Friday, January 8, 2010 by Island Dog | Discussion: OS Customization

The first TWiS of 2010 is here and it is great to be back!  2010 is going to be an exciting year with the launch of the new WinCustomize just around the corner, and all the other cool stuff we have lined up for this year.

So lets check out this weeks picks!


Sixus by Vampothika

This theme for CursorFX has some slick animations, and an awesome design.

Dingy by CarGuy1

A really nice and relaxing animated wallpaper for your desktop.  Great work!

Huevos icons by Pepua

These icons are awesome and very creative.  Grab them today!

WindMill by DisturbedComputer

Just a beautifully captured image.  Fantastic!

xRaptor by LightStar

This is just one of those WindowBlinds skins that doesn’t need an explanation.  Just download it, you won’t regret it.
Red n Chrome by don5318

Don5318 always comes through with some sweet Xion skins, and the latest is no disappointment.

Great pics but....I think someone needs to let Pepua know that he should be getting permission from the artists he "borrows" images from and include the permission in his work.  Five of those images are direct rips from the GUI Championship IP package, All My Life, which he sites he "based" this package on.  I think someone should educate him on the difference between "basing" a skin on someone else's work and simply altering someone else's work.

Congrats to all...
