| _________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 2:05pm - Niccolai ""] I just messed with my navigation dock and colorized the icons and background in photoshop, I'm really liking the way this is turning out: [img] I can't wait to get vista and see what I can do with it. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 4:09pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] ZJD, are you trying to play a trick on us?! the minimized safari window in the lower right corner of your desktop shows RTTP with a picture of your desktop on it...what do you think you are, a wizard?! crazy! |

Something like that. Good eye. BUT HOW DID I DO IT? |
| _________________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 4:24pm - biggest/baddest ""] Niccolai is the winner for having cheesiest wallpaper so far. hahahaha. A nice combination of bryce 3D and the photoshop lens flare! |
| ____________________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 4:25pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] you did it very easily actually. and you did not cover your tracks either! "post by ZJD at Jul 1,2007 11:54pm edited Jul 2,2007 12:09am" i suspect screen capture after original post, followed by edit, hence the above evidence. mark richards 1, ZJD .5 for effort. |
| ___________________________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 4:27pm - ArrowHead is watching you ""] So far, MSD and Deadlikemurph win. Everything else looks bloated and flashy. Oh, and someone take up a collection to get Pam a new monitor? My heart cries in pain seeing that tiny screen. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 4:33pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] i never cared about customizing my desktop and all that shit, but after seeing niccolai put hours and hours of effort into his yesterday, i want fancy stuff, haha. i think the background nick has is bogus, but the aesthetics are pleasing; everything is uniformly blue and calm on the eyes (unlike the blues that the rev has chosen for RTTP that make me want to have a seizure everytime i look at something different, haha). here's a question...zjd might know this since he has a mac...where can i find the actual file for my desktop image (supplied by the computer itself) for editting? or is this even possible without pulling some strings? |

To be fair though, I didn't actually intend to trick anyone. The first one I posted had more shit on my desktop than usual and was therefore an innacurate representation of what it usually is. I suppose this means I have zero points now. |
| ____________________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 4:39pm - MarkFuckingRichards ""] you have .25 since you were honest. |
| ____________________________ [Jul 2,2007 4:44pm - ZJD ""] Thanks. I did a spotlight search for lightning and found the that the lightning wallpaper's info dealy says it's in library >desktop pictures > black and white. For some reason I do not see a desktop pictures folder, but I can open the picture from the spotlight search and save it wherever. |

I'm thinking about colorizing the redcord one I used to have blue. You should have seen me try and colorize all the semi transparent icons on my nav dock after you left mark, I was going fucking crazy. |

| _________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 5:17pm - Niccolai ""] oh, incase anyone doesn't know how to take a screen cap (pc), -go to your desktop, and hit the 'prt scrn' key above and to the right of your backspace key, -then open up MS pain or PS or whatever and rightclick-paste. -then save and upload. |

I haven't found anything nice looking that fits my color scheme though. |

| ___________________________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 6:36pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] No flashy shit for me. All that other bullshit just slows everything down. No window animations or anything for me either. |
| _________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 6:40pm - Niccolai ""] All that other bullshit just slows everything down. my theme and nav port take 84k total. I think I can spare 84k. |
| ___________________________________________________ [Jul 2,2007 6:56pm - menstrual_sweatpants_disco ""] I guess you're right. I think the window animations slow things down more than anything. I disable those fuckers right away. |

I think I can spare 84k. I don't know what you're using, but from past experiences with stardock stuff and windowblinds, it's just wasting resources. The most noticeable element of the desktop are the background, and the menu bar. The background can be whatever you want, and the taskbar can autohide. I just run everything stripped down, like MSD, and all the stuff I use normally is easily accessible from the start menu. Fancy tweaked out desktops are neat, but it's the equivalent of painting your hammer, or doing some nice calligraphy on your tape measure. Why dick around tweaking the tool, when you could be using the tool instead? |

That's a third; I literally only see my desktop when my PC's locked. Otherwise, I always have one or two folders, Notepad, and usually a Firefox session opened 24/7. The desktop is usually just some redonkulous 4chan shit or some nerd crap (painted Warhammer minis or something). |
