I really think that clock is amazing. I like the crystals move too... the drift and spin. I am using them on my desktop. But I was using a different background.... it fits better with my mood, I guess. I do like the background, only it is a little cold looking for Hawaii (i don't do cold well, and that is why I left Colorado for Hawaii long ago). I usually hide all icons from my desktop. That is the first thing I learned to do to customize a computer.
Again, that clock is amazing. I really like it a lot.

Well, I thought I might like the sky better with more texture... some clouds or something. But basically, as a personal preference I have been going more for warmer things. I also find myself wanting to have some form of life in my themes... i usually always have grass or fish...
Some big lonely birds, like albatross, circling in the sky might be a nice touch. Long slow gliding birds.... or a single.
But all my stuffs don't really have much to do with your graphics, which are really quite nice! It will be a long time before I give up that clock.
It must have been really hard to get those crystals just so... their spin is so dimensional. Very detailed work getting that done, IMO. And I like the way they kind of drift on the screen.

Thanks! 
The cubes was worth 2 hours render time each plus about 30-50 min of post render work each too. Clock is wsy worse. I had to render it 72 times. One for each hour and each minute.
Hmm I was thinking about very chilly weather, that usually causes very pale blue/teal sky with no clouds.
Thanks for detailed feedbacks. My skin went down the list pretty fast so it didn't get much chances for feedback.

hehehe.... goodmorphing has forgotten much about cold weather.
Actually, now I freeze when it reaches lower 80s.

Looks nicer when there isn't a text bg color on the desktop icons also.
I dunno, not sure what your asking
