I like the whats on tv.;) How do you do that?

Dupre 13-07-2003 02:15

samurize, and just takes some minor scripting, you can also add in sky channels. but i havent had time to get it sorted, and with limited room...

also thinkin about changing the OSX bar at the bottom to just one long taskbar.

Martin 13-07-2003 02:24

Looks really good:) I'm going to have a tinker its a must have.

Dupre 13-07-2003 02:33

:) the File Menu and OSX bar are part of Object Desktop, the TV bits are samurize.

Hey, one for you mac users out there. One of the guys at work (a Uni) got a new 17" powerbook, and set the wallpaper as the fishtank screensaver. It didn't take up any noticable processor power, and all of the apps were running fine. From what I can gather, with a little 3rd party software, you can get any screensaver to run as wallpaper.

For what it's worth, my work mac has all of the previous and current Tomb Raider movie pics, randomly changing every 60 secs.

Indeed you can. You can also choose a photoshop image as wallpaper if you like. Versatile things, Macs ... ;)

Heh! I tried the desktop screensaver trick on my creaky old G3/500 PowerBook. I had to SSH in from my Windows box and kill the process as the PowerBook became completely unresponsive. I guess it couldn't handle Flurry as the desktop picture :D
