Awesome XcOM!
Nice will be following that tut later.
Only problem i see is the ugly blue and green theme. I change mine too much but ah well, my theme is a hacked msstyles so no extra programs required just like a normal windows theme.
And my minimal background cus i felt like making a cool but simple background.
Terragen FTW.Quote:

Soo many programs kills this hard drive, might uninstall some of the Macromedia suite as i don't use Freehand MX or Fireworks that often. But Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Imageready, Dreamweaver and Flash get alot of working. Just realised After Effects is on there and that was only a 30 day trial uninstalled last year, stupid windows lol.
Anyone got a wallpaper for 1440x900? Got a 20" widescreen Ben-Q
I need something 5120*1024. (no I'm not kidding) Any suggestions?
Google images this:
5120 x 1024 wallpaper
and see what comes up.
:edit: Just did that, not much came up. What did was from matrox.com.
How about making your own?
Get a mahoooosive pic and crop to suit?
Or a not so big one, resize and crop to suit?
I'm running 1440 x 900 now, and got a 1024 x 768 I liked, resized it so it was 1440 wide and cropped the top and bottom off to 900.
Works for me.
Why do you have 4 monitors! Can you send me some lol.Quote:

Hey Scotty, how did you import the textures you made to Terragen? I'm on my mom's computer right now so I can't try it yet, but do you just make the texture, and choose some option in the program? And what makes the best result, just natural colors in a texturized manner?
heh heres my new desktop..... its been resized.... but the actual res is 3200x1200
im running ubuntu ultimate 1.3 now... it totaly PWNs...
Ubuntu ultimate 1.3 ...? Is that something new. *goes to do a google search*Quote:

OMFG,,,,WAFFLE, Ubuntu Ultamate has everything i want from linux. Plus more, no more needing to mess about with terminal to get things to work, there already here!!!!
YAY
/Thanking for introducing me to ubuntu ultimate.
lolz np... i found it by fluke... its awsome... comes with everything preloaded.... and its simple to try it out... pop it in the drive... and load up the live cd feature... if u dont like it... meh toss the disc.... if u do... u can install it while still using the live cd
I'm going to try and download the ubuntu ultimate gamers edition. I never wanted to try ubuntu because i thought it would be hard to find software. Problem solved i guess.

That is cool, nice effect. I would have never guessed that was a photo.
I've seen stuff like that on Make: It's cool sh**. BTW, Can you like upload the actual BG onto imageshack or something? That's a cool pic i'd like to use it!
Theres loads like that on DeviantART, i've wanted to do some but i need a camera thats decent.
Here's my first contribution to this page. Hope you like it :D

I can't remember if it was an image search with google or yahoo, or if it was from 4chan.Quote:

Me= Red Dwarf Fan :D I found this background on some German site couldn't understand the website lol but i liked the background.. I also edited it in paint i added the bottom bit " I am Holly this ships computer, with an IQ of 6000, the same IQ as 6000 PE teachers." :twisted: Also forget about all the icons they stock up every couple of months i cant get rid of them i always seem to get more lol.. This is my 19" screen my other screen has more icons.
Cheers
Sam
Icon happy?
Mines full about 2/3 full!!!!!!
I clear it it about every month
Yeh Soon i will make a folder called "Old Desktop" and bonk that somewhere on my desktop now with all my old stuff. I moved the icons so you could read the picture though :)
The icons on my desktop are located (most of them anyways) on the outer edges, with a few in the middle region in places they look good. Yeah, that's me, the guy all about aesthetics, until it comes to something that isn't to do with the computer, lol.
I've done away with all my icons. I switched my shell to Aston :)
i would use aston but can't find a relly nice theme/shell i like
Not sure if you found that Rozen Maiden wallpaper yet. I found it, but you have to be a member to view it. It is only 1280x1024 too...Quote:

I'll keep searching though.
Just the source, but there's nothing else interesting on my desktop (aside from that fact that it's normally covered with iTunes, lolifox, and some other stuff)
my laptops new setup.... catalyst theme with modified pink floyd wallpaper
I'm loving the background.
I've posted here before, but heres my new Vista background:
one i had a week ago
one i have now
not quite what I'd call NSFW, but it's risky.
it's a thumbnail, btw.
