I forget what this one is called but it has been nicknamed the fu** off Nebula :D
Makes a good desktop I think :D

Edit: BTW this is an artist conception of real Nebula ;) (i.e. for those that still dont get it, this nebula actually exists ;) )

LOL, i like it :D where are your icon's, are they on auto hide on the task bar ??

i need an avril one.............

So get one, customise it and give us a look :wavey:

true but i dont know how to

NOOB here :p :wavey:

Find your pic, give me a " nod " as to what you would like to do and i'll try and help ya :D

EDIT:- all the icons you see work and you can do sooooo much more like clocks cpu usage ram usage disk space etc etc

how do i post my desktop on here?

click the print screen key, then open paint , edit > paste > size to suit and then just as you would normally

ok ill see what there is and ill send you a pm if i want to go ahead thanks bop :)

dont think cpu ram usage is a prob for my pc :p :p :p

ok, heres an example of the different " scripts " you can have, all working updating constantly, sorry for the bigg pic mods, just wanted a good image so as to show what can be done

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/mark.jo...images/sam.jpg

dude i want that l337 script to the right :D :D :D

right got desktop in paint. now how do i post it so you can see it?

You will have to d\l and install a prog called samurize found here

Have a mess about \ read the FAQ takes a bit of faffing about but you'll get there soon

* in jap voice

* constipated

ahhhhhhh master thank you for teaching me :p :wavey:

The easyest way is to upload to your web space, once the get the url ( right click and copy to mouse )

next write your message \ post and click the IMG tag paste the url in and click ok

LOL...welcome :D Grasshopper you are young but you will learn....lol

how about i post as an attachment and you sort it out for me?

ok, do that and we can just look at the attachment :p

my desktop

Ok nice, but the same question to you as it was to ZrByte, where are your icons, are they on the task bar on auto hide ???

And what about your bin ???

i couldnt get my screen print to upload so i had to just send the basic pic that i downloaded and saved incase of change of desktop. i have others saved too but this is my fav.

Here's an old one of mine, I was just getting into the scripts when the prog took a mega tantrum..lol


http://homepage.ntlworld.com/mark.jo...s/desk%203.jpg

lol damn bop some cool backgrounds

night all

Yeah awsome, i'll give ya the links some time night :wavey:

Theres no Icons on my desktop because I cheated ;) I already had it in .jpg format so I just posted my background, I didnt realise we where supposed to be posting the whole thing.
Not that you guys are missing much, asside from the background Im just using the plain old default win 2k desktop settings.

LOL.. did not mean it that way, sorry. I am just interested to see to what lengths people are going to customise, I have taken the short cut arrows off using tweakui and have taken the recycle bin off desktop with the same. I've also swapped the icons as you can see, I will be adding some scripts tomorrow maybe a clock and some data stuff, we'll see.:)

When you save the image in paint, save it as a jpeg file so that it is much smaller. You will then be ok to upload it on dial-up.
HTH

attached mine - can't upload to webspace to put image on
:(

Now look here you clever lot!
You all know how dumb I am when it comes to doing ANYTHING with computers. Other than switching it on and cleaning it.
So if you click on this: http://www.harkphoto.com/gulf.jpeg
you can at least see the picture I'm using.
Anything else - way too complicated!
(Hope that's ok)
If you want anything else the instructions should be fit for a 3 year old! :)

is it healthy to have a star trek desktop? :erm:

Here's mine:)

The original of this valuable work of art may be yours for a snip, a mere £5000.

Hey Bop.... would love to have your config files for Samurize..... did you create it or d/l it?

D\l it here only works with win 2000 & xp, i'm having a few problems with the new version at the minute but am trying, have a go and see how you do :)

Here is my desktop..... I've resized it for quicker loading.

Hope this works :)

Anychance you wanna share yuor config files?? :D

I see, I think you and I are on different wave lengths, which post are we talking about :)

Yup :D

Mines in the attachment.
Nothing special really..

I use webshots for my desktops and it comes as part of the package. Get it HERE

Heres my old one done with samurize. Will be getting the new version soon and trying to better it :)

OK, here's ours ... we have a picture of the BBC Three blobs 'cos something about the way they're animated reminds us of our son... :spin:

Hey Towny, what's the app between System Preferences and Mail, and what's the one to the left of Photoshop in your Dock?

Next to mail is Route 66 UK & Ireland - the only route panner for Mac I've yet found. To the right of Photoshop is the Imageready app that comes free with it, a kind of slimmed-down photoshop with extra bits bolted on for preparing web graphics. To the right of that is Adobe Illustrator, and I haven't got a scooby how to use it yet :)

I like this one.

:smokin:

Does a desktop represents your character?
I do hope so...................................

;)

here's mine.

My desktop (at the moment)

The display looks cool. What programme is it?

Looks like samurize;)

Here's mine at the moment (trying to samurize to work at the mo but it's not playing ball :( )
http://homepage.ntlworld.com/irene.k...esktopJuly.JPG

Beer Xp , Is SP1 out for that yet lol

Here's mine

It's Samurize.

There will be a new version of it out soon.

I want some of that cool stuff, that is so good.

So how hard is this kind of thing to do then? I want a cool desk top.

I used to mess about with windowblinds and stuff, but then i realised, simple is better!

http://81.99.17.157/hello.JPG

I think KingPhoenix was after the actual .ini files for Samurize - the ones you've designed and created :)

They're amazing - and if you're feeling generous & sharing, it'd be appreciated, they're ace!

CaKe (who has no creativity and is still using the plain blue background for Windows XP :rolleyes: )

Hi, the easyier ones, ie time and date etc etc, are a piece of cake to do, the weather and tv are a lot more involved.


The examples you see here are from a previous version of Samurize and will not work on the new version. I am messing about at the moment with the new one and hope to have a new desktop soon..lol

Cheers I'll check it out

not a desktop as such...but checkout the setup.....
......someone has way to much time on thier hands....

Sweet, have been looking at the samurize web site, sounds a bit over my head but I'll have go, looks cool.

wups ... that's just Appleworks
:blush:

Hey towny whats the key stroke to take pictures of the desktop in mac os x, ive forgot:blush:

option-shift-3 takes the whole screen, opt-shift-4 allows you to select an area (these are the same as os9) or, go applications, open the utilities folder, and start the Grab appliction, which gives you further options.

:)

Thanks!!

Ill post my desktop soon

*resists urge to poke fun at complicated mac systems (tee-hee)
*know's it's silly to compare them to PC's anyway and doesn't want this to turn into a mac/pc battle cos they're both suited to their respective users :D

Must put my Windows 2003 desktop up somewhen

Here is mine, Please don't call the RSPCA its not a real gun:D

*resists urge to ask how you take a selective screenshot in Windows without using 3rd party software :D

Actually it's:

• Command-Shift-3 = Grab entire screen to a file on the desktop
• Command-Ctrl-Shift-3 = Grab entire screen to clipboard
• Command-Shift-4 = Grab selection of screen to a file (cursor changes to crosshair)
• Command-Ctrl-Shift-4 = Grab selection of screen to clipboard
• Command-Shift-4 followed by space = Grab window to a file (cursor changes to a camera and highlights window/menu under cursor - click mouse on highlighted window/menu)
• Command-Ctrl-Shift-4 followed by space = Grab window to clipboard

The Command key is the one with the Apple logo for those who don't know.

OK had a bit of a play with samurize etc and just to prove that even untalented people like me can use it:

Holy cow!:eek:

I love the yin-yang:)

My desktop is just the windows xp 'blue hills' pic. I can look at sights like that all day, very soothing:)
I have no apps or files on it apart from the wastebasket in one corner.

I've had a couple of request for my Samurize configs for my desktop setup, so I thought I would post them here.

I can never remember which is 'command' and which is 'option'. As a matter of fact I normally think of them as 'alt' and 'apple', seeing as that's what's actually written on them ...

And I never knew there were so many more options!!

tx Lew.

Heres my desktop. No room for sexy pics, a few too many icons!

How can you live with that? It would drive me 'round the bend:p
I have have no icons on my desk top at all, nice and neat.

Why don't you group everything into folders? Ie all pics to My Pics Folder and all your txt files into another and lump them all in my documents?

I keep meaning to tidy it up never get round to doing it. Maybe I'll take the plunge one day.

stillhaving trouble posting mine :( doesnt work with a zip either

got about 5 differant screen shots too ahh well n/m

Do a screen shot then paste it into Paint, then save as JPEG should do it.:)

well, here is mine, but for some reason the screenshot doesnt capture the samurize scrips i got on the top right? :confused:

http://www.masterlymayhem.com/pictur...eenShot001.bmp

ive got all the screenshots done, its just not posting them right .... ie when you go to view the picture ive posted it doesnt load right ie 90% of the picture is missing :/

Right had a play and this is the new one. Dead simple and plain.
