I can't remember where I got the desktop i'll email it to you I guess. The harddrive icon I think is from one of globox's sets which I modded somewhat.

I'll tell ya what's even cooler...

The text that shows drive space or folder contents info... or even individual file info used to be a set blue. Well, it happened that this default blue was too close to the window background pattern I use and was virtually invisible. So what's cool? SS 2.0.x allows you to change even this obscure text color.
Way to go, Jason!
It's the little things like this that make great things even greater (like when icon artists include an open/drop state).

My 2�.

To dislike Sinatra is a sign of highly questionable taste. To dislike the Beatles is a serious character flaw.
