I used styleXP for the general layout, the theme is one of the Chaninja ones, with aqua graphite background. The desktop stuff is done with samurai- i can send you the code if you want. Icons are silver system from styleXP. Oh yeah and as said all desktop items are on the taskbar (bottom right near clock).

That said does anyone know how to change the font of the minimised windows on the taskbar, and the icon for explorer (currently little page with an e on min windows)? And also does anyone know how to change the icons in explorer if this is posssible? (back and forward buttons etc). I want everything to be silver and blue...

I like everything simple, like me!

You can customize your win2k machine with skins. To do this you can use this program, called WindowBlinds. www.windowblinds.net
Also IconPackager works fine for win2k. This will change most of your icons. www.iconzone.com

Please note that these are demo versions and not freeware apps!

For skins and icon-schemes you can visit www.wincustomize.com.

Download Viper2 from samurize/Downloads/Pre-Exported Configs, It's the UKTV script included in there. If you do use it Fella, you need to edit the UKTV.vbs script in notepad and change all instances of wvw.radiotimes.beeb.com to wvw.radiotimes.com (basically miss out the .beeb). The rest is easy :)

Hey guys, I'm a fan of my own desktop. So thought I'd share it with you. Firstly, with nothing running, when the computer is sat all on its lonesome....

http://gamezone.loonyasylum.co.uk/imagehosting/hosted/mortstar_desktop__empty_02762.jpg

and secondly, when it is actually being used. I'm not 100% happy with the winamp skin, hopefully the GUI olympics will produce something that fits perfectly....

My new one... Final now I think.

I've settled on a skin made with the objectdesktop package. I think it looks amazing and is extremely functional. The skin incorporates winamp into your browser too! I've also got a hidden desktop object which shows disk info etc- it's at the top right of the screen and only shows on mouseover.

I think we should support people who make good alternative software!

mortstar
22nd March '04, 12:31
Windowblinds is the only piece of shareware I have ever paid for. It is such a useful and brilliant piece of programming that Stardock deserve the money. The fact that it skins quicker than the inherent XP API's is fairly amazing.

Andy a) name is mortstar :p b) the program is called Objectdock, once again by stardock, and even better it's FREEWARE :D

When the icons are separated there are invisible separtors between the icons. If you click and drag these separtors off of the dock to group all the icons together
