    Same idea as always - post an image of your desktop. Amazingly, I have NO ac/dc related content this time. Shocker!

    DESKTOP

    Please - warn of massive images, for the dialup kiddies

    What OS is that? Are you using some kind of integrated desktop program? I want... :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,216 ✭✭✭Kur4mA


    It's XP Pro using this visual style and the icons in the taskbar can be done using True Launch Bar. The icons and text on the background are done using Samurize with my own script and if you want it give me a pm ;). I can't remember where I got those nice white icons from but sure I can dig around to find them.

    Here's mine depending on my mood.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    It looks boring enough but its animated so cant really see it. All those cirles float up from the VAIO sign like bubbles,its fairly nice to have.

    Check the www.sony.ie to get it

    As usual I find myself asking:

    - What's the program that puts the calender on the desktop?
    http://members.boards.ie/notme/desktop_16_04_05.jpg

    - And the one for the weather? Is it accurate for Ireland?!
    http://members.boards.ie/chad_ghostal/desktop.JPG

    I'm presuming one or the other is samurize so I'm surfing that now.

    Thanks!

    Bit late to the party here, but I just wanted to show off my desktop. Finally got a todo list that just sits on desktop. The rest kinda followed from that, although I've been using ObjectDock for a few months now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,295 ✭✭✭jonnybadd


    The first link is what my desktop looks like normally

    But my main folders, Games applications etc are in toolbars that are auto-hidden so when i mouse over them they appear.

    This second link is what it looks like when all three are viewable

    Desktop (~120K)

    Desktop full(~120K)

    EDIT: Second link didn't work, fine now
