* Off Topic Posts will be edited or removed. Please support our rule set no matter how yummy you think your desktop is.

* 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 Rules.

* In the interests of keeping the thread on topic it is strongly urged that you format your posts in the following order:

Themes: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

Wallpaper: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

Icons: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

Programs: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

* Please use reduced-size thumbnails, where possible, out of respect for people running on lower bandwidth or screen resolutions.

Important Note: Any image posted that is over the established guidelines will be removed! Use a thumbnail or use a text link to your image. If your image is removed, this is why.

This is for everyone that asks for the wallpaper.

Not much different than last month, just the center monitor. Somewhat modified version of the stock Aero, pulled all the blue bits out of the toolbars and crammed them into the shadows instead.. kind of liked that from KDE so why not. Was poking around in the Linux screenshot thread, was bored, so why not, whipped up a little program to do a similar thing, just because.

Cool! How did you do that in your terminal? Can you upload your script/how to? Thanks!

It's just a quickie little C# program (my Python is awful) that pulls info from a couple sources, much of which is already provided by the platform.. the System.Diagnostics.PerformanceCounter namespace for resource usage stats, queried the server service for uptime, query the registry for the shell then get the file version, etc. Think the most time spent was getting the stupid Windows logo to align properly lol. It's not ready for public usage (IE, it's spaghetti code I whipped up before I was even awake and embarrassing), I can put it somewhere later once I clean it up sure. Doesn't fit into the default console size either.. should probably have it check for that and do it top-to-bottom if it's not wide enough.

Ok. LOL! Let me know when it's all patched up. :) I'd love to have something like that.

It's been AGES since I posted in a Desktops thread... I thought it was about time!

    • Tor Browser 15.0.17 by Razvan Serea Protect your privacy. Defend yourself against network surveillance and traffic analysis. Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. The Tor software protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody from watching your Internet connection and learning what sites you visit, it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location, and it lets you access sites which are blocked. The Tor Browser Bundle lets you use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser to protect your anonymity, and is self-contained. Tor Browser 15.0.17 changelog: All Platforms Updated Tor to 0.4.9.11 Updated NoScript to 13.6.25.1984 Build System / All Platforms Bug tor-browser-build#41821: Update gpg subkeys for boklm Bug tor-browser-build#41827: Update morgan's keychain with renewed key Download: Tor Browser (64-bit) | Tor Browser (32-bit) | 109.0 MB (Open Source) View: Tor Browser Website | Other Operating Systems Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Very fitting name since AI users have air where there brains should be.
    • Yes, it was amusing at the time because even then dbrand was well known for stealing the designs of products from other companies. That’s what they do.
