[Best Themes/Visual Styles?]

The only thing I've changed is the wallpaper which is this one

[How to make the forum better]

It already has got better now someone has cleared out all the silly posts and topics. Whoever that was thanks.

[Editing PNG files]

Can any of you guys recommend software for editing PNG files?

Free opensource would be better. I had a look at the stuff in the freeware topic, but frankly there are so many I was hoping someone could narrow it down a bit.

Thanks

[OverClock]

I've also read by overclocking your CPU it reduces it's life span quite a bit.

[Post DeskTop]

OMG So many wallpaper so little time.

 

Nice find

[Dock]

You can change the theme/background. There are some on the Aqua-soft website link I give you. You can also use objectdock and Y'z dock backgrounds, but not all of the themes work. I'm afraid it's a bit of trial and error. You can also use the objectdock docklets on RK too, if you didn't know.

[Dock]

You should try RK Launcher, I'm sure you can do drag to the recycle bin, as long as the dock isn't locked. Check out here http://www.aqua-soft.org/board/forumdisplay.php?f=81 for further information.

[Changing the Cursor]

If you guys want to change your cursors to something really dynamic have a look at cursorXP from Stardock.

[Fav Bands and Music]

Neil Young

Jean Michel Jarre.

 

This is just a very small sample, I've got about 35gb worth of mp3's. I don't listen to my CD's anymore I've got most of them loaded on to the PC.

[What Icons do you have on your desktop?]

Your right RK doesn't have a "help" file and yes it was all trial and error for me too. To make the task bar disappear you need to right click on RK pick settings, then choose the tab behavior. Then click "hide the task bar". You can also change the seeting to show where your minimize goes to, ie shows up on the dock.

One docklet you might want ot look for is called "task docklet" this shows what you have open at anytime.

 

I couple of good website to go to are http://www.wincustomize.com/index.aspx?u=0, this has loads of docklet for, look under the objectdock section. It's also a great source for icons, wallpapers etc.

 

For help try http://www.aqua-soft.org/board/forumdisplay.php?f=81. You'll need to search around this one for help, but it's where the developer sits most of the time. Word of warning, the mods of this forum are ruthless.

 

Once you get the hang of it, it's cool bit of software.

Hope that helps you at least.

[MusicMatch V Winamp]

Thanks for the input guys.

I tried to used MediaMonkey about 6 months ago and found it to be the ugliest application I've ever came across.

I'll give foobar a try then have a look at winamp again.

[MusicMatch V Winamp]

Hi

I've been using musicmatch7.5 for years, and think it's a great bit of software, the BIG downside is it a major drain on the processor. I've review many other media players over the past few weeks and came to the conclusion that winamp would suit me. One thing that I haven't seen any of the media plays can do is fetch the album art and track names, I can then use these to rename my tracks.

Can anyone convince me to change to winamp or something similar (free would better too).

Basically what are the advantages to disadvantages for changing.

Many Thanks

[.avi files.]

I use winaviVideo converter, it so easy to use and doesn't pull my pc apart while converting. It will convert to most formats to.

[errordoctor.exe error]

Have you tried to uninstall and reinstall, or open directly from the folder.

Make sure that it's not already running before you try to open it.

I've never used or heard of this software but these are the things I'd try first.

[Post DeskTop]

Do you change your desktop every month?

 

 

Generally not, but since installing WB and launcher it's given me greater scope to change my DS. Plus last months was all festive, that was an excuse I used. Who knows what Feb will bring.

[Post DeskTop]

Here's January's Desktop. It's starting to look more like a Mac every day

The launcher isn't normally on the side but I thought you'd like to see the Vista taskbar and Start Menu.

Hope you enjoy it

[Free png to icon converter]

Andavari, before I download any of these bits of software will they convert ico icons to png?

Cheers

[Removing Pre-installed Games]

Andavari Thanks, that's done the trick.

[Removing Pre-installed Games]

Looks a cool bit of software, when i next rebuilt my PC, which should be in a few months (This is one of my twice yearly ways of clearing junk off the PC I'll use this software). Until then if I had to reinstall windows I'm sure my wife would rip me a new one.
