Screenshots of Desktop/Start Menu/Taskbar Thread

This would depend from system to system & the fields you set up within the program.

I'm running W7 x64:

 

Wow. I really like this utility. It has a lot of stuff I have been looking for since moving to win7 and dropping RivaTuner and Speedfan from ordinary usage. I have been using gadgets, and they work OK, but I like this better I believe.

Can you share what you used resource hacker on? Was it to modify a skin? I messed with it a little bit, hoping I could modify the labels, especially the Temps/fans/nics, but it did not seem to work. Any resources or infos you can share on what you modified?

Sul.

EDIT: I really like this tool. Using resource hacker I modified some of the xml strings to be shorter and not muck up the display quite so much. There are some variables assigned so you can't re-label everything. Overall though, I much prefer this to the gadgets I was using. Thanks ever so much for including the screenshot with this in it!

 

You can change any of the RGB values to get the desired result Highlighted below is the background colour. Best way to find out, is to modify them yourself. Also note, that i have removed all other skins from the script.


The below values are a 'Select all' & paste from the script.

Code:

<SkinSetXml><SkinSet><ThinWindow numOfSkins="1"></ThinWindow><ThinWindow_0 name="Custom"><windowBg R="41" G="41" B="45"></windowBg><windowFg R="94" G="94" B="94"></windowFg><compFg R="132" G="132" B="132"></compFg><compDisabled R="76" G="76" B="76"></compDisabled><groupBorder R="132" G="132" B="132"></groupBorder><text R="234" G="224" B="221"></text><textOutLineSpecific R="33" G="33" B="33"></textOutLineSpecific><sliderBg R="68" G="116" B="165"></sliderBg><listHeaderBg R="109" G="109" B="109"></listHeaderBg><listHeaderFont R="255" G="233" B="0"></listHeaderFont><listBg R="221" G="221" B="221"></listBg><listFont R="0" G="0" B="0"></listFont><listAlternate R="238" G="238" B="238"></listAlternate><counter01 R="68" G="116" B="165"></counter01><counter02 R="0" G="255" B="0"></counter02></ThinWindow_3></ThinWindow_0></SkinSet></SkinSetXml>

 

Here is mine:
Very Simple



I like my desktop as clean as possible, also the tray bar

 

I couldn't post the HiDef pic of my DT here so the color in the pic is kinda faded, I also like mine Clean, I hate Icons with text on my DT....

In no hurry to finish this (1920x1080 png hosted by ImageShack).

 

Where did you get those icons?

Plenty of others have added to his work as well -- search "Token" then refine it by clicking on Customization, etc.

 

I think Ive used the Token icons before, but they didnt look like that.

 

You might be thinking of the original, "Dark", version. He didn't make the "Light" ones until a few weeks later IIRC.

 

Closer. None of it's my work. I might do something for Rainmeter, if I end up using it, but that'll be about it.
In case anyone's interested: digital excellence here, but I strongly advise custo newbies to image or backup first (no matter the degree of customization and method(s) used).

Edit: Added link.

 

I have been using this desktop for a while now.

Quite simple.

 

Nice wallpaper, btw. It's looking a bit as Stellarium that I like using as a screensaver right now.

 

Here's mine.

Enough minor tweaks to justify an updated shot.

 

Current. Traditional taskbar placement only because it looks a little off in the better locations. Hope to see this VS fully skinned in the final because I'm too lazy to do it myself.

 

Actual Desktop

Rules.

 

Very impressive!
Much appreciated
