Various Programs:

This section offers various useful programs of interest for personal use or even small businesses:

  • CWhere Software offers a Freeware program called Desktop Freak that helps you install desktop themes, and/or make other customized adjustments to your desktop including sounds, fonts, wallpaper, colors, etc. If you are interested in making your own themes, you may want to try their program called Theme Freak (Shareware).

  • Quick Skin 1.3 is a very simple to use Freeware WinAmp Skin maker. This program is small (only 960 kb), and generates the WinAmp skins from any bmp (bitmap) graphic file(s). A detailed help file is also included with this program, though you probably will not need it.

  • Check Printing Software 2000 is Freeware that lets you print either blank cheques or pre-printed bank checks for accounting/money programs like Quicken, Quick Books or Microsoft Money. They offer a detailed online Tutorial that helps you use this program and tells you about all its features. On their order page for check stock paper, you will also find links to other sites that offer tools and/or add-in programs to use with this printing program.

  • OnSign is a free program that lets you add a personalized digital signature to documents and/or email messages. This program works with Outlook, Outlook Express, Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel 97/2000 and is compatible for all Windows versions including XP.

  • Here is one for the gamers... this game combines puzzle with arcade and is called Fitznik 1.0. A dog (it might be a wolf... not sure *smile*) called Fitz gatherers glittering gems from an ancient lost city. Outwit fire-breathing cobras and voracious spiders as you move boulders, build bridges, detonate bombs, and more. Fitznik is easy to learn, yet tough to master... I have yet to finish all levels (got as far as level 8). The free version comes first 10 levels and the full version lets you play 54 levels plus 9 bonus levels.

Desktop Enhancements:

The following are various sites with some great wallpaper and other things to enhance your desktop. Not everything is intended for the holidays, but still great to check out:

  • Gizmo Zone offers 3-d Screensavers, WinAmp Plugins, some desktop themes. Make sure to get the screensavers called Light in the City (Christmas saver featuring a 3-d ride through a decorated city complete with traffic lights, cars, holiday decorations that are lighted, snow and music), or try Shortcut or Deep Sea.

  • Pixelesque offers some great animated Logo Screens (these are your start-up, wait and shutdown screens). You will find screens for the holidays, window specific screens (i.e. Windows 98), and various others.

  • Snowy Scenes is also a wintry screensaver. It offers music, a nature scene and of course snow that builds up on the background scene. You can adjust the speed of the snow, and/or mute the sound. Other screensavers are also offered at Screensavers.com that are categorized into Puzzles, Cubes, Lake Scenes, etc.

  • Organic Art Gallery offers a picture gallery and a collection of over 23 wallpapers for your computer in sizes 800x600 and 1024x768, that are considered 3-d abstract images with vibrant colors and shapes.

  • Wallpapers RU offers a variety of wallpaper for your PC, but the site is in russian. You may want to turn on your STATUS BAR (click on VIEW at the top of your browser window and choose STATUS BAR), as this may help you with the navigation for this site (hold your mouse over a link and this will give you a hint what you are about to view in the status bar). Wallpaper categories seem to range from holidays, art, scifi, to prehistoric.
