Hi guys...

Well what should i say this forum is full of all the guru's and mahaguru's of the Bootable World.

Amist all the tensions and worries i thought we could have an interesting time discussing something abt ourselves and guess what our DESKTOP's.

Desktop's reveals how a person thinks and works on his PC.. (atleast a little hint).

BTW :- How do you add the jpg pic from ur pc to this forum.. i'm getting an an error "Sorry, dynamic pages in the [IMG] tags are not allowed"

Please help me and post a pic of your desktop's..

Hope u like the idea..

Bye,
Jassi

If you want to get yours up, e-mail me at jeffrey * the-wasp.co.uk
Change the * to a @ and remove spaces (anti-spam).

EDIT: Updated, added wallpaper, removed non-windowblinds version.
EDIT2: Now using img tag.
EDIT3: Picture removed because it's horribly out of date and I'm working on my website.
jassi
Well jef somewhere in this forum i saw some pics posted in the threads too..

So i thought that it might be possible for everyone to upload them..

Well if it isnt then i guess along with the upgradation of the softwares we could also have some great time upgrading the forum.. !!

@doctor XP

IS it possible for you to make some privelages for the users to upload some images.. (it could also be screenshots of the error messages biggrin.gif )
on the forum along with the normal text ????

Anyways JEF my screenshot is 175Kb so i guess you wont have a hard time uploading it biggrin.gif I would send it to your msn mail account if you want !!

Please let me know.

Bye,
Jassi
Jef
You could, but it'll take some time then. I just got some email from 17 days ago...
Also my (free)mail provider is migrating and stuff. They send a bulk mail that everyone would get a new adress, more space and new options.

You could send it over MSN/AIM sometime, but not the e-mail adress please.
jassi
Well JEF actually i think that my idea was crap...

I mean that even if you woul do me the favour no one actually would take time to visit my desktop !!!

Unless it exists on the forum threads itself !!

So probably i think ideas like these will have to wait until the forum incorporates the facility of displaying images on the forum threads..

So lets wait and watch ! biggrin.gif

Anyways thank you very much for your kind support and friendly help !! laugh.gif

Jassi

You mean something like this?
http://gathering.tweakers.net/forum/list_m...messages/763426

warning: over 500MB RAM usage..

38 forum threads about desktop pictures, including the originals.
Jef
With some MAJOR thanks to TheWasp here, I got a new adress.
jeffrey (dollar, at-sign actually*) the-wasp.co.uk should be able to accept stuff, and i'll gladly host.

Main provider still is having problems sad.gif I hope those troubles are sorted soon. I don't look forward to changing all my e-mail adresses on every site.

*me no like spam.
jassi
Well hi bernd..

I actuall dint understand a thing on the page you linked... I speak only english biggrin.gif

Besides what is it actuall on the page ?? Different desktop pics of the users of this forum or what ??

Anyways if you think that this idea is a crap (which i guess it is) then please let me know..

Maybe i've asked for too much this time rolleyes.gif

Anyways where there is a will there is a way laugh.gif

Bye,
Jassi.

BTW:- whats all that 500 mb RAM you were talking abt ??
Jef
It's dutch (my language), it's the "official" thread to post desktops. They created it because the "rate-my-desktop" things where flooding the forum.

There are some useful links in there on the top.

Also, I like this idea. For those wondering how:
1) Set your Windows up. Just as you like it.
2) Start>run>mspaint
3) Press control+v
4) Save it. You should save it as a JPG. If you can't, zip/rar it before sending.
5) Make a post here saying you send it. I'll check the mail. Use jeffrey biggrin.gif the-wasp.co.uk or jeffreyboxmeer1 biggrin.gif dolfijn.nl
6) I'll PM you the link.
7) Edit your post with the link.
8) Have fun. Or not. Or whatever.
jassi
Hey dude youre really very SWEET biggrin.gif

Well i'm sending you mail in your hotmail account..

I hope thats all right with you rolleyes.gif

Bye,
Jassi

BTW :- what exactly is your hotmail address... ???
TheWasp
dudes so your setting up a website all about your desktops? well i guess we are all diffrent, good luck with the site and hope your successfull.

TheWasp
Jef
I don't have a hotmail adress, nor do I want one (too slow). Haven't got any mail on any adress I have (don't bother resending, someone else did and I got it thrice when it finally arrived).

I'm not setting up a site, just hosting the images and giving links around here. I can't build sites (properly, I know the a,br,b,i,u tags and that's about it). Besides, it's just my storage place, i'm working on a real blog-site with other stuff. I keep some archives from another forum there too.
Free hosting as well, might want to check it out.
jassi
Hmm.. does that mean that i can mail you or i cant..

And if yes where should i do it ???

Please let me know abt it !!

Bye,
Jassi

Very nice. DesktopX or a alternative shell?
jassi
Thank You very very much JEF !!!!!

Hey world here's my desktop !!!



Please let me know if you like it biggrin.gif biggrin.gif

briandugas
I love it, but where are the Icons?
How did you get that? Is it a backgroud picture?
Jef
Probably LiteStep. It is a alternative shell, it completely replaces your desktop (start menu as well).

There are other alternatives as well, such as bluebox.
jassi
Well there may be many other alternatives... But i'm using DesktopX to get my desktop that funky !!!

You can get the desktopx theme as well as the windowsblinds theme and icons all all the suite at www.wincustomize.com .

The skins name is Sputnik and maybe its made by Treetog !!!..

Have a look at it and i'm sure you wont regret !!!

Bye,
Jassi
briandugas
does it use any more or less memory than the windows shell?
Jef
More. DesktopX "just" enhances explorer.

LiteStep replaces it completely and takes way less.
