Here's the [very, very clean] Desktop of my editing computer. I notice you use Videowave III, L.B? How do you find it? I use Studio 7 at the moment, but I'm getting Vegas Video 3.0.

Once I get windows 2000 I'll get better soft ware for editing but for now it will do.

Let's see if this works.

Yoda 06-01-02 11:21 PM

It works. Did you know your IE shortcut is labeled "Exploder" instead of "Explorer"? Or was that on purpose?

firegod 06-01-02 11:27 PM

That was on purpose. :)

spudracer 06-02-02 01:42 PM

You have to have a program that can take a screen shot.

Yoda 06-02-02 01:43 PM

Nah-uh. :nope: I'm pretty sure you can hit "Print Screen" and then paste the shot into MS Paint, or something of the sort.

sadesdrk 06-02-02 01:46 PM

How do I attach a attachment?

All I see is a insert img?

Yoda 06-03-02 03:36 PM

At the bottom of the Post Reply page you'll see a button that says "Browse..." -- click on it, select the image from your hard drive, and submit the post as you would normally.

Chicken Invaders is a game really similar to Space Invaders, only it's chickens instead.

Here's the link to download it

Okay, this is my current desktop image. I drew it myself. The girl in the pic has no name as of yet, but I'm open to suggestions. The "SM" on her shirt stands for Space Monkey, (which was a name I was toying with for my own underground comix company that I would like to start if I wasn't so broke all the time), not Sado-Masochism or Sailor Moon.:D

Austruck 06-11-02 01:47 AM

Hey, anyone with Alfred E. Newman on their desktop can't be all bad!

(I have a Alfred "What--Me Worry?" statue on my bookshelf staring down at me while I work.)

The girl is an amazing drawing. (She reminds me of a cross between *both* of my daughters.) You have some talent!

Of course, even had it on all the computers in my lab at the school for the kids to play, but had to take it off. They loved it, very addictive game.

How does one set up their wallpaper as an url?

Yoda 08-12-02 07:24 PM

One does not. One just grabs a screenshot and attachs it to one's post. :)

jrs 08-12-02 07:28 PM

well how do i do whatever i need to do

Yoda 08-12-02 07:32 PM

Make sure your desktop is on the screen. Then hit the Print Screen button. Open an image editing program (like MS Paint), and go to the Edit menu. From there, choose Paste. Your image should appear in the program. Go to File and choose Save As. Save it as a JPG image somewhere on your hard drive. The rest is self-evident, I'm sure. :)

Og, what the heck are those outrageously fascinating little stuffed things on your desktop? The newest rage in children's programming on PBS or what???

Here's my latest (new computer, XP finally--I change the background almost weekly):

OG- 08-12-02 11:10 PM

Pictures from some sort of underground Japanese show or comic. Not quiet sure. The brown fellows name is "Domo Kun", or that is the name of his type of people. I think there was a tv show about him, he appears all over stuff, sort of like an inside joke on the internet. I love that crazy guy!:laugh: I think he's wonderful!Domo-Kun!

Nice wallpaper. Very Riven-ish. I must take this opportunity, however, to scoff at your resolution/poor eyesight.

Scoff! Scoff, scoff, scoff!

Austruck 08-12-02 11:20 PM

Sorry. I need the bigger fonts, but I'd rather have the better resolution. I'm old, remember? :)

You picked up the Riven thing for a reason. There's a Cyan logo in the lower right corner (did you notice it?). This is a screen shot from their upcoming ONLINE INTERACTIVE Myst game, nicknamed Mudpie by its followers, but which is now just being called Myst Online.

It will be interactive around the world the way Ultima Online is. You'll be able to build a place to live in a neighborhood, etc., and explore worlds and find linking books, etc. etc.

It's due out sometime in 2003. Sounds fascinating -- if you can get past all the junkies out there who will live and breathe this stuff and dress up like Atrus and start talking in D'ni language. (I think Conan O'Brien should have that talking dog follow those folks around.)

Anyway, I love Myst-like art and threw this one on for now. I'll change it next week, probably to something stupid like one of my wedding pictures. :)

Gracie 08-19-02 09:19 PM

thmillin, I noticed you play Boulder's Gate. How far through are you? I'm actually at Boulder's Gate, but the gaurd won't let me in, Even though I have the Inviatation needed to get in! That really sucks... :yup:...really sucks...

Just curious how you use it....

nope you see I HAVE story craft....

seems I do better the old fashioned way (pencil/paper)

I get distracted to easy if I try to do anything on here.
I almost always end up either chatting or surfing. :( you knoe the old saying "Attention span of a gnat"

It seemes fairly user friendly though, as I have FOOLED around with it a few times... but....

That famous painting of Kramer is also hanging big-as-life in the front of our local grocery store. I have no idea why the owner has it hanging there (huge thing, too), but it cracks me up every time I go in there. Even has the same frame.

Weird.

P.S. to Film Fr3ak: Aha, yes, that makes sense. I've only use Writer's DreamKit for one outline so far, but once I got the outline printed out, I stopped using it and got busy writing. I know what you mean about the computer being a distraction, so I bought a cheapo laptop on eBay ($125) and use that elsewhere in the house so I don't get tempted by Internet access and megagames, etc. Not that I don't find OTHER distractions....

Well ONE of the computers on my home network doesnt have a nic so it cant get online since i am dsl. I thought I would be "smoove" and put it on there, then just transfer the files over to this one should I need to print or send to someone ( I dont really want to put it on my laptop, since I use it primarily for my genealogy reserach)....

I worked on it for a while one after noon, then went to save. It shut completely off without saving. :( I think the problem is that pc is win95 and me version is for 98 and up :( so i am gonna reformat and then put me on there... anyway .. .. back to the subject.... it was very user friendly.
