Inspirational Desktop: #2

Posted in Inspiration | 1 comment

We like to help people with their desktop customization by providing many resources such as HD wallpapers, icons, fonts, etc. It is always great to see what people can accomplish when you provide them with all these resources. That is why we have decided to start showcasing some of these desktop customizations for your inspiration. Here we have a desktop feature called “optimum” which was created by flickr user nitzua. This desktop has an incredible amount of customization that is all pixel-perfect.

How to make your desktop look like this:

• Operating system – windows xp sp2

• Visual style – deep mod of area o4 by heylove

• Litestep – me, built on top of this theme

• Wallpaper – from iamfreeman’s ‘black background’ set, I brightened it a little

• Icons – blank

• Firefox – custom theme, userchrome.css, & start page

• Mirc – running nnscript, theme by me

• Resource hacks – explorer menu bar, notepad

• Miranda – clist_classic, srmm_mite, icons by me

• Zeed image viewer – image from this post over at stax&cane

• Other apps – y’z shadow, runboxxx

• Fonts – helvetica condensed, blank

• The widgets are all done with samurize. I have them each running as a separate instance so they can all be hidden/shown with a different hotkey. it’s actually surprisingly light.

We would love to feature more desktops. If you have a killer desktop customization please send us an email with a screenshot and explanation of how you were able to accomplish it.
