Bored at the moment so I decided to play around with the look of my desktop, ending up with just removing the desktop icons Very Happy

Don't you find it hard to concentrate on something with your eyes against that desktop?

@rizzix, I like it, nice and easy on the eyes, with little bits of eye candy in the right spots.

Okay, its not wonderful, its bland, and the start menu is a mess ... and its not my desktop. Just a school workstation, I use them lot since I still don't have a home internet connection. I want my internet connection at home Sad

If by "sick" you mean "makes me sick". How can you stand all that blue?! I think I get motion sickness from just looking at it Wink

I have to agree. The shade of blue and gradients used don't really tickle me.

Yeah, it's vista, but meh. More stable than XP on this computer. XP liked to lockup for 10~20 seconds every 2 hours doing nothing, on a fresh format as well.

I'm blue green colorblind, so I haven't really noticed an issue. Changing the desktop background from that theme's default does look way better though.

EDIT: My desktop.
