Title: Post your desktop. (*warning-Big pics)
Post by: nO-One on May 28, 2001, 09:16:21 AM: It\'s been a while since I saw one of these threads here.And I like to see other peoples workplaces.

So here are mine

Just the desktop

(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Falbums.photopoint.com%2Fj%2FView%3Fu%3D1700901%26a%3D13065196%26p%3D49330320%26Sequence%3D0%26res%3Dhigh&hash=f7ed22bb93e360456224d2f5b3f6ba173b06d59d)

And here I have an open window.
(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Falbums.photopoint.com%2Fj%2FView%3Fu%3D1700901%26a%3D13065196%26p%3D49330317%26Sequence%3D0%26res%3Dhigh&hash=ca84c63a4092a82368b3280f2d273e88347eefe1)

As you can see I have a MacOS look.I use WindowBlinds to do this but there are a few other programs out there which do the same.
And I\'m running Win2k pro as my main OS

*edit* Stupid Photopoint won\'t let me post this in it\'s full 1280x1024 glory :rpissed:.Maybe someone else could post these pics for me if they want them full size.
But I hope this is enough :(

Anyhoo post your desktops people :)

Post by: ajoh432 on May 28, 2001, 09:23:55 AM: does that website above the pictures, let you take pictures of your desktop?....... I\'ll go and check myself..... My desktop just has a picture of Silent Hill from the official website... well I\'ll try to put a pic...
Title: Post your desktop. (*warning-Big pics)
Post by: Hawke on May 28, 2001, 09:40:01 AM: Ah, one of these threads again... I see you still haven\'t changed your background pic nO-One :)

ajoh : PhotoPoint.com doesn\'t let you take pictures, but store and share them (I\'m using their service too, since none of my free website providers let me directly link pictures).

My desktop... bah, you don\'t wanna see it, I still got that MGS2 one :p I really should start making some new wallpapers again...

Post by: nO-One on May 28, 2001, 09:52:18 AM: I tried to change my style sometime back.Tried all black.Tried WindowsXP look.Tried OS X and tried BeOS.But I am just in love with my MacOS 8/9,x theme.

I do like the BeOS UI but I like the Mac UI more.

I just don\'t like change I suppose

I\'m just pissed off because no image hosting service seems to let me post it full size.Ohh god how I miss post my pic.com :(

Post by: ajoh432 on May 28, 2001, 09:59:30 AM: I\'ll just explain mine to you all...... it\'s this picture of the main character in SH where he\'s facing a mirror.... here\'s a link right to the picture http://www.kcetokyo.com/sh2/ I think that picture looks really good on my desktop.... I got a question...... How come I can\'t post that picture in my post..... it all ways says file size to big but there\'s no way to make it smaller....... I tried to post that picture..... but noooooo....

Post by: nO-One on May 28, 2001, 10:06:48 AM: You must use the [ img] tags like this
[ img] the url goes here [/img]

Check out the vB codes >>here (http://194.47.16.181/forums/misc.php?s=&action=bbcode)<<

And for those who don\'t know how to take screen shots of their desktops just press Print screen on your keyboards,then open Paint (or some other image editing program Photoshop,Paint Shop Pro etc..) and paste the image (Ctrl+V) then save.

This concludes our screenshot lesson for today,remember to do your homework kids :p

Post by: nO-One on May 28, 2001, 10:26:43 AM: You can\'t post from you hard disk ;)

You must have some image hosting service (Stupid Photopoint :rpissed: )

Or you can post an image from some site.

Ohh and I\'d use .jpg instead of .bmp,better compression thus more web friendly

just wondering because you have so many files and yet i have less than half and almost have 4 gigs of songs with just 800 songs - but i have a lot of those long techno songs so i guess that explains why

Nah, it\'s quite a change of pace from the original windows. I can see why it would be annoying, but like you said,. @ higher res it doesn\'t look bad. The extra little touches and detail that it has makes it look kinda neat.

It\'s supposed to. But to tell the truth I haven\'t seen that option. Maybe it\'s not in my build.

Ohh well I\'ll find it somewhere,how big is the installation file?

You need to get the entire CD. (~650mb)

And how is the software compatability? (damn I have alot of questions)

The only program I haven\'t been able to use is Easy-CD Creator. Everything else seems to be the same as 2k. (compatibility wise) .. Nothing has crashed on me either.

It\'s based on the same kernel and it has the same file system.Do you have to do a complete re-install of win2k,or can you revert back to it.

I heard something about reverting back to 2k after 6 months of use.

If you are going to quote someone that posted a pic, the least you could do is remove the pic from the post. The pic is way too big and messes up the alignment of the page, and putting it in a quote screws up the page even more. Be considerate of other people on here.

Post by: nO-One on May 30, 2001, 01:28:21 PM: They do know that this is a bandwidth intense thread.

But they\'re talking about quoting someone with a big pic and not removing the pic is useless.You need to scroll more and the pic takes more bandwidth and we\'ve already seen the pic.

but there\'s no need to get upset,remember you can always edit. :)

Go download AfterBurner you can get it at http://www.palmgear.com,it\'s an overclocking tool I had mine running at 30Mhz and it was alot faster.I got some benchmarking tool and the only one that was faster was the Visor Platinum,but that is the fastest Palm ever.

It showed results in percentige,I went from 97% to 162% :eek:
It should speed up that emulator.I my self will either be getting an iPaq,or maybe I\'ll get the new iBook that little thing kicks ass.

Yes I still play it..

Mostly with bots. (Im waiting for my ADSL connection!)

But when I finally get my new 512kbit connection Ill play it online.. (when I start playing I cant stop, so with dailup it can get pretty expensive) :)

Sorry, I dont have AIM nor AOL..
But I got ICQ :) (my icq number is in my info)
