XeroxZer0 Posted July 22, 2019 Share Posted July 22, 2019 Wow, I haven't been around for a while. Seems no one shows their desktops any more. I remember each month, by the end of the month there was pages of people posting screenshot of their desktops.

+Anarkii Subscriber² Posted July 22, 2019 Subscriber² Share Posted July 22, 2019 I find that no one really posts anymore because when it comes to customisation, we have mostly seen it all before. Mine hasnt changed for months, Heres mine anyway, maybe will inspire others to post. Default Windows 10 look, Rainmeter with ForceXtended skin. Sorry for the huge pic, I dunno how to resize to 50% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+InsaneNutter MVC Posted July 22, 2019 MVC Share Posted July 22, 2019 I think all the customisation went away when people moved on from XP. In the XP days I remember having custom icon packs that would replace near enough every icon on Windows, custom themes, login screens, mouse pointers and even boot screens. After all that it was worth showing off your days / weeks of tweaking. These days you can set a login screen background, Windows also supports choosing the colour of the start menu, title bars, taskbar and action centre out the box. I used to use the last free version of ObjectDock for a long time after I moved on from XP. However Windows gained ability to pin apps to the taskbar, which made having a dock containing all the apps I frequently used a bit redundant, although I did use it out of habit for years. My desktop these days is essentially a simple background with the task bar, even my start menu is the most minimal it can be: Less is more, I just want something simple that isn't cluttered. allannyholm, Dick Montage and margrave 3 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCA Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Welll customizing was still pretty strong after WinXP on Windows 7. After that not so much. But I still enjoy it and just don’t do it a frequently anymore. benten2000 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ve7878 Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Windows 10 1903 with the 5th anniversary Insider wallpaper released a few days back. Kubuntu 1910, very similar look for me after a couple of tweaks but a solid release so far. Sean B. 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
