Did you see the thread im talking about? somone photoshopped little weird demony things and ghosts and stupid s*** into it. Fairly well pulled off but somone figured it out on the first page :(

Is there somewhere I can download schemes? I am using Windows 2000 Professional.

[Q]: that thread was mad, it lacked hi-res versions of all the pics though :(
I had that particular forrest piccy as my desktop for a while, but now I have this one that I got bored and made while playing around following some tutorial I found.

Resized to 640 cause I dunno how to do the thumbnail preview link.

To do thumbnails, upload both the preview and original then put <A HREF="full image url"><IMG SRC="preview image url"></A>

Ah, cool, you just put the image in the description of the link, cool that's easy to remember for next time =)

no worries

Looks like people aren't that smart :-)

its not a short cut for starters and its so i can make my computer automatically shut down at a certain time.

i don't know any guy who wouldn't

probably einstein.

how handy

can someone please fix their security issue, its f***ing annoying.

heh, to be completely honest I got the background image from someone on this forum ages ago. They had a cool desktop and linked it, and I had a look through his other stuff and found it. Its called Moonlit_Night.jpg but a quick look through google images and I dont know where it was from.

EDIT, found it :) http://http://www.juanradesigns.tk

That weather stuff and comp info program is called kapsules. Its sorta like samurize, piss easy to use.

Spidz that pic looks awesome, my guess would be lake Eyre, but I know im wrong :)

its coastal ;)

thanks lunch :D ill play around with it for a bit :P.. what theme are you using aswell? link if not 2 much trouble. also, what is the location code for brisbane? i cant seem to find it on here :S

http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/local/ASXX0016?from=search_city


thanks :D

Brisbane = ASXX0016

Theme is Inspirat, just noticed Q is using the same one. You can grab it from deviant art.

says invalid location :S

i also cant get the sysinfo to work? it just doesnt come up :(

that was copy pasted from the widget :/

u holding shift+rightclick over the top of the weather kapsule to get the window to it in? Not trying to be rude, I was just stuffing around for a bit with the .cfg txt file till I realised thats where it goes.

yer i read the getting started thingy lol :S dont know y it isnt working :( ill keep trying

where did you get that number from in the first place tho? because i am using the exact same widget plug in thingy and it still says not available

shift+right click - widget settings :)

i got it lol, you have to type it in cant just copy paste :(

what is the thing in the top left hand corner of your desktop?

everytime I click away from the desktop then return, my weather widget is gone :/

oh s*** i set it to enable click through and now it won't let me shift+right click on it :/

yeah if u minimize all then it also minimzes the widgets. bit gay. If I really need to know what the weather is, apart from looking outside, I just minimize all, then maximize one window and minimize it again. Its a known bug that will hopefully get fixed. Also I have mine transparent a bit. U just need to learn where u gotta right-click on it to get that popup window as there is a pretty small selection area.

Also the default weather widget is s***. Get weather bar from the extra widgets on the webpage. Much better plus gives 5 day forecasts :)

Sc00bs that is Kapsysinfo

last edited by Lunch at 15:59:51 13/Sep/04

nothing seems to come up when i click on kapsysinfo :S

mines completely stuffed, I didn't make it transparent I just selected the 'allow clickthrough' box

now I can't access widget settings at all.

I even tried removing and reinstalling, still can't get a s***+rightclick on the f***er :/

Edit: those forums are rather handy

last edited by spidz at 16:22:47 13/Sep/04

how do u fix that click through thing? i did it 2 :$

heh.

right click on systray icon

then hold win key and click on the name of the widget, that brings up the options ;)

thanks :D got my desktop all nice & clean now mmmm now im just awaiting my 120gb hard drive so i can copy all my crap on and format :D

has anyone found or looked for a winamp widget for kapsules? the only one i can find is iTunes or some gay thing like that, is that any good or is winamp better? ta

i've got this kapsules stuff sorted, next step is themes.
