Photos The 'post your desktop' thread

My latest

 

whats the system usage like for samuraize? sorrry for being ot, just wanna give it a go, but worried it might interfere with gaming etc.

 

it depends a lot on the config - mainly on how frequently it's updating, and you can just turn it off of course.

 

First your "show desktop" problem. While SAurize is running, launch the "Instance Manager". Select the "Default" instance (which is the config that is running now --each config is an instance. You can have several configs running concurrently with Instance Manager. This is no appreciable additional strain on your CPU). Find the "Instance Options" button and select "Pin to Desktop". That should do the trick.

The analogue clock is made using the Time meter set as analogue. You need three overlapping analogue dials: one for seconds, one for minutes and one for hours. You need to mess with some variables to get the hands to work correctly-- too much to go into here but the Samurize website has a forum which explains such things. You may need to use a .jpg or .png image for the dial.

The calendar is a plug-in which you can download from the Samurize website.

The CPULoad meter is basically a PerfMon meter.

@ chemo: the CPU load for Samurize is about 3%, when updating every 1 second.

 

My current desktop (not that I change it a lot or anything! lol):-



I like blue, I like crytals, a blue crytal style desktop is an obvious progression! lol

This family gaming PC has seperate accounts for the family so i have my own account and stuff... Found a web site with alot of kewl star wars desktops and i found this one... I mite change it though...

EDIT!!!!

Got a new invader zim wallpaper... In background playing Rammstein...

 

Heres my nice and clean desktop. I have just finished installing Windows XP fresh on this computers so its not all installed with my fav apps but check it out.

 

My latest: its got quite a huge spoiler in it...if you read/watch the manga/anime

 

I may as well upload the wallpaper for anyone who wants it.

Screenie from new lappy. CBA to resize it tbh...

 

ok not a real desktop screenshot - but i did change my setup around a bit last week



had to take the monitor shelf off the desk, and put the tower on top cause the vga cable wouldnt reach it on the floor ...

and that's a 27" westinghouse HD monitor - 1280x720 ... mounted on an arm that can barely handle it. will change it up later when i get my old room back (if the ex ever moves out)... cheap arm will go to the 17" and the 27" will probably go back on the stand on top of the other desk (has a huge hutch) ...

my next upgrade will probably be a proper 5.1 speaker set, if i can find one with dual inputs that are switchable.

the hd cable box gets the 27"s dvi via a hdmi-dvi cable ... and the vga from the 9600pro

the 17 is getting the dvi from the 9600pro... and will soon get the vga from my spare k6/2 533, after i put some sort of linux on it.

 

Mine!

my wannabe osx theme (yay no desktop icons)

 

Remember this one?



Just to let you know that due to popular request, I have arranged for this Samurize config to be downloadable at the Samurize website. It now includes the two fonts and all the plug-ins and scripts you need to run this thing.

By the way, I'm currently working on a suite based around this theme:



... including an iPulse type thingy.
