Application: DeskSkin Portable (De-supported)
Category: Utilities
Description: DeskSkin Portable is a Windows desktop overlay that is specifically designed to work with John T Haller's PortableApps Platform.
DeskSkin includes built-in links to :
- the Portable Documents folder in your USB drive
- the Root of your USB drive
- My Computer on the host system
- My Documents on the host system for the current user
- Printers and Faxes on the host system for the current user
- Control Panel on the host system
It also has a realtime Date/Time clock.
DeskSkin does not interact with the host system's desktop, and you can switch back and forth between them.
DeskSkin is easily skinnable by replacing the background.jpg and the icon *.gif files.
Users with some knowledge of HTML/CSS and vbscript can customize the app, adding new links, changing the style, even adding interactive scripts. Read the help file for some ideas...
NOTE:
This is my first app written from scratch!
