Ermmm is this a theme or just a screensaver, or a Dream?, it certainly dont seem to be a theme.

Not a dream or a screensaver, but then it's not an object or a widget either so.......that leaves me with a very unconventional kind of theme, which I call a vizion.

No wallpaper?


lol Hey rric1 maybe if you took a screen shot, printed it on your Color jet you know you could then take a little paste and slap up on your wall and have the wallpaper your looking for. ��(Hint: try pressing the shift key and the print key at the same time, then fire up Paint and press the ctrl key and the v key at the same time.)��Hey sViz nice SIM. �

Thanks BigDog.�


rric1,

If you look in:

C:\Documents and Settings\USER NAME\Local Settings\Application Data\Stardock\DesktopX\CurrentTheme

while the theme is running, the wall should be in there along with all the other images used in the theme. It's called "tropicWall3".

Hi sViz ...

Is this one from the back burner..

Interesting idea, this matter of trying to bring action to the desktop, and seems to be something that you like to do, this scripting and such. The sounds are kinda cool ...

Best Regards,

Steve

Hi Steve,

Thanks. This is new stuff. (I'm clearing off the backburners now, though). I do like making these because some family and friends really liked to use them. (Did a few with real pics but because the photos aren't mine I can't re-distribute them here.)

Hi sViz ...

You're welcome ...

I would imagine that they might look better with real photos, and there are ways to get those to use if I'm correct, but it would take some searching to do on Flickr, as there are those that allow thier photos to be used in that way, ("derivitive works, limited license"), a GNU sort of thing. You could do a tag search for waterfalls if so desired. So ... that is an option. Elated.com (Web Design) has stock photos for people to use for free, though I'm not sure if they have anything like that, or if they are expressly for web design and to be used with their themes, (you would have to check on that). They do have some cool free themes to use and modify if you are into web design at all. .

I have some that I've taken, though they certainly wouldn't have a Tropical feel, more like the wallpaper photo in the new theme, (Northern Minnesota) and you are welcome to try something with that if that suits your needs, and I would imagine there are other options, as well, though it does take time to do so.

Well, I just remembered that I left a comment to you and decided to stop back and check.

Best Regards ...

Steve

Thanks for the tip, Steve. I'll have a look around and see if there are any I can use. I was considering using Bryce but it'll take forever to learn to use that program and tutorials for it are scarce.

Hi sViz ..

Your welcome. I think I downloaded Bryce at one time or another, a free trial or such, but I don't remember what I did with at this time, but perhaps for one reason or another didn't get into that. But, anyway, I wish you well in your endeavor.

Best Regards,

Steve

Thanks koenmiseur. I'm glad you like them.

what about a summer day on the beach


Sounds good. I tried my hand at waves washing onto the shore but they came out looking weird. Might be something to work on.

That's because Approaching Storm is a widget. It can be run simultaneously with a desktop theme such as Tropic Falls. You need to close Approaching Storm first before using Tropic Falls.
