Hmm, I'm liking it but... Although I know how to make taskbar disappear but how do I keep the time? I'd need to know if I got to go for the bus!

OH! And I seem to be unable to add 'My Computer to the Launcher.

There are programs for docks called docklets. I'm assuming you're using RK Launcher.
There's a my computer docklet here. And you can find a digital clock docklet here.

I need some good AveDesk docklets. Im gonna start using it a lot more often. Anyone got any suggestions?

Also, do those desklets that iritegood posted work with RK Launcher?

The my computer docklet is made for RK launcher (I think) and the second one (digital clock) might work with RK launcher. I can't test it since I don't have rk launcher, but someone on another forum said it does.

Is a "My Computer" docklet really even needed for RK Launcher? All you have to do is drag a shortcut to My computer from the start menu to the dock.

Ok, I'll fill you in a bit.

Objectbar - A shareware program for making your Windows taskbar look like an OS X one.

ObjectBar Skins -

Windowblinds - A shareware program which provides more options that simple visual styles. More buggy IMO, but great for OS X emulation.

RKLauncher - A dock for Windows. Pretty self-explanatory. Free too.

AveDesk/AveTunes - Yahoo! Widget engine alternative. Popular among the customization community, essential in desktop customization of any kind. AveTunes is simply a skinnable iTunes widget for AveDesk.

Miranda IM - I personally cannot stand Miranda IM but everyone else seems to love it so there you go. Have fun spending a million hours trying to get it working

Styler Toolbar - Essential also, makes your toolbar look ALOT nicer and there are plenty of OS X skins out there. Incredibly easy to use. Loads of other options included besides toolbar skinning.

iTunes Multi Plugin - Plugin which makes iTunes 7 skinnable. Only iTunes 7, not 7.1 upwards. Most likely that the developer quit, only bother with it if you don't have a new iPod or Apple TV, iPhone etc.

Join aqua-soft.org and hollywoodgui.com too. They are both musts for inspiration and exclusive walls, themes, icons etc.

And shiro for the love of all that is holy put Cleartype on!
Decided to bump this up about 10+ pages. It's way back in there. Tons of good info. I can't stand WindowBlinds after it killed my computer once.

Whoa Twi, WB killed your compy? I'm kinda scared now o__o I use WindowBlinds, and I love my computer to much to risk it like that.

Well, here's my desktop... I finally decided to stop being so lazy and start getting some album art for my songs, even though I have so many different songs that it will take at least a few hours to get 'em all. Either way, here it is:

I kinda like that AveTunes skin. I'll keep looking, but I may just stick with that one. And I do have Rainlendar, but I put it in ninja mode. :3

I'm getting kinda bored with my icons. I searched in DA but to no avail. Anyone know where to get some really nice icon sets?

Wow Warcuid, amazing desktop with an even more amazing wallpaper.
If you want some good icons then I suggest you visit crystalXP.

I really recommend the Crystal Clear and Longhorn high PX iconsets since they have some really nice icons.

I posted recently but I like my new wallpaper (and the thread is getting very PC-y again

), so I'm putting a couple of new shots up.

I really dislike Leopard's transparent menu bar on lighter backgrounds. It looked OK on my space wall, but here it looks flakey. The new icon size is crisp though, I'm loving it - it's hard to tell how crisp the dictionary icon is in the shot (btw, dictionary.app has become the greatest thing ever in Leopard, with full Japanese, Japanese/English, and Japanese/synonyms dictionaries).

Wow, Leopard is very nice. I might switch to Leopard some time.
