Update: I've since switched to the kindly-shared "sugar lips" wallpaper, but that's what it looked like 20 minutes ago :D

Is that Trillian 5??? If so, how, when, why? :woot:

Lolwut ? :blink:

It looks really nicely done, but that's not appropriate for a .. guy.

Thanks again^^ Seems like I broke out of the generic guy stereotype :rofl:

I love that wallpaper! Care to share?

I'm not even sure where I got it, but it could have only come from 1 of 3 sites so I'll see if I can track it down.

Update: Here you go (not my original download location, but I'm not gonna argue with Google; it's the same wall) http://www.wallpaperstorm.com/wallpaper.php?photo=yellow-spikelet-wallpapers-22378

Windows 7

3RVX - Volume Control (default theme)

Remove User Picture

Remove Show Desktop Button

Remove W7 Libraries

Qs Win7 Dark Start Button

Taskbar Drop Shadow

Shine 2.0 final Visual Style

BMW E39 M5 Desert Drift Wallpaper (Can't find source on this one)

Just hid most of the system tray, system tray icons pop up in the normal Windows system tray icon area through the arrow.

No need for a clock, have one on the desk. Although may add a Binary Clock for Rainmeter, just for kicks (amazingly customizable). :p

Do need to work on the icons though... And add a little transparency to the start button.

Needless to say, I enjoy a minimalistic desktop.. ZainAdeel did an amazing job on Shine 2.0, was using his Win7 blend before the betas on Shine 2.0 came out.

how'd you move your clock and change it like that?

The clock is simply a Rainmeter skin that I have overlayed over the taskbar and enabled "click through". Then I simply chose to hide the standard windows clock in the taskbar properties.

    • Report: iPhone Air isn't dead, and a second-generation model is planned for 2027

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Report: iPhone Air isn't dead, and a second-generation model is planned for 2027 by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple Since the launch of the iPhone Air, we’ve heard conflicting rumors and speculation about the fate of Apple's ultra-thin iPhone. As it turns out, Apple is not going to ditch the Air model from its lineup, and a second generation is already planned for next year. As reported by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, citing people familiar with the matter, the second-generation iPhone Air is planned for spring 2027 and is poised to receive notable upgrades. The upgraded model, codenamed V62, will reportedly feature an additional rear camera for ultrawide photography. The new camera system is said to be in advanced testing within Apple. Gurman also says the second-generation iPhone Air could offer better battery life, either through a larger battery or software improvements. The overall design of the device is expected to remain unchanged. A single rear camera and below-average battery life were among the biggest drawbacks of the first-generation iPhone Air despite its $999 price tag. Hopefully, the next iPhone Air will fare better. Gurman also added that the device will be powered by the A20 Pro processor. The release of the second-generation iPhone Air in spring 2027 aligns with previous reports that Apple is shaking up the iPhone release cycle. Accordingly, the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and the company’s first foldable iPhone are expected to launch in September 2026, followed by the iPhone 18 and the new iPhone Air roughly six months later. The 20th-anniversary iPhone is also reportedly planned for fall 2027. Meanwhile, if you’re planning to buy the refreshed iPhone Air, Apple might surprise you with a new price tag. As we reported today, CEO Tim Cook confirmed that price increases are on the way due to rising memory chip costs and a severe shortage. With that in mind, analysts estimate that the base iPhone 18 Pro could cost as much as $1,399 this year. The current $999 iPhone Air may not be immune to those price hikes.
