but any help from anyone right now as far as ideas and detailed critique would be more than welcome!
Sublime........the wall on your desktop shot would make a pretty good logon and maybe bootskin........why not try presenting your art to the community in this way and once accepted to the public gallery, you then have the comment area to link to your personal gallery for people to pick up the matching wall if they wish. It gets your name and work out there for people to become familiar with and rate/comment as well as extending your skills while you hone your artistic skills........better than linking from the forum for feedback......
I can assure you it works.......I don’t upload a lot.......but there have been days I have gone into my Skins page and there have been just under half my submissions with downloads......going right back to the first ones........always surprises me......and that’s only from gallery links.......
the standard of the wallpaper gallery at the moment is at the highest, I think, since I’ve been here, making it a bit more of a stretch.......don’t put all your eggs in the one basket.........try a few galleries in the meantime.......
you know thats sounds like a plan! ive thought about it but maybe now i will act on that algorithm!
although i do not know how to make a bootskin or a logon...i tried the logon approach but it was a little trickier than i expected. the bootskins are something im skittish about because it deals alot with system files just like logons or wblinds but on a more intimate level with startup files that include ones that can lead to highly unstable loading if misplaced or reconfigured......
i already had a few BOD's using Bootskin so far (BOD's are blue screens of death) these BOD screens contain a memory address with highly erroneos code loaded into it (i.e. stuff like the following:: "Ex000909888 You computer suffered a system failure. you may need to restart your system to help fix this problem.. if this problem persists, contact microsoft")
if i can learn a little bit about these two apps you mentioned (i will probably lookup some stuff today on how windows loads and what files there are that play a role in this process and how you can modify them without creating erronious code, then i might feel alittle bit more comfortable
as in i dont want to create something that will wreck someones day or computer in the likings...
bootskins and logons do interest me nonetheless! thank you sydney for the insight on that idea that i had forgot about for over three months! you all here on WC are pretty tactical when it comes to this stuff thats for shure..i gotta start thinkin like you all!
thx again!
