Make Windows 7 look sorta like KDE’s twin with “KDE Se7en Patcher”
Aug 12th
Customizers and those of you driven by the never ending need to constantly change the look of your PC have a new toy to play around with. While KDE is a pretty slick looking skin/theme for Linux, the fact that it is Linux only is what keeps many people from ever enjoying it. Many simply don’t feel they have the time or knowledge to learn the OS or deal with the incompatibilities that can arise. There is a solution however in KDE Se7en Patcher for Windows 7. Said patch will give Windows 7 the KDE treatment by replacing all of the stock Windows 7 garb with a host of KDE goodies including:
- Over 390 icon and bitmap resources patched
- Updated code compatible with Windows 7
- Updated/removed obsolete resources
- 190 KDE wallpapers in several resolutions
- Updated App UI
- Updated Installer — Option for normal or widescreen wallpapers
While the look isn’t 100% KDE, it should at least hold you over until another more featured pack comes along or start the fire under your arse to code your own package. Tinker away.

Hidden ringtones available in Windows 7!
Jun 10th
If you’re in the mood for some new ringtones for your tele, specifically your Blackberry (hey, I got these from Blackberry forums…represent…what can I say). These free ringtones in question are only in Windows 7 (to my knowledge, feel free to correct me). In order to score the free goods, navigate to:
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Ringtones.
If for some reason they aren’t there, you can’t find it, or you simply don’t want to take the 20 seconds needed to get there, you can get those same ringtones here (part 1) and here (part 2). Enjoy the Windows 7 goodness on your mobile. :)
