Ugh, someone is going to have to spell this out for me or point me toward a complete tutorial.
Thanks for the link, though. I have a few in mind, but lack the knowledge on how to install it.

I tried installing the Gaia theme. Followed the instructions perfectly but somehow I farked up my explorer.exe and ExplorerFrame.dll

It was horrid.

All I could use my task manager and I couldn't see dlls.

I had to use my laptop on my share drive to rename the dlls to .exes. Then I could used the windows task manager > run > notepad. With notepad I could find the files, move them, and then rename them back to dll.

Never knew Skins involved explorer.exe and stuff :shock: I'm no tech pro but I have installed the Gaia them before by using Rainmeter. Just download the Gaia theme in your Rainmeter skin folder :)

Bleh.

Spoiler!


I always keep MSN on top, in that position so its practically part of my desktop. =]

Edit: If anyone was wondering why I have WMP and iTunes open, I was charging my iPod. I usually use WMP. :)
