The German website Computerbild recently did a feature on CursorXP for their users.
Treetog and Alexandrie have created some wonderful desktop themes for Nintendo of Europe. They have posted new screenshots at the Pixtudio site. Only people who buy and register a Nintendo game or console in Europe have been able to download these wonderful themes, so it is a bit of a "tease." But it does show how skinning can be an integral part of a successful marketing campaign. Special thanks to Pedro Sanudo of Nintendo for his permissions!
