What Theme Has Stayed On Your Computer The Longest

Well, obviously Luna and Classic have 'stayed on' my computer the longest since they were there at install. ;) My longest styles in use are probably AikonXP, SSStudio Pro, and Aluminum Alloy, though.

Puma Snow from b0se, tweaked of course, to fit my needs.

I try any new theme when it comes out, but I always come back to this one.

Very clean and easy on the eyes.

I use Mike Bryants Avenger WB4 skin (here) on my work PC and TDK Panther 3.3 (soon-to-be 4.0!!!!!) msstyle on my home PC.

Very honorable mentions :

1. E-Platino by Y/C ([WB4 by Pas/Snidely Whiplash] used this the longest before switching to Avenger and TDK Panther) - here

2. ChaNinja's RC5 - here

3. Iceman's Jaguar - everybody knows where to get this masterpiece !!

4. BBX Mercury X (wb4 by Ian Black/Voodoo_freaK) - here

I think you missed my meaning. I meant 'stayed on' as in just sat there. Neither was in use for very long (well, I don't think I ever used classic).

After two years of Luna, Iceman's Jaguar held strong until I discovered Kol's Smooth Stripes port.

I plan on having Smooth Stripes be the (second) longest soon.

AlumiteX

FatalE

Milk

Smooth Stripes

I used Iceman's Jaguar at first, but like everything, you tend to fancy a change once in a while. For the last month or so I've been using anything with a snow or brushed approach

SNOW

KoL's Milk/Redux

StefanKa's 6Pack(Grey)

BRUSHED

KoL's Brushed Panther

StefanKa's Metallica Snow

Just in case anyone doesn't know this already:

Sorry I regret I wasn't been properly introduced with AS but yeah...

I have something to share myself:

Before introduction with AS

Luna->Too common for me...

Classic->Way better. Considered performance, simplicity and usability.

After introduction with AS

Iceman Jaguar -> Instant hit! Loved that brushed effect

PPro/ProGloss.msstyles/ProGlossv205 -> Hmm... considered to be more beautiful current fav.

Future with AS

Hmm... as long as style concepts are continually discussed by the AS community, created by the talented theme experts, validated by the AS community for beta, compared with current visual trends with Mac, enhanced by the AS community yet again, revised by visual gurus for tweaks and final release, modified by the burning desire of the AS community for self-righteous beautification and personalization purposes and finally to be discussed again for the ever-repeating unquenchable thirst for having the best looking desktop in the world! Aqua-style no less. That would be just fine with me. Do you see the pattern here?

I dream that one day M$ will submit to the consumer. Every pixel on the desktop should be modifiable. Split the interface with the logic of the OS. Free the GUI so to speak. Imagine having the power to customize the desktop without using a single third party app. Is it possible? Um... dream. >.:blink:

Will someone explain why we can't do this? While wondering consider the attached file, extract the contents and run it with these simple thoughts... Why is it so easy to manipulate the large picture? Isn't it suppose to be easier to manage the smaller details?

Sorry for the long post... hope you understand the frustration I have. I just feel that this is what this community is striving for... simply control over our desktop. Agree? Other discussions are waiting to be typed... now kindly move on to the next topic... life must go on. :lol:

Gradually start and focus! Be inspired! :D

Watercolor of course.

Screw mac themes, they're way too overated. ;) And tacky too. :D

I had some form of OSXP (OSXP-A, OSXPNG, etc.) for windowblinds on my computer for over a year. Only recently have I made the switch to a more jaguar looking windowblinds theme.

Also, I've had some sort of iTunes skin on QCD for as long as there's been an iTunes skin out there.

Still, first prize would have to go to my trusty PowerComputing PowerCenter 150 running a NeXT theme under kaleidoscope for probably close to five years.

From about February 'til early summer this year I was using something called GSAqua, an msstyle...after that I adopted my slightly modded version (to fix vertical taskbar bugs) of Kol's SmoothStripes Gloss Blue, which I'm still using to this day.
