Sure! I was going to give you the authors site but it appears to be down so you can grab save it here instead

If you need it in .ico then let me know.

ok new question, dru can you lhost the files for itunes for avedesk? dockex is down and i cant find anywhere else

Dru · 11 Dec 2005 at 18:22

All of the desklets for avedesk can be found on http://avedesk.needlemen.com/ and everything else will be in the aqua-soft forums

I don't mind hosting them if you can't find them but I'm pretty sure you'll get everything you need from those 2 links

Actually yes, I would much prefer it in .ico if you don't mind. Thank you very much.

dru the blue style desktop you did, how did you get avetunes to look like that?

Dru · 11 Dec 2005 at 23:04

erm...which one?? A few of my desktops have blue in!! lol

Go here then post back with the link to the desk you mean and I'll let you know

Oh btw I'm going to make the icons section of my customizing guide a bit more concise later this week but I was wondering what anyone would like me to cover next???

Messiah Khan · 11 Dec 2005 at 23:31

A samurize section would be nice

Dru · 12 Dec 2005 at 00:06

Ooh samurize, now there's something I've not used in a while. Fantastic app though. I'm sure I'll be able to write up something useful

lozza · 12 Dec 2005 at 00:27

Would love some help with samurize in gettng the weather and V scripts working

what have you done to get itunes looking like that?

Dru · 12 Dec 2005 at 12:04

Ahh okay. That's a skin for the avetunes desklet for avedesk (man thats a mouthful!) I couldn't be bothered to trawl the aqua-soft forums for it so I've just uploaded it for you and you can grab it at the link below

Click ME!

Just unzip it and drop it in your avetunes skins folder and then select from the drop-down list within your avetunes desklet

kicks66 · 12 Dec 2005 at 15:47

dru on your desktop gallery on your website, as a suggestion i think you should put the information about the different themes/widgets etc

Dru · 12 Dec 2005 at 17:24

Okay I'll look into doing that. I normally include the info when I post the shot on my blog but I never thought of doing the same in the gallery!

Dru · 13 Dec 2005 at 00:47

Theme: Bee3 port by Pete Ross (orginal by Gerrit)
Wallpaper: Dusk by.... *?
Icons: Milk Unified by ...*?
Apps: Avedesk (reflection avedesk widget) & Firefox (bee3 theme)

bmwx12 · 13 Dec 2005 at 06:11

Dru, how are you able to get your folder information displayed next to each icon on your desktop?

Dru · 13 Dec 2005 at 09:52

I use a program called avedesk to do it. They are all "pidlshortcut" widgets. Really easy to get setup.
