ProTree

ProTree is a desktop application that displays a beautiful and nicely decorated fir-tree that is accompanied by a cute Collie dog.
The app resides on your computer screen and allows you to place it wherever you see fit. The size it takes up on your computer screen shouldn't worry you as the application can be resized. You can shrink it to the size of an icon or enlarge it to almost your entire screen height. This way, you can fit it to any theme you have installed on your Windows operating system.
There’s no interface to speak of but the graphic elements that make up the app are worth mentioning. They come in a lot of shapes and sizes, fixed or animated. You get pulsing lights and flickering reflections along with a cute Collie that seldomly blinks and waves his tail.
You can’t say that ProTree is an interactive desktop toy as it does nothing when you click the tree. On the other hand, clicking the dog makes him turn around and give you a nice little friendly bark and from time to time turns into a rather large present.
Apart from the size of the tree, you can also adjust the app’s transparency along with the volume of the special effects. Moreover, you can choose from different modes in which the tree is animated. You can select to only have the tree flash the lights or turn some of them off.
If you want to keep ProTree fixed in one place, you can do so by disabling its ‘draggable’ feature and placing it on top of other applications.
In closing, ProTree is a well designed and fun application that can certainly bring with its use a little bit of Christmas spirit.
