Theme is BlackMesa. google will bring up loads of places.

Correct, it's the same as my theme a couple of posts up

Nice wallpaper dru

I've downloaded that BlackMesa, is there a program I need to apply it? As when I go to the Themes tab on Desktop properties it is looking for *.themes file.

Sorry, I have no experience with customising XP.

You need to download the uxthemepatch.dll

Google it as i have completely forgotton where i got mine from, mine was an automatic one so i didn't have to do anything apart from start the program, i believe it was from neowin.net

The patch replaces the default windows one and enables you to use third party themes, works a dream as well

I know it's possible for it to be Windows, but Dru posts here regularly, and normaly its from his mac not from his Windows machine

I stand corrected

Rolleyes is a bit over the top is it not?

Tobes · 18 Jul 2005 at 22:00

ladys calm down. Keep chatter to a minimum that way we can go through pages of sweet desktops

//Mike · 18 Jul 2005 at 22:07

I'm working on my desktop right now......bloody active desktops take a while to code from scratch

Dru · 18 Jul 2005 at 22:36

Hey

Just to clear everything up my last desktop was indeed my Mac. I'm going to be posting my windows desktop tomorrow. I'm just making a new wall for it and selecting a theme. Much of what is on my mac can fairly easily be emulated on Windows anyway

@RandomTom: I'm glad you like it mate

I'm releasing another pack later this week with a few colour variations (if they look any good that is lol)

Just for you then:

Hi,

can some one point me in the direction where i can get all these add-ons to the desktop. first time i've seen these and have no idea where to look.

Thanks in advance!

Dru · 19 Jul 2005 at 00:47

Looks to be some samurize configurations and object dock at the top. If you google Samurize you'll find the program and then if you search on this forum you'll find some threads where people have explained how to make your own samurize setups. If you need any more help then post... I might be able to help and i know there are others that can.

theme is?
and bar at bottom and everything I need to know about the theme and buttons for the bar are?

Cheers lol, that is one nice desktop

Pixelplus IIRC.

Bar is objecdock and can be found from google

Tobes · 19 Jul 2005 at 08:24

Cheers. Oh what would we do without google? ........ ..... Hummm, prob use ask.com.

Me - "Where can I buy a orange from?"
Ask - "Returned 1 result, you can buy a kewi from here."

lukechad · 19 Jul 2005 at 12:30

I dont know what I did a few months back but when I tried to change my theme etc I totally screwed the PC up so I have decided not to bother again and to stick with XP Classic, but I am posting this image to show my wallpaper. Expertly photographed my myself

Conrad11 · 19 Jul 2005 at 16:48
