@Huy: it just depends on the use you give your computer, if you like to play a lot you might want to keep windows, but if you want to use it for multimedia usage (you can do this but some distros require for u 2 b patient) internet browsing and working with documents linux is way better. and if you hate when your os crashes its incredibly better. Another advantage is its resource usage, not even compared to windows, for example all those effects you see are running @ a P4 2.8Ghz with 512MB DDR Ram and a 128 MB nVidia Geforce MX4000 (prehistoric video card) and they work quite fine, as for vista (and its copied effects from linux's xgl) require core 2 duo with 2GB DDR2 Ram and 128 nvidia geforce series 5 and over... to do something that still has no compare :p (a little rant lol), asnd if you upgrade to the newer suse versions (open suse xD) you will find that things are easier and the interface is "cuter". (more comfortable) @ukame: using windows you just press the print screen button on your key board, paste it in paint, and save it (try to save as .PNG or .jpeg to reduce size, .BMP files are huge!) and upload it ã©ã†ã—ã¦ç½ªãŒã‚ã‚‹ã®ã ã‚ㆠ   |

^Wow... You even have the MX4000 >__> Well... I have the Geforce 2MX XD so I guess I can understand. But I ditched that sucker a loooong time ago. Hmm, you're making me want to actually dual boot linux now XD. But I play games alot, and my windows doesn't crash at all, so I'm perfectly fine with my computer as it is right now. :) Anyways, I think something needs to compensate for the lower use of computing power for running Linux with Vista -like functions. Like a increased GPU standby usage. As for me, my lappy (the specs are in my profile) runs everything on minimum, even the CPU usage are both 0%/0% most of the time. The only issue is with the memory taken up. 0_o About 40% of my 2GBs is used automatically by Vista. I'm still working on that Lucky Star theme. I HOPE it'll get finished by Christmas or New Years. It'll be one heck of a theme I can assure you. Anybody wanna help along?  |

The only real thing I'm asking myself is if I'm going to purchase Blinds or not. My free trial days are slowly coming to an end soon. =.=; What do you need help with?

Cool, I'm using the same theme for my computer, too. Well, just the taskbar is the same. I don't have the other accessories. XD

^Need to upgrade man. I have the WindowsBlinds 6 and it's much better than 5. BTW, you need to be more specific than crystal clear. I like minimal clear themes. |

Yeah I need to buy it like, next week or so. Order it online or so, and get it sent to my house cause there's no stores out here that have 'em in stock or sells 'em at all. It only costs 20$, no big deal. You can get a bunch of info on their website, which I need to check up on later about 6 or so. I'm currently using the trial run of WB5 or so. If I get the WB for myself, I might try to make my own themes, which I've seen before.

@ DA: The last one was from Tony Taka. I don't know if it was from a H-game. When it's from Shining Wind (I found it in that category) it's not from a H-game. Shining Wind is a RPG for the PS2 as far a I know. I think the 'Cute Demon' is a Carnelian Artwork. Carnelian's style is not as unique as Tony's, that's why I'm not 100% sure. But I'm pretty sure that it is from Carnelian. Like T2 she also makes mostly H-games (like Kao no nai Tsuki, aka Moonlight Lady). If I'm not mistaken Touka Gettan is also from her, at least the character design. @satuross: My old Computer is still standing in the attic. I reinstalled Windows, but the Linux partition should be still there. Is it possible to get back dual boot?  Lenalee is so pretty *_*   |

@Huy: your desktops are freaking awesome! *claps* this is mine for the moment, is just a pic I found on DeviantArt I think and I liked it ^__^  I just realized, Photobucket doesn't let you upload pics bigger than 800x600 px, otherwise the pic will be resized automatically >__<.... anyway   |

Top taskbar possible by Object Dock Blue Black and White (Clear) look so great together XD Edit: Lucky Star Theme is in Progress |

[@Huy] Hmm, so I see. What character is this Lenalee from? I dLed like, the first episode of Touka Gettan like, two weeks ago but haven't seen it yet. Hmmm, I'm not really sure why I dLed it in the first place. I think I read a short description about it on AniDB or something and saw a picture of the anime.

^It's called xyliden (spelling?) You can find it in customize.org I luv that site ^^ The cursor is actually the "link" cursor instead of the normal. I thought it looked cooler since the band it moving along with the normal cursor. |
