Well I've gone back to the windows classic theme. Its boring but I like it better because its dosent take up as much room as other themes.

I wouldn't be surprised. Although after I warm up I get very sneaky and scare people. I once scared my best bud (who has trained me in some CS stuff) so bad, when he saw me he kinda threw his mouse which made his character spin around as I killed him. :P

I've been having a monthly desktop screenshot thread on Lunarsoft.net for a while now; it's kinda interesting to see what people use. :)

The name of it is BlueModd 1.5 as it's a mod out of the LE3 and 5! It's quite good.
