There are a lot of custom themes out there that you can apply once you patch the appropriate files. Here's a screenshot of my setup:







love your desktop mate.
Thanks! It's just the clearscreen sharp theme from DeviantArt and a heavilly customized version of the Omnimo rainmeter theme

Oh, okay, so I get it now. The shine on the windows while on aero peak and the shine on the taskbar are connected. Thanks! I've managed to fix it. By the way, Do you know the exact size of the shine on the stream and the size for the taskbar?

The shine size is shine 802x604 I posted it up a few posts. Do you want the size of the taskbar or the size of the shine on the taskbar? If it's the size of the shine I do not know, looking at Windows Style Builder it looks like it will be close to 802x151 you may have to play with that size to get it right.
I put a image where that shine is that with Windows style builder to show you what that image does it basically just sets in one spot as you can see I lined up a bunch of Windows and you can see the image in the frame if you move a window that image does not go with the window you will see what's on the left or the right of the image, if I have confused you let me know.

Okay, I understand, I'll just play with it until I get the right size. Thanks for all the help!
