Yes it's back. The bandwidth problems have been aliviated, according to Bobbi, and thus this thread will once again be brought back to life.....
Anyways, please shrink pictures below 800x600 for easy viewing and try not to make the files themselves too big.

Why not allowing 1024x768 ? Non uses 800x600 desktops...
and resizing makes them blurry :(

dunno about you, but I can't see 1024x768 desktops fullscreen in a browser when my desktop is that resolution...having said that, I often prefer 640x480 even....but I assume that's allowed ;)

Most users use 1024x768. Thus it's easier to view 800x600 shots. I personaly am using 1280x960, and that shot isn't too blurry, hell I can even work out which track Winamp is running in that. Plus it reduces the overall image size. My image is ~100k

This is the first desktop pic of mine. The thing that is so incredible about it is that this guy is surfing on a river, not in the ocean! To be specific it's the Amazon river. Supposedly from storms or something the ocean water rushes into the river and causes this huge water break that goes on for miles. This guy surfed this "wave" for 40 minutes traveling 12 kilometers. Now that's awesome!!! Someday I will go to Brazil and do the same.

Well there is an autohide feature. I usually dont use it cuz it doesnt bother me all that much but when im in adobe and working with layers and picytures oh boy do i get mad. it just makes it so when you move your mouse to where the object dock is it will appear and when you take your mouse away it will dissapear. Sure it doesnt look as cool but hey? Thats what ya want. ;)

Wallpaper changer 1.80 (I'm sure there is a newer version)
You can put jpegs in the waalpaper list, and it will convert them into bitmaps b4 putting them on your desktop... next time wou'll reboot the bmp will be deleted, and another jpg will be converted, etc... so you can put a big list of jpeg without taking as much place as the same list with bmps

Of course, and here and there are very cool fighting/posing szenes. hence, it is not surprising because On Piece is A.Toriyama-inspirational and he's the godfather of coolness ;) I have to say that Eiichiro Oda, the author of OP got it to assume this Toriyama-typically-"lets watch the blue sky"-feeling in his style.

I guess it going to somthing like 38 volumes as Ranma 1/2 too.(And I have them all) Hope its comming to germany (as long its not cut because of a panty is showing :rolleyes: ). BTW: this catguy looks like moose ...the movements like Ranma, kinda mixture?
Kane
June 2nd, 2003, 21:07
Catguy? Inuyasha is a dog demon, hence his name which literaly means dog-demon.
Movements like Ranma? Not really. He uses his claws up till the point at which he gets his sword, Tetsusaiga, at which point we barely see his sankontetsu or higentetsu. Ranma fights with his fists and feet.
He acts a lot like Ranma tho.....

There is a uxtheme dll file which allows the use of normal style xp themes with no extra programs. YOu just chuck the themes in the %systemroot%\resources\themes directory.
