Check this
this was created using Desktop Earth a free program that changes the day/night lighting over the flat globe at preset times, it also updates the cloud coverage. I have added several vista gadget clock to track times in different regions of the world. I have the vista weather gadget to give me local weather.
I like this desktop, it is free, it does not slow down startup, and hardly noticable increased CPU use or temp in either AC or bat mode.

P.S. in error I posted the same information as a new post.

I don't care much about what I put on my desktop. But you can always put snaps of some gorgeous ladies to brighten it's look.

Hello
I don't like Vista but I like the Vista's look so I decided to change my WinXP Pro

And how window acts on some situations
1.
- "blue" mouse-over ; "orange" hot-button (eq. when someone text you by Skype)
2.
- active-Firefox' tab ; mouse-over the "close-window"
3.
- mouse-over the "maximilaze window"
4.
- active-Firefox' tab ; mouse-over the "minimalize-window"
5.
- better sample of my transparent TaskBar
Obviously TaskBar is transparent
If you have any question just PM me
Regards
