Couple of things about this theme, you need to lock down or group objects together so they stay together, like I can grab the icons in the weather object and move them around. I can move the dots on the wallpaper around, etc. About those dots too, I had no idea they were buttons until I clicked on them like 100 times. The theme is not very easy to use, the system meter is illegible, I don't know what bar does what, the buttons aren't labeled, so it makes it guess work. I do like how you did the mouseovers on the media player tho, if you could do something like that throughout the theme, it would make it a whole lot easier to use, yet still keep that minimalistic look. It's a good theme, it does have promise, just gotta work on all the fine details now. I'll be watching for the next update...

thankyou both for commenting, to Hus, things are labeled with mouseover...if you hold the cursor on buttons, bars and the like you will see a pop up that will tell you what that particular object is for. i understand what you are saying about it being hard to navigate though. i'm working on adding little animations that will pop-up in the corner on mouseover. as for the system meter, i myself have been thinking about it and have changed them to the light beige color at the top of the screen. they now stand out a lot better against the forest green color of the bubbles. i've also went and locked most things down, leaving the bubbles themselves flotaing so that users can move them to where ever they like.
thankyou again for commenting and leaving some constructive critisms. they help me in improving the overall theme and allow me to put out the best i can offer.

I really like this theme. I look forward to the fine tuning. On another note, I'm new to DesktopX, I'm having some problems getting the current weather summury for my city, is this not functional yet, or am I doing something wrong? The Thermometer seems to be stuck at 63 degree's and Thunder showers all week. Anyway, keep up the good work.

glad you're all liking it. the final release should be available soon enough.
to nocool: first make sure you are connected to the net. if you are and things still don't seem to work, try right clicking on the right button in the bubble to see if the script is enabled. beyond this, i don't know why it wouldn't be working. hope it helps.
also as a sidenote: if you left-click on the right button, you'll have a popup window appear where you can enter in your location.
