Great guitar themed desktop

The days of being able to show off a flashy image on your desktop and think that's enough to impress are sadly over.

If you want inspiration of just what is possible, you won’t go wrong by taking a look at Lifehacker.com. The most recent is a rather good picture of a Fender Stratocaster guitar with some clever custom menus.

The good thing about Lifehacker is there are explanations of how to work on the bits round the edges; it’s not just about the image any more.

One day I will get round to following the instructions for my Ubuntu laptop.

Great Desktop. I play a fender strat also and love the guitar photo for a desktop theme. Thanks for sharing.

That is one sweet desktop theme. The themes are getting better and better with each version of windows.

I'll have to go over to lifehacker and check it out.

a Fender? Maybe I am biased, but a Washburn is a much better guitar than the Fender any day...at least my guitar is still made in the US and not in...dare I say...China :-(.

Microsoft must be trying to break into new markets

Love the pic. Gotta have one - the desktop theme and the guitar itself!

Great shot. It certainly will be a hit to guitarist and music lovers. If only I can play it as well. At least I'll be able to have it on my desktop if anything else...

Excellent desktop theme, I'm a massive fan of music and absolutely love playing my guitar.
It's not a fender stratocaster unfortunately. Thanks!
