Nice desktop... but can you please make a thumbnail next time? Having to scroll over an entire page is somewhat annoying and also against the rules.

* If you plan to img-embed your desktop, please try to keep it at/under 1024x768 and under 100k (It's recommended that you link it, externally).

Changed my VS again to get over the Vista/Longhorn effects ;)

Visual Style: System 5 (Glass Effect)

Wallpaper: Calm Bliss

Icons: Normal Windows XP Icons

Programs: Winamp (clearONEbeta)

DesktopX Modifications: Aero Calendar, Aero Weather

Clean and dirty provided as usual - enjoy!

VS: AMPed viSUAL STYLE beta TWO

Samurize (Wallpaper included): Artificial Evolution

(1280x1024 - 326 K)

A year later, I finally have something new! I modded this Samurize script a little. I added an image to the desktop, so it blends in with the wallpaper. It reads my processor activity, like the graph below it. I'm still trying to figure out what to put on the far, bottom left. I'm experimenting with RSS feeds.

Example of second processor monitor on desktop (it fades in and out with my CPU activity):

Where can I get this calandar prog? Both of these desktop calendars are awesome! Thanks in advance.

Yes, this desktop is yet another clone of these numerous Vista desktops. :ninja:

Besides the VS and wallpaper, nothing changed from last month, except that I gave XP the XPize treatment. :cool:

already been answered, but they are running:

objectdock (icons that are at the top of first shot and in an arc at the bottom shot)

rainlendar with my skin (links in above post and skin in my sig)

and mirandaIM with tweakUI plugin and different icons as the IM program

as for the pimping wallpaper, just color over the icons with orange using Paint. It's not that hard. The other, I believe, has already been posted.

hm.. im stuck.

i posted my desktop awhile back, but i remembered that i had a cool WP.

Cool desktop. But be aware that you're applying unified semi transparency to your windows; in 2006 we'll see alpha blended semi transparency. Until then we can do the same in Windows - with the help of programs like Glass2k, of course.

EDIT: here's an example.

    • Still 3x what it should cost. So, it seems the trick is to increase price by 6x so that a reduction in price back to 4x looks like a steal. "You savvy shoppers win again!" I'm glad I'm not in a desperate spot to actually even need this overpriced crap. Hopefully, it comes back down by the time for when (or if) I ever do.
    • Although AI is great and has it's use cases they likely have massively overhyped it and it has not delivered as per their expectations. I fully expect them to start saying the same things again when it does get to a certain level of intelligence!
    • Microsoft wants to end printer driver headaches with Windows Ready Print by Usama Jawad A few days ago, Microsoft released Windows 11 Experimental build 26300.8553, bringing a ton of enhancements such as Start menu customization, search improvements, Taskbar polish, and other minor UI tweaks. Another relatively major enhancement snuck deep within the change log was related to upgrades to the Windows printing experience. Now, Microsoft has shared more details about these benefits. For starters, Microsoft has renamed its Modern Print Platform to Windows Ready Print. The company believes that this name highlights its shift in strategy, which now focuses on modernizing, securing, and streamlining the printing experience for Windows devices. Some of the upgrades present in Windows Ready Print have already been seeded to customers and partners. This includes ending support for third-party printer drivers via Windows Update and transitioning towards the Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) and the native Windows IPP printer driver. In line with these changes, new printer installations will default to Windows Ready Print on eligible devices starting from July 2026. However, Microsoft recognizes that not all environments will be able to migrate to this platform immediately, so it will allow users to choose between installing the printer via Windows Ready Print or the traditional OEM process. Users will be able to toggle this configuration through Settings > Bluetooth & Devices > Printers & Scanners > Printer preferences. This control applies only to new printer installations, and its functionality can also be modified via Group Policy as follows: Launch Group Policy Editor Navigate to Local Computer Policy -> Administrative Templates -> Printers Find and select 'Configure Windows Ready Print driver ranking' -> double click to open it Select 'Enabled' (if you wish to enable Windows Ready Print driver selection) or 'Disabled' (if you wish to explicitly disable Windows Ready Print driver selection). Select Apply Select OK Similarly, if you set up Windows protected print mode through the same setting in Windows 11, it will also default to using Windows Ready Print exclusively. Microsoft hopes that these improvements will help eradicate dependency on OEM-specific driver installation processes and simplify printer installations. We'll likely find out more about other tangible benefits in the coming months.
