Thanks to everyone who's up for this! I've been trying the older, original themes on the apps I have, and WB seems to work o.k., icons work, what there are of them, haven't tried the cursor, as it's several versions ago. DLed Desktop X but don't think I'll even run it as I'm not sure if it'll play nice. WinAmp rocks! Using Wallpaper, WinAmp, icons, and alternating WBs with Battlefield and its walls, Sport Nou cursor does an admirable and somewhat fun job also...recolored it just a tad to try and match HE wall #1.
Would love to see the original Pixtudio theme shaken out and dusted off, as well as Universe Metal, and a number of the other, more extensive originals. They're what pulled me in at first, c.2001-2002.
Thanks, neophil. It'll happen, it'll happen. Edit feature seems to go on and off now and then as a matter of course, just like our rural power around here. Gotta roll with it.
Snowman, I'm speechless(almost...) with gratitude.
Mike's comment, #16, is very to=the-point. Lots of those apps I used to use aren't around or used now: Hoverdesk, etc.
The original DX looks so tempting I might just try to run it anyways to see if it works...
