THIS IS NOT FOR COMPUTER NOVICES!!! be sure you know what you are doing BEFORE you do it. you actually do not need a program for this. remove the programs that show an icon in your system tray from your start-up folder and the registry. load the programs with a script (a batchfile would be the most simple solution). Startup Control Panel (freeware) by Mike Lin shows you which programs load at startup. it also has options for savely disabling programs for experimenting. http://w

typography often looks excellent on vector wallpapers or wallpapers done by illustrators. but as the wallpapers here seem to be 90% 3d i can see your point. on the other hand why complaining about something you get for free just search a little harder.

how about the GPL thing? as i said above, redistributing and modifying is allowed, but still requires credit. also the derivative artwork needs to be put under the GPL as well. link to the GNU Public License: http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html the Linux logon by Jesse https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?authorid=13155 is using a penguin by Everaldo Coelho http://www.everaldo.com/crystal/ there is no credit, neither in the description nor in a readme file. als

hey James, no need to put down your skinning skills, actually your Rainlendar skin is one of the most complete around, and the alpha blending is sweet. needless to say there are a lot of apps that are much easier to skin. there is a little bug though (in Rainlendar, not your fault). when you apply images with the skinning gui, it will write hardcoded paths to Rainlendar.ini file. this makes the sk

Reply to Potential contest idea: Design your own desktop in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

i think the point is to create something that can not be done in any software yet so the point is not to submit a theme but one or more fake screenshots. it will be really hard to "invent" something new. if i look at the comments above, hotkey and vwm features seem very limited in DesktopX, but they aren´t in other software (seems like payware isn´t that "superior").
