Olog-hai Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 Hey all, Any of the clever type people ;) here able to come up with a visual style or active desktop that would look something like this? Yes it is very "candy" like, but it could also be very functional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinal Phantasm Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 If I'm not mistaken, wasn't that a pic of what Blackcomb was gonna look like? Also, if I'm not mistaken, it was proven to be fake and as far as I know (and I've looked) it can't be made... sorry, I seem to be of no help! hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greenreaper Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 Heh. Yeah, that's a DesktopX theme. Maybe you could do some of that with Active Desktop and an .msstyle. With a lot of work. Probably not much of it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemo Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 it would be hard to pull off those curves.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y_notm Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 it would be impossible w/ .msstyles to make that theme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romsi Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 Originally posted by y_notm it would be impossible w/ .msstyles to make that theme WHAT exactly is impossible: Taskbar ..... nothing special StartMenu .... round corners are a bit tricky but it's possible Favorites ..... don't depend on the mystyle file. U can use some kind of html based background image to make it. Popup menues ..... possible. I won't see any problems, except I don't like the layout :D :D :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osiris Posted January 29, 2002 Share Posted January 29, 2002 After the Active Desktop I have got going now, I could make this for you in my sleep. Not bosating it couild just be easily made. But why you would want to is beyond me, it looks like MSN on crack for a 10yr olds desktop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whack Posted January 30, 2002 Share Posted January 30, 2002 looks simple enough with maybe the exception of the startmenu but the rest seems easy enough and it could also be done in litestep with out too much work and litestep copy would be really low on memory useage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
