WB: OS X Tiger

Rainmeter: HUD.Vision

Desktop Icons: iVista Reflective Icons for IconPackager

Can't remember the details about the RocketDock icons, but they're cool!

Wall: Twisted Stripe 4 from DA by welshdragon, modded with a mini-collage of my beautiful geek girlfriend, Jennifer, using Desktop TakeOver.

he has more icons than the default 2 so it's just a matter of trying to get it right...a lot of times.

I didn't understand your post... I was asking how he shortened the distance between the last quicklaunch icon and the first app, without having the 2 white arrows that windows places...

Right click taskbar then click unlock, left click on the ribbed dots next to quick launch, drag to desired point, then right click taskbar and hit lock taskbar.

Yeah, thanks for replying... i know that, but my question is another... look at this image:

Explanations about the numbers:

Number 1 - The image I want to apply in my SO

Number 2 - My SO, aligned to show that in my SO the distance is larger than his

Number 3 - My SO, after unlocking the taskbar

Number 4 - My SO, after moving only 1 pixel to the left

The 2 head of arrows appears, and I can't reproduce the small size in #1

Please let me know I you guys didn't understand my explanations... english isn't my native language :(

Windows xp obviously

The wallpaper is on DA, called colorpicker or something like that

The media player is just windows media player with a theme that I messed round with till I got what I wanted.

The browser is the shiny new Web2.0 browser from google: Google Chrome - The first browser sporting a full-featured porno surfin' mode! So far it's pretty good. Hopefully they come up with add-ons like firefox has.

The clock and stuff is just google desktop, coz well, I liked the desktop search thingy, and I haven't noticed any performance drops yet.

credit goes to Long Zheng (istartedsomething) who created and shared on his site his hilarious 'I'm a Mac, and we're the PCs' picture. I simply enhanced it and made it 1920x1200 friendly.

PS I own a PowerBook as well, but thought the message was quite cute (and it doesnt demean Macintosh in anyway.)

    • RTD and Bad Wolf out Everybody lied, there was never a Christmas script done, even though they said there was RTD brought it back then killed it with the PC overload and garbage nonsensical stories Who knows what production company will want to drink from the poisoned chalice now. The squandered opportunity with the Disney partnership will go down in production folklore
    • Problem with that is Vivaldi is the slowest chromium browser I have ever used. I keep trying it every few months in case performance has improved. ...and it's not due to specs or config. 5900x/32gigs/RTX3080 here, Win 11 25H2 etc.
    • My only concern would be the state of the battery. I'd be getting one from a place you trust and perhaps has a decent warranty.
    • Like yourself Steven P I have watched it from the days of William Hartnell, It was good when we had the Darlek's and the Cybermen. Sad to see one of the longest running shows in the world die a sad death.  
    • My problem with FF is I have to jump through hoops to get at least somewhat close to what Vivaldi gives me out of the box, with no real advantage that would make it worth my while. (But hey, apparently there's now at least experimental support for HDR in FF. I mean it's about a decade too late, but still...finally!) Brave I was never the least interested in, never saw the point, not to mention there's been quite a bit of drama surrounding them over the years. But I've been a faithful and very happy Opera user all the way back to 2001(ish), so once Vivaldi showed up following that awkward period of time after the key people left Opera and the company was sold, I never really looked back. And they never once made me question my choices.
