Nice. Thanks Wraith.

PREDATOR: I'm using Motherboard Monitor for temp monitoring. Is that what you were asking?

No FP it shows the temp outside i've seen it before somewhere adds an icon and when you sign online it updates it as to what the current temp is outside.

Busby! AWESOME BG!!!

Mine is some-what in it's beginning stage. It works pretty well for what I do... Actually running at 1280x960, on a 19" monitor, it works vpretty efficiently...

FP: How did you get those shortcuts on the bottom like that? Is it only availible in Windows 2000?

NascarFool: How did you modify that Support Info? Some program?

To all:

Where can I get some changes in teh theme? I don't want to use Windows Blinds...Or is that what I have to use? I am sort of interested in trying out the "XP" look.

Any suggestions to make it better? I used to have my shortcuts on the side, but I like them better on the bottom. I really wanted two columns for my windows though, like FP, but it wouldn't work right.

VERY COOL EVERYONE!

I have plenty more cool looking backgrounds. 135 in total. It's great having people that get a bunch of backgrounds at higher resolutions. I usually can get my shortcuts and such like FP does but it seems as though it can be painful to get it like that, generally it happens to me when I don't want it to.

SEAN: That'll work in either 98 or Win2K (mine's Win2K). I just moved the shortcuts to the left then slide the divider between them and the taskbar buttons all the way to the right. Left go of the mouse button and then grab it and slide it back left and you'll have a double row of shortcuts.

Windows wants to default back to one row (like if you accidently move the taskbar) but you can reset it again (one of the few things about XP I like - you can lock the taskbar).
