Sidebar alternatives.....moving from Thoosje Sidebar
  

Well well, Thoosje's sidebar was bundled since Vista Transformation Pack 6.0 and it didn't perform well on legacy systems. Recently, it appears that Thoosje is busy with his own activities and his last month's alpha build doesn't look promising. I wonder if it's time to make changes for this stuff.

From version 6.0 till 8.0.1, one critical problem in Thoosje's Sidebar is very high memory consumption for gadget's preparation which can easily break down system's performance in legacy PCs. He hasn't been able to solved it since and now he's concentrating on developing a new software for his website, leaving unpolished works behind. I wonder if I should have faith in this young boy or move out to something more reliable...

Using thoosje sidebar is probably the worst decision EVER. It's written in crappy DesktopX that's why it's laggy and not very customizable.

VTP should use Sidebar RTM, or better, there was some awesome rainmeter vista rainbar sidebar, and it looks just like sidebar RTM!!!!11

Rainbar

Tried out the Rainbar suggested by gwine56 earlier..

quite a good 1.. I like it..
besides the recycle bin problem,
the icon is either too big or too small..
and i cannot drag files into recycle bin via rainbar..

besides that, its very good..
