There are various methods for customizing the desktop appearance, such as themes, wallpapers, screensavers or icon packs. DesktopX is designed to do more than that: it can enhance your desktop looks and functionality using widgets, objects and gadgets.
The DesktopX main application runs in the system tray, but you can access its features using the DesktopX Helper widget, which enables you to navigate to the main sections, load widgets / objects and create new desktops.
The Desktop Builder is the tool included in the pack that allows you to build your own widgets and even complete desktop environments, which means that you get to configure all the items, including the taskbar and the start button.
The program comes with a collection of objects and widgets that you can import and include in your new desktop, but you can always grab more from the Internet.
Your new desktop can include the 80's Arcade widget (a collection of games), Fishy (a fish that swims all over your screen), calendars, clocks, picture frames, search widgets, to-do lists, a unit converters, volume control apps, weather monitoring tools and the Silica Word of the Day widget.
Objects are designed to bring additional functionality to your customized desktop. You can place them wherever you want, offering you easy access to your mailbox, the DVD drive, My Computer, Folders, Outlook or Word.
After choosing the desired item, you can easily export it as a stand-alone widget, objects or sidebar gadget or include it in a new DESKTOP file. Changing the desktop background image or color, adding labels and customizing their style, setting minimum and maximum resolution values or reducing your work area are other available options. Advanced users can attach scripts to objects in order to run different operations.
DesktopX is a handy application designed for those who don't settle for the traditional desktop look and want to put their creativity at work in order to build a desktop that fits their needs.
