blim Posted April 17, 2005 Report Share Posted April 17, 2005 All these desktops are awesome! I'm an artist but the only way I could do what you folks do is to draw something and tape it to the computer I so want to add teletubbies to the Windows "green grass hill" desktop!Thanks for posting them and keep them coming--I have had a great time looking.

Thank you, thank you, thank you I feel like a kid at Christmas!Now, how do I get that onto my desktop? (kindergarten tech level here) Son knows how to do this but I want to do this myself and surprise the kids when they turn the idiot box on.(at least make them groan, "Ohhhhh Mom...") Heeheehee... I'm so excited Thanks again! Liz Quote Link to post Share on other sites
robroy Posted April 24, 2005 Report Share Posted April 24, 2005 Liz, open the link then right click on the picture, click save image as then choose a folder to save it to.On your desktop right click away from any iconsthen select Properties click on the background tab if that isn't the one on top, click on browse, then go to the folder where you saved the picture and select the picture. then click on apply, then ok and the picture should be there as the background Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vile_DR Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 The Third Desktop is pretty sweet there Mac. They are all pretty good and beyond my abilities, but the third one just has that look of elegance Quote Link to post Share on other sites
macmarauder Posted May 3, 2005 Report Share Posted May 3, 2005 yeah i do these things in weird stages so i figured that it would be kinda neat to show that. the first one we just playing with the idea of what i wanted. the second one was like a rough draft. the third one was like the final rough draft of the first attempt. i don't quite like it enough to replace my current desktop so attempt #1 - failed now for attempt # 2 ---- to be posted by the end of the day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
