Artist's Note

Wall: Creamy Green by Sticboy

Winamp: LemonFactoryRemake by Frosted Flames (recolored by me)

Win98, standard explorer shell, running Tclock 2, Xcap, PKTray, PKLauncher (recolored skin by me) Displayset for the color scheme, all colors pulled from the wall using 3DCC's color grabber.

Alot of the same, a little new as far as mods go. My Desktop context menu is horizontal this time around, quite an interesting way to have your menu work :)

AIM up and running in the shot. Collapsed the list to avoid name display of course, but obviously, when the list reaches it's limits, a scrollbar pops out, gives it a whole different look, but you get the idea :)

Recolored the Winamp skin as mentioned above, had quite a time with it. Debated with myself forever as to whether or not I should have removed the border or keep it, which ultimately, I kept it, although, I recolored it to a lighter green. Anyway, I decided to keep it because the skin just did not look right without some sort of border, nor did the PKLauncher skin as well. So, to late now, but either way, it works for me, and I love the look of it.

So, hope you like all that you see, despite the wall probably being well overused by now, but it's my first time around with it, and I've been dyeing to go green, so it was perfect, as most sticboy walls are :)

Nice job on this WinT, I like what you did with the winamp skin. Good matching, this whole colorscheme and wall have been done before... but not with this much hacking. GJ

^. I really have no clue what some things are. Itīs getting to much for me. Youīre really a lot steps above. Awesome thing again. And for sure the most usable thing iīve seen to date. Show this to someone who isnīt into customizing that much and heīll ask you if this is windows at all. Some of my friends asked what operating system you have. And i said 98. "THATīs not possible. Where are all the things from? Thatīs photoshopped..for sure!" haha... i just had to laugh. "He stepped up the game a lot". Yes you did. Inspiration and hero for all of us. Great work. AS ALWAYS! But youīll never manage to theme orange... cough. just by the way. I īve a new wallpaper... cough.. really usable.. cough...
