@Wicket20519 - Do you actually have that many wallpapers of girls?

@SiMoNsAyS - Where are our finalists!!!

Nice desktops everyone!

@Zxian, this month i'm not having much time (last one xpero helped me ) but will write the poll ASAP and will be open for a week as always

Actually, no.

The program I use just takes the regular pics I have, resizes/colors them, and then puts them together in a way that they form one big picture. I probably have less than 20 wallpapers of girls. Mainly Lindsay Lohan, though. You know, my wife?

I was really thrilled with the Air Force logo, though. That turned out better than I expected!

Ah... yeah, the AF wall is very nice.

Here's mine for november. Very simple , very lite!

i like that wallpaper! where can i find that? TNX

You can find those wallpapers here: http://www.winmatrix.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=4326

is there a particular program people would recommend for creating themes etc or should i create a themes file from scratch according to the MS web site. I would like to post my desktop each month but as of yet I havent created any nice themes so it ends up just as a change in wallpaper.

Sorry if you dont think it appropriate to filed this question here.

You can use Stylebuilder from TGTsoft.

@slimzky Please, give me link for your visual style!

i think that phkninja means creating themes not styles, a theme is a collection of a style, icons, and a wallpaper.

you can apply a visual style after you had patched the utheme.dll file
then with icon packager apply an icon package
then apply a wallpaper...

Lol you´re right, ah maybe he can now create he´s visual styles too

here is mine: Vista+Mac OSX Mix

Thanks, the problem i had was with creating the styles. Thought TGSoft created files like .theme and .style files that are software specific (that only their software understands).

I would like to create styles and theme file that can be read by windows once the uxtheme.dll is patched, but does not require third party software to be installed.

(Can change the icons in the dll's but would also find it handy to know which dll's i should modify rather than having to go each one individually.)

My desktop for this month

Nope - I use StyleBuilder myself (the theme from my laptop is rebuilt there), but I don't use StyleXP. Just a good ol' patched UXTheme.dll.

Also, shell32.dll is a good place to start looking, but be careful. If Windows doesn't reckognize the file after you've modified it, you won't be able to boot. I'd recommend getting a hold of a BartPE disk, or installing Recovery Console before messing with reshacking the system files.

I am reshacking files, adding them to a virtual pc running xp. Then when they work ill add the lot to an unattended install. Thanks all for the help

At the moment i'm using xp's default theme, hopefully i get time later to play around with my desktop.

Thanks Black for the info

Thanks spenxa, hope i see your desktop soon

I just want to show off my Curved sidebar!
Not only the sidebar is curved! (Warning nudity) [Click on image for screenshot]

Visual Style: Ashen
Wallpaper: Fresh Wallpaper

Pretty basic

@Black - I don't know if that pic is allowed...

You should at least put a not-work-safe warning on it. (There's more curved there than just the sidebar)

@spenxa - Nice setup. Simplistic.

Forgot all about that, I will change it right away
