Here is a new configuration I came up with. Jorge, I might be able to get you some new users with this one. I'll keep my fingers crossed.

I've shown it to a few family members and the first thing out of their mouths was, can you put this on my computer!!

P.S. For those of you that have the capability, it's available in the 1080p setting. Not sure, but it's possible that it might work for older computers on the 1080p setting because of the recording format.

Hey, very nice, Windy, you outdid yourself! :D

I might even highlight that video in the Themes page of the Winstep web site, if that is ok with you?

Where did you get that wallpaper from? Do you have the URL?

No problem! Sure you can use it. :D I'm glad you like it. Originally it took me quite a while to find the widescreen version. I was beginning to think maybe there wasn't one. Just when I was about to give up I decided to try one more time and I found it.

Here's the link to the widescreen (1920x1080) version of the wallpaper. http://hdw.eweb4.com/search/planet+1920x1080/#2 This could possibly change as more image links are added so I'm going to include the following link that appears after the image on that page is clicked. There should be numerous instances of the image. http://hdw.eweb4.com/out/590546.html

Here's the link to the 1400X1050 version. http://onlyhdwallpapers.com/high-defini ... per-259602

Cool Jorge! I see that you posted it on the Winstep Themes page. I feel greatly honored to have my configuration posted for your Highlighted Video.

It's like getting admitted to the Hall of Fame!! :D

Told you I would get you one. :D Jorge, one of my friends just ordered Xtreme after seeing my configuration and wants me to set it up the same way which I'm about to do right now.

Another one might be on the way in the next few days but not quite sure yet.

Due to popular demand, I'll post info on the Animated Icons and the themes I used.

The Animated Icons can be DL from the Winstep Themes page. http://www.winstep.net/themes.asp The ones I put in bold are in the Animated Icon Pack and Animated Nexus Dock Control Icons on the Themes page.

Animated Icons

Abstract 3, Animated Folder arrows, Animated Folder, Animated Icon Internet explorer, External Hard Drive, Firefox big fire 1, Google chrome 1, nexus-red-gold, Opera, Outlook, Pc Lights, Spying Camera, strange, t3, Thunderbird HD, Yahoo! True purple color.

To get to the ones not in bold, either click on the links that read Spippy or HERE on the Themes page in the Animated Icons section. Once there, you should come across the various Animated Icons I used and much more as you navigate through the several pages of cool stuff.

Themes/Docks/Workshelf

Bluelights Dock is on the Themes page just above the Animated Icons section.

Context Menu=Atmospherica theme, which is set up via NextSTART.

Workshelf=Serenity theme. http://www.skinbase.org/Skins/WinstepFullPak/137?page=2

USE THIS TO LINK DIRECTLY TO THE SERENITY THEME. http://www.skinbase.org/art/10317/serenity

CPU and RAM meters=K-TEK 4D theme.

Recycler/Trashcan on my configuration=WinstepSamples theme.
NOTE: COOL FEATURE THAT I REALLY LIKE; WHEN SOMETHING IS IN THE RECYCLE BIN THE LID RAISES UP SHOWING A BIT OF TRASH. Jorge, did you come up with that one?

Weather Module=Electrified theme. http://www.skinbase.org/Skins/WinstepFullPak/137?page=1

USE THIS TO LINK DIRECTLY TO THE ELECTRIFIED THEME. http://www.skinbase.org/art/54908/electrified

Electrified and Serenity themes have to be DL and added.

Hello again Winstep Xtreme users and soon-to-be users, I have uploaded a continuation video on YouTube that highlights a few features that were not included in my first video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kr8UPacC ... e=youtu.be

It's entitled Winstep Xtreme-Planet Background Continued.

To allow your configuration to work like it is the video, use the pertinent settings and themes I posted above. For the Context Menu to stay open as in the video, do as follows:

Open NextSTART--> Hotspots tab--> click on the folder in the left column that you have already created or are creating. Make sure it is checked --> Edit --> Next --> Next --> At the bottom, (What should NextSTART do...) change the pulldown menu to Keep all menus open --> Finish.

I've added a new third-party clock to the Windows Task bar, and the program used to open the pictures is also a third-party program. That's the beauty of Winstep Xtreme. It allows you in most cases to customize to your hearts content.

Just kidding. I bet I'm the only one who will *ever* notice that. :wink:

Hopefully it will spark more interest in the program. :lol: I pulled out the big guns, Barbara Eden and Marilyn Monroe. Two of the best! Nothing like eye candy to draw attention to a product. Just about every ad uses eye candy, so it must help. :D

I'm sure the ladies will also appreciate the artistic nature of those photos. :)

no the women will notice the boobs first. guys will notice a new toy first then the boobs. :lol: :lol: :lol:

windy a bit of advice use music with your videos. when we make vidos of our desktop to show it off we always use some song. otherwise the latest video is great.

I took your advice and tried to do it via the site, but couldn't because they didn't have the songs I wanted to use. I would have to add the music using my computer which would then be creating 2 more "new" videos that I would have to upload.

FYI, the program used to view the images in the video is called Irfanview. http://download.cnet.com/IrfanView/3000 ... ag=mncol;1 It's an excellent program that is very customizable as Winstep Xtreme is. Maybe that's why they work so well together.

The clocks are as follows: Timeleft, which is the one on the Desktop http://download.cnet.com/TimeLeft/3000- ... ag=mncol;1

And last but certainly not the least, Stoic Joker's T-Clock (Win7 compatible) which is the one on the Taskbar which has to be used with the Windows Taskbar. http://www.stoicjoker.com/tclock/

i recommend bb flashback. q up the music you want, start your recording, and then start you music. very easy to upload to youtube once done.
