Guess I'm just a noob... but how, or what app are you using, to get iTunes to look like that? I want TiSkin to work on iTunes too.

Grayware: that's not iTunes. It's the beta of VLC. Right, wingchuner?

Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast!

DJ.. If my memory serves me correctly, isn't that Silver Surfer image something that you created personally for yourself? Also, didn't you say that it would never be let out into the public?

now i'm really confused... PS can be a real talent i guess...

valdur: first of all, great desktops! I have some questions though:

Where did you get the robot-y wallpaper?
And also, what is the app that shows the album and rating in the corner? That one is really neat.

And one more.. what app did you use to show your system stats in the wallpaper?
I live my life one cool toy at a time.

Hey kertong get the robot wall here

the album art thing in the lower right is by an app called Synergy...get it at versiontracker....

the app i used for the system stats is called Aquamon...get it a versiontracker too...it's pretty cool..except that i wish there was an option to remove the dock icon and have it a pref pane instead so that it runs in the background....oh well...
