Hye guys that WIN BLIND is really heavy on resources....even the ALIENWARE WIN BLINDS was really heavy on resources...as it took up a lot of system power....but i still prefer the WINDOWS BLINDS over the STYLE XP ......

cheers n e-peace....

looks great man.
actually all of stardocks products are great even the lesser know ones like windowfx and iconx.

Hey i use shell replacements instead of windowsblinds ...

 

[Biplav]

well as pointed out; windows blinds went heavy on my resources as well. but see we will have diff point of views on this=stardock lovers will definitly defend this
but i honestly think; from
my personal experiencs with various shells and theme replacements
i do think that nothing comes near to aston and talisman.
well very light on the resources'actually
they take even less ram then windows itself. and very good themes too.

Please give me the link for download.

Sorry, I cannot tell you that link. Because, this would be illegal. It's an internal beta release.
I prefer WindowBlinds Enhanced over any other Desktop enhacements. Have you ever used WindowBlinds Enhanced version? It is not at all system hungry.
In the screen shot the author Frogboy has used several things - WindowBlinds Beta 5, ObjectDock Plus, Rainlender, IconPackager, may have used a Bitnic and DesktopX also. If you use all of them as system startup item, then it must be a huge startup - no doubt about that.
I think the ss (Screen Shot) looks like Vista ss - isn't it?

Some shots of ObjectDock Plus 1.20 has been posted here :

DesktopX is a program that can apply theme on desktop. In 1998 Stardock announces Object Desktop for Windows. Amongst its core features would be a program that would change the look & feel of the Windows GUI (WindowBlinds) and a program that would extend the Windows desktop to support true objects (DesktopX).
In 1999 Teams up with developer Alberto Riccio to lead the project. DesktopX Whitepaper released.
It envisioned a program that would extend Windows to support "live objects" that could have scripts of any scripting language attached to them. Clocks, calendars, MP3 players, Factory monitoring, Stock tickers, system resource monitoring are the kinds of things one might want to have on the desktop. Things that don't make sense to have as a full blown application but are still useful.

All that eye candy stuff looks cool dude...

I think it is possible to make a screenie like this on Talisman...icons etc are needed but it'll be a hefty task...

I don't know about eye candy. Also don't know about Talisman. My favourite is ObjectDesktop, which has been used in the screen shot.
