Who's that bird?
 
i assume no credit for any of these some have been slightly modified by me but theyre not my original creations.

ical is HERE

the drive space script is HERE

the g5 is HERE

and the large drives with labels are HERE (you'll need to find your own icons altho i can post some if anyone needs them)

have fun!

**edit**

in order to run all of these scripts you'll need at least 3 instances of samurize running (as i have) if you are unsure of how to do it post in this thread and ill post a guide

I'd say it is easier to use yeah, Samurize requires some getting used to, while SBXP is just a menu driven front end which is easy to setup. Its written in VB so it can be sluggish in places if you've got a low end machine, otherwise its pretty good.
 
in this example there will be 3 clients running as thats whats required to run all of the above scripts.
firstly create 3 shortcuts to samurize in the startup folder calling them "my config 1" "my config 2" and "my config 3".

then right click them and go to properties. for each one add my config# where# is the number.

so config ones target line should read a little bit like this

"C:\Program Files\Samurize\Client.exe" config1

config 2s like this

"C:\Program Files\Samurize\Client.exe" config2

config 3s like this

"C:\Program Files\Samurize\Client.exe" config3


then just double click each of the three shortcuts and 3 instances of samurize should come up. just select your config for each instance and your done

hope this is okay. if anyone needs it explaining more ill be happy to help.


P.S

did you want an idiot guide just for the samurize thing or did you want one for making your computer look like my screeny as well???

Why can't you just stick everything in one big config file?
 
you probably could but you'd need all the scripts put in exactly the right place using the x y coordinate placements. because when you merge configs into one you can only drag them all as one object around the desktop.

eg by default if i just merged them all theyd end up in a clump in the middle of the desktop. and if i dragged them i wouldnt be able to choose just the g5 for example. i have to move all of them.

to sum up i think its easier lol
