XP_01 Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 If you would have bothered to look at the windows desktop thread, you'd have noticed the rules are EXACTLY the same as this thread, with the exception of the resolution size. 585201613[/snapback] I did bother, why are the resolutions so limited? Almost nobody uses 800x600 anymore... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliott Posted January 1, 2005 Share Posted January 1, 2005 I did bother, why are the resolutions so limited? Almost nobody uses 800x600 anymore... 585210114[/snapback] I use 1024x768. My browser screen won't fit 800x600 very well (especially with the extra borders and padding and whatnot that Neowin uses. 1024x768 is still widely used, especially on Macs because of 12" PowerBooks and iBooks.

Just something I'd like to know because I've read something about those "problems" when using transparant menubars. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digitaljames Posted January 2, 2005 Share Posted January 2, 2005 how do you make them transparent? :blush: 585212556[/snapback] By making the menubar elements have 90% transparency in photoshop and then importing them with Themepark..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad Posted January 3, 2005 Author Share Posted January 3, 2005 That's why I don't understand why the resolutions in this thread are limited to 800x600 when they're 1024x768 in the (Windows) Desktop thread. 585211112[/snapback] Why so people argue with rules when they are clearly for their or someone elses benefit?
