That is a very nice improvement. I'm happy.

@jonathang: Nice. 8) And by the way, Use small icons on the taskbar rules!

And well, I think it's not common to have a clean desktop. Even my desktop used to be filled with a lot of stuff, it was possibly only about six months ago when I started to prefer cleaner desktop, and tidied it up.

Nobody knows.

Was it a natural chain of events, or did it happen on purpose? :twisted:

Also, there is no need to have shortcuts to steam applications on your desktop silly! :p

@ DarkParadox

That... is beautiful.

What os is that even... It almost looks like a skin for windows, but yet it also looks like some flavor of linux. 0.o

Whatever it its, I want it.

It's Windows 8.1 (update 1, latest) with a lot of work put into customizing it. For example, custom font rendering across the board (which gives it a OSX / Linux look), visual style for windows, wallpaper from my favorite artist, Sublime Text (with a theme), foobar2000 (with a theme), some taskbar customizations, launchy for program launching, dexpot for multi-desktops (with plugins, f.lux for my eyes, rainmeter for desktop decorations, another theme for Steam, and several programs to give a couple Linux features I missed.

I'm still working on making it look as good as possible. At the moment I'm trying to find a nicer looking rainmeter skin.


Tip: Best way to make windows look good is to find a nice wallpaper (not something with too much depth, if it's a real picture make sure there's lots of background blur), use small taskbar icons, and hide desktop icons or keep it perfectly clean.
