I'll post mine sometime. But imageshack isn't behaving so I can't right now.

I think I'll be sticking with linux, I spent far too long on CS:S and I really need to get away from that game.

Um, you know you can play CS:S in Linux right?

Not much of a CS fan, but CS, HL2 and steam run great with cedega.

But you have to pay for cadega don't you? I've found an article on how to get it run using WINE once. I got half way through and then sutff happened in life so I had no time.

You can compile Cedega from CVS, it lacks safedisc and other cd copyright protections but it works FINE with Steam.

Ok, thanks. I'll definately look into that.

In the meantime, going to take a screeni once I get everything sorted and try to post it here.

@ Mindburnt, I'll edit this post with link info in a bit. It's on deviantart, if I can't find it I'll upload it.

@ aka5ha, It's an option in ubuntu, right click on the bar, properties, then use 'solid colour' but move tranparency to full so the solid colour doesn't show up.

edit: mindburnt I'll pm you with a link to it as I've edited it so it didn't have the copyright on and I can't find it on deviantart again.

Changelog: Floating 'Dynamic Island' Window Controls The window controls have been redesigned for a cleaner interface.

Auto-Centering Scroll: Selecting a thumbnail triggers a smooth scrolling animation that aligns the item to the center of the bar. Visual Refinements: Corrected visual gaps when pinned, fixed zoom anchor offsets, and restored smooth horizontal auto-scrolling. Dual-Mode Slideshow Spotlight Mode: Added a slideshow mode inspired by Picasa Spotlight, which dims the background and focuses on the active image. Normal Mode: Standard fullscreen slideshow functionality. Fully Customizable Hotkeys Custom Keyboard Mapping: Added support for completely customizing and rebinding all core keyboard shortcuts and navigation hotkeys directly within the Settings menu. UI/UX Adjustments & Window Snapping Magnetic Snapping (#90): Window borders now snap to screen edges (100% magnetic snap) when resized.

    • There was a Spider-Man game back in the day that had these as well. When other people played, they got gamer ads. When I played, I got ads for Visual Studio on the billboards in the city.
