Probably a shapshifter theme, but I don't use shapshifter so I wouldn't really know for sure.

Check out a program called 'Synergy' it's available on Versiontracker.com it's what I use to do just that. Excellent program and worth the registration fee. Give it a try though, they let you use it for a while to demo it.

it would be from a icon catalouge i would imagine. i got an icon set from www.pixelgirlpresents.com so you might have to browse around a few sites to find either that one or ones you like.

With You Control iTunes you can have that on your desktop. In the Menu play around in the 'Overlay' menu, you can customize the window that pops up, the size, position, font etc...
Its a great app. It lets you controo iTunes and playlists from the menu bar as well. I love it!
edit : here's what it looks like

use Growl.
add Spark if you want to use keyboard shortcuts.
i use Synergy (it has a few more nice features), but the above are free.
