Can I write a program that's spinned on the desktop, just like wallpaper?
-
I'd like to write an app runs like the wallpaper, it lays on desktop always, just like wallpaper, but it can also get mouse/keyboard messages, it that possible?

Good question. There should be a way to do it (I do not know). I suspect that you will need to subclass the desktop window; meaning that all messages go through your app. There are articles at CP on code that does that, so they can do their customized look for the interface. Depending on what you are trying to accomplish, it could be some what more difficult than that but it is probably not.

yes :)) Really! GetDesktopWindow() api can be used for this purpose. Good Luck!
