This is my primary screen. Got another one, but that one only has taskbar + start and nothing more, so no point in uploading that.

Wallpaper

- Agony (http://ig.metian.nl/85193eaa61948ae5a6130a424d51e44d.jpg)

Programs

- Rainmeter with Enigma theme

- Objectdock with Noir theme + Addictive Flavour icons (which are Ps and Dw, the others are customized by myself)

May I ask what the name of the visual style your using is?

im using Clearscreen Sharp:(transparency turned off, and color all black)

Ugh I wish I could tolerate transparent themes

Why can't you tolerate them? Especially since even the default look of Windows Vista/7 utilize transparency, and the menubar on modern macs are also transparent. It's kinda standard now.

Though, it seems you're not totally against them either... you sound like you WANT to use transparent themes, but have trouble with them? What exactly gives you trouble with using them?

no one uses winamp anymore?

Winamp is still the best player, but I cannot stand its media library; it's difficult to find what you're looking for and it's an eyesore. They really need to recode that **** into something more modern. If they released a new plugin that mimicked the Zune library or even iTunes (though coverflow is more eye candy than it is functional it's still easier to use) then I'd go back to it in a heartbeat.

Here's mine for today:

That wallpaper is awesome, can you post a link to it please? :D

Well, technically I can't, because it wasn't a wallpaper, it was a piece of art that I found on Deviantart and then blew up and cropped in Photoshop. I'll give you the link to the original though so you can do the same.

    • I totally disagree. Very little good comes out of governments all around the world manipulating everything they can and usually the people are not the benefactors. What you say about being restricted and expensive sounds almost like the arguments against firearms and why banning them will protect people as if making something illegal somehow will prevent the criminals from having and using them. AI being far less mainstream could simply mean the average person will not benefit, but "big brother" and the corporations will benefit, which is almost for sure NOT a good thing.

    • "connect with audiences" is the most obvious corporate speak you can think of. I only bought Need for Speed from EA because it was the only racing game with cops in existence and I dig that. Now that they killed off NFS franchise, I have nothing to spend money on. EA is officially dead for me, just like Ubisoft which I've been boycotting for some 20 years now...
