Also, nice copy of limewire you've got there Ryder.

And what's up with all these copies of Vista with Mac themes?

Well the only reason i have that is because i had to reinstall vista. Was gonna do XP but couldn't find the disk. Anyways i had the dock up the top before bt now since i have no stuff on the screen i figure it actually helps me keep it tidy.

Also I like the look of some MAC stuff not necessarily the way they run but i like the look. So i put it like that for a trial. I bet if you hated having the bar up the top all you would have to do is try it for a couple of days and it would look normal. Happened to me so y not you.

Hey Ryder, I noticed in that pic a picture of you with your hoodie and headphones on. I used to wear that style of headphones the same way until my wife showed me the "correct" way to wear them. The longer side is supposed to go behind your head. Seems weird I know, but that's how they were designed to be worn. Try it out, it makes sense. Just letting you know.

[bamhm182]

lol, you must have been staring at Ryder's picture for quite a while, I can't even see how he's wearing them when I'm trying to notice... Maybe my monitor's just really dark...

EDIT: You are talking about this one, right?

[VAMP]

Yup, that's the one. I just noticed because I used to wear mine the same way and when my wife told me how you're supposed to, it stuck with me for some reason...

It's old...oh and VAMP...I'm that certain percentage that didn't think carrot, I think out of the box, hence the ghetto whering of the PSP earphones hahaha...

I set out on a little mission when i got up this afternoon.

After waiting, i figured samestory was being totally bogart about the details of how he got his desktop lookin like he did, which does look pretty good. The desktop project is still work in progress, but ive done ok i think

I started out with one of the most boring desktops known to man, however, it matched the colour of my system and its just the way ive always had it.

First thing i did was to imitate vista with a few addon on packs, like themes and secondary programs that add functionality of Vista to my current XP OS, As well as a decent wallpaper.

After that was the hard slog of configuring the dock with my apps and games and so forth, which took a few hours. Remove the icons from desktop, configure more stuff -

Et Voila!



Peace

Can you do that on vista itself... If so you GOTTA tell me how man. You seriously have no choice. I Love it. hehe

Ive killed it man, im writing this in safe mode. I did give XP some flak with the sheer amount of installs and system cleanups i did, i dont think it likes me.
Doing what i did to XP? its not simple G, I think you should play with your lego
Plus, it wont get stickied and id write an essay for nothing

Peace
