Looks like someone has been around DA checking out desktops. ;)

I'll have to pimp mine out again, right now it's plain.

Finny, I found some awesome icons for desktop, you just right click, and go to properties and can change it from there, there are sweet packs on DA, just search for them.. there are like XBOX 360 icons, PSP, and a bunch of shit.

Uploaded this for you people with very little RAM:
Tuneup Utilities, it's pretty idiot proof (very easy to use) and does A LOT to optimize your computer.

ta, the tune up utilities, has a lot of features just to keep your computer running smooth, for example when I changed my pc into a mac, a lot of files etc got moved and my computer generally slowed down, but it has its own defrag utility, probably better than the windows one I'd say, and now my computers fast again, it also finds problems in registry and corrects them, it also deletes old registry entrys, it can check for errors in the hard disk and fix them, it's awesome, and say you have a crap pc, you can make it automatically enhance it so it runs faster, i.e. disable animations and shadow icons etc

hey finnery, i'm such a noob as these kind of threads :biggrin:, but, just wondering, where did you get that kind of desktop? (i really dont how its called :biggrin:) you know with the start thingy at the top and all icons below :rolleyes:
it looks really cool
thanks! :cheers:
Title: Re: Post desktop
Post by: Finnery on Jun 01, 2008, 03:50: AM
to put your thing at the top, you right click the "start thingy" (taskbar) and make sure that "Lock the taskbar" is unticked, then just drag the taskbar holding left click down to the right of the screen, then to the top, its a bit fiddly but yes.
