Thanks in advance.

Not sure where I got it from, it's called d-industries though...

Might have been Mandolux.com, if not that then for sure pixelgirlpresents.

Sorry I can't help you out there too much...

haven't posted a screenshot in a long while.

nothing that exciting going on, i've been in a very minimalistic [and not busy background] mood lately. default panther desktop picture that has been colored into 5 different colors, on a 5 minute rotation.

That's a good idea with the desktop pic rotation. I remember micro$oft released a nice set of a tree in four seasons to use on rotation - anyway else know of similar sets of pics suitable for rotation?

target - 1.38 mb

most of the ones i have are just color variations
imo, the seasons one should not be on random. it animated the seasons changing.

Wallpaper from God knows where...
Icons is Somatic by David Lanham.
Theme is Spotlight - modded by DigitalJames - can't remember the original author right now.

iTunes is running alongside Adium and a few other apps. QuickSilver in the background.

Zimph, it is most certainly a desktop that comes bundled with the Latium GuiKit, although the color looks to be modded from green to blue. Very nice mod, I must say.. would you mind sharing the desktop itself, haley?

Nice. Couple of questions. Where did you get the iPod icon? In the top right and bottom left, there are little silver tabs, what are they? And how did you mod the sound in the menu bar. That's pretty sharp.

The sound in the menu bar is like that by default in cathode.

The iPod icon is from the same set that hard drive and some folder, You can find them here...
Darkness icons

I guess the silver tabs You're talking about the konfab widgets, some are originals, some are moded by me to adapt to each other and to current UI... Send me a mail if You're interested by one of them, Acrimonator at Spymac dot com...

The volume slider is effectively changed by Cathode Beta

Two questions:

Where did you get that uptime monitoring widget from? I can't seem to find it on konfabulator.com.

How did you edit those widgets to change their colors and such?

[As you can see, I have no clue on anything that has to do with widgets...]

Thanks

The messeage view style is Eclipse, I replaced the message background image with a part of Desktop picture (Lumem Magnetized mind) to fit that...

The MiniWeather.widget, UpTimeRecord.widget (can't remember wher I got It) and Waste Basket.widget were modified to fit original's, MiniDigitalClock.widget and MiniCPU.widget, Onyx style.
To mod a widget, Ctrl-clic on the To-modify.widget... Then from contextual menu > show package content...
Till there Contents > Resources... Then You'll have to modify the graphic files to your leisure...

If someone want any of those 3 widgets, mail me @ Acrimonator at spymac dot com
