My desktop is boring....
I had a cool custom shell some time ago, but I got tired of it.

what program are you all running to get your start menu to look like that? litestep?
-
Actually, I believe the program is called XPStyle. I used to have the same background settings as likwidtek has now, but I had to reformat and havent bothered to put it back on yet, I don't really have a need or desire for it atm. Anyways, my desktop...

That's just your excuse to get some nipples on your background. Isn't it.

Kael = perfect example of a perverted mind ;)
turning art into porn, THX KAEL!
-
Lol, you got that off 3dkingdom right? They have some amazing stuff.
-
sorta, my buddy made it in class and submitted it there (3dkingdom).. good eye ;)
-
WOW! Your friend made that? That is really good stuff. Is he a pro or hobbyist 3d modeller?
-
we're both in graphics art & game design for college, he does 3d modelling and i do shade texture and 3d design.
if u want i can show u some more stuff we've done..
-
That'd be awesome as I'm currently trying to learn 3dsmax. I'm gonna go play Doom 3 now but I'll be back in a couple hours.
-
you read my mind exactly ;) doom3 baby!
-
Im gonna stop for awhile. I just got to hell. Intense stuff.

Hey that's real nice Seven, and I don't mean that in a perverted way. I thought it was a real person at first, and still considered it artistic, not porn. But now that I see it's 3D model, it's even cooler. Nice job to you and/or your friend.
-
that is pretty neat. You should post more of his stuff I would like to see stuff you've made too. :)

Orangefro MY MAN! You like or love Iron Maiden?
-
I LOVE Maiden !!!! I got to see them Again, Last year here in Denver.
I also have to Plug another GREAT band here OPETH, their Album "My Arms, Your Hearse" has an awesome cover of Maiden's "Remember Tomorrow"
-
My favourite album is Killers, Paul Diano was the best imo. I still would LOVE to see them live.
-

Had to resize down hell of so it's a bit blury :P Besides that all my games n crap I keep in my quickmenu :)
-
Thanks Orangefro, it's great to have another maiden fan in the clan except for me and Oronos :D You got to see them last year? I'm seriously envious, rumours are going round that they have a UK tour penned for next year, and I would kill to go and see it if it happens.. so you saw them last year, dance of death tour right? I want details dammit! (I thought hte caricitures were pretty good :P and Steve's giving me thumbs up! It can't be bad)
-
Tridus, how did you get the Warlords mod to work? It doesn't seem to work for me. Can you either post or pm direct instructions please?
-
eh i got bored .... plus got a new computer ... so yay for new desktop! w00t!
(http://img98.exs.cx/img98/6910/Image364.jpg)
as you can see i was procrastinating writing a 7 page essay :D
-
Clean, very clean. :)
-
hm might as well...
http://img60.exs.cx/img60/9233/desktop121.jpg
all the top tabs are pull down menus~
-
Where did you get that itachi?
-
Wow, that kicks total ass, totally.
-
Here it is: http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/2743359/
-
I like Grim's desktop. Where'd you get it Grim ?
-
How do you take a picture of your desktop!?! I'm a noob, btw.
And where are those cool toolbar themes?
-
you can take a screenshot of your desktop by pressing the "print screen" button on your keyboard, and then pasting it into an art program.
For my desktop, I'm using aston, which is a shell for windows. It uses a little less than half of the memory of the default xp desktop, so it's pretty nice.
http://www.astonshell.com/
For others, the most widely used would probably be windows blinds. It simply skin's programs in explorer, and uses anywhere between 5-10mb of ram in addition to explorer.exe.
You can get windows blinds from http://www.stardock.com.
Of course, there's various "other" sites in which you can get both programs for free, and even registered for free ;)
-
i found it while really bored on google one night .... just searched for "desktop" and went through lots of pics .... so i stole it hehe ;)
-
Bah! It's not working! Oh well, nice desktops everyone. And if you have seen the silver windows toolbar and the MxO Coder desktop then that's pretty much the gist of my desktop.]
-
Ok so i got the Theme you had up Itachi, could you perhaps teach me how to add crap into the desktop like at the top in the drop downs etc. Would be much appreciated.

Ditto
-
Ahhh, Aston
A definite favrourite... it just takes up much less memory than explorer.
T, to add that stuff, you need to go to the master options, and add in the plugins.
-
Hey im thinking of getting aston, but theres no point if its going to stop after 30 days....anyone have a crack for this? Let me know here or on AIM @ hauss316
-
if i knew what that was, lol i could help, try supernova.org, its a torrent site, can find all kinds of stuff. :) good luck
-
(http://img92.exs.cx/img92/7820/background40.jpg)
Its 1337ness, I know
-
To add stuff to the top menu (or wherever it is in your skin) just simply right click on one of the tabs and click change. After that a window should popup saying "Plug-in setup" on that, theres buttons along the top, one of which is "Add an element". You might want to look at the elements already there and copy the "First Icon" line of it, all three should be the same so just paste it into the three slots when you're in the new element window(otherwise it just won't show up, or it'll look all fucked up).
I think that's pretty much a quick jist of the whole thing, just play around with it, it's not too hard to figure it out.
-
Bah, I decided to post it. Happy now?

The black out name are with held for my own protection against the Agents.
-
Hmm? What are those black marks for? :D
-
What skinning program do you guys use? Esp. Eroz and Natuan...
-
Aston shell. It uses about half the resources that Micro$haft windows explorer does. The only down side to it is the learning curve of how the program operates. (You can find a free version, but its just so good I'm going to play for it.) Hey Nat you might know, but how do you get Aston do recongize Firefox as the default browers? And is there some way to have the left toolbar notepad to run on top of all apps? Like over the blurred game?

Wow, I'm really starting to like this Aston thing. I was using WindowBlinds, but I liked how yours looked, so I d/l it. It was a little frustrating at first, but I think I'm getting the hang of it. This is what I'm using right now, with a little bit of my own tweaking.
## Hacked by Lithium -- NDA Violation, Sorry
-
You need some blurs man. Aston is better IMO becasue it overrides windows explorer and uses less system resources while doing it. Window Blinds just overwrite Windows and uses more system resources. But hey, its all good. Now if I can just figure out how to reset back to default, the world would be good.
-
Hey, I've been really liking this Aston thing for a while, and I was wondering if those that are more graphically talented could try to make an Aston Shell in the Furious Angels style. It'd look really bitchin'.
-
Here is mine...I did the image.

I want Enoc's one!
-
Which one?
-
Hey Enoc... The only problem I have been running into on Aston it the 25 sec switch lag that I get start/ended/Alt-Tabing a game. Do you get it to?
-
A little, but not 25 sec. The problem I'm running into is getting a good crack for it. Any help?
-
Nada Help on that one.... I've paid out for Aston, it just too good to steal.
-
version?
-
1.9.1 I think I heard that they built it to reject cracks. Oh well, I went back to regular explorer, at least until I have the money to pay for it.
-
I'm considering buying Aston. Is it very difficult to configure? I consider myself an advanced computer user...I play with partitions, formatting, alternate OS's and such. If something goes wrong, can I switch back to the regular windows explorer easily? Thanks in advance for your replies!
-
Very easy back to Explorer but with Aston running why would you ever want to. If you have it running right now look for something called Shell Swapper then choose Explorer and keep clicking next.
