I was bored a school (some classes got cancelled)  - so I downloaded blackbox and started building bottom toolbar interface (has "mini" dock, system meters and Winamp controller):



I'll probably release this config soon - so if anyone is interested, let me know. ^^

Yeah BB4Win is port of the BlackBox Linux Window Manager for windows 95 and up. That includes XP and 7 aswell. There might be some incompatibilities, but I recommend downloading bbClean which a branch of BB4Win - I find it most cuztomizable and stable.

It's a shell replacement, meaning it will replace your Windows shell (explorer.exe), but you can just run it without installing for checking out, so no harm no foul.
You can get started by downloading latest bbClean: [link]

Ask me on Xfire tomarrow or on weekend and I'll hook you up with some must have themes and plug-ins.
It's pretty simple to cuztomize it to your likes. Themes are easy to create and there's already infinite of themes available on web: eg Toxicana or dA.

You might not like it, because it's purpose is to provide an lightweight (takes under 2MB or RAM usually) yet very functional user-interface. So no bells/whistles like in Win7 shell or on Gabriel's screeny.

Lol, kind of long reply.. but I'm a BB fan xD

I will try it tomorrow (it's late and I will go to bed soon)
Well, your theme reminds me a bit to my Ubuntu Linux with GNOME desktop

This Is my Ubuntu desktop while I'm starting UT2004 ^^



As you can see the splashscreen of the Linux version is transparent :P

QuoteThat's a lot of shorcuts on your desktop. Just wondering: how do you access them?
I click and drag them at the bottom menu bar. I just click them once to run them.

QuoteOh, btw, I noticed 2 FTP apps. You should try WinSCP.
Yeah. I use AceFTP and Filezilla. As for your recommendation, just might try it.

Raj is a guy! He just likes using a stalker toon.
