so lets start

Configure Appearience

taskbar appearance...
hold mouse on the taskbar n goto "panel preferences" thn select appearance tab and select image "background.png" i.e
usr/share/lxpanel/background.png (we are in ths folder by default)

start menu logo..
to change the logo of start menu go to the same panel preferences and select "panel applets" tab.. now in the list click on "menu" and press the edit button in the right and select the logo(png) you want make sure its size is 36x36...

window style
goto start-menu/preference and select "openbox configuration manager" you will see alot of window styles in themes

aqualung music player(needs to be installed i guess)
Code:

debbie aqualung

uget download manager (needs installation)
WARNING - U NEED TO SPECIFY FILE SAVE LOCATION OR YOU WILL LOOSE ALL THE SPACE IN "HOME" AND ".DEBIAN"...
what works for me is
"/home/user/MyDocs/downloads"
open xterm n type
Code:

debbie uget-gtk

pcman file manager (i personally feel its better then maemo filemanager)... coz its multitab, enable hidden-files, thumbnails,image-viewer/slide show,and can play music if we set "aqualung" as default audio player
Code:

debbie pcmanfm

File Searching( in maemo) "its really a bliss"
Code:

debbie pcmanfm --find-files

as it starts in /home/user/ by default we need to add lication where to search.. by clicking star(add) then browse where you wanna search or "All local disc partition"..
again we can launch audio(aqualung) and images from here too, just hold click on a file and select open
or we can open the file location in "pcman file manager"
