Many people have asked me about the notepad app that I used in these two screenshots:

Well, I found a place where you can still download it http://www.hktk.com/soft/soft_edit/crankpad_1.html The site is in chinese (I think) but if you choose the first download link in the list, you will find it works.
CrankPad is a very cool notepad replacement that is transparent and can change the color of it's window. You can have it framed or unframed, change the font and the font color. Just right click the window for lots of options.
I have always enjoyed using this little application, and I'm sure many of you will too.
