I'm not sure I understand you question but I will try to answer anyway. Why not? How wrong can I be?

Windows has very limited skinning built in. YOu can change the color of windows, but that's about all.

There are many applications that can skin different parts of windows. The ones you listed work great and have a solid history.

I am also not completely sure...but I'm gonna have to say NO.

It is possible to have something akin to what you see here, but you will still need some kinda of soft ware program for the fancy stuff or objects or docks or etc - unless you stick to just recoloring your classic skin

Tks for the answer. The next is...so what is needed to run on windows so you can have the customized desktop? DesktopX, windowBlinds, or all for each part your skinning?
