Why don't one of you guys create a 'Say No To XP' wallpaper or something to that effect. And upload that wallpaper

That could be hell funny, i dont think i will use it, but anyway... maybe i should made an 'No to XP' in version metallic, aqua, anti, gray, and all the others variants that are around here.

BoXXi wipes tears of laughter from his eyes and continues.......
 I made an XP wall in about seven minutes flat, and some people thought it was a serious attempt! Is my art generally that bad?

For the life of me, does anyone else feel like they're out of touch with the general user? I can't figure out why people like these XP skins/wallpapers/themes so much.

It's even worse than the Aqua look.

You want to know what's really funny? Lots of people hate the new look who have the actual beta of Windows XP.

count me as one who 'doesn't get it'...

I never liked the new XP look... it's like a toy interface - way too cutsie for me. Like the rubber duckey thing in WinME...

the most irritating part is seeing all the walls with the windows logo - especially the walls that are Just the windows logo.

it's a mystery to me

ROTFL!

Just noticed this thread. I thought I was the only one gagging and choking over the XP "style"!
(And I use the term 'style' loosely. Even the "Whistler" look left a better taste in my mouth...)

I think you guys are being too sarcastic on this XP thing and this is not fair.

I made a search on the site and just could find 116 XP files ( once again, I said ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTEEN XP files), with accountables updates.

Not that much huh?
For sure I believe there is room to feet a couple of dozen more.

There are some sections that I couldn't find one single XP skin, *almost crying* CoolPlayer, ColorPad, KewlPad and LiteStep.

So what are you XP skinners are waiting for? Go for it and be wellcome to the hall of fame!
*maybe is not a good idea...those apps are not that populars on ddls* =Þ

Jafo: You could make a full transparent XP Lite Step theme, just showing the XP logo, what do you think?

I'm thinking about making a dozen of XP new threads, saying nothing, just using the XP logo on them.
Should I became popular with that?

Hmm, while we're at it, we need an XP site skin as well. Now, we shouldn't be putting the average Joe who likes XP down like this. It's just a case of the grass is always greener on the other side of the fence. They just want XP to look fresh and'll probably drop it when it actually comes out.

Now real skinning is just a step too far for these folks.

Renato: you've got too much time on your hands if you're counting them!
Maybe you should go back to work on your new XP-Ultra CoolPlayer, ColorPad, KewlPad and LiteStep suite...

Jafo wipes tears from eyes.....
Sorry, BoXXi.... that one slipped through...

Renato, I already did a transparent LiteSTEP XP theme. The trouble is, being transparent, you can't see the shortcuts or the popups, and therefore they can't be clicked on, either. The result is.....it looks exactly like an XP wall. How's THAT for porting an OS!!!!...

Rolf...
You will then have to rename those proggies...

Elwin...I have a virus checker that decided it didn't like the installer file for Sonique and downloaded it to 'delete', not to 'recycle'...was damn annoying. Even disabling the checker and then downloading it didn't help..as soon as I re-enabled, the checker deleted the file... so I don't use Sonique any more...

I wonder what it thinks of all things 'XP'....

Jafo: Lucky You!
Elwin wonders if he can train his virus checker such a nifty trick?
 Elwin wanders off looking for treats for the recyle bin - hmmm... 116 of them over here...

TomCruise leers at this person called Jafo and ponders filing a massive multi-million dollar lawsuit against him for slander.

Tom: don't make me get a restraining order to keep you away from Paul. He's mine... NOT YOURS! One other thing, tell Jeff Stryker to stop calling here. You don't live here anymore.

Paul: call me.
