first ms_pammy u gotta take a shot of your desktop, to do this while on the desktop press printscreen button on your keybrd, then u got to paint and then paste it there (when u press print screen it adds it to the memory so u can paste it) after that save it, but as u can see u just saved it as a .bmp, which is HUGE and isn't worth it. To change it to a .jpg, open up imaging or photoshop, and press save as and save it as a .jpg. Once u have the .jpg, u have to upload it to your webspace (im assuming u know how to do this)...after that once the file is up at the webspace u put it up like this

it should show up

ms_pammy,

I believe your link isn't working because the page that your picture is on needs to have a user name and password to access it.

Regards,

DIDS

IndyOST · Post by **IndyOST** » Sat Jan 20, 2001 7:33 am

Hey, that program he used to change the look of his explorer is called window blinds. You can get the program here.

Never tried that one before. I did a edit on Explorer.exe and changed mine. It now says DIDS. I will check that program out though. Thanks for the reply.

What if I were to tell you that I made it? Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of skill, I could send it to you or you can go dig through www.skinz.org thats where I get all my stuff, winamp skins, wallpapers, icons, and so on.

YARDofSTUF · Post by **YARDofSTUF** » Mon Jan 22, 2001 3:07 am

rbrscia, what did u use to do that?

------------------

rbrescia · Post by **rbrescia** » Mon Jan 22, 2001 3:15 am

yardostuf which thing, the desktop is windowblinds and the transparent menu is windowfx, I've been messing around with desktopX which totally changes windows but haven't finished that on yet.

------------------

colour · Post by **colour** » Mon Jan 22, 2001 4:04 am

I used to use windowblinds, litestep, and my favorite TALISMAN. But they pretty much wasnt worth the hassel, windowblinds is a memory hog and isnt very stable, litestep is awsome but if you dont know what youre doing its hard to edit the interface to your liking, talisman well it runs along side of the windows shell so whats the point?
---
stardock.com <- windowblinds
lightek.com <- talisman
litestep.net <- litestep
---
try em out for yourself...

YARDofSTUF · Post by **YARDofSTUF** » Mon Jan 22, 2001 4:17 am

where do i get windowfx?

I have litestep too, its ok, but i only use it for important stuff

All the windows editing looks cool, bu tit slows down the system too much!

What do you mean? I dont have window blinds.

I did mine by using this tweak from Regedit.

------------------

rbrescia · Post by **rbrescia** » Mon Jan 22, 2001 11:06 am

I don't know about that colour, windowblinds takes up 1336K and fx takes up 2776K, I've used blinds for a year and find it very stable and no i don't have any system lag using any of these. I have 160mb ram.
