Good Desktop [Shell] Program?


I'm sick of windows blinds, and I'm looking for something great to spice up my desktop.

I dont care if it has a trial, or I'll ned to buy it. I am looking for a good shell program for my desktop, that will let me customize (at the very least) the wallpaper.

I dont remember what I used to use, but I was hoping you fellas could help.

Thanks

At the very least, doesn't Windows alone allow you to customize the wallpaper?

Yeah, I'm just saying I want a shell program that lets me edit the looks, and doesn't dictate how I can edit them too much. For example, I forget what it was called, but it forced me to stick with whatever theme came with it, and I couldn't change the looks or anything.

I've always had bad luck with those things - using to much memory or just plain sucking.

Ya same here, every time I have tried them they are bloated and slow. Maybe they have improved, but I am skeptical.

You would think someone would make a community based, open-source project. Those tend to be free and not suck.

Hey, I'll sure as hell do the graphics work if someone would just point out what to do, and do the coding for me.

Meanwhile. i'll just use the crap-o win 98 default skin, because the standard win xp theme takes up too much memory when playing, etc.

The idea, is i'm getting 2 gigs of ram in a couple of days, and I know I will be able to play and not have to suffer the boring archaic look of Win Xp and below.
