My School Toshiba Portable Tablet screen...
The reason there are no icons is because, i hid them. They don't allow us to delete icons, my screen is filled. Ill get my *real* laptop's screenie later. EDIT: Hey Robsy, I just realised that you-and-me both have the same Windows theme, just that mine is the normal WindowsXP colours, and yours is the "Noir" version? |
HEreś my desktop from a 3 dimensional view around the corner of my cube on Ubuntu Linux my gaming box :)

Go there, it's a Windows Explorer Shell replacement. That is instead of using the standard start bar and explorer you'll use another program called Litestep. A million and a half themes for it. If you're not interested in replacing explorer you can customize your start bar w/ themes from customize.org and other places like that. |
that is awesome!
I love that Linux desktop. I wish I had the balls to drop Windows and go Linux.

I used to try an customize my computer to make it how I wanted. I would change my fonts, color schemes, etc, but had given up recently. Thanks to this thread, I have new toys to play with. :D This is how it looks at the moment, though I downloaded tons of stuff so I can change it up regularly. :P I have ADD when it comes to how my desktop looks. :p
|
|
Lifestep looks great, but after reading about it, it looks scary too. Any easy way to get cool themes?
|
I tried LiteStep For a second, but I'll stick with WindowBlinds. =)
|
This what I use, have never had a problem. IMO litestep, windowblinds ='s bloat, but just an opinion.
http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=308905 (taken from neowin post) This program will patch your uxtheme.dll file so you can use any 3rd party visual style on Windows XP/SP1/SP2 and Windows Server 2003/SP1. File protection dialogs should be cancelled and a reboot is required after using this patch. |
My Desktop
Vista, RocketDock, SideBar, Sweetess

My theme is winFCE_1.6 with THIS wallpaper.

My Setup
2 Monitors :D
The screen to the right is my main one. |
Ubuntu Linux. w/ nice looking eye candy. Don't you agree?
WoW and Zero Chance of virus, <3 ubuntu. |
Man, I love that version with the cube. I wanna get it :p . Anyone know where i can get it, Store or Online?
|
|
These 3D cubes spin around so you see the face front on, right? :rolleyes:
|
Yes. And linux can get viruses, it's just that hackers would rather spend their time targeting Windows (which does have more holes) with its greater user base.
|
I tried Windows blinds once but apparently my "computer guy" said it gave viruses or programs it was affiliated with, Stardock maybe or something. However now, I want a black toolbar and menu etc. skin. Is there a welcoming program I can get one from? not vista...

I thought I woulda said it wrong, lol. Nice screenie
|
Thanks. :) Wallpaper is here: http://www.wincustomize.com/skins.as...=31984&libid=8
|
EDIT: Ignore this post, the link is further down cos I linked the wrong link ;)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thought that you people that like black might like THIS! it's basically the windows xp theme, but in black, I believe vista has one similar ooh, and in reply to an older post - Hellarion - thats a local IP, it's the same on virually every network ;) |
I want WindowsBlinds :(
Can I buy it in a store? Or do I have to order it from them? |

However there are the custom skins that you download to use with WindowBlinds that can sometimes contain harmful material, and also WindowBlinds tend to use a bit of resources so its not recommended if you are using high end software or games (wow, photoshop etc) as it slows them down a bit. If you still want to use it, i recommend browsing for sites that seem a bit more decent. These sites usually have a higher safety and check for viruses regularely |
Yes I was corrected earlier by seerah, Thankyou Malcite :D
"Affiliated" with Windows blinds, It could well of been a skin file. I'm trying to get the package thingy Rob posted above, but the files are downloading at 5kbps and disconnecting me from the servers moments through the d/l. :mad: EDIT: well i'm up to the stage where i need Uxtheme Multi-patcher 5.5 In order to run the Skin package Robthedude posted. I searhed it first for some info on it before i DL and came to a standstill when i read this comment "terrible" changes windows system files and makes them inreadable so windows becomes unstable. Do not download trust me. - dinggggggggggggggggg ehhh, to the computer file guru's, shall i Download ? |
I personally didnt like windowblinds when i tired it a while back. On suggestion from several friends i gave the less robust stylexp a go. So far im very happy. Doesnt have some of the flexibility i recall from windowblinds, but i find it easier to use so it suits my needs.
|
I actually just paid for WindowBlinds the other day. I used it all through its trial, then tried LiteStep, Aston, and perhaps one other, and tried living with the default look of XP again. I hate the Win2000 look, so changing colors, etc, myself was out of the question, and I only really like the silver xp theme of those three. So, back to WindowBlinds I went, and I paid the $20 as an early birthday present to myself.

In Linux, you have to rely on an application exploit to even try to do any dmg. Given the speed of patches (1-2 day turnarounds) it's improvable Linux would be hacked. |
eep! I'm really sorry Qynova, that wasn't where I originally downloaded it from, stop and nobody move!
THIS is it. I've checked, it's definately this one, sorry about the one before... :s |
My current desktop:
By xinhkero OS: Windows XP Home SP2 Theme: Ubuntu Human Theme (Blue), imported into Windowblinds Icons: NuoveXT-KDE (RocketDock and the lone folder) from KDE_Look.org & Equal (the drive icons) Author: Maidanov Likely my last major UI overhaul until I replace Windows with Ubuntu (provided Poste Italia does not lose the CD). |

Windose with an Unbuntu Look, I like it. I was an avid user of Windows blinds before I left windows. Well, I still dual boot XP for certain games that aren't supported in wine. Like Warcraft 1/2, I tried them in dosbox, that was just too much hassle for me. Or too repetitive rather. Nice Desktop. |
