August Desktop Screenshots

Published on August 1, 2005 By Jafo In WinCustomize Talk

Screenshot of a capture in GTR....probably currently the best driving sim out there...and it's all about 'skinning', too...as that's an after-market car 'skin'...

Game skinning is an interesting adjunct to OS skinning.....I did a bit of it a few years ago....for GrandPrix 2 .....pretty primitive it was, too...

All the rest of the junk is mine....

Using only WindowBlinds (OSX Tiger Skin) and ObjectDock+:
Windows Taskbar is hidden
Desktop icons are hidden
All docks are on Autohide
Bottom center dock is currently running programs
Bottom right dock is the system tray
Bounce effect is used so that the AIM icon will bounce when I get an IM (otherwise I won't know since everything is on autohide)

I love this setup, it's clean and I never ever need to use the start menu to access the programs I use the most. It took a while to get used to at first, but it's really efficient once you use it.

How do you post pictures like you guys are all doing?

NeXxit, just click the button "Image" between "Link" and "U" when you add your comments. it will ask you to type the url of the image you want to show. click ok and that's it.

or

when you are typing your post(reply) and you want to add image, use this tag:
--> without the "", just type the url of your image between those tags. that's all and thank you.

here's my work desktop...I run Tweak UI, WindowBlinds and Desktop X.

and with menus, etc.

I am all about nothing on the desktop, so the widget kills me everytime I see it, but I need to know how my computer is performing, so...

NeXxiT: If using Firefox, go to the link where your picture is (that is, the link you just posted). Then, right click the image and click "Copy image location." Now, in the thread's comment box, use the "Image" button, and hit Ctrl-V on your keyboard. Then hit and then Submit.
