its not necessary to download the dock n clock........jz add-in watever u like drool.gif

and yupe icon_rolleyes.gif u can add new themes wif StyleXP but due to resource usage n shakehead.gif not a freeware tongue.gif i recommended u to try UXTheme Multi-Patcher.... icon_rolleyes.gif

or if it's too complicated for u, u can jz try out some package like Vista Inspirat Brico Pack, Gant 3 oCeAn n FlyakiteOSX 3.5 icon_rolleyes.gif

is Avedesk same with Samurize?

can someone please do comparison between those 2?... i dunno which to use >.<
*
slighty different, Samurize more to system monitoring and Avedesk more to shortcut icons & some desktop utilities but Avedesk offers some system monitoring as well but the skinning is limited to some creator only while Samurize offers great skinning config for you to create skin by yourself. smile.gif

for me I will try both. tongue.gif

*
=\ I can't find the link *sigh need to rewrite*

Right click anywhere on the desktop Arrange Icons by Unchecked the Lock Web Items on Desktop.

or

Right click on My Computer > Advanced > Performance > Settings > tick the Use Drop shadow for Icon labels on desktop.

har ? got problem you still use  sweat.gif  sweat.gif guess i'll pass that .. anyone else got any recommendation ? which 1 uses least memory ?

Yes, Im still using it since it doesn't bugging me a lot I can close it to fix my browser problem.*As it might be my system problem and doing desktop customize is always preparing for error, laugh.gif it's normal* And it's consuming low memory usage and smoother comparing to ObjectDock as my 2nd recommendation. Well, ObjectDock offers a lot of functions such as weather forecast, clock, start menu, system monitoring and etc. Or you can try RocketDock as well but RocketDock didn't have any Icon changing option for empty and full recycle bin.

haha.. dat's messed up dude.. seeing ur screenshot, i don't know if dat's the cleatype doings.  maybe it's something else. nway, just give it a try.u can download tweakUI to do that. google it k. tongue.gif

>cleartype font looks "cun" on ur desktop dude! get wat im sayin..  doh.gif
*
Sorry dude, It seem you are the one who don't get what is cleartype meaning tongue.gif . Cleartype is not a font. It seem something to do with the font anti-aliasing and contrast to make it more clear to be display, it still Tahoma/Arial after all.

Btw TweakUi doesn't have something to do with the cleartype thingy. I think he need to search for Cleartype tuner provided by Microsoft instead of TweakUi.

Go here if you are using IconPackager.

If PNG you need to convert it to .ICO then apply it one by one.

You'll need to do hacking with your explorer.exe

try Resedit.
