Sorry about ugly broader and messy icons :P

Still debating if I want to use RainMeter or not. Some of the gadgets in Win7 are very similar function wise, but finding not ugly ones is a hassle, to say the least.
 
Any chance I could get the link to that? I'm just seeing Vista and XP sytles on the Gaia09 site...

Here you go:

You'll also need:
UXStyle to run unsigned themes.

EDIT: Had my desktop featured on Lifehacker
EDIT 2: Wow my Flickr views are going up over 100 views a minute on that desktop. My whole profile is getting way more visits too, just proves that being nerdy is brilliant for raising the awareness of my photography.

Congrats. I need to shamelessly whore my work out more... views have trickled down again. I'm just happy that people even look at some of my stuff, bah.

I'm sure I'll end up fiddling with the themes and styles here shortly, now that I've got my new phone running a custom ROM, but I haven't quite gotten the style to my liking yet. Getting there though. Ahh, to be a slave to geek fashion :lol:

Thanks, I think the only reason I've been featured is because I've already done quite extensive modding to my dekstop on this relatively new OS. The majority of Windows 7 desktops going though the Lifehacker pool at the moment are using the Areo theme and Gadgets, which anyone can do. Sure anyone can reproduce mine but the fact that it is so different, so early on makes it stand out.

Azuremen I think you should check out Myriad Base Visual Style for Windows 7, it completely inverts windows which I know you prefer.

God damn it, SweetshopUnion, is the bird stuff a part of the background or does it have a function? That's a sweet desktop mate!
 
Here is my latest:

Lovin' rainmeter more and more with each day :D and i really love this wallpaper, you can really find some awesome stuff at deviantart :)
 
Those icons looks out of place personally, auto-hide would make it look much better. I've seen that setup on Deviantart before, but I've never tried to set it up, you did a great job on that one 👍

It's only the wall* but I suppose if I got creative with photoshop and rainmeter it could become a giant RSS reader, which would look awesome.

I love your latest, it isn't made up of lots of objects or complicated visuals yet it's so simple it looks stunning.

I'll take a look at it after exams this week. Have a week of freedom and will probably fiddle a lot more with Win7.

In the meantime, my latest.

Ayano Sato from the Ecchi Manga/Anime Girls High. I had to edit it to fit my computers background because it kept just centering it as a square and that seemed weird.
