Windows Event Sounds

from WinCustomize Forums
Ok so I've got my desktop skinned, the Windowblinds, the cursors, the wallpapers, the icons, the logon, the bootskin, it all matches. Now I need some event sounds to go with them. Does anyone know a good site to find them?

If there ISN'T one, it might be nice to have wincustomize make a new section... wink wink

sometimes the best sound schemes are the ones you peice together yourself go to google and search for Invader Zim.. put the 'Doom' song as your windows start up sound.

maybe 'sounds' is a new forum? i could see that getting carried away, though. a lot of skinners put sounds into their windowblinds sets, like Xero.

I actually included some window event sounds in my Batman windowblind.

I don't like system sounds. They interfere with my groove. If i am listening to a song on the puter and I here a 'click' I loose all my grooveness. If you have games on your computer, they often have a lot of short sounds associated with them. You just have to find them and convert them to wav if they aren't already in it. Or if they are too long you can go to download.com and I am sure you will find a tool to cut them to your liking, also I believe there are a lot of sites devoted to this, google is your friend.

I don't like sounds either really. That's why I just included windows start up and shut down sequences, and window button sounds. Just a little something to beat the monotomy, and not interfere.

oh hell, travis.. i'd be listening to some chill music, doing some work or just relaxing, and i'd get this abnoxiously loud "buhDING!" on four sides of me.. my heart would stop for 2 seconds, and when i could see again i'd be totaly shaken up i took off every system sound except for incomming aim's, but i made that one something real soft that i can hear but it doesn't interrupt what i'm listening to.
