Steve, that's incredible. I really like that. The balck...ah....it's really cool.

Well done boet!

Hehe..yea steve took a while to figure out but that proggie i got (Rainmeter) is dam awesome

To make the drive meters work change it from hidden=1 or hidden=0 then you can see the drive meters. aslo change the drive letters ect..

Thanks MeTsU I like the overall black look.

Ya Jason was an easy program to use just to modify it was a bit pain because everything wasn’t working properly.

yeah. the black is very kewl. I like that sidebar. The icons are pretty kef.
what u use?

Aussi, dont u find you've lost some screen real estate with that sidebar? I had the longhorn style bar once on my 17" running at 1024x768. It just grated me so much after a week or so I dumped it.

Thanks Takumi the program i used was Rainmeter and you can get it here.

Ya i think i've lost a bit of my screen with it but its ok and looks cool anyways.

Well heres a bit of an update the side bar thing on the left is called object dock and you can get it here for free.

You must click again.

Here is mine.. Similar to my neosteve's
I can finally acccess international properly now..stuped uunet was having problems.


Click for larger version, posted in Desktop Gallery now..

edit: wrong place to upload.. sorry - fixed.

This may seem like a stupid question, but how do you get rid of the recycle bin icon?

Here is what i used.

Start > Run > GPEDIT.MSC > User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Desktop > Remove Recycle bin icon from desktop > Enable.

Just before that Drag it over start menu and but it on the top under Internet and EMail program or something, so that you can find a link to it again.

Thanks alot Jason I am busy putting together a nice little desktop here...using Rainmeter and Object Dock... Will try post a screenie tonight.

Well uploaded my notebook desktop running fluxbox and rox on gentoo linux. I will add my desktop's desktop sometime

Did some changing on my desktop now and removed rox and gkrellm and now using torsmo.

We are still waiting for some pics

Now, that is pretty pimp.

I've updated my overall theme since my last post. The theme is called Rhodium, the icon pack is a slightly modified one I found somewhere online, the Winamp skin is called MMD3, and the background is a vector graphic of Alessandra Ambrosio which I Photoshop'd into a decent looking wallpaper.

My new desktop thanks to Xgl:
