Moderators rridgely Posted August 6, 2006 Moderators Share Posted August 6, 2006 To all of those on xp that want the vista glass look here is little program to do it: http://www.chime.tv/products/glass2k.shtml Its a little program that dosent even require an install. Just run it and then press ctrl+shift and number key to set the amount of tranparency. Here is a screen shot from my pc Not something I would run all the time but pretty cool Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators rridgely Posted August 6, 2006 Author Moderators Share Posted August 6, 2006 new avatar, i like it! Thanks. EDIT: why wouldnt you run this all the time? its pretty sweet to me. I guess I don't really worry about what my desktop looks like. I just want it to be organized the way I want and thats it. Plus trying to type on something thats transparent is kind of hard, I would lose track of what I wrote. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, just close the program and then the window thats transparent. If you open the window back up its no longer transparent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldmannen Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I think that it is pretty annoying and less user-friendly. Wonder if it is eats resources too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capman Posted August 6, 2006 Share Posted August 6, 2006 I guess I don't really worry about what my desktop looks like. I just want it to be organized the way I want and thats it. That is exactly how I am, I like to have a nice wallpaper, but that is about it, I don't spend long enough looking at my desktop to worry about anything else.

It is using 4700k.(very little) I guess if you like the vista look this will give it to you with the right theme. Like I said before its cool but not something I personally would run all the time.

Moderators Andavari Posted August 6, 2006 Moderators Share Posted August 6, 2006 I think that it is pretty annoying and less user-friendly. I have to agree. When I used to use Winamp 5 I noticed it also has that tranparency option in it and I think I used it all of about 5-10 seconds before disabling it.
