Perhaps we don't see eye to eye on this. If Windows does not recognize the native file format, which it does not recognize the binary encoded .jpg's, then to change the file into something readable by the OS is, by my definition a conversion.

You are right, I did extract the files. However they must be converted into a format readable by Windows. So I did both.

No beef here, just conversation ;)

I see your point about these applications being able to read the file. You see my point that MOST Windows graphics apps, including Windows Picture and Fax viewer AND Internet Explorer just don't see the pics. It's not alot of work, but it is a conversion. I'm just telling the guy thanks...

Hope we've got that cleared up. ;)

Hey Guy, no offense - but if you don't remove this material from distribution (and I will be keeping an eye out for it) immediately both you and your ISP will be hearing from my lawyers. It states specifically (in the infos, legal notices and even on the images themselves) bundled with my interface stuff that these images are copyrighted materials created for real commercial clients prior to inclusion in my themes (and only placed there as kind of a nod to my illustration background - I don't own these images, but retain rights to use them for my own self-promotion - what you're doing doesn't fall into that category). There seems to be some confusion as to what constitutes fair use here, so just so you know - you're breaking the law. You cannot re-distribute these images out of context or without express written permission, so I advise you to remove all traces of them immediately.

For what it's worth, I'm not trying to be a hard-ass. I appreciate the enthusiasm and the props here... but I had to flip through some hoops to get this stuff included with the schemes in the first place - I am bound by the terms of my agreements with these clients to ask you to remove them immediately and to ultimately take legal steps to stop their distribution if it gets that far - I'm asking you to comply with my wishes. However, there is nothing stopping anybody from downloading the archives and using the wallpapers for their own personal use - it's just that things get sticky when you redistribute. Sorry =/

    • Yes for me, I installed 'old calculator' (Windows 7 calculator) in its place since it is more useful to me. I think paint is the only one I left installed
    • eh I'll wait for the June 2026 MVS ISO downloads which should be coming out next Tuesday June 16 and possibly contain build 8655 instead of 8653
