I use some components of Window Blinds and some of the widgets from Yahoo for the desktop but I tell you there is performance issues. If I load up DAZ Studio and don't have it Maximum to where the edges are covering the entire desktop and then load up a character I can SEE the widgets in the work area as the irratating outlines. When using WB's fully it messed up something in the Studio folders somehow to where the rendering engine was not able to render correctly and I was just getting error messages. Regardless of what I did, reinstalled, blah blah blah, it wasn't untill I gave in and did a fresh install of Windows that the issue cleared up.... I've not fully installed WB's since as I don't want to go through that again!!! Poser gave me a little grief with the widgets showing up but no rendering issues but I don't use Poser all that much so it was worth getting the Studio issue resolved.
I have just the WB's engine installed so I can use Object Dock and the Desktop bar if I so desire. The Yahoo widgets will on occasion give me outlines in the Studio work area so I took most of all of them off of the desktop. You have the weigh the odds of if this is possibly going to hinder or interfere with my hobby - work - etc.... then is it worth it or not. For me it's not worth the extra fancy this or that!!
