Photos The 'post your desktop' thread

I will be the second to ask you if you can give it to me I was shy to ask you in the first place

 

dear god... what has been done to that?

 

Nexxo, what's the bar at the very top? More samurize?

Edit: arki, I'd love a link to that background.

 

Pretty sure the bar at the top is the Yahoo! Widgets RSS reader...I had it for a while myself but didn't use it much.

its call "into the mist"

 

a perfect example of why all-Flash sites are crap.

 

Yup.

I'll probably upload it to the Samurize website and give you the link. It is a work in progress. It also assumes that you have 10 partitions. If you are a bit handy with Paint.net and the Samurize editor you can easily adapt it however.

The Miranda IM skin is called "ModernClear".

The bar at the very top is a Yahoo Widget called "Informer" with a RSS Reader widget superimposed.

 

Thanks Nexxo. I don't have 10 partitions but I'm sure I can edit it to fit my needs somehow.

 

Nexxo, i love the small screen with the stats on it, could you provide some information on how it works etc, what program it is you use on it, program in windows etc

Thanks in advance

Sam

 

They call it "samurize". You design your info screen the way you like ( same photoshop etc. ) and you use it. But I don't know how they make it run on the small lcds with usb or tv out. I don't have a clue sorry.

 

I changed my Desktop again, but I don't think anyone needs to see another Umbrella desktop

 

the screen is a generic (Sharp?) 5" TFT screen that runs on 12V off a molex, and takes an S-Video (NTSC) signal from the graphic card. On Display Properties in Windows it is recognised as a secondary monitor, set to 640 x 480 resolution. Tick the box: "Extend the desktop to this monitor". It then shows up on the Samurize config editor as a bit of extra desktop also.

Design your config in this area, set the whole project to "pin to desktop" and "lock position" and there you are.

To get all the data on CPU temperatures etc., Samurize works together with Speedfan which passes its sensor data on to Samurize to process (it can perform simple mathematical equations on it if you want) and display.

The coolant flow is measured by a flow sensor hooked to an RPM sensing motherboard fan connector, which simply sees it as another fan. Speedfan passes this "fan" RPM data on to Samurize which divides it by the correct number to translate it back to litres per minute before displaying it.

Samurize is really easy to configure. It is mostly click and drag wysiwyg editing. It has been around for a long time but I was the first person to ever use it on a small 5" screen in a computer bezel (before they were used for Winamp visualisations etc.). I can't understand why nobody ever thought of it before!

 

Because Nexxon Is The MAN!!!!

 

Geez... this thread is "new for a long time now"... Isn't the time to begin a new one?

 

no no we don't need new one... ! what is the problem when it reach 1000 pages?!

 

Here is my Samurize config: simply donwload and it should import the .SAM package into the relevant Samurize folders. http://www.samurize.com/modules/mydownloads/visit.php?cid=11&lid=2212

Enjoy.
