    I could use something like that where I could keep a to-do list on the desktop -- what kind of software is that?

    I don't like the clutter so I hide my Desktop Icons.

    Okay, Rainmeter is the thing with the news feed and the to-do notes, with the Enigma theme. The docklet at the bottom is Rocketdock's Objectdock, with some custom icons. The icons took the most time to find, but DeviantArt is a good place to find them. Wallpaper you can find yourself. Right click the desktop and turn off "Show desktop icons" to hide shit, and I have ObjectDock hiding the taskbar.

    I finally got tired of windows, so back to ubuntu. I've got to say, it's been two years since I really used it-and things certainly have changed for the better.

    Anyway, new desktop.

    My current desktop:

    [​IMG]

    Been working on it for a few days, and I think I've finally gotten it to about where I want it. For now, at least. We'll see how long this lasts before I start getting bored of it. :rolleyes:

    Uses Rainmeter with a number of different skins combined and with their fonts/colors altered some (default Enigma, Dark_Rainmeter, Mini Weather Yahoo! Edition, Notes Plus+, Winamp Circles), Rocketdock with Lucid icon skins for the dock in the upper right, and a reskinned Windows start button (don't remember where I got that).

    I found the desktop on Wallbase some time ago, don't remember the search terms.

    (Um, do yourselves a favor and just ignore the Netzero taskbar icon. My dad's an idiot and doesn't realize that dial-up has been obsolete for over a decade. >_>)

    That looks like one of the start up windows for Half-Life 2.
    I don't know if its the perspective, the white font in the background... but seriously, compare: Link, link, link.

    I think the Nightwish in your taskbar can override the douchebaggery that is NetZero. Win.

    Here's my current one. Rather bland, but I don't spend much time looking at it.

    I guess. I've never played Half-Life, so it wasn't based on those or anything. Just a coincidence.

    Oh, good.

    Trust me, if I had any say in the matter, we'd have been off dial-up years ago. But nooo... :facepalm
