remove the seperator lines by locking your taskbar, but i have a 3d color scheme that makes my windows quite flat (not that flat but better than default windows classic) and the system tray flat ( real flat like using tclock).

about renaming log off, and removin setting.. just check www.virtualplastic.net

omg, OMG! how can i make my desktop look like that? is that linux or xp?

it's a litestep shell with ots distro, http://ls-ots.cjb.net

remember, it's a shell that replaces explorer.exe, so u cant use desktop to put icons etc, it might be change your desktop look in a second, but once u want to install another themes.. u gotta edit step.rc and stuff, and newbies do experience a problems in this part. becareful, it might fux0r up ur windoze.. if your using winxp or win2k, make a new user and get used to it, when it fux0rz up, then just del the account and make a new one.. easy

The icon for Serv-U Administrator is converted straight from OSX.

If you email me I'll send you the set, which includes several icons I have not seen available anywhere else

(for XP that is, of course anyone with OSX has them... ).

The background picture is done with Background Wizard, which can be found at Blink Windows XP (the link is 1/2 down the page under "Give your folders wallpaper" -it's a Geocities link, so you may have to copy the link and paste it into your address bar ).

The dock is a variation of a DesktopX theme from a friend of mine, deadzombie. You can download it at DeskMod. It's only designed to work on version 1.04 or later of DesktopX. If you use it, leave him a comment on DeskMod telling him if you like it. I know he's considering expanding it to add more features depending on feedback.

Don't worry about all the questions, we are all here to help each other out. Anyone else want to know anything or have ideas on how to improve this theme?

    • Anthropic introduces Claude Tag, a new AI teammate for Slack by Fiza Ali Anthropic has announced Claude Tag, a new feature that lets teams work with Claude directly inside Slack. The idea is simple: once Claude is added to a Slack workspace and given access to selected channels, users can tag @Claude in conversations and assign tasks. Claude can then work through those requests using connected tools and data sources before posting its results back into a Slack thread. What makes Claude Tag different from a typical chatbot is that it's designed to operate as a shared assistant for an entire team rather than a single user. Everyone in a channel interacts with the same Claude instance. This allows the team members to see ongoing work and continue tasks started by others. Furthermore, Anthropic says the AI can build context over time by following conversations in channels where it has permission to operate. This means users don't have to repeatedly provide the same background information for every request. The system is also designed for asynchronous work. Instead of waiting for responses in a chat window, users can assign a task to Claude and return later once the work is complete. Anthropic says Claude can break larger requests into multiple steps and use connected tools to complete them. Moreover, the system can also schedule follow-up tasks and continue working on projects over extended periods. Another feature allows Claude to keep the users updated and follow up on unresolved tasks when its optional "ambient" mode is enabled. The company says the tool is already being used internally for software development, data analysis, support workflows, and debugging. According to Anthropic, around 65% of its product team's code is now generated through its internal version of Claude Tag. For organisations concerned about security, administrators can control which channels, tools, and data sources Claude can access. Separate Claude instances can also be configured for different departments, helping keep information isolated between teams. Administrators can also monitor activity logs, review completed tasks, and set spending limits at both the organisation and channel level. Claude Tag is now available in beta for Claude Enterprise and Claude Team customers and runs on Claude Opus 4.8 that was announced this May. The feature will also replace Anthropic's existing Claude in Slack application, with current users able to migrate within a 30-day migration window. Lastly, eligible customers will receive introductory credits to help teams evaluate the new experience.
