May Desktops

Is that the new windows longhorn?

Nope :). Thats my day of messing around on XP. Personally I think it looks better than LH, and I know it's less buggy, so I'm happy to stick with it :)

Nope - its my new Crystal Slate theme with a modded start button:

Using some sort of sidebarr app (desktop sidebar, I think), and glass2k + something like powermenu for windows transparency.

Well, heres mine (pretty much the same):

Yep, as you know it's your theme heh, and it's a start button that was found in LH 4074. We actually haven't figured out how to get that start button enabled on 4074, but I took the images and used it on XP anyway, it's nice :). Lets see, to lay this all out... the sidebar is Dashboard 2.0 Beta, the wallpaper is from Longhorn 4074, the icons are from 4074, the clock and start menu are modded with LClock (search the Neowin forums to find it), the transparency is a combiniation of powermenu and glass2k, and the transparency is Y'z Dock (Settings: Top -2, Left 30, Bottom 30, Depth 150, Right 6, Offset 0. Made to match 4074 shadows). I think thats about it. That was what I did with my day yesterday :) If anyone wants any more info about any of it just IM me :)

where can i get those icons for the desktop and also the folders?

From Longhorn 4074. They are ripped from the shell32.dll file :)

Well I just bough a lappy 1 week ago and since it got Windows XP home install into it, I'm gonna share the little mod I made to it before I got rid of Windows not that I don't like Windows, don't get me wrong and don't flame me either, but I'm wayyyyy to addicted to Linux.

Anyway, here it is: (PM for any info)
