That is the Nürburgring, and it does indeed have graffiti on a lot of parts... That's my brother in his 1.7 Turbo Diesel Mark 4 Vauxhall Astra Estate... it's a company car and he caned the living shit out of it on the Nürburgring, i've got a video....

http://www.zen51445.zen.co.uk/ring

I thought he did fucking awesome seeing as he had only 87bhp (he overclocked his car with a chip which visibly increases the torque curve).

Oh, and it was still packed with all his Dell boxes for work...

You need to host it somewhere on the net, be it on your own webspace, or in an image account; like photobucket or the likes.

I paid for it. I've been using it since version 9.

Before that I was a Winamp 2 man.

This is better by far, but you need to make sure all your music is tagged. It's absolutely perfect for an anal guy like me, and it can get me around my stuff quicker than anything else in exactly the way I want.

That is one huge positive that Mac OS X has going for it, its desktop composition thingy, Quartz EXTREME or whatever they call it.

That allows fully scalable effects to be rendered on the graphics card.

Longhorn should have it (DCE, Desktop Composition Engine) but yeah, it's a game of catch up in that regard.

It could be a TV style screen, in which case that's the correct resolution for it.

Huge PC LCDs with high resolutions are much more costly.

Check out posts from roadie, odwin and myself in this thread (http://www.revo-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1757) -- unless you already know how to customise your taskbar but want to find that specific black style, in which case I don't recognise it (especially since I'm on dial-up and can't be bothered to wait for it to load) - but deviantART's themes > windows utilities > visual styles is always a good place to start.


Many thanks, I have things going good now :)
One more question, how do I replace my icons with a set I have downloaded, without doing them all manually?

I finally fine-tuned my desktop to a nice simplsitic setup:
The icons are hidden (there are only a couple hidden for program running purposes).
I just moved the mquick launch to the left and made the icons bigger et voila! icons gone. Nice clean desktop. I forgot what skin im using though... wallpaper from some site i found on a google.
EDIT: The quality is better than this really. The quick launch bar automatically hides itself too

Back on 1280x1024 (at last), 50% image, sweet vista clone and even sweeter winamp skin, topped off with a brand new SR wallpaper.

I've recently started using 1280x1024 on my nice bright 17" CRT. I used the Wisp theme from StyleXP although I might consider changing it soon. I have no idea where that recycle bin icon came from, but it's cool. The car is a Nissan GTR 2007 Prototype...
