ChromeLS is a Chrome OS for LiteStep by YBoris (that’s me!)

To look good, you should download this VS (Visual Style) http://customize.org/xpthemes/65662
I am currently obtaining the author’s permission to re-distribute the VS with my modifications (removing an ugly 3px gray bar and moving the window title to the left)

The wallpaper that goes very well with this is http://sa-ki.deviantart.com/art/Clouds-38065368

Everything is easy to customize (I have made the code very neat)

Remix, enjoy, share

Nice, one small change "jDeskWorkArea "0, 22, 0, 0" looks a bit better flushes up maximized windows

tchronin - excellent suggestion!!! I didn't think of this clever and easy solution :D

Though unfortunately it chops off a little too much from Google Chrome browser - but it surely fixes some other problems :P

Pretty. Couple TINY things.

The tray by default is exactly large enough for seven icons; when I launched Winamp to test the volume/scroller, its icon was the eighth and was outside the hotspot. I couldn't reach it to restore the Winamp interface to access play controls. Solved: increase the width of the hotspot from 150 to 200, although a Winamp controller would not be unwelcome.

The middle-click menu has an item labelled "Tasks". I think most LS users will expect this to produce a menu of currently running tasks, but instead it launches the Windows Task Manager. Solved: rename to "Task Mgr".

And a question: the home menu has an item not in your screenshot - Firefox. Should this be? Shouldn't it be Chrome? Or is it defaulting to the system default browser? I just didn't expect that to be there.
