Get vista skin xp




















Stardock offers an entire Object Desktop software package that lets you design and build your own desktop or install a complete design created by others. The day trial version doesn't come with the Vista-inspired theme preinstalled, but we found several impressive user-created themes at WinCustomize. The skins we tried did a great job on the window-frame transparencies, along with the start menu and taskbar designs.

However, you'll need to get a separate icon pack to get high-resolution icons. You can give Vista Transformation Pack 4. The free download adds transparent windows, updates the taskbar, and even installs a new clock.

The transparencies worked, but we found the see-through quality extended throughout the entire window body instead of just around the frames. Reading a Web page can be difficult if you can see text from the window below mixing with text in the active Web browser. Increasing opacity levels helped make window contents more readable but sort of defeats the purpose of installing the transformation pack in the first place.

Windows Vista will feature Windows Sidebar. The sidebar is a vertical panel located on one side of the screen and is designed to host desktop gadgets, which are pocket-sized applications such as clocks, picture frames, calculators, and RSS displays.

The sidebar application will also allow gadgets to float anywhere on the desktop. Right now you can drag your Windows XP system taskbar to the left or right side of the screen to create a poor man's sidebar, but it still won't give you any cool gadgets to run.

All three programs have a decent selection of desktop gadgets, including weather monitors, calendars, e-mail monitors, stock tickers, and even games such as sudoku. Desktop Sidebar and Google Desktop let you dock gadgets in the sidebar or pull them out to have them float on the desktop. Yahoo Widget Engine isn't a sidebar since all the widgets are free-floaters, but you can stack various widget applications to mimic a sidebar if you can't resist the need to force order upon your desktop.

Icons enlarge as you mouse over them in the docking bar. Apple's Mac OSX already offers widgets in its Dashboard application, and it also has a great-looking docking utility for programs and files.
