that's odd...i would figure the libraries would be the easiest one to change. So even making a new shortcut with a different icon pointing to %windir%\explorer.exe doesn't work?

:/

Ah, that did the trick, didn't realize I'd have to change the icon to explorer itself but... that makes a ridiculous amount of sense, too much for me to have realized by myself, thanks!

edit: I lost my little tray arrow thingy . Now I cant see all my background applications!

maybe related or not but a couple things i've experienced:

1. UXStyle doesn't always work for some strange reason for me. Even though the service is installed it isn't always "active". If you have UXStyle installed and changing to a custom theme gives you a Win-95ish display, try going into task manager, press "show processes for all users". Then, go to the services tab, find the "unsigned themes" service, right click and stop it, then right click it again and start it. Then re-apply the theme. This always solves the problem for me.

2. Applying orbs restarts your explorer (and also very strangely elevates your user privileges if you don't have UAC off), so stuff you had running in the background won't really show up in the system tray. I suggest logging off and on after changing your start orb to make explorer load normally.

Thanks Threi, hopefully I don't run into too many problems, but I'll log-off right now (about to go do some off-comp studying anyway) before that, look at my near final desktop!

I want to do some more fiddling, but I am proud of myself.

Been having a strange issue with UxStyle.

I updated to SP1 and reinstalled the program after doing a clean uninstall. Restarted after the UxStyle install and was able to change themes. No problems. Shut off the pc and now when I restarted, I still have my theme working properly, but when I change it now, after a restart, it reverts back to a Windows Classic theme and even my original theme that was working when I rebooted doesn't load.

Only thing that seems to fix it is to uninstall UxStyle followed by reinstalling all over again. And even that is only good until I change themes again. Ugh. Anyone know what I can do to fix this?

Here's all the sources.

Edit: For the record, I found that Pikachu wallpaper by Google Image Search-ing "Pikachu wallpaper" on a whim. There's several sizes and color variations floating around in that search, along with small tiles of the wallpaper that can be repeated (using desktop tiling or by stitching them together manually I guess). I went with one of the lighter variants, the darker yellow made desktop icons way too hard to see, at least under a default XP setup.

Like I posted at the top of the page I am kinda having that issue too, not really sure why.

On the positive side you don't have to reinstall UXStyle every time, just restart the unsigned theme service.

My Desktop. The start bar fades when the cursor isn't over it so mostly you only see link.

I use complementary Vista/Opera themes for a smokey type display I guess.

I agree. Thread title edited to reflect this. It's annoying seeing:

or worse

Remember when you link your desktops, to link to the source, not to a larger version of your desktop screenshot. For example, that one with the pillars and Jupiter in the background is from DeviantArt:

Omnimo 3 comes with a stocks panel already, but i don't know how flexible it is.

Here is another one that showed up with i searched for stocks configs: http://browse.deviantart.com/custom...tor/rainmeter/?qh=&section=&q=stocks#/d2m2zgh

I'm new to the GeekTool thing. I saw this desktop and thought the multiple rss feeds effect was fantastic. Does anyone have a script for it? I don't think i've seen a mac os user post a similar effect
