Classic. All the others waste pixels and aren't as well defined.
The normal one with the Window. I wish they would of carried Vista's blue/green/yellow wave thing over though :(
I mean the nice backgrounds! Not the toolbar layout etc. Desktop and stuff.
Background? Mine is solid black. I had a cat on a black background at one time, but he got in the way of sensible icon layouts.
Right click and personalise and you get a bunch of themes with more online.
Windows 7 Basic (Classic in XP). All other themes seem somewhat childish. Aero and transparency sucks. Microsoft simply can't do slick designs like Apple, so I'll stick with the nice industrial look.
I disagree I think windows 7 looks the part. Furthermore I hate all things apple (except my ipod classic) so therefore I think their design sucks :)
Another vote for Windows 7 Basic, with a solid blue background in my case. The rest, as far as I'm concerned, is pretentious cobblers. My PCs are tools to do a job, and I don't want a power drill in a Renoir-themed case cover either.
Boooo
I like pretty pictures to keep me... focussed on whatever I am doing :P
Nasa, simple and still quite clean over the artier ones :)
I use the Bing one that changes your background at an interval you specify.
Currently on landscapes. Been through United Kingdom and Nature, bored of them so onto this now.
The only thing I've changed from the default is to disable all system sounds, because I hate them :)
Just personalize them - I removed the sounds too but kept the piccies :D
To save starting a new thread, my backgrounds don't change. I have them set to change every 10 seconds, have selected all the pictures and they will work for a few mins...then stop? When I turn the laptop on and off it disables it as well.
I have checked my battery settings and they are all set up correctly!
