Bio-Hazard & jamin_za nice desktops but in future hide information as to cdrom drives and harddrives.

With 3 and 4 cdroms I really don't think ppl would have that many cdroms so how many is "virtual" drives and how legal is the software on it?? 8O

Edit:With a harddrive with 75gigs of music and the drive name "music" I really do wonder???

I only had the My Computer window up to show how the explorer interface was also themed, never though you guys would pay any attention to the actual contents. (Bio Harzard, are you working for the scorpions now?)

As for my music drive, alot of it is music video's and ISO's of my music DVD's.

haha, thanks. Just to clarify: I use all those drives, 2 HD's, DVD-W, CD-ROM. that's 4. and the rest are removable like my flash disk and SD-cards for my digital camera. And sometimes I network drives as well. Maybe I should add some more....

Oh Bio-Hazard, tell me, is your name Herbst really? It means Autumn in German.

I am contractually bound not to disclose that kind of information and would appreciate it if you didn't make such suspicious remarks on a public forum.
Why do you ask anyway?

Ummm. I knew I forgot to do something before posting that. And ja, it's my family name. I am descended from Germany.

Gee, it's hard sometimes to tell when someone is joking on a forum....

I will just drop that line of questioning - I dont know what you do for a living and dont particularly care. Was just making a joke.

Thats all....

Nothing to see here.....

Edit: I actually meant to ask wizardofid that question as he was going on about not posting drive info etc on the forums, dont know why I typed your name there instead

LOL, it was just a joke and not one serious word in that whole statement. I know you were joking. Don't worry, your pc is still safe.

Full Glory

Normal

Sorry about it looking kinda bad,had to downsize alot.
Using:
Aston Shell
Non syzegy(spelling) theme
CPU,Ram and net monitor plugin
Clock Plugin.
Sidebar plugin
Still have to change my cursors to the longhorn cursors and have to find the theme that had my icons(Reloaded recently)
Have to use Aston because if I go back into normal windows,DEP starts shutting down programs left right and center(Windows explorer being the main one)if I click anything! WTF. But if i run Aston, as happy as a pig in ****.

Posted: **27 Dec 2005, 23:54**

Thanks, there's alot of software running it. But it's worth it.

Posted: **27 Dec 2005, 23:56**

I agree with LynkX.

Hey MODS, can we start a new "Desktop Theming" Thread?
