I was just going through process of re installing and setting things back up again and I was wondering, what themes, wall papers, boot and login screens others used and what tweaks they did to the standard installation, to personalise it and/or make it run better.
MInes a bit geeky at the mo, although I do change it regularly
At the mo, ive got a Transformers theme -

and up to now I am thinking of using, this as my bootup skin -

I am undecided on which Login skin to use.
With regards to tweaks, I tend to stop pretty much all applications that run on login to windows and stop some of the services, pretty much the same as Black vipers List.
Im using RT Tweak, to amend some of the standard stuff in windows and put 'god mode' on my right click menu. As for maintenance, I got a few different programs I run every so often, dunno if they actually make a difference, but keeps me happy nothings, hogging my system that shouldn't be :P
My only reason for starting this post was to get possibly a few ideas off other people, for images and such.
I only have a 60GB SSD, so I was planning on putting most my programs, on my normal hard drive and the only (apparently more correct, but they are both not supported) way to do this although MS won't support it through an 'unattended' XML File during installation, so I may as well make my own Windows installation using RT7Lite. I could ghost it but, it wouldn't be much good if I change motherboard.
Think I need to get out more again.... haha
