10.01.10 – About Time

without comments

Been awhile since I did some desktop stuff.

Wallpaper is a mix between this and this.
Visual Style: Soft7 1.8 for Windows 7
Icons: Vichy

Display board area powered by Rainmeter, displays text from a txt file. It’s meant to be a ToDo list of sorts (only displays one task at a time, I think it’ll help keep me focused and actually get things done). I plan to somehow have it link up with RememberTheMilk.

Foobar: fooLars2 Mod

with 5 comments

Here’s something I’ve been working on…

using base fooLars2 by lassekongo83 .

primary mods:
- stop after current button
- added playlist switcher and graphical browser
- added “mini-mode”

minor custom tweaks:
- last played works with default foobar2000 0.9.5 statistics
- album search method
- grouping method

still working on it, final version will probably be featured in my next desktop.

VS: Kemikal – lassekongo83
Wall: Guild Wars – somewhere in Arbor Bay (screenshot by me)
Winamp: Ebonite by WinstonGFX
MirandaIM: HUD Port by chaodam and GoneDark for ieview (slight mod by me) note: currently miranda site down, cannot retrieve link.
Rainlendar 2.0: aerial RL by danillooc
Icons: Guild Wars Dock Icon by aphaits and Chakram by apathae

Icons are Guild Wars, Music (folder), My Computer and Firefox (from left to right). I finally got around to using GCalDaemon to sync my Rainlendar and Google Calendar. I also have my wallpaper scheduled to automatically change when it’s day (I set it to right after I wake up) and when it’s dark. Check the day shot here (yea, I spoofed it just for the shot).

Nothing particularly special again, except Foobar. Posting it mainly for archiving purposes.

Nothing much to see here. I actually only changed miranda and the wallpaper since the last time. Also, I seem to have uploaded the screenshots but never posted it until now.

VS: SlanXP Edition 3 by lassekongo83
Wall: Futura – Space by PaulEnsane
Winamp: Big Bento (default with latest versions of winamp)
MirandaIM: HUD Port by chaodam and GoneDark for ieview
Rainlendar 2.0: default shadow skin

Again, I’m also running two other useful apps (that are not shown):
1. Launchy 2.0 , makes things a lot easier.
2. DesktopCoral , to allow my winamp to be visible at all times.

Two shots this time, the first shows an attempt at switching to foobar and miranda:

However school work got too heavy and I never completed the endeavor, so here’s what it’s been since then:

VS: SlanXP Edition 3 by lassekongo83
Wall: 1st – Request by chiwou 2nd – Great Wolf Shrine, Far Shiverpeaks (personal screenshot)
Foobar: Foo Slan3 by lassekongo83 (mod by me)
Winamp: Big Bento (default with latest versions of winamp)
MirandaIM: Mire v2 by asuraci (mod by me) and GoneDark for ieview
Rainlendar 2.0: default shadow skin

I’m also running two other useful apps (that are not shown):
1. Launchy 2.0 , an application launcher. hit alt+space to bring up the launch bar, then simply type in the first few letters of the program you want to launch. Also able to open files such as documents and music.
2. DesktopCoral , a tiny handy app that reserves space on your desktop such that maximized windows don’t cover this. I use this such that my winamp is always visible and in reach (at the top there).

VS: Default (Leopard OS X)
Wallpaper: one-a-day-#1 by colossus72
Adium: GAIA

Got a new macbook pro. Yep, beginning to use OSX. (I still love windows XP, but the macbook’s just blows every other laptop out of the water) As of now, Shape Shifter is not compatible with Leopard, so nothing much to do.

VS: SlanXP Edition 3 by ~lassekongo83
Wall: My ultimate by ~sliderPL
Winamp: Ebonite for Winamp by ~WinstonGFX
Icons: Guild Wars Dock Icon by =aphaits, Elements Icon Suite by ~pantoni
Rainlendar 2.0: default shadow skin

Heh, the real edition (as opposed to the Guild Wars Edition). Yea I actually had the GW Edition up for a few weeks, just never posted it, but decided that I should post it before I changed to a new setup.

Saw a friend’s Vista setup today and felt like giving it a shot. Finally moving away from Areao4! I like the VS + Winamp combination, but I think I may change the wallpaper. And I still kinda prefer Areao4.

And now it’s time to get some sleep.
