Well I thought I would be the first one to do this since a lot of the world has already welcomed 2006 and a thread hasn't been started.

We all know the rules but here they are anyway:

* Stay within the board rules, no matter how yummy you may believe it to be.

* If you are going to quote, there isn't a need to quote an img-embedded picture - Just don't do it. Please just reference the post by page number/page link/etc.

* Off Topic Posts will be edited or removed.

* The desktops thread is not to be used as a means to post images of a pornographic or otherwise provocative nature. We do not support a babes forum and neither will we in an unofficial capacity. Please help to keep the thread relevant and safe to browse for everyone.

* The moderators of this forum reserve the right to edit or remove your posts as necessary so they may comply with our Community Ruleset.

Wait this has to be posted by a mod!

Doesn't have to be posted by a mod.....just has to be pinned by one. I sent them a PM about it. Many months has an ordinary member started this thread and a mod has come along and pinned it.

Oompa can you tell me what program and how you got setup that transparent bar at the bottom of your screen with the weather, stats? Id like to set that up.

As well, is that standard Windows command prompt or another program?

It's a Samurize Script. It's Console.

what can i do. My desktop is bigger than 1024 kb and cant upload it at imageshack. any place else?

Download "IrfanView" and save it again as a jpeg.

Same as always, I will never find something better.

Is that the wallpaper creating that drop shadow or something else?

Can I have that wallpaper either way?
