Desktopx or ?

westerho · May 12, 2005

Hi
I'm looking for a good program for completly changing the look of my desktop I've heard DesktopX is quite good for this but are there any better ones out there.
I want to be able to include windows for system info (ram usage,temps,hard drive free space) if anyone can recommend one could you say why it's good I don't mind paying up to £40 for this if it's worth it

Cheers for any suggestions

DesktopX is good but I use WindowsBlinds (just do Google) and its free.
Right now I'm using the Alienware theme which only comes on Alienware systems, but I got it on my custom made rig.

Here is what it looks like in little 640x640 (sorry that's the bigest size that I can upload)

Looks good Reddragon does window blinds allow you to put desktop screens in place like this

I think the idea of being able to monitor everything from the desktop is great
I've found a site http://www.wincustomize.com/ which looks pretty good
Can you combine windows blinds and desktopx?

Yes you can either choose theme or fully customize it yourself

StyleXp is one i like alot more then windowblinds.. just my opinion though

Window Blinds is free, but uses lots 'o resources, and annoying text bubbles come up once in a while.

Style XP costs money.

Free, no extra resources.
