Popular plugin author AndreasV has released Avedesk 1.2. It's a program that started out as a way of running ObjectDock docklets on the desktop (called desklets(. But it's evolved into so much more.

Version 1.2 is donation-ware but still free to use. It now supports themes (put desklets together and save your configuration) along with a host of usability features to make working with desklets easier.
