This is really Awesome… Thanks for this…

Are you referring to the grey line above “Control Panel Home”? I have no idea what causes that. It’s possible the theme author is aware/can find out…
Thanks for sharing this wallpaper, Rich. I think DeviantArt is great. I downloaded theme from the site to give my PC the same Metro look that the Windows phone 7 has. If you’re interested in getting that interface as well, I’ve put together a quick how-to on my blog: http://bit.ly/mKDCCi
thanks for the great looking theme
