I use StyleXP to Mac-ify my Windoze, and I've added a Wikipedia search box on my desktop. I like to keep my initial (startup) desktop as clean and empty as possible, so everything I add must be really, really useful. A weather icon does not qualify. If I want to no the weather, I'll open the curtains and look outside. Also, where I live it would be about as functional as a static "rain" image.
Other startup menu entries and "customizations" in the broadest sense of the word: a program that lets you run GNU/Linux under Windows (coLinux); Process Explorer instead of Task Manager; RSSOwl for news; HTML wallpaper; infrared Remote control; Daemon tools. Apart from that, I use a lot of custom software; you know, the simple hackjobs that you code up yourself for something only you yourself will ever need. But these I only run when required.

Rainlender v0.22.1
It's the old version of rainlender because it works with the animu skins found at http://sk2b.hp.infoseek.co.jp/
Rainmeter
http://www.ipi.fi/~rainy/legacy.html (you can get both rainmeter and the old version of rainlender here) unfortunately they stopped updating rainmeter for some reason. Really a shame.
ObjectDock v1.50 Plus
The latest version of objectdock is 1.9 I think, I wasn't able to get the tasktray icons to work with 1.9, and that problem was affecting their paying customers too. I don't know if the problem's been fixed.

Tab bars in explorer - QTTabBar 1.1 http://members.at.infoseek.co.jp/Quizo/freeware/indexEn.html
also allows for image previews. Works with XP and vista.
Transparent explorer window - Glass2k http://chime.tv/products/glass2k.shtml
can make any window transparent, including the task bar. works with windows XP, and vista too IIRC.

Not shown, but I also recommend:
FolderGuide 1.1 http://www.freeware365.com/desktop/folderguide.htm
Lets you right click in explorer and jump to 'bookmarked' folders. Also works in many "save as..." and "open file" dialogs.

Eh. Mine. I had the Enhanced Contact List for Trillian before, but now it doesn't want to load properly for me, which sucks, because that plugin had some sick skins.

Winamp is some random skin I got from DeviantArt, "spirit-black" or whatever.

I just use WindowsBlinds for the skin, and RocketDocket for the toolbar up top.

I'm not done tweaking it yet, though. I'm looking for a better skin for WindowsBlinds, and trying to get the Trillian plugin working again.

eh. Recently, my laptop's been a bit weird, so I'm monitoring the CPU and RAM usage, plus I live on campus, so keeping tabs on a busy network is nice. Throw in the fact that I often forget how much space is left on my harddrive (6.86Gb. My laptop has a mysterious drive named Backup (D:) that I think I can use as well for an extra 20 Gb.)

Just good to know.

Thanks a lot guise! Rainmeter and Rainlender are awesome. Grabbed the object dock too, cause it's one of the few things I liked about my old mac...

Still working on customizing things to mah liking, but it's getting there.

Only other thing I'd recommend is Automatic Wallpaper Changer. I like it cause it's got a delete current wall option in the taskbar to help me purge my system of old shitty walls. I have it set to change my wall every 30 minutes.

Here's the benefit of my work on it last night...

Yuki's two dialogues are:
"message 1"
Time

and on rolloever:
"message 2" Uptime "message 3"
"message 4"

I'm not sure where messages 5 and 6 are used, so i've left them blank for now.
You'll also want to delete the line "Substitute" under the Date heading, unless you want the day of the week displayed in moonspeak. Same thing with Uptime. And you can play with the Format setting under Date to get it to display however you like.


I dunno what your level of understanding is when it comes to this kind of thing, so I'm sorry if its stuff you know already...

How to milk free stuff from the internet, like gift cards, ipods, etc:

1- Install Firefox autoreloader: http://ihmp.net/@/xy

2- Go to this site: http://ihmp.net/@/op and sign up (free).

3- Go to the search page at that site and input any search. (internet hate machine, etc.)

4- Set Firefox to reload the page every couple seconds(right click any webpage then find ReloadEvery - there\'s an enable function)

5- ???

6- Profit! I won a $5 Amazon card in the first fifteen minutes. It might take you a little longer, but if you set it up every day, you get tons of free shit. (Make sure to check your \"My Prizes\" page periodically)

Tons of plugins if you want them, workspacewheel is one of my favorites. four workspaces i can easily scroll between. play with it and enjoy.

kk, i tried explaining it a bit>>357085but i'll try again...

right click the skin and choose "Edit Skin" in the "Skin Menu." This will open the .ini file that defines the parameters for the skin.
K, now scroll down until you see Message1="..."
Change the stuff inside the quotes to something like "The time in this space is"
For Message2, try something like "Running time:"
Message3-6 you can change to " " for now, to keep them blank.

Almost there, now we need to remove the moonspeak from the time format. Scroll down some more until you see [MeasureDate]. Put a semicolon (;) in front of the line "substitute=...."
Repeat this for the section titled [MeasureUptime].

Optional... to change the date/time settings to a more english friendly display:
Under the [MeasureDate] section, change Format="..." to
Format="%H:%M %a %m/%d/%Y"

When you are done, save this file and reload the skin (right click > Skin Menu > Refresh Skin)

That should do it. If not, let me know...
