    Hey guys. I'm looking at the Royal Inspirat SE linked on the OP http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/14893344/

    I'm having a hell of a time with it. I've got the theme installed, but can't seem to figure out how to get the icons(back,foward button, etc) installed. Also does anyone have any clue what awesome taskbar mod and desktop icons the creator used? There seems to be an entire lack of information on it.

    You need Y's Toolbar to install the icons. As for what he's using in the preview, he has a tendency to put a lot of stuff on there that looks cool, and fits with the theme, but doesn't actually exist.

    Son of a bitch. Well, thanks for the Y's toolbar tip though, it worked!

    The icons seem real enough. If anyone knows what they are and can give me a heads up that'd be great.

    I dug through the op but couldn't find anything about desktop changers.

    I was pointed towards wallpaperchanger.de, but I need something a little different. Two different things, actually:

    1. I run a desktop with XP that is always on. I'd like something that will change my desktop at a very specific time, so I can set it to change at 3am and get the "new desktop every day" effect with no hassles.

    2. I'm looking into a laptop, and would like a nice standard "turn on the computer, change the wallpaper" program. However, it'll be running Vista, so I need something that will play nice with that.

    I just paused VLC and took that shot from a scene in Jarhead. It looks great on my new HP w19b 1440*900 widescreen 19" TFT ^_^

    I'd like to start using IconPhile but the site seems to be down.

    I'm so boring. I finally got brave and decided to use the uxpatcher. This is about as much system resources as I'm willing to commit to pretty.

    I recently reformatted my laptop and deleted/tweaked everything I could figure out. I'm really happy because it boots in just under a minute and purrs like a kitten.

    The icons themselves are Litho System with all the extras (Iconfactory has a whole bunch of awesome icon sets, not only Litho). I use Candybar to change my app and system icons, and I use Pixadex to keep track of all the icons I have. Together the programs are $32, totally worth it.

    Beryl got like twice as cool when I wasn't looking. I took a break from it for a while while ATI's Linux drivers were busy sucking and came back now that there are open source drivers for my card.

    I wish I had a movie clip instead of a screenshot to post. Note that I can see stuff on the far side of the cube, because it's transparent. I'm seeing the back of programs. Madness!

    Also, there's a ton of new effects and stuff. I can light windows on fire. Unfortunately it's impossible to take a screenshot of this for some reason.

    Now I just need to figure out how to get anti-aliasing to work. Does anyone here know? I'm using the "radeon" driver, not "fglrx".
