Why does Siberys need two shortcuts to Windows Media Player?

I suddenly have this urge to go somewhere, Print Screen a desktop, delete the shortcuts, then use the copied image as the desktop.

Erm, that looks pretty cool. What Operating System would you be using, that doesn't look like anything I've seen before. Nice music selection btw.

That must be from the Tim Burton wallpaper collection.

He's using a program called WindowBlinds.

Basically it alters the appearence of that 3D bar on the bottom of your screen and everything that would associate with it.

It's really an awesome program, I'm using the Octane skin from that program now.

Oh, and I hate Tool.

WindowBlinds is pretty cool and is the basis of the AlienWare skins that you can download as well.

Interesting, I'll have to see about getting the program. There's only so much I can do through XP to change my desktop.

Hate Tool? Even if you don't like the type of music, it's still good music if you look at it as a musician. Not many bands...at all...can say that about their music. Meh, a discussion for another place.

Go to Stardock's website for WindowBlinds and other applications along with theme packs. Just remember that most of the really good stuff isn't free but isn't too expensive either.

True that! System of a Down is another very talented group of musicians that make music that is hard for most of the general public to enjoy.

System of a Down blows. My ex was really into them; it was one of many rifts to rise between us. They aren't talented; they just suck.

You are both cracked! System of a Down is great; you never know if you're going to get brain-bleeding or bouncy. I won't say they're the best group out there but they are definitely entertaining to keep in your library. You're just prejudiced against Canadians.

(Sorry for the spam)

Time to revive this ol' good thread. And what's better way to do that than posting my current desktop!
The wallpaper is taken from one of my favourites bands website, Tarot.

NOTE! If you get offended by flaming hand showing middle finger to you, please do not check the picture!
