Sadly enough all I've done so far is look at cable forum and bbc.co.uk :(

I'm working on a laptop right now - but plan to have a fiddle later. The screen is pretty stunning tho.

It certainly does - only 'b' at the moment - but apparently the chipset is a 'g' one so it may be upgraded in future firmwares :)

Edit - woah!!! cheers dude - you've just 'kinged' me :)

Would look even better with drop shadows enabled on the icons?

I myself have gone back to the old classic xp look with themes disabled, needed the resources now I am getting more back into my games.

I like to use 1600 x 1200 desktops; I had to reduce it because CF wouldn't let me upload the full size. I find the best way to minimise overheads with wallpaper is to use .bmp files sized to your desktop (and use the 'Center' option). Although that makes for more disk space used, it takes the least resources to show on your desktop because the file doesn't need decompressing or resizing when it's refreshed.

By using B/W photos (which aren't just black & white, BTW: they'll look awful if you actually reduce the colour depth to 2 colours) and pictures with only a few colours in (this is a good example) you can also reduce file size by reducing the colour depth. Reduced colour depth also means they work well as GIFs for transfer - i.e. uploading here! The actual file size for this one as a 1600 x 1200 .bmp on my desktop is 1877KB. In 16 million colours it would be over 5000KB

How do you get your icons to go round the sides and along the top??
