[QUOTE=helifreak;48520840]Botnet 10 reporting in now with additional date widget and more system tray icons than your monitor has room for.

I'm half tempted to make my own CPU / RAM / DISK monitors so I can say I made everything but I like them too much.[/QUOTE]
rip your taskbar
also drop the edgy "botnet 10" bullshit, it makes you look like a complete tool

I also don't understand why people would use more than one cloud storage service
[QUOTE=LegndNikko;48526736]I also don't understand why people would use more than one cloud storage service[/QUOTE]
I use MEGA because it's got lots of space, Dropbox is for the public links and shared folders, OneDrive is there because I didn't bother uninstalling it.

I still think SkyDrive was a way better name.
[QUOTE=lavacano;48532247]I still think SkyDrive was a way better name.[/QUOTE]
It was a good name, but the change is likely for the better. Now it fits in with their other One products/services. It wasn't their option, really, either.

Also, are you using Edge on Linux? How? :v:

Didn't they have to change it because of Skype?
[QUOTE=Cyberuben;48533325]Didn't they have to change it because of Skype?[/QUOTE]
Trademark dispute with BSkyB concerning the "Sky" bit of the name. British court ruled that it infringed in both the UK and EU so they were pretty much forced to change it entirely.

Ah yeah, it was Sky, not Skype.

i don't know why but i heavily fuck with the win98 design. i actually use that as my desktop but the AIM window and authentic 1998 IRC client are just for fun (and for the screenshot)
[QUOTE=Amiga OS;48558230]Windows 2000's UI was pretty much the apex of cleanliness and functionality for Windows.[/QUOTE]
that's what the Win7 classic theme is based off of iirc, so it's like this weird mish-mash of windows 98 elements that i added myself and the windows 2000 elements that the OS provides out of the box
I think the new style Microsoft has going on in their UI design is a real shame because classic, 98-era programs look really fantastic with the new win10 design assets, Foobar2k especially.
Oh, and here's a desktop

I've been on 8.1 for the longest time. I then downloaded an ARMA 3 mod which happened to be infected. The infection spread to my USB drive containing the 8.1 installation files.
Fortunately I found my old W7 disc + legit license in a box.
W7 feels dirty, though

That's why you buy ARMA and support BIS :^)

I've got ARMA 3 on my Steam account, check it out. I meant to type ARMA 3 mod :v: (ARMA3Life in particular, the fileserver I got it from was infected)

The Mirror's Edge thing matches Windows 10 to a tee
I've been in a pace of studying and relaxing, and on those off-beats where I'm just relaxing so my brain doesn't fry, I've been downloading tons of still-shots from movies.
[url=https://stillsfrmfilms.wordpress.com/movies-a-z/]These are rather small, but could work for netbooks and stuff.[/url]
[url=http://www.bluscreens.net/screen-captures-a-z--updates.html]These are pretty great quality! I've been using these.[/url]
I'm using DisplayFusion to display all images as black-and-white.
The problem with this alone is the inconsistencies of the black frames and how they vary from being non-existent, to being small, to being large. So, my solution was to create a Rainmeter skin that uses 1/5 of the height of your screen. It's large enough on my 1080p monitors with the proper wallpaper settings that it covers the black bars.
I also made a Rainmeter skin that darkens my middle monitor's wallpaper so it isn't too distracting or glaring.

As an added bonus because I'm dumb and focus on things that don't matter, [url=http://www.deviantart.com/art/Frost-desktop-music-visualizer-524701934]I added the Frost visualizer on all monitors[/url]:
[video=youtube;c6wVP65sekc]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c6wVP65sekc[/video]
I dunno. It looks neat, it isn't distracting, and as far as I know it isn't heavy on resources:

Also unrelated, but use [url=http://mizage.com/windivvy/]WinDivvy[/url] to grid your stuff on Windows. Aero Snap sucks.
