Skinzine Vol 2 - I can't believe is NOT a Mac!

`manicho:iconmanicho: reports, July 15, 2007

Skinzine

Volume 2: I can't believe is NOT a Mac!



Welcome to SKINZINE! The deviantART Skins & Themes Weekly magazine, featuring the most impressive works on the S&T galleries.

In this second issue, I've selected a few packaged themes to recreate the look and feel of the OS X interface into the good-ol' Windows XP. Many of these themes should work fine under Windows Vista. Be sure to check 'em out!

There are hundreds of skins and packaged themes waiting for you at the Skins & Themes Gallery. Take a browse and check out the latest submissions, truly filled with amazing themes.

Let's cook a screenshot.

Ingredients:


Let's get started. You might need several more apps and resources, but the basic stuff to get in the deskmod trend is:

- 1 WindowBlinds [link]
- Some Themes [link]
- Sense of humor [link]
- Patience [link]
- Inspiration [insert your desired link here: X]

Preparation:


Grab a packed theme. Some of the best I've seen around are listed in the next feature:



Wanna make your own theme? Check this full tutorial on video by *mrrste


Extras:


After applying a theme, you might need some extras to get a better result. My personal recomendations are:

- Wallpapers


Shameless self-promotion:


- Icons


The Final Result


Check out the next screenshots. All of them are Windows XP. If you take a close look, you might find just a few different pixels than the OS X screenies, on other cases, you will be amazed of how beautiful

your desktop can be! Some of them might give you a hand if you ask nicely ;)



Usefull Links


If you want to know more about how you can get these kind of desktop setups, be sure to visit these places:

- Aqua-Soft [link]
- Hollywoodgui community [link]

The End


If you want to suggest some topics, reviews or skin features for the next issues, please send me a note or contact me via email.

Thanks for reading, linking, faving, humping.

I hope you liked this selection. See you the next week!

But still the clever north wind is not satisfied. It speaks to me of towns yet to be visited, friends in need yet to be discovered, battles yet to be fought...
