Gorb: Looong Story...
Myrk: I used to do a lot of work with VC++. Haven't used it much recently, but yes. I know how to.
TwoKnives: You won't believe how much fun that game is (if you like the sport).
omegaslayer: I don't remember. It's a digitalblasphemy image, but I found it on some other site.

yeah, i suppose.

most people have desktop themes created by someone they don't even know. somehow that removes the "personal" aspect of a desktop IMO. people have been personalizing them since their inception, yet, they things they put on them are not personal at all.

It's probably a webpage... You can make webpages backgrounds, I remember I once had my favourites embedded into my background, and also a countdown clock which I made.

If you were really cunning you could put drop menus and java apps in the background, or even videos... One thing I look forward to is animated backgrounds, things like waterfalls and stuff...

I once tried to create a website background with several (framed) pages that would allow me to quickly open programs. Too bad you can't open programs from a website (or at least I don't know how to do that)...

And animated backgrounds... I thought that was fun at first, but those movements became quite annoying, and they slowed down my comp too...

Could be a different shell like Aston. I tried Aston once and that had tonnes of ways to change your desktop. Other than that... please tell us!

As far as I can remember that didn't work very smooth. Then again, it's quite some time ago I tried that... Mhh, perhaps I'll give it another go... perhaps.

Just realised that the red cross icon in the games is one of the stock icons that come with Windows; that one's Sam and Max Hit The Road.
