I notice the taskbar(the long thingie below) is changeable, right?
So I think you must be using windows XP, can it be done with windows 2k?

I-Chan
June 13th, 2003, 13:59
And with the start menu opened...

finalight
June 13th, 2003, 14:04
To kirby: where do I get windowsblind
To I-chan: is that windows XP or 2K?

chaosblade
June 13th, 2003, 14:09
Judging by the way the start menu is built thats XP .

You can get windowblinds at www.stardock.com - Version 4 introduced the ShellStyles (Changed Taskbar aswell) but im not sure its released to win2k/9x/me yet . They are planning to do so however (sometimes later this year) so check out that site .

Advice - DONT mess with windows DLL files . bad idea IMHO .

I-Chan
June 13th, 2003, 14:29
finalight, it's XP PRO + StyleXP.

Kane
June 13th, 2003, 14:58
>yes it can, but you will have to use Windowblinds. I'm not sure if there is another way, but I heard something about a dll file

The uxtheme.dll requires XP, as it simply uses the native theme support.

chaosblade
June 13th, 2003, 15:11
IIRC there's a free patcher that does it .
but you'd rather be installing StyleXP (Recommanded) / Windowblinds if you're in Windows XP .

Windows 2000/NT/ME/9X would have to wait for Version 4 of windowblinds for that . or change shells ..

finalight
June 13th, 2003, 15:48
so that means no windowsblind for win 2K right now?

Kane
June 13th, 2003, 15:53
>so that means no windowsblind for win 2K right now?

No, Windowblinds works in 2k, just not in 9x/ME

finalight
June 13th, 2003, 16:37
mm..it's hard to make one

chaosblade
June 13th, 2003, 19:29
There is windowblinds for all Windows OS's IIRC .

Just some older systems like ME/9X have less options and less parts of the system skinned .

Live long and prosper.

If you like girls your a pervert. If you dont, your ga_, or your just wierd. So whos to say that no women in this world have a big muscular body builder on their desktop. Would that make them perverts.

Razor Blade
June 14th, 2003, 17:46
Muscular chicks are gross! I prefer a lean girl with a nice small ass! Example: Lucy Lui. *drools* :nod2: O ya!

Anyways back on topic ... Nice desktops everyone. Noone commented on kine though. :(

Razor Blade
June 14th, 2003, 18:26
Theres I think like 5 animated shorts in the film. The one I have is from the people who made Final Fantasy:TSW beleive it or not. Theres also anime style movie shorts too! I have yet to watch those though. :)

finalight
June 14th, 2003, 18:45
you're making me suspect that the one who make animatrix are the ones who make FF:TSW

chaosblade
June 14th, 2003, 18:54
Yea , Its based on the matrix world , made with the same style as FF:TSW (thats actully dr. ross with a makeover) .. real cool :)

Edit: oh yea , forgot the perv issue . pervs because we like girls ? LOL !

Though i understand your angle , its an animated chick laying in a real sweet pose with barely anything on .. *drool pause*
but still its a girl :)

finalight
June 14th, 2003, 19:21

You're not forced to put her pic in your desktop, but putting it wouldn't make you a pervert, either. It's up to you whether to use it or not.

theblackfrog
June 21st, 2003, 02:03
heres mine, its nothing special, the backgrounds rotates between some 20 pictures or so. the little menu slides up to the top and hides there when im not using it, other than that its quite ordinary, i run at 1024*768 so its a bit blurry but you can still make it out, its like 116k as a gif, rock on.

note the menu has the my computer etc stuff on the top, then on the bottom is the task bar thingy :)

Kane
June 21st, 2003, 03:45

Cylinder
June 21st, 2003, 06:45
Just the bandwidth... but that is really a moot point since you can still make a 200KB 800x600 image.

Kane
June 21st, 2003, 06:49
True, but an 800x600 image is less likely to be 200k. Futhermore, from what I understand from a brif chat I had with Bobbi, bandwidth isn't an issue (that said, the ruckus surrounding v2 may have changed that)

chaosblade
June 21st, 2003, 14:45
So 1024x768 is kinda allowed ? thats nice . you could see more things in that res .

Nothing ? Winamp 2.xx arent nothing .
and they are much better then their wa3 counter-part , they are much faster and less buggier .

so wa3 has freeform skins .. big deal. thats the only thing 'good' about wa3 .

op3n_skill
June 23rd, 2003, 19:04

op3n, there is only one problem with your wallpaper, the arctic warfare magnum cannot fire single rounds, they need to be in a clip like you have near the sun glasses. It may be possible, but it would be really slow to reload that way. :heh:

background works nicely thank you...i'm gonna find a few and debate against myself whihc one i want :pThere is this little thing called compression.
Observe. Pic 3 is your current avatar at a whopping 18.6Kb! Even an uncompressed 24-bit PNG is smaller than that!
Pic 1 is one that I compressed to a fraction of that (3.51Kb)
Pic 2 is your current sig at 50Kb!!!! Twice the limit for sig images!
Pic 4 is one I compressed to less than a fifth of that (9.77Kb)
I suggest you sort this out, as not everyone has a 2 meg leased line.
Edit: sorry about the messed up order

Hey chaos, dont worry...
I tell my friends to use 2xx than 3................

>op3n, there is only one problem with your wallpaper, the arctic warfare magnum cannot fire single rounds, they need to be in a clip like you have near the sun glasses. It may be possible, but it would be really slow to reload that way.

This might be late but hey!
Well if i could remind myself, the AWM/P can fire single rounds like it's old bolt action counterparts(inserting it through the bolt while it's open)..........

But why they're outside?
they look cooler than inside the mag......
and i forgot the rounds box... hehe........

Here is my current one. Its Kurt from MDK (my favorite game(s) of all time before half-life :D ). They ruined mdk2 by adding the doctor and the dog max. Max was _okay_ except kurt was still by far the coolest. Overall the games still rocked.

Samor
June 27th, 2003, 15:27
48x48 : xp tiles
32x32 : icons (win98/xp)
16x16 : small versions

I'd recommend to use MicroAngelo to create icons.

Samor
June 27th, 2003, 16:07
I thought they always were 48x48

128x128 would be HUGE

finalight
June 27th, 2003, 16:08
you mean icons for windows 2000 at a resolution of 1024*768 would be 48 x48?

Samor
June 27th, 2003, 16:11
2000 I dont know; but icons are always at a fixed res.

98 uses 32x32 and 16x16; in XP they added the 48x48 option.
at least, thats how it goes AFAIK...

If I have to make an icon for something I usually make a .ICO file with separate icons for those 3 formats (that looks better than when it gets stretched or downsized)

finalight
June 27th, 2003, 16:21
I've check:
I tried take screenshot of my windows and take the selection of one of my icon.
Found out that my internet explorer icon size is 36 x 35, which means 35 x35(i did not crop exactly)

Samor
June 27th, 2003, 16:28
