Wow! Theme + Icons = ? Not trying to jack your style, just want to check them out.

How'd you get Explorer all simple ans changed the icons on the left panel?

Yep, its just Windows Classic with the 'Simple Blue' 3DC theme applied. Icons are Tango for the system, and Pantoni's Elements for the Finder Bar and Recycle Bin.

The Finder Bar was a program I downloaded a while back, google it or try osx-e.com. As for the simplicity of Explorer, I'm using Styler to hide the menu, and the Tango Toolbar theme. Also I've used DColor XP to change the layout of the desktop icons to 'Tile' view...

Cheers!

I'll be honest that screenshot confirms why I love Windows. (for looks anyway..)

So, where do I find the stuff to make Windows Classic look like that? I Google'd it, Neowin searched it, I can't find Simple Blue 3DC. I found the icons but I don't get how to use them, as they don't seem to be the regular icons I'm used to downloading.

Sweet wallpaper dude, always looking for some good dual monitor walls and this is one of the best I've seen.

Great shot all around (Y)

Thanks. My gallery on dA is gathering quite a few dual screen wallpapers, as I make all of my own wallpapers, and I have two widescreen monitors... :) : http://rthaut.deviantart.com/gallery/

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • what other retro software do yall use

      By +InsaneNutter · Posted

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
