Show off your Alien Desktops...

My Alien Desktop with Custom monitoring

 

wow that looks awesome bro. nice touch with the alienware font.

 

Thx Bro ...Got to represent

 

haha true, btw what tools are you using to get those cool features.

 

Wow, coo! How did you do this?

 

Nothing too special here. Just few handpicked gadgets.

 

Hey man I like the looks of that weather gadget! Whats the name of it, I hate the standard one im currently using.
Thanks!

 

Oh, thanks! I forgot to give the gadget names:
- iStat battery
- iStat WiFi
- WeatherCenter

 

Here are my Alien desktops (technically 4)

 

For my setup ... I used Samurize.and.Tech GPU-z

 

Thanks a lot for the name of that weather gadget!

and to the guy with the 4 desktops: How did you do that???
thats AWESOME!

sorry if im a total noob lol, but this is a friendly place

 

@NuYoricanX, Thanks, will look into it.

@SumKallMeTIM, Well, technically it's .... Linux...Compiz Fusion. I doubt you can mimic it in Windows.
Have a look at this. Enjoy!

Here's while running the Armored Princess on one of the desktops in the outer space.

 

Ahh deskspace... I have it also

 

Can your deskspace turn into this?

 

Whoa! This and the previous link... looks pretty amazing!

 

Yes, those can give you a preview of what can be done in Linux. If only all the games could run there out of the box with no tweaking....Dreams.

 

why you had to bring linux into this

 

Yeah I wish you could run games on it. I knew Ubuntu had some cool visual styles... but damn... this beats down Windows7 and MacOSX hands down by FAR! I have to install this now...

Looking at my Win7 now looks almost like Win95... now look what you did...

 

Needs moar Alienware wallpaper and backgrounds

 

ROAR LINUX!!!

and I don't have any Alienware branding on my desk-space... it's already all over the machine... lit up in bright colors... ha.

 

Well, you will hardly ever need all the features, but the idea is to make your desktop more flexible and dynamic according to your one wishes. Don't need 4 desktops? - keep 1. Nobody is forcing you. After all it's called "EyeCandy" and this is what the thread is all about - one big show off.

 

I hate lensflares! It's so Photoshop 4.0...
Don't want to sound disrespectful but please be more creative.

Well, it has a space helmet in it. Maybe I should find an Alien.

 

What about the name of the Mac finder that you have ?, seems good looking to me, can you give me the name of this ?
Thanks

 

Cool. I would remove the option to "Reset on boot" the Total Upload and Total Download meters. Then you can see how much you use in a month, year, etc. It's interesting.

Also, what are you using to show the temps on Samurize? I know, it's not native for Samurize, but figured I might ask just in case it is.

I'll post mine later on. I doubt anyone wants to see my Eee PC desktop.

 

Some of these desktops are pretty sick.

 

No. He means the App, Office, Internet dock.

Edit:

My W7:


My Linux:

Because it always comes to save the day!


I would post my third one but can't.

 

ok here is mine sorry no gadgets or widgets. used to have samurized but i nevered really use my desktop so i uninstalled it to save resources.

 

All i have running is deskspace,objectdock, samurize and techgpuz for gpu readings
other temps are pulled from samurize with other plugins

 

That looks freaking awesome, what are you using to achieve that?

 

research engadget, it's basicly ripping windows 7

 

It's called Rainmeter.

It's got nothing to do with Windows 7. The skin that I'm using is a mimic of the Windows 7 *Phone* UI that's been shown off - Basically, showing you panels.

You can do a hell of a lot of customisation though with it, and it's very low impact.

 

yeah the phone that's what I meant
