I often forget that there's still a community of visual basic developers out there building all sorts of goofy apps for windows. This site has a whole bunch of useful utilities, including Gribouille, a program that lets you draw all over your desktop, Pubcruncher, an app that kills popup windows, and my favorite: "Nap and Coffee", a fake app that lets you walk away from your computer and make it appear that you're copying large files, scanning for viruses, or setting up a program.

I like Gribouille- but I've always wanted to have "colorforms" for my desktop. Pictures or shapes that I can drag around form different pictures- not in a window, but on my desktop. Anyone see anything like this around?
