hey how did you do that with the taskbar?

made a few skins for simplec and quicknotes and placed them next to each other on top the taskbar.The skins have no borders on certain sides so they look as if its part of the taskbar

Alright first desktop post :)

Thanks to Brw2k1 and Aleni for helping me find all the great icons and programs. I found all kinds of great stuff and i'm finally very happy with my desktop.

desktop-3-12.gif

I snagged the wallpaper bar off Brw2k1's earlier post and just recolored it and repositioned it a tad.

In the top right is a winamp plugin that displays the name of the current track for 3 seconds when it starts.

I used quickrun to hide my systray icons.

I used hook99 which Aleni told me about to flatten my taskbar and change my start button. I liked it a little more than tclock because you can also flatten the systray area.

The graph above the systray is DUMeter.

The cursor is called rainstik.

OS is windows 2000 sp2

I customized a couple of quicknotes skins called media monks and full frontal and made one skin out of them.

The quicklaunch pop is using a program called shortpopup that bananaman posted about in this forum. Very nice and free.

And I made the wallpaper, if you have any questions just ask. Thanks again for your help, these forums are great!

:devious:

edit: oh yeah also theres a winamp plugin out there allows you to control winamp within any program with a keystroke, i set it to ctrl j or something and program that to my scroll wheel button for next track. It works really well. I recommend you guys give it a try.

anyways, can someone post a link to simplec or simple controls?

**EDIT** didn't realize what the link above was for :paranoid:

i really like winamp remote, although i already have the controls in my taskbar, so i just use the scrolling song window. i haven't had a chance to really use simplec, but i will when i get home from break. it looks cool, and has more skinning options. also, don't forget the new winamp plugin for TLB, haven't had a chance to try this one out yet either, although this could be the one that takes over everything for me...

ummm, to make this dtop related, here's my old dtop :p

Image27d

those are just the winamp controls with the sosumi icons. looking forward to the final version and winamp skin..mmmm:)

my request? don't change to much, hehe, it already looks sweet:D

**EDIT** this link should point you in the right direction (they aren't the exact ones i use, but they should all do the same thing, lemme know if you have any trouble)

http://www.winamp.com/plugins/detail.jhtml...mponentId=29828

Don't worry the only real changes are in the shellstyle. and a pixel or two. I'm just basically reuploading to all the theme sites to insure that everyone is getting the same version.

I tried running Winamp remote and keep getting CRC errors opening the setup. is there another link to d/l from?

thanks
