Desktop Enhancements

Desktop enhancements are useful, personal, and playful. They'll transform the look and feel of your Windows interface, turning your favorite pictures into Windows icons or helping you find icons from your favorite TV shows.

If you're looking to add a personal touch to your desktop, put up your choice of wallpaper. Need more bells and whistles? For real-time weather, sports scores, and stock prices, try the Widgets & Gadgets category, which includes the popular Yahoo Widgets Engine, formerly known as Konfabulator. The Shell & Desktop Management category also includes small programs like alarms and clocks, clipboards, program launchers, and alternate options to Notepad.

Boring mouse pointers and hourglasses are easy to customize, thanks to CursorXP shareware. Icons can also go from zero to hero with programs like IconPackager. Moreover, you can choose from a wide selection of screensavers - or make your own! Try out some new skins and themes, which can personalize Windows from start-up screens to window fonts!
