Some Style for my XP Desktop, Please?
I really never leave my desktop the way it is when I get a computer. I always look for ways to tweak, improve and stylize it.
This is the current state of the desktop of my Laptop.

Do you like it? In case you’re wondering what it is all about and how I got there, here it is in detail:
Wallpaper: Dark Wood by zygat3r.
Icon set: Windows Vista Icon Set included in Vista Inspirat 2 by the people from CrystalXP.
Windows XP skin: Royale Remixed (Royale Zune Colour Scheme) by oddbasket.
Songbird (Open Source music player) skin: BlackfuZZ (medium player) by verso.
Rocket Dock skin: Vista Black, 100% opacity (This skin comes with the program, so no need to download).
Dock Icons: Apple and Windows PNGs fo my kkmenu icon; HydroPRO -HP- Dock Icon Set for my personal Folder, My Computer and My Network Places Icons; The Dropbox icon (for my Dropbox folder)I can’t find where I got it… but I uploaded it on the link <-; Google Chrome icon for Google Chrome, of course; Speedy Dock Icon by Galender for my web apps Stacks docklet; Digsby (Multi-service instant messaging client) with it’s own icon; Songbird by OniKilly for Songbird; HydroPRO -HP- Dock Icon Set (again) for my programs Stacks docklet; Gaming Icons Pack by deleket; and Battery meter docklet + Atama icons for the batery meter.
KKMenu skin: Aero Small skin included in the KkMenu 1.2 RC2 (LSD mod 0.3).
And it is that simple to get a stylish desktop… do I spend too much time in merely aesthetic practices? First difine “too much time”
Anyone wanna share some screenshots?
