    I'm liking WinBar and Samurize right about now. Need to get into it more when I have time, but they're pretty good from what I've done with them.

    Samurize is a bit difficult for me just because I'm not that artistic and creative, lol.

    I will try Stardock soon enuff.....hehe.

    Get WinBar here

    Get Samurize here

    And of course Stardock........
    To all my freaks out there: HOLLA if ya hear me.

    I can be characterized as the smartest dumbass and the dumbest smartass.

    My favorite P2P apps: Ares, Clean Blubster, BCDC++, Emule Plus, Shareaza, Bittorent

    Statbar is VERY similar to winbar, in fact, the web design layout is similar, and how things are labled/pictured is very similar

    I just installed WinBar. I like this damned thing so much; it makes keeping track of things and controlling Winamp so much simpler. Especially since my multimedia keyboard doesn't function all that well with Winamp. It's nice to be able to pause without restoring Winamp from the system tray.

    I usually stress over bars and things taking up space, but this is one is actually worth it. Also, it takes up little RAM (about 7 MB) and has no spyware. Me likie.

    I would definitely have to say Winbar. Well, I haven't tried any others but I am completely satisfied with Winbar so I don't really need to try the others.
    Where the hell is the ANY key???

    And it makes the menus about that much slower if you have an old video card :)

    Simple fix....... you're SOL if you have a shitty card, deal w/ it or buy a new card (this aint to you phalk so don't get all butt-hurt on me, I'm just saying this to everyone in general)


    *E* - only saying it 'cuz I been there and now I have "come up" and BTW StyleXP runs great, i'm sure it hinders my system in some way, 'cuz I have come across some very minor glitches, but besides that it is flawless and well worth it

    Yeah, I don't know, my vid card is 2 years old and menus are still pretty zippy. Maybe I've just forgotten how nice it is without it. If it's any older than 2 years, you're not gonna have the power to run Windows XP in the first place probably.

    samurize is cool. @Rahwgwar - i just keep my background picture the same but have samurize overlay the stuff i want. this includes now playing from WMP9, uptime, time and date, some resource usage meters and that's it. check out the ZP lounge and find the "ermmm show me ur desktop thread" if u wanna see a picture of it.

    my favourite bar app is barlaunch available here
