looks great, colors are nice and soothing, excellent recoloring as usual Shocks I've seen some work from you on devart, that would only take a minute or two...but no one there was complaining....its not how long something takes that makes it good or bad...and dont try to tell me PeteCee didnt do that much customizing...look at the throbber, the icons, the winamp, the titlebar text, the start button, the samurize etc....he did a lot and it looks nice, give him the props he deserves

99!?! Thanks again Max! :D Here's the wall: Bluntedsmurf: Ok no problem. Wall: provided in the above link. Icons: Simple by linestudio (Recoloured by me using IconXP). Throbber and custom titlebars: Edensoft's My Logo. Custom AIM Signon logo: Hacked with eXescope. Start button & Clock: TClock 2. Shell: Running windows classic mode (coloured using 3DCC). Winamp Skin: Lemon Factory Remake by Frosted Flames (best skin for colouring IMO) :D. Samurize is also on the desktop but it's kinda camouflaged into with the wall. I think thats it, thanks again lads. :D Update Yay featured!! :D thanks alot man, much appreciated. [B]Shocks: 10 minutes eh, you'll have to tell me your secret, cause colouring ALL of winamp alone... takes ALOT more than 10 minutes. And that was me working fast. 1 minute to paint winamp eh? Maybe.. if you just decide to paint the title bars only.

Great job!!! I LOVE themes like this . . . but I just do the StyleXP thing nowadays :-( , because all those utilities and apps tend to est system resources and slow things down horribly, especially when running 3D games, etc. It's only truly useful for aesthetic reasons - while they are beautiful - especially yours, they aren't too usable with certain applications, and wXP tends to really sllow down when running stuff like TClock, samurize, and other utilities. I have an Athlon XP2000+ with 512 mbs of RAM and a heavy duty Radeon card, and things really slow down now and then with these utilities.

Otherwise, great job, Petecee, and keep it up!!!

Wow, sweet !
But 99 .. no, i don't think so. It's the kick ass wall that makes this one so good, if you would have made the wall by yourself, then it would definetly be a 99. I don't really like that part where it divides the whole desktop into two pieces, but i guess that's just a matter of taste. Color matching is awesome .. but it makes the whole thingy a bit dull ..
Shocks: If you do this in an HOUR, i'm _really_ impressed, 'cause that's like close to impossible..And because it is, i wouldn't start yabbing like that, you selfcentered prick ;) Oh well, whatever..
I guess i'll try recoloring that winamp skin too, need a matching skin anyway :)
update: btw, found this: .. I think it's a bit better (but it's not a screenie..), but it's main purpose is to show of samurize or something ;) update2: Shocks: It really doesn't matter if you can do that in ˝minute or not, but anyway you give out a quite good image of yourself by saying that. First: You really can't do that in that time, and even if you could, do you have to start "bragging" around with it ? Second: PeteCee has made a nice screenie here, why the hell do you have to start punching him with those useless lines.. so useless... Do you want me to come and say to you that i could have done all the stuff you've done in a couple of minutes, even if you've worked on it for a week ? No, i don't think so .. maybe you also oughta think next time before posting such a comment .. Just my two cents.
