You can right click on any posted desktop snap shot here, click on "Properties" to find the url of the photo and copy that to the clipboard, go to TinEye and paste the URL to be searched. Give it a shot!

only thing is you have to edit the .ini files if you want to change the font color

for centering icons

Not very crafty @ customizing, but I like a somewhat simplistic minimalistic feel for starting out the new year, fresh.

My background changes every 5 minutes. The CD Art Cover ties into iTunes and is fully functional. The Calendar, Tasks, and Events tie into Microsoft Office's Outlook program and also are fully functional. The Weather is accurate and also fully functional. The Heads Up Display (HUD) Clock is actually a Windows Vista/7 gadget so no extra processes running Rainmeter. Only Rainlendar, CD Art Display (CAD), and native Windows 7 gadget engine.

Happy New Year Everyone!

.+*+. 2010 .+*+.

Happy New Year Everyone

It's "CD Art Display" http://www.cdartdisplay.com/

Thanks, works great, also could you possibly link me to that HUD Clock you have on your desktop? You said it was a Gadget, could you possibly give me the link to it, or upload it for me, Because im finding it hard to find it on the gadgets website, I would really appreciate it! :)

Thanks

    • If someone chooses to continue using SB and therefore goes through the manual intervention in the thread, afterwards the BSOD problem is gone. Whether they then re-enable the task doesn't matter, they're done, though on such machines it might pay to keep it disabled in case the next update (if there is a next) causes the same problem. OTOH, if someone disables SB in the BIOS, the problem is also gone. Incidentally, I noticed that this task exists even on machines that don't support SB. It's just installed across the board...and runs. Doing what on such machines is a little hazy.
