The trillian theme got automatically installed for me. What you can do is to go to your WinStyles directory and under the Themes directory locate the PixOS.xptheme file. Open it with zip utility such as ObjectZip or WinZip and locate the PixOS trillian folder in the zip file. Extract that (maintaining folder info) to your Trillian\Skins directory.

Your best bet to find the matching wallpaper (if any) is to either search the wallpaper section for the skin name or the author name Additionally, someone may have made a Winstyles suite file that contains a WB skin and it's comoplementary walllpaper

For years, I've been using Netcaptor http://www.netcaptor.com It's shareware (30 bucks) tabbed browser with a slew of features. Crazy Browser was created as a freeware clone of Netcaptor.

Iran is suffering its own internal strife right now. The majority of the population is composed of relatively young people. The younger generation has been disillusioned with the fundamentalists in power and have been steadily getting bolder and more vocal with their protests.

The advantage of having separate programs is that it allows the user to use only what he/she wants without incurring the overhead of a large, monolithic program, the majority of who's functionaliy may go unused.

I just downloaded and took a look at that logon. It's really a zip file that contains the actual logonxp file, a jpg, and a readme.txt file. Have you tried extracting the logonxp file contained in it and try applying that with Logon Studio?

He may have done that with the old active desktop stuff in Windows. You can do that with DesktopX. For instance, on my desktop I've got a bunch of text-based DesktopX objects and edit box in which I can specify a search string and check off what kind of search to perform (google web search, google groups search, google image search, google current events/news search) DesktopX doesn't give you that out of the box, you have to set up some objects and a few lines of DXscripting to

The library on the left contains skins for various different apps (music players, cursors, icons,...) What you probably want is WindowBlinds.

You can find the shareware version of the program here: http://www.windowblinds.net Once you have it installed you can find more skins in the WindowBlinds section on the left hand side of this web page
