A few weeks ago I pulled up some of the popular wallpapers on WinCustomize from about 5 years back.  Today, I wanted to do the same thing, but this time with cursors.  Looking back quite a few years to around this time in 2004, the CursorXP gallery, now CursorFX, was just buzzing with activity. Take a look at some of the incredible submissions from back then, which are all still great to use to this day. I see several names we don't see m...

Friday is always an exciting day around here....not because of the upcoming weekend, but because it's that time for This Week in Skinning!  This week had a real nice selection of skins from a variety of skinners, so be sure to check out this weeks edition of TWiS.

Take a look at the full article at the link below.   ...

Over the past week or two we have seen some really fantastic .dreams (animated wallpapers) make their way in the galleries.  I can just imagine when DeskScapes 2.0 is released, it will take off even more.

New Years is another holiday I wish we would see more skins devoted to.

Regardless, I went through the galleries and found a few skins in case some of you are interested in putting some New Years cheer on your desktop.
