I've uploaded most things that I used here. Some apps are paid, like Widgetlocker and the Parallax wallpaper. Everything free I used is in the aforementioned zip folder.
The zip is hosted on my dropbox right now, if it goes down I'll upload it elsewhere when I get a chance.
Just recently started playing with Rainmeter.
Also, I used Classic Start Menu to replace my start button with one that looks like my show desktop button.

it was really easy. you can get the start menu from here, http://www.classicshell.net/
It has lots of options that are easy to configure, one of which is the start menu button. I took a screen shot then copied the image of the "show desktop button" 3 times like this:
settting up the button to have three images keeps it looking the same in all three states (no hover, hover, and opened).
You could even make the middle one brighter to have a highlighted look while hovering.
Windows basically scrolls through the image whenever your mouse interacts with it.
