but keep it updated in the page

EDIT: those who are actually wanting to use it just remember its buggy untill we can fix it.....so anybody who know how to set the attributes so that the background stay constant please do tell.

[enigma-penguin Veteran]

double click it :shifty:

Wow we're certainly in a humorous mood today! What I mend was, I can't find the file, if enable the folder to show it's hidden files I can't see it.....

[enigma-penguin Veteran]

thats becuase it need sytem folder attributes in order to show the file

[XP_01]

ehm can you explane that for me?

[enigma-penguin Veteran]

yeah go into run

then type: attrib +s

put in a space then follow it with the path to the file you want changed

eg C:\Documents and Settings\"username"\My Documents

[enigma-penguin Veteran]

just an update . i will soon have the first version of the file viewer ready....

it'll be a html file that will do the job of explorer, except it will have the longhorn information bars with info :)

im just trying to figure out how to get a web page file to read dll's and ini's so that it can determine the locations of stored images and the attributes of a file...... i might make it java

[XP_01]

it doesn't work if I type in run attrib +s C:\Documents and Settings\User\Bureaublad\Nieuwe map

[enigma-penguin Veteran]

ok then im not sure...anyone who can help?..... both of us

anyone who can help xp2003?

andif anyone can help me with my mod pls email [email protected]

cos it like 5am and i need a break.

[Fusion]

could comeone explain to me what is so cool about this? Is what you are talking about it placing the picture on the top of your files? I don't get it...

[enigma-penguin Veteran]

actually what i put up was just that a background.... it what i havent done..

create a mod that gives you the longhorn top bars whilst viewing your files

EDIT: lols oh and actually supplying the information like longhorn so you can git rid of the side bars (which are annoying)

to put it plainly. it will be a single file on the desktop with nothing in it but a background... which is like an active desktop , that will allow you to view your files in longhorn style.

and i hope to allow it so that file attributes can still be changed ect whilst using it :)

It's a mod folks, most mods for GUI's don't do much other then looks.

Relax.

I was just asking what it did, because I don't know.

I guess I would have to know what longhorn acts like before I talk about it.

[engmike8]

i might look into using this, it looks very good so far, keep up the good work :D

[Windows X]

Hey! Save it as 1600x1200 in png format. It use less than 50k!

[Ethere]

what a waste of space and talent.

My sentiments exactly. But, not over this modification to XP. I am referring to your post. :rolleyes:

Great work on this. I'm looking forward to trying it out when I get home.
