Download sexy all-glass gadgets for your Vista or Windows 7 desktop
Looking for some fun, useful gadgets for your Windows 7 or Vista desktop? Sebastian compiled a list for the Windows 7 launch, and the crew at Into Windows have now shared a slick set of 14 which are dressed up (or is that undressed?) in transparent Aero Glass sexiness!The pack includes replacements for many of the common non-transparent gadgets like the Calendar, clock, CPU and bandwidth meters, recycle bin and mail status, radio, weather, notes, and system controls.
I'm not always that keen on the glass effect -- and I know from past comments that many Download Squad readers aren't big fans either -- but these gadgets really do look quite good on the right wallpapers. Dark images in particular provide a nice backdrop.
If glass is your thing, go download the Chameleon Glass set from gersma on DeviantArt.

Meh.. The clock and cpu/ram gauges aren't glassy.

Yeah. Not a fan of most of these. The calendar apps lacks the calendar days and a lot of the text gets cut off on many of the widgets. I'll keep the hard drive and NetUsage ones, though.

The mail gadget does not show on the desktop. Though to prove that it was running I tried reinstalling it and it said it was running. Anyone else having this issue with it not showing?

Ha, I dislike multiple posting, but I woke up to it running 5 times on my desktop.
