Woah cool! Someone is still using the Neowin widget I made :D

Yeah, it continues to work even after Neowin made some big changes to the board.

BTW... Do you still work on the widget? What is the latest version?

It's actually the icon. You just click "get info", click the icon in the top left, and then just copy and paste an image in.

What size image do you use the picture as an icon? I went and found posters of the movies I have and just converted them to icons using Pixadex but it's distorted and unclear. Any specific way I should be doing it or at least a better way?

^ I just got the pictures off imdb that little size and then saved it as a png in photoshop then put it in pixadex and selected it and draged the file onto that drop thing and it turned out good, try imdb cause they got a size that seemed to work pretty nice for me. Also make your icons size in your movies folder (or where ever) the largest size.

I've used mac a few times and it's promising. If I ever get rich or get a job cause I am 16 and CAN work, I might buy a Mac Mini. They are nice, interface is clean too.

By the time you have enough money to buy the Mac mini, you might as well save up a little more and get the iMac. It's really much better, having a full computer in one compact casing.

its a lot easier to just copy a picture (into clipboard) and then paste on as icon...

no need to convert or anything.

    • This 4K webcam from Acer is now only $59.99 by Taras Buria Those looking for an affordable, high-resolution webcam from a reputable manufacturer can check out the latest deal from Acer, which puts its 4K webcam at a solid price. Thanks to a 14% discount, you can buy this all-metal 4K webcam from Acer for just $59.99. Despite the affordable price tag, the webcam has a pretty large 1/2" CMOS sensor manufactured by Sony. Apart from its size, it supports additional conveniences, such as high dynamic range and phase-detection autofocus (PDAF). Plus, the camera ensures you do not have to buy additional audio equipment, as it comes with two built-in high-sensitivity microphones, a built-in background noise filter, and the ability to pick up your voice from up to 2.5 meters away. Acer is not cheaping out on materials, and the webcam is enclosed in a more premium metal case, which is also good at heat dissipation (high-resolution cameras can get quite hot). And to make sure no one is peeping at you when the camera is in use, there is a magnetic cover also made of metal. Additional conveniences include an LED status indicator and a built-in mount that lets you place a camera on a tripod.
