Here's A brain teaser for you...

October 23, 2002 1:50 AM from

My wife is looking for a very specific kind of theme/skin/wallpaper/icon combo, and we have been searching the net for months trying to find something suitable. She wants a wallpaper/theme that is of the inside of a room, a pretty room,not exactly a photograph, almost...Painted(?), or Cartoonish(?) without looking like a little kids drawing out of his younger comics. She wants the wall paper to be a pic of a room so that she can arrange her desktop icons in such a way that it would be like redecorating a room of a house; (i.e. if her "my Computer" icon is a dining room table, and the wallpaper/theme is of a dining room then she could place the Table (my computer)wherever she wanted, and arrange the other "furniture" (icons) the way she wants them. You guys have something kind of close in your desktop X archive, but thats not what we are after. If any of you can help me out, or steer me the right direction, i would be grateful.

Couple suggestions: Remove the icons from the desktop, cross your fingers that someone knows of such a theme, or learn how to make one. DesktopX is not hard with a little time messing around with it.

Talisman has several 'room' type themes, and it can run over explorer if you prefer not to replace you shell.
