I went to my friends place and noticed that he has objectdock. So i downloaded it last night. Its been about 1 hour since i installed it and now i can say i have configured it perfectly as i like. This is my thrid configuration and i am going to stick with it. No more windows taskbar. I was avoiding such apps for so many years since they used to slow down my already slowish pc. But since i got more ram, everything seems to be better. I am doubtful if the upcomming windows vista will work on full graphics on my pc (because of its on the fly blurring), so i might as well enjoy xp to the max
My current setting has all my apps, startmenu, my computer, games and utilities on my top bar which is retractable. Then comes by right end center bar which covers all my taskbar items and the right end bottom bar has all my system tray apps thus giving me access at my finger tips and yet giving it a bit different look
The only problem is that the top bar takes up the position of my winshaded winamp window. I guess winamp will hence forth be off centered 
The taskbar also keeps a screenie of any window/popup if you want so its pretty good
I am running ObjectDock Plus 1.20.522u
Lets get a few themes and tinker around
Here are a few screenies Read the rest of this entry »
