The Semi Non-Official "Post Your Desktop" Thread (56K Warning!!)

It's easy just lick the prt scr button on your keyboard while on your desktop, open paint, paste it, save it, and upload it using imageshack, photobucket, etc. And we can rate other member's desktops.

Does OB work on XP and WindowsBlinds cost money right?

Hey RG, I always wanted to get into Linux but I dont get whats thedifference btwn Linux and Windows.

[The Driver]

Im not sure if they work, you will have to look around.

And they do cost money...

I have Object Dock and I love the customization of it especially custom icons. The thing is I have a folder where i keep my important saves from my R4 and I want to add it to the dock but it wont let me.

The core difference between windows and linux is that Linux is legally free and you are free to change parts of the OS.

A good article on what linux is can be found at http://www.linux.com/whatislinux/

[Nova]

Im not that much of a techy. So is there already pre made ones I could use?

[Vipershark]

Aah, Objectdock. A great program. i use it myself.

No SC for now, however.

I like linux. A good one to try is called Ubuntu, Nova. Download a Live CD of it.

Or rather: http://www.zegeniestudios.net/ldc/index.php?lang=en

That should help you.

I took that quiz and got these to choose from openSUSE, ubuntu, freespire, and Mandriva

Which should I pick. Also does anyone know if the Zune supports Linux, cuz if it doesnt then I cant use it

[Redgore]

Out of that list I would say Mandriva but only because I am fauirly deep rooted in the Mandriva community.

Im not sure on iof the Zune is usable in linux but I would think so. It would be a matter of using your favourite search engine to find out the zune support.

[Vipershark]

I highly suggest Ubuntu. Freespire is pretty cool, but I haven't tried the other two yet. I'm thinking about getting a Live CD of openSUSE next.

As for Zune... Do OS'es even run on it?

[Nova]

I read there is a way. heres the article here (http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-on-linux-via-vmware.html)

It seems complicated. ill prob wait till there is more support for Zune on Linux

[Invader_gir]

It resized a fair bit but the computer that I'm on at the moment: here's the desktop

http://img519.imageshack.us/img519/441/desktopew2.png

Go to your OD configuration, make a new shortcut docklet, and then right click it, edit its properties, and set the shortcut to your folder.

Isn't that one of the best looking race cars ever?

[Cid Highwind]

Well, since mine is animated I had to make a short vid on youtube, although I adjusted the theme's colour to suit the background now, so it's also ice-blue, but too lazy to re-up a vid of that so be happy with this one ;)

Furthermore, I dont know, I just love the wallpaper I found, it shows so much, beauty, majesty, mystery.

Edit* I added the wallpaper pic here, it doesn't look that great on Youtube, so the Youtube movie is just for the animation.
hmm C/D changed the resolution of this pic to something smaller so it was attachable.

[Nitrous]

@Driver: Nice background that mate, a few good wallpaper pics on the aston martin website as well

[Nova]

How did you get those animations Cid. also change mine..
