WOW.. I've never commented on anyones post in these type of threads, but I gotta say Myth, that's one pretty cool wallpaper. The more you look at it the more detail you can see. Gotta link for the 'clean' version?

MythicaL · Jan 22, 2005, 01:21 AM

1024 version here: http://www.deviantart.com/view/8250089/

The bigger version and an alternate version is on his site... the link to his site is located on the above link...

By the way I inverted the picture so it was originally white and orange.

Your guys desktop's rock

What are you useing to change the look of xp? I like MythicaL and violat3's taskbar and start menu is that from the same software

MythicaL · Jan 22, 2005, 03:30 AM

I use UX Theme for the shell, and that way you don't need any software running in the background

Link to UX Theme download here.

CAPTinsano · Jan 22, 2005, 03:42 AM

Cool thx for the quick reply

CAPTinsano · Jan 22, 2005, 04:08 AM

With that link i get an error saying no windows nt set up file on c:... is it for xp? and it says multi patcher is it just a patch? also what other software is there for this type of thing

sorry should have said the file i got from that link gave me the error not the link

MythicaL · Jan 22, 2005, 04:18 AM

Yeah, it's for XP, and it should work... maybe just not that version... I dunno, I had problems with a few installers and I had to find the right one. Just look for the right installer

And there is no other software, that's the best part

TJ- · Jan 22, 2005, 04:25 AM

i just right clicked on the image and saved it, then set as backround..... simple as pie...
