I forgot the exact name but something like Wincustumize.com or something? There are sites that you can download thousands of different Themes.

Well that might be a way of doing it but my secret is this
I went to crystalxp.net they have a number of different styles called bricopacks which you can download and use and you can download lots of additional content as well

Very well actually - things don't lag at all really(unless explorer.exe decided to use up all the resources and has to be crashed). I have two gigs of ram(although I haven't noticed much difference sense back when I had one gig), but I have an old 3.2ghz single core p4 processor(Northwood). My graphics card is a Nvidia FX5950 ultra, pretty slow by todays standards.
Either way, I have no trouble running 5-10-20 or more tabs in Firefox, am always running Winamp & Trillian 3 basic, xfire, whatpulse... I run a lot of things.
Runescape lags somewhat, however that is because of my amazingly high ping(800-1500).
Black & White 2, my most recent game, runs fine at full specs(I have played it with all those other programs running too, no problems there) - no noticeable lag at all.
edit: Oh wait, I have Portal: The First Slice, which ran fine also...
Part of my good speed probably stems from not having a bunch of crap running at startup - I make sure nothing runs unless I have approved it first. This means that, unless I am currently running said program, its like it wasn't ever installed(more or less).
I am also running XP SP1, and while I may not be protected by the latest patches and whatnot... it runs better. I also don't get viruses, as I use the best anti-virus software ever invented: Common Sense(Well, that and ZoneAlarm Security Suite).
I am quite happy with how this computer is running, and don't plan to upgrade for a while.
edit:
Internet wise, I can't have more than half a dozen tabs loading at once, or firefox does get slow - however I can be browsing on like 3 or 4, and downloading full speed in the background with no trouble!

And to all you people using IE Out there... Or Opera... or Safari...

^ You just gonna let him starve!
Well, theres also the fact:

Besides, as we all seen from my desktop, Firefox owns. Who really wants dried up old IE anyhow? Speaking of which... >.>

0 Desktop Icons, No Taskbar. All the stuff on the top and bottom left hide when the mouse isn't over them, and all of the bars/icons are fully animated, so win. If you don't know how to use it all you can see on my comp is the Shutdown buttons on the bottom right.

GetDown is the name of my Counter-Strike team. Technically I'm still on the team but I don't play anymore, unless I'm needed as a backup which is hardly ever. Doesn't change the fact that I'm still very close with three people on the team (including the leader) so they gave me this backround to use.

Nice desktop.

Windowblinds is for nubs, but it's the best thing out there unless you know how to configure the Windows Shell. xD Get that, object dock, and rainmeter tbh, so you can make it look like my new desktop:
By Creamlistner on 26/09/2008
Eh, I use Desktop Sidebar most of the time, clock, CPU and graphics card heat ad performance, as well as news and weather... comics, lol.

Of course, now you cant see the Background image very well with the sidebar, but usually I have it up when I'm surfing the web or watching youtube of something...
Anyways, In the time from posting my last shot, I found a youtube vid on how to install new themes, found a saucy one on DeviantArt and got it up and running. Only complaint with it is its changing my firefox theme and making text boxes dark, which.. isn't really a bad thing, but it looks out of place in a bright website...

By Samurai-JM on 26/09/2008
^Thus the purpose of rainmeter, it friggin pwns for those exact reasons. You can have ALL of your computer stats:
Drive space/performance
CPU performance
Heat/Fan speed
and you can get other little widgets and such for other parts of your computer
+ crap like calendars, clocks, and media players right on ur desktop.

Best of all, no hideous bar blocking the hawt pic on the screen

RainmeterHUD Vision(RM Skin)
The parts of it I'm currently using are:
Wireless
Winamp Interface
RAM
Network
HDD 1
Clock.Vision
CPU
Battery
You can choose white or black, depending on what looks better with ur desk. I'm using white, since the bg is black.
By Multikill529 on 27/09/2008
So I can't seem to change the skin on rainmeter, and windowsblinds won't install at all, keeps saying I need to restart after I already have. Tried running as administrator with no luck.
Any suggestions?
By Samurai-JM on 28/09/2008
for RM you right click the icon in ur system tray, goto configs, and select the one you want.
to install skins, you must put them in the Config folder of where you installed RM.
For windowblinds, you might have to DL the cracked version lol, I'll try to find it for ya later.

PFFT, cream takes advice from me.

Right now I have windowblinds, objectdock, and rainmeter, as well as cursor, sound, icon, and other programs that you can't even see. Even my bootscreen and login screens are amazingly awesome!
But yea, windowblinds, objectdock, and rainmeter are the big ones. I believe I posted the windowblinds link above, and I'll try to get objectdock. rainmeter is a freebie.

You'll need some technical skills, like knowing how to:
o
Burn an ISO file to make an install DVD (A good example of what we mean by “technical”)
o
Install Windows (of course)
o
Backup and restore your PC (There's a chance of losing files, so it's a good idea to do a backup of anything you want to save.)
o
Set up a network
It can be glitchy—so don't use a PC you need every day.

Redid mine once again. Dual monitors now!

Got rid of all the resource hogging crap that did nothing but look fancy and slow everything down(COUGH OBJECTDOCK AND DESKTOP SIDEBAR COUGH), so now I'm down to a taskbar(with desktop folders/icons in a nice little menu) and Winamp. Also replaced windowblinds with a simple msstyle shell theme for the taskbar. No memory was hogged in the making of this desktop.
LEFT DESKTOP = 1280*800
RIGHT DESKTOP = 1440*900
thus the space at the bottom of the left screen.

* note screenshot is smaller than the actual because the site I normally use to upload huge images is down. ><

By Samurai-JM on 08/06/2009
you can either just delete the icon or right click your desktop, goto Arrange Icons By(or something like that) and uncheck Show Desktop Icons. That'll hide them all.
If you do that you can right click your taskbar and put a toolbar for your desktop so you can still access everything from there.

Your wish is my command!
I am using:
LiteStep - modded
zero theme originally by k1netx
Rainmeter - modded
Enigma theme, with a few extra meters, such as the
weatherCD Art Display - modded Enigma theme provided in the Enigma package.
Currently, the line that seperates my taskbar was made by me and also the side bar was. The weather was highly customized, changing the sizes, which makes it near unrecognizable. I did use that meter.
On LiteStep, I changed quite a few of the "meters", moving the open programs to a taskbar area, and moving the system tray to the bottom left hand corner, allowing it to open like it is in the process. I would probably try to do more, but I just cannot think of anything that big right now that I would want to add to my desktop.
I also changed the configurations to allow me to use the click on desktop features of LiteStep to the way I wanted. A double left click opens up the start menu. A middle click (Yes my mouse has a middle button), brings me up a dialog of all of my shortcuts that I would have on a desktop, and then a right click shows me options. These can be seen on the previous page, but they look more like the picture shown on this page.
I made the background to the desktop-click and I also changed the font and made it to where it accepted the pictures.
Any questions? Is there anything I can help with? Do you need more information? Is there anything that you think I should add to my desktop? Change the shape of my sidebar to be more straight? I want something to do.
By Nick on 08/10/2009
That will be pretty easy to make a how-to speech for. Best of luck on it.
Looks pretty good though. Did you make the icons for docks yourself or what?

Looking good guys. Keanu why Fedora?
I am going to start working on my desktop this weekend and then I will post a picture. Right now it is just Windows7.

Running a server. Was going to install Ubuntu but after installation fucked up several times and considering what happened with the WG forums while on Ubuntu (Which are still going pretty damn slow for me) I was reccomended Fedora. Free, easy to use, fast and it's working good so far

Eh, fair enough. Ubuntu runs fine for me; I did have some trouble with the installer though(I think its got a few bugs still, TBH)
@Samurai-JM:
Yea, its a problem. I'm using Compiz Fusion here on Ubuntu - it works great for me. The important thing is I can run 3D apps in the multiple virtual screens, and not have any issues switching between them.
I currently have it so pressing f9-f12 toggles screen 1-4 respectively; holding down ctrl+F9-f12 shifts the current window to that terminal. And if I hold down the middle mouse button/my scroll-wheel, I get to free-form roll around my desktop like that pic. The only issue I have with it, no AA while doing that.

I don't know what you are talking about, forum wise - what exactly is slow? The first time you load the forums after a restart? Each page?
It seems fast to me - Could it be your connection?

First time I load after a restart, mostly the images which take like 20-30 seconds to load first time round.
I doubt it's my connection, Virgin Fibre Optic
By Nick on 12/04/2010
You, calling us creative? I laugh.
It is mainly from the program called Rainmeter. There are tons of skins on DeviantArt with the different "meters" that you can add. Just takes some time and a little thought to transform your desktop to what you want.

Well, there -are- a lot of images...
But still, I mean... From an empty cache, and loading Firefox up for the first time with this post window(along with 6 other tabs)... 12 seconds. And I'm on 1.5mb DSL.
Perhaps you don't have Pipelining on? You might want to get the FasterFox extension, or google for how to speed up Firefox.
edit: Note, some of the topic pages -can- take up to 30 seconds to load. However, if you look at the loading text, you will see most of the time being taken up loading stuff from Imageshack. So, nothing we can do; if people want Imageshack sigs, those images may just take a while to load.

By WG_Keanu on 25/05/2010
Tabby > Boxxy.
Someone make me a background like that for Tabby. 1080x1024, colours to suit the Royale Noir theme for XP pleeeese
Gene, I wanted that background. I remember you posting it as one of the pics for piano preludes and I had to settle for a resized, pixelated version. Can you upload that one just as the image?
By Quikdrawjoe on 25/05/2010

Right now my set-up is just pre-set stuff.

I wish they had decent enough DreamScenes for 1920x1080 to where the quality wouldn't look like shit and it looked really cool.

Yeah, good Dreamscenes are rare as hell to find.
