Why does everyone want my awards? First vista, and now sabrown? :?

Can I auction them off? :)

You haven't got the Pauley Shore award so why I want your award :?: - mind you, sabrown100 is probably eager to buy your award off you! :wink:

I got two awards. The one in my "rank", and the other one is in the awards thread. Search for it.

Woohoo! I've finally got True Transparency to work on my computer giving it that lovely aero look. :)

If you want it use it, tell me and I'll tell you which version to use as some versions conflict with Paint.NET. Until now, all the versions caused PDN to crash.

I feel like downloading some more skins for True Transparency!

EDIT: Here is the link for True Transparency 0.85 (which doesn't crash with PDN!!)

I used 3 Applications:

1. QT Tabbar -- Made by same author

2. QT AddressBar -- Made by same author

3. Styler

There you go, hope this helps :P

If you want to improve the look of XP, but don't want to mess with system files, try the Zune Windows Theme from Microsoft.

I love that theme, I use it on my XP laptop! :D

I'm on a quest to Vistafy my XP PC.

...

Mine looks so realistic it's just not funny:

That is a vista screenshot so i don't see the funny part.

That was the funny part. It is Vista.

I'm just about ready to award you the PSA right here and now. :-)

 

The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.
Amy: But how did it end up in there?
The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.
River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him.

You guys are strange.

I always use the default theme of an OS.

I have never seen a reason to change it.

Ditto. Granted, I have WinXP Media Center, so I don't use Luna; but Energy Blue is good enough for me. :-)

I have. It was the jump fro Luna to the Royale theme. I heard it gave a little boost in performance and looked nice without changing System Files, and they were very correct. Royale theme for every XP user!

Go ahead! lol

You probably have to be an admin to do it.

It's a joke, sabrown!

What's new? Microsoft DreamSpark! What is it? College students in the US and various other countries are now eligible for free Microsoft software, including Visual Studio 2008 Professional. Now's your chance to become a plugin developer! https://downloads.channel8.msdn.com/

I know - but the Zune theme is best for users who don't want to hack their system files.

Edit: And for people who don't want to risk getting sued my Microsoft.

Please. Just stop pretending you understand intellectual property laws. Please!

Agreed, one hundred percent. Please stop; you are not a lawyer, you're not usually right, and you're giving people misinformation that may eventually get them sued.

It's nobody gets a joke day :lol: :lol:
Agreed. Humour is seriously lacking today.

------------------------------------------

To make it reasonably worth it, I am at the moment rendering a Custard Cream biscuit in Pro/Desktop.

I must see this.

Browse at you leisure.

Because of... problems, not all of the finer details that I yearn for in my works could be achieved, such as curving the edges of the pattern into the base, but hey, I only modelled it for the wire frame, and that doesn't show great amount of detail well, so, nothing is really lost. And doming the text, couldn't do that neither. Well, not that I couldn't, just the program wouldn't allow me.

Although not a dedicated 3D modelling piece of software, I will brush these minor annoyances off. Another reason for the brushing is that, as a CAD program, I can the produce my design in real life on real materials... so, who wants a wooden or acrylic plastic Custard Cream?

Anyway, good enough. Each image is also titled in case common sense is lacking also today. And two reference photographs for if you don't know what a Custard Cream looks like. Which reminds me, the model is a 1:1 reproduction, even if it does look a little, off, shall we say.

------------------------------------------

Imagine if he was a lawyer :shock:
Take that back, before it comes true.

That render took over 3 hours?! Or did you mean you spent 3 hours modeling it, and didn't actually give an amount of time your computer spent on the render? I sincerely hope it's the latter, otherwise I pity you and how long it must take to run a Gaussian Blur in pdn on your computer!
