Anubis, what desktop mod programs are you running? I love the weather on the side!

its simply Object dock
http://www.stardock.com/products/objectdock/

i use the plus version as i like having 2 seperate Docks, the weather flyout is teh included weather thing for teh dock, you just hover over it and it pops out and if you click on it itll take you to the accuweather page

the stats thing is Coolmon, the old version, i never got 2.0 to work right

and im useing Ultamon, for the 2nd taskbar and 2 seperate wallpapers,

thats pretty much it

Hey Anubis (or anybody who uses them), do you find those apps to be resource intensive at all? They look cool and I'd like to give them a shot, but not if it is going to bog down my comp.

with 2 docks and all ths stuff i have in them, on auto hide it uses around 25 megs, pops upa bit when you use the weather flyout, i never noticed it bogging anything down, with 2 gigs of ram not much does

Ok cool. My system is an A64 3000+ w/ 2GB RAM, so I wasn't sure. I'll give them a shot tonight. :thumbsup:

What programs/OS are you using (XP I assume?) and where did you get that WP?

Your desktop rocks.

WinXP
Visual Style: Area 04.2
Winamp skin: Simplicity Clear
Objectdock for the dock on the bottom

Wallpaper is a modified form of this.

Some anon on 4chan modified it in a thread long gone, I've uploaded it here: click
 
So, I wanted to get insulation in my attic, but first I figured I'd install a ceiling fan in last bedroom that didn't have one. My Son's, who is soon to be 21 years old. It's the smallest room in the house, maybe 9' X 11' and has a single bed, a lazy boy recliner, cest of drawers, and an entertainment center.

These were the clothes laying on the floor. I made them my desktop. I believe he said I was an idiot. :laugh:

There was a small pair of girl's hot pants and a top with spaghetti straps. I told him I don't really want to know. Not that there's anything wrong with that.



I think I counted 10 loads, it took him two days.
