Star Trek Computer: Now As Desktop Wallpaper

Hidden inside of Lifehacker’s awesome pool of custom desktops, is this outstanding Star Trek Desktop wallpaper. I think I like this one better than the Spidermac wallpaper I came across a week or so ago. Custom made, with a bunch of awesome widgets.

This is the perfect wallpaper for those of you psyched about the upcoming Star Trek film. Looks like I’ll have to take down my desktop wallpaper of Chris Pine as Kirk Zoe Saldana as Uhura.

    so i just did this on my own macbook. it took me all day to figure out. its a simple wallpaper that you can find here http://www.startrek4u.com/special/multimedia/lcars/curry/enterprise-e-engineering-ne.png . On top of the wallpaper, i used geektools to display the date time and weather

    here’s a site with basic scripts for geektools to get everyone up and running. some of the modules can be very complicated to install, while others are a simple command.

    Additionally, in place of the font used in the screenshot, I recommend “Swiss 911″. Unfortunately this is not a free font, but it matches that of the wallpaper PERFECTLY.

    None of this information was in the same place so I’m trying to make it easier for everyone else who loves star trek as much as i do

    you guys can also use a script called magic menu to auto hide the os x menu bar. it responds much like the auto hide feature the dock is capable of. You can find the scripts here http://www.cynosurex.com/Software/MagicMenu/
