10 Beautiful Windows 8 Themes

Windows 8 has been around for at least a year now, if you start counting from the Consumer Preview and even longer if you consider the Developer Preview as the first public introduction to the operating system. Granted, Windows 8 changed a lot since the early previews and only started to take shape post the Release Previews. That gave modders about six months to tinker around with the theme files and come up with something that still works with the final build. Looking at the custom visual styles that are currently available, I would say the designers are only starting to warm up. But still, here is our first collection of visual styles that beat the default look.

You get a small time-window, about 30 seconds or so, depending on how large the viewing area is.

How to Schedule Changes to Your Facebook Page Cover Photo

Facebook’s current layout, the so called Timeline, features a prominent, large cover photo that some people are using in a lot of different creative ways. Timeline is also available for Facebook Pages that people can use to promote their website or business or event. Although you can change the cover photo as often as you like, it’s meant to be static – something which you design and leave it for at least a few weeks or months like a redesigned website.
