    Most OSX gadgets look good.

    I downloaded yahoo widget the other day and its not bad, got the weather dock, itunes skins to make it smaller & all that malarky.

    I'm not keen on GUI's like, same with picwin's, s'all pretty naff IMO.

    just have a look on the FAQW mate.

    you just basically extract the theme to the directoty then run theme wizard

    Just had a mess about with it, not overly keen at all.

    Made a right mess out of my systray, start menu's etc... Visually it's awful too. The taskbar's are 99.9% fugly!

    I use this and have never had any problems with it, works spot on- has changed everything it should- lets you customise loads of stuff you otherwise couldn't too
