Windows 7: Transparent Windows
I put this in SPAM because I don't think this thread is important enough.
Does anyone think this is worth doing? I really like the look, but I'm not one to do much customization to my vanilla operating system. (Though I did install QTTabBar to get tabs for Windows Explorer.)

Re: Windows 7: Transparent Windows
I really like the look of that. I could see it being difficult to see things depending on how many windows you have open and what your wallpaper looks like though

Re: Windows 7: Transparent Windows
I'm not really one for looking at my desktop too much. The only times I really see it are when I'm starting up my PC, or when I have to drag something to my recycle bin. I did look into Rainmeter a while back, but I ended up never using it.
literally my entire desktop
I'm not sorry if I offended you.

Re: Windows 7: Transparent Windows
I think NeoReaper is an Asus fan. XD
I also don't like a crowded desktop, I like to see my background image. Unfortunately I always have modding stuff all over the desktop because I kind of use it as a working directory.
I just don't know how much system resources that transparent windows thing will use.

Barely any unless your PC barely can't handle DirectX 10/11

Re: Windows 7: Transparent Windows
I am thinking of making a Spyro (Or dragon) based Rainmeter theme that will not look techy like mine does right now but will look in completely the opposite direction.
