No customised Windows 7? No OcUK dark theme?

At me?

Using Windows 7 Blend.

Never liked the dark theme enough to warrant another Firefox on addon, got enough on to make it look presentable.

mrk · 26 Dec 2009 at 22:04

It looks different to mine

but still, no OcUK dark!

Fix'd

How different is it?

mrk · 26 Dec 2009 at 22:07

I see what you did there

It looks too plain!

Well how to jazz it up then?

I tend never to add custom themes etc in the first place. Usually just change the shade of Aero glass.

Gadgets, shades and OcUK themes

Dewotter · 26 Dec 2009 at 22:22

The biggest issue I find with gadgets is you never find ones that fit whatever theme you have and always look out of place

May get rainmeter back in if it makes you happy

mrk · 26 Dec 2009 at 22:23

You can right click gadgets to djust opacity, I found it works nicely at 20%

Know of any good themes other than Blend?

Used to have many gadgets going but in essence they are just clutter. Aiming for a minimalist desktop

MRK, since you seem to be a bit clued up on Win7, is there anyway you can add your own themes and have them in slide show?
