Artist's Note

My current desktop is inspired heavily by beaker and his current desktop theme (http://www.virtualplastic.org/html/cur_desk/cur_bea.html). I liked the fact that he was able to gain a great custom look with very few 3rd party applications.

Most of the changes for this update have been with cursors and icons. I decided to move to Viao icons and cursors because they blended better with the overall color scheme.

Here is a breakdown of what is going on:
============
Skinz Apps:
============
* TClock (Clock and Start Menu): Nijikon Fetchi [http://www.customize.org/details/6906]
* Eppie (Buttons)
* Registry Hack (Explorer Background): Explorer Background image by Beaker, via snufflupagus, via precurser.
* Icon Desk (Transparancy for desktop icons)

============
Task Bars:
============
* Quick Start
* Desktop
* My Computer (custom)
* Favorites

============
Icons:
============
* Desktop Icons: Viao by Masatoshi Ueji (M's Factory) (http://www.venus.dti.ne.jp/~mueji/desktop/di/di_e.htm)
* Favorites Icons: Glyphs by Scrow (http://www.virtualplastic.net/scrow/)
* Cursors: Vaio by unknown

============
Background:
============
* Nijikon Fetchi as modified by Dangeruss (http://www.dangeruss-industries.com/)

============
Apps Running:
============
Sonique with E-Razor NF skin (http://www.deviantart.com/deviation.php?id=48299) listening to SomaFM's Groove Salad (http://www.somafm.com)
Internet Explorer 5.5

If you like Viao icons and what not, you can find a lot of viao stuff at this URL: http://members.nbci.com/christianetc/themes/vaio/vaio.html

wow! lots of info.. I like that. The Desktop looks like a bastardized version of DeadDreamers. I mean, blue is good and all, but, bleh.
