DONE: Foreground wallpaper
skwire:
Thanks for the feedback. However, I can't take credit for the effect since I just recreated what the Desk Projection app was doing. Well, at least I think I did since I can't see what his code is actually doing.
As for using it, I agree with you. I, personally, won't use it but it is a neat effect. The next version will have multi-monitor support and a tray menu to adjust the transparency.

v1.0.1 - 2011-07-03
+ Official website release
+ Multi-monitor support. One caveat, though. Your monitors must be the
same resolution for this to work properly.
+ Tray menu to change the transparency level. This value is saved between
sessions.
+ Custom application icon courtesy of frankell. (Thanks, frankell)

@skwire: It probably needs to have options to change in sync with wallpaper changers - e.g., the Windows 7 Personalise/Desktop background changer:
* Fill
* Fit
* Stretch
* Tile
* CenterOtherwise it seems to override the changer and you may get stuck with a single, fixed and undesirable/distorted image.

Unfortunately, supporting all the different modes is harder than it seems (plus, I don't run Windows 7).

well well really a great work !! :Thmbsup: :Thmbsup:
just to remember that if you prefer any transparent level not in the tray menu, you can always use (as in the previous version) the config.ini file, actually I use: trans=22
I also like to mention that the icon is featuring my real desktop wallpaper: a modded version of "Walking with Orion " by the great artist Jeff Quick (his kind permission will be enclosed in my upload on Wincustomize)
