    Hey guys,

    I've found an amazing Active World Time wallpaper for the desktop that automatically updates the time and daylight/evening but I've only found it in blue. Does anyone know if there is a black version?

    Also, are there any black themes for XP that go with the Thinkpad?

    Thanks!

    I don't think I have seen anything like that but check out this thread for a black themed Thinkpad wallpaper

    You can use any map wallpaper, but you'll have to adjust the position of the cities manually (just edit the coordinates in the Javascript file). You'll probably have to change the daylight image too...

    Actually, I made the black map, The Fire Snake pointed, to use it with that active map wallpaper program. Unfortunately it doesn't work with Vista x64. :-(

    @ZaZ
    Grab it here.

    I actually like my own wallpaper. I just though perhaps someone else might like it.
