Looks nice coathanger. Could you attach your image instead so it doesn't stretch the screen?

Stardock just released a new app called IconX. It looks good, so I added it to the list.

Stardock IconX enhances your Windows desktop icons. Give them shadows, make them any size, have them zoom up on mouse-over and much more.

IconX has been available for a while. It comes with DesktopX which is free. Check out the IconX icons using DesktopX in my screenshot:

Another new app from Stardock:

ObjectDock Plus

Features:
  • supports multiple docks on the desktop of different styles (tabbed and untabbed)
  • supports Stardock fly-out menus
  • tabbed docks can have the system tray in them
  • taskbar items can be grouped together like the default Windows taskbar
The downside is that it isn't free. It's pretty cool, though.

I'm looking for some more sites with themes/visual styles to add to the list. Any help is appreciated.

Default Free Program?

Does anyone know of a SIMPLE free program that will allow you to edit Themes and Visual Styles? Basically I don't want to create themes, just play with the colours a bit.
