Thanks, guys!  

I'm stuck with almost the same as last years setup with only minor changes. Wb by adni18 & Rainmeter by adni18 & xeniumArt edited for personal use. Wall by AI, PS & me (updated just now and removed some obvious AI flaws)

Stuck? I don't think so. Looks great to me, Jan. Sometimes a really good combo is hard to beat.

I agree with Doc. This is gorgeous!       

Thanks guys! Yours are great & funny too, Doc! Maybe I'll make some screenie(s) with something different too. December is just starting.

Shazzam! Hey pelaird, we did it! That's the spirit! Glad you finally believe us, Jan!    

When I built this machine I drew a line at 32 gig of DDR4 as that was over $1000 AUD.  Just the other day I doubled it for $180 AUD ... so I'm revisiting my VMs ... can allocate a lot more capacity and ram since they were setup.

This is good old Windows 98, wall is "Ensnare" by Misery [on WC here somewhere] and the shell is Litestep [one of mine].

A couple of decades ago things were quirky ... 

Had to look up the history of the price of RAM...it's amazing.

The final question, should I add drop shadows or no?

I wouldn't. I'd leave it as is. Cleaner, flatter.

This screenshot features a Xion skin that I haven't released as it can only be used with the wallpaper behind it, and I didn't think people would be interested in that. The entire lighthouse is the player, and has light beams which react with the beat, The progress bar is the blue yacht which runs between the two flying seagulls. The umbrellas are all buttons too, and the open umbrella is the volume control. I added the bi-plane as the track title, it wasn't on the original wall. The skin is Helios by vStyler, one of my all time favourites. I used the Windowblind skin to make the playlist too.
