sickchik Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I sucked at it. I got some of it to work. Since it is designed by a s*** load of different people it all seems like a clusterf*** to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's a pic of my desktop with Samurize running in the top right. It's a modified version of someone else's app. Senuty's Desktop Cheers :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted March 10, 2006 Share Posted March 10, 2006 Hey, I know I haven't been around for a while but I've actually experimented with some desktop shells. I tried blackbox which is actually pretty decent, but definitely not for a novice. I'm having a little bit of trouble with it. I found a couple of programs (I'm not sure were mentioned in the forums) namely rainlendar and rainmeter which I find especially appealing. Also, I don't know if anyone has tried rocket dock here, but I also find that pretty cool and a good compliment to Blackbox. Rocket dock basically gives you the more graphical Mac menu which enlarges icons as you pass over them. I'm not sure how to post my desktop image on here, but I recommend googling these programs.

It enlarges icons and if it is a shortcut to a photo, it shows the photo as the icon. Pretty **** cool I think. It's not free though. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sickchik Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Hold up. what does that mean? I said nothing about any warez or illegal anything. I use a program called iconx. I said it wasn't free. I didn't say i stole it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Tarun Posted March 15, 2006 Administrator Share Posted March 15, 2006 Just trying to be nice and stop bad things from starting..? :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sickchik Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 nm I will get banned. I just think that's kinda dumb. If someone had talked about that stuff, ok. But I wasn't talking about that. And yes I know Tarun edited out something I said but I wasn't trying to start a topic about it, just looking on the other side of the fence. Didn't say I was walking the other side of the fence, just looking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaphirer Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 Ok... About Samurize... yeah.... it definitely seems cool, but it's by no means a simple little modification (i.e., Konfobulator)... I've kinda sorta given up on it hehe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SenutyEnool Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 What problems are you folks having with it? As I've said I've had it for a very long time now and have had no issues/problems and am able to provide some assistance if needed. Even though the 'editor' seems somewhat daunting, it's actually not that hard to figure out once you've played with it. The way I set up my system was to get the 'widgets' that I wanted and then compiled them into one config file and made modifications where necessary. I'm no computer whiz by any stretch of the imagination, but I am willing and tend to tinker with a lot of programs just to see what they can do and therefore might be able to help out with your problems. Ask away, you never know, it might be just a simple little tweak that's needed to make your widgets whir. Cheers :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
