RE: The OFFICIAL

Unklean you're out from under your rock? :D

I can't really post the Icons seperately... I downloaded this program on the Alienware website, chose a skin I wanted and pressed Apply... 10 hours later I was wondering why only the icons and some other things changed, and I realised it was bugged or something. And I dunno how to change back the folder logo's so i'll just stick with them.

To change the Start logo and pretty much everything else, I used a program called WindowsBlinds (gotta pay for it).. search online @google :)

Merry Christmas and Happy New Years, everyone.

RE: The OFFICIAL

ah see now custom cursers i know how to do it's a simple image selection thingy...though i'm pretty sure it has to be the right format i'm sure simple google search will bring up some cursers that you can install.

yeah theres a bug i think with vista that when you customize your color scheme for a theme you automatically get the defult instead of the new vista toolbar...it is a big boo...but i have cool sounds and stuff to go with everything and cool cursors, youut cant see them in the pic. Also have cool icons that arent shown...:-P

I'll have to get mine up here too, but in the mean time, Ron, I noticed your keyboard. A buddy of mine has that one. Have you had any trouble with the plastic coating on the keys wearing off on the "QWERTY" side where we do movement in most games?

His W,E, S and D keys are just glowing blue blobs now.

I was actually debating getting the WoW special edition keyboard. The one with the game overlay.

Looks kinda silly, but altogether it's really handy I suppose.

Yup, that's the one. Might look a little dorky, but compared to your standard Dell POS, it's pretty cool to me. I still have to convince myself to let go of the funds too, while I still have a working keyboard, but I'm a cheap bastard! I'll probably try to get a monitor like Ron's before swapping the keyboard though. That was sweet lookin!

Actually, that's not far from the truth. :) I took the picture right after my partner and I cleaned the house for some guests that came down from Georgia for a visit. :) Although I'm not totally a filthy slob, there's generally a few bills and other things cluttering up the desk a bit. :)

My G15 is just fine. I've had it for a few months, but I'm also not a hardcore gamer, so I'm not constantly holding those keys down. I work...and have a psuedo-family life...and drink.

Here is one I use....now Thunder....that is frickin awesome...nice to see a Lil Evil Ernie. That is one nice looking desktop.

If I remember and not so tired in the morning will show the other desktop art/icons I use...got to remember how to use the manager though to bring the back.

I switched my art though...I did have the RGX girl up but removed it back to my Heroes one. Dru said she would make fun of me for it.

Wait....on closer inspection....is that Spawn? Maybe I was wrong it wasnt Ernie.

Mine is simple. I just utilize the "gadgets" in Vista Ultimate quite often. :-p I resized the image down to 1024 wide. My desktop's resolution is 1680 x 1050.
