c?mon people, kee it simple, DAMMIT!!!! >

Did I go A.W.O.L.? Yea, I guess I did... I even jumped on the latest "theme bandwagon." G'dam I hate myself...:(( Well SD, I'll prob be back in a while. No real theme lasts long on my box-I seem to always go back to Hacked Classic V3

Mine is pretty darn plain... the only thing i changed from silver theme is made the title bars 23 pixels instead of 25 so they arent as thick. I've used other themes but i always seem to come back to this one. My desktop is 1440x1080 resolution but i scaled this down to 1024x768 for easier viewing.. 70k

I use aim+ with all of the menus/tabs off and winamp 2.8 base skin. I just installed norton or i'd be even more plain.

In order across the bottom is show desktop, explroer, IE, Outlook XP(for POP mail), outlook express for hotmail, flashFXP, winamp, adobe photoshop 7, and a text file to store random notes/info

Who knows, it's cool that way ha. I just switched it to the dropshadow actually... i cant remember why i switched. I think with a different background i used to use i couldnt see it without the background color. I just made that one a few days ago though

You know you can use Outlook XP for hotmail, right?

Yes, but it is much slower for retrieving mail, and plus then i can have my hotmail and regular email entirely seperate instead of having 2 inboxes in outlook XP. Outlook express does hotmail faster because it doesnt bring up as much interface stuff, just the messages.

EDIT: I just tried it again and it actually isnt as slow as i remember ;)

Translation:

respect us as we respect u

la palabra b@stardos fue agregada por el, yo lo inicie con una inocente frase que dise: kee it simple, DAMMIT y no fue dirigada por falta de respeto, la frase empezo hace mucho tiempo con un amigo y yo en otras circusntancias, en este caso lo aplico por que me gustan mas los escritorios simplistas, de todos modos, creo que no es un ataque tener una frase asi en el escritorio, tambien me disculpo en nombre de blackcloud

Theme - FatalE by KoL

Icons - iPlatinum by KoL

Wallpaper - DeviantART strangly NOT by KoL

Are the 'computer' and 'network' icons also iPlatinum by Kol? I haven't seen them in his set. Or are they from somewhere else? Linkage? :D

    • We had no idea as kids how much time and energy it took to be an adult 😅
    • The Trump administration doesn't want you to use OpenAI's GPT-5.6 without its approval by David Uzondu Image via @realDonalTrump (X) As OpenAI prepares the release of its next model, GPT 5.6, the White House has instructed the company to limit the distribution of the software to a small group of government-approved partners instead of the general public, as it has done with previous releases. According to The Information, OpenAI Chief Executive Officer Sam Altman sent an internal memo to staff on Thursday explaining that the federal government will approve access "customer by customer" during an initial preview phase. Altman noted in the communication that this restrictive rollout is "not [their] long-term model" for software deployment, and the company plans to work toward a "more sustainable" distribution method later. CNN said that both OpenAI and the Trump administration view the capabilities of GPT 5.6 on the same level as Anthropic's Mythos and that government officials intend to "collaborate with frontier AI labs to develop shared approaches for addressing the challenges of scaling this technology." The latest restriction comes just weeks after the US Commerce Department decided to restrict Fable, a version of Mythos with extra safety "guardrails" to prevent users from exploiting software vulnerabilities. Not long after the release, though, researchers at Amazon found a way to bypass these restrictions, prompting an aggressive response from federal authorities. The government ordered Anthropic to cut off access for non-US citizens located outside the US, non-US citizens living inside the US, and incredibly, even Anthropic's own foreign-born employees. Anthropic now appears to be building a workaround to resolve this compliance block with an update to its Privacy Policy that introduces a category called "Verification Data" to handle KYC and Digital IDs. This setup could mandate digital identity checks to filter users by nationality, requiring a government-issued ID and facial biometric data. Who knows? Maybe in the future, you would have to scan your US Passport or State ID to prove your citizenship before you are allowed to chat with Fable 5 (or any other model).
    • When Windows 7 was released I created an AutoHotkey script that uses Alt+` as a keyboard shortcut to move a window across monitors. I have been using that script for over 15 years and this is the first time I have come across another app that uses the same shortcut!
    • I called it last year that they wouldn't end support when they said there would. There are too many people still on Windows 10 waiting for something better to upgrade to and 11 ain't it! The recent promises of fixing Windows 11's many problems is nice, but unless they deliver on those promises in a big way then I expect customers will still want to stick with 10.
