Your Desktop - v 2011

**m0de** · 03-4-2011, 08:14 AM

hello fellow arrow fraggers~ thought id start a new desktop/wallpaper thread. lets see yours [:

i spent a while setting mine up. some of the scripts such as the RAM usage on the right needs to be fixed.

links on how to have a similar setup:

(shell replacement) bbLean: http://bb4win.sourceforge.net/bblean/
(sidebars) samurize: http://www.samurize.com
(wallpaper) wallbase: http://wallbase.net/wallpaper/423307

other useful customization apps:

rainmeter - www.rainmeter.net - "Rainmeter is a desktop customization platform. Through Rainmeter, you can enhance your Windows computer at home or work with skins: handy, compact applets which float freely on your desktop, much like Windows Sidebar gagdgets, or dashboard widgets for the Mac."

windows fences - http://www.stardock.com/products/fences/index.asp - "Is a program that helps you organize your desktop and can hide your icons when they are not in use."

object dock - http://www.stardock.com/products/objectdock/ - "Organize your shortcuts, programs and running tasks into an attractive and fun animated dock."

rocket dock - http://rocketdock.com/ - "RocketDock is a smoothly animated, alpha blended application launcher. It provides a nice clean interface to drop shortcuts on for easy access and organization. With each item completely customizable there is no end to what you can add and launch from the dock."

**phe0nixblade** · 03-4-2011, 10:23 AM

m0de, also edit in that if you want the sorted icons like I have use a program called "Windows Fences"
If you want the little dock at the bottom like I have google "Objectdock" or "Rocketdock"
and if you want a little weather thing "Rainmeter"

**iironiic** · 03-4-2011, 11:12 AM

m0de's desktop wins for two reasons:
a) Pure epicness 10/10 here
b) He SS'd marco saying "wilson <3"

Seriously, that a sick desktop though @.@ I'll SS my dirty lame desktop soon enough :3

Just after I looked at his desktop I was thinking "There is way to much going on here" I guess it is just me though. I really prefer minimalistic themes.

This is just my netbook. My desktop pretty much looks the same but a lot bigger.

BabyViperx3 · 03-4-2011, 03:53 PM

Mine's pretty lame.

**shonen7** · 03-4-2011, 04:30 PM
