<rant>If you're not going to bother telling us what visual style you're using and the programs/widgets/background that are displayed on your desktop screenshot, don't even bother. This thread has been going for years every month, and you guys still don't get it.<./rant>

Anyway, are you using Rainlendar and if so, what skin? Thanks.

I did not bother because i'm using all the basic stuff, everyone else is using.

Rainlendar skin - Lucid

Winamp - AxonCore

Background - PsychoSexy Pack 5 found on devianart

First time deviantart user. I am not sure how to thumbnail my deviantart submission using a free account.

Details in screenshot.

I'm not a dA user, but can't you just use the thumbnail image provided on that page?

Just whack it in and tags.

Nice wall btw, it's pretty popular here it seems.

This is a big thank you to one of the all time great customizaion artists ? gef.

This DesktopX theme took hours to compile over the past week and I used gef?s Vienna DX theme as a base and adapted it to my own taste and style. If you have not tried this theme you are missing something. The animations are amazing. The little doors on the top bar click open and closed almost like the sound of a BMW door. Some of the other sounds and ?mouseovers? are wonderful and with a click of a button you can bring all the other attributes into play like the shortcuts menu you see at the bottom plus the calendar and weather gadgets on the side. The shortcut icons were collected from some of the galleries at Wincustomize and deviantART plus I made a few of my own using icons from my system with that powerful little tool that comes with Object Desktop, Icon Developer.

gefs gallery is here http://gef.wincustomize.com/ and you?ll also find some of his work over at MaxStyles.com http://www.maxstyles.com/news.php

Talking of MaxStyles, it would be amiss of me not to mention the ?instigator? of Vienna. Vstyler. The Windowblind is one of the all time greats and is hidden from view. Thanks, John.

There are another couple of items that are hidden from view but are equally impressive. Vienna Xion Player by messiah1 is acting as the media player and the Vienna cursor by J.Aroche is a nice piece of work. Two great additions to ?The Suite?. Thank you.

And last but not least ? the wallpaper ? a truly magnificent piece of art called Ag SiO by allhopeislost over at DA. This was one of the components of the a collaboration over at DA which bought together a Windowblind for XP and Vista, Styler Toolbar, Xion Player, plus a Firefox and Miranda skin.
