Hey everyone,  
These have been around for a while, but if you did not know about them, you may want to give the XP Powertoys a shot: [http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx](http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/xppowertoys.mspx)

I use TweakUI, the Alt + Tab Replacement, and the Image Resizer often! They are extremely useful, and you may find other little things on that page that suit you more 🙂

Cheers!

I used to use the Tweak UI, but it tends to run slow if you have like, 20 things open (like I do most of the time). 😃

I thought I’d like the Alt+Tab, but do you relaly find that much use for it?
