I think I am going to shoot myself if I see anymore Windows Aero.

Everyone has the right to show their desktop screenshot on the October 2007 DESKTOP! thread. So don't threaten us with saying you'll shoot yourself :p Anyway here's my laptop screenshot:

Considering there aren't that many themes for Windows Vista, I can't really blame them. What do you want them to do then? Most people were posting the familiar blue, silver and green XP theme for a long time in the years after XP was release. Only when Royale came along and programs by Stardock and ThemeXP was available that customisation became something that was possible on XP.

Anyway, this is the October Desktop thread and I haven't seen any notice where it states "Do not post your boring Vista desks". So, I believe that is the end of this argument, which I think is a stupid thing to bring up given the evidence available at the moment but if you find this offending, I apologise but it does not change what I've said.

Was never an arguement, just an opinion, there are other choices.

I bet most of us don't give a ratass for your opinion.. If people wanna use aero, let them, it's not up to you to decide that. People have waited for Vista and the Aero themes for a long time, so why would they mod it away with something you basicly could have in XP too?

Yes, like sticking with Windows XP :laugh: ! Seriously though, there aren't that many that are interested in customising their desktop beyond changing their wallpaper. It is a matter of choice, and we have no say in what they like ;) .

Whats a Ratass? :laugh: Hey I'm not deciding anything for anyone, If people want to use it, by all means do, still uglier than sin in my book and people that are unaware should know that there are alternatives.

Regardless, I could care less what you think about my opinion, besides what you gettin so defensive for?

    • RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought are free on the Epic Games Store

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 and Voidwrought are free on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe PC gamers can now jump in and grab two more games to keep this week, as the Epic Games Store's ever-present giveaway promotion has just gone through another refresh. Replacing last week's Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat offers, the store has brought in RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought to keep. From the duo, Roller Coaster Tycoon 3: Complete Edition is an enhanced version of the classic title that was originally released in 2004. It comes with enhancements such as widescreen and 1080p resolution support, as well as increased compatibility with modern PC hardware. It also comes bundled with all the extra content from the Soaked! and Wild! expansion packs. "Control park finances, shops, services and staff to succeed in dozens of scenarios," reads the description. "Become a true tycoon and embark on your promising new career, or create your ideal park without money woes in sandbox mode. Satisfy your guests’ needs and keep your park running smoothly to succeed." If management is not your style, Voidwrought lands as a 2D action-platformer featuring hand-drawn cosmic horrors. The title touts tight platforming and close‑quarters combat, all brought together with a strong emphasis on mobility. "Descend below the star-scorched surface and explore the multidimensional depths below," says the studio Powersnake about the game. "Witness the corrupted revelry of the Court, lose yourself in the icy tunnels of the Old Waters, and discover the grim fate of the Abandoned Expedition." The RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought giveaways are set to run until June 25 on the Epic Games Store, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, new freebies will take their place on the same day as always. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.
