So I just tricked out my logon screen on Vista by manually editing imageres.dll. And by "tricked out," I mean I got rid of that horrible teal monstrosity. The logon screen looks surprisingly good with a pure black background; the transparent icons make it look very sleek.

Captain Fabio June 28th, 2009 1:06 PM

I have changed my Vista log on page to a strange, swirly black and red background. Looks a lot better than the original >.>

True Reign June 28th, 2009 1:14 PM

How do you change the logon background? I could never find out, lol.

Captain Fabio June 28th, 2009 1:21 PM

I use a program called "Tuneup Utilities"
It is free for a month.

You can clean up your computer to the max.
It also has a lot of different functions.

It does the job for me :D

True Reign June 28th, 2009 1:24 PM

Lol alright. I may download it. :P

Captain Fabio June 28th, 2009 1:27 PM

I recommend it.
=]

Have fun with it.
It is easy too use, so don't worry about getting confused...
Wow, that was patronizing. Sorry! XD

Depends how much you want to edit. Personally, I just ResHacked all the images in imageres.dll so that they were black nothings. That didn't require any programs (besides ResHack, I guess). Or you could use StarDock LogonStudio, which is an amazing program that I recommend to everyone.

YATTA!~ I found it! The wandering thread always tends to elude me x3


Captain Fabio June 28th, 2009 4:09 PM

Yatta? *_*'

Any who.
Being on the discussion of Computers. i7 Core.

Does anyone own a i7 computer?
If so, how does it run?
Compared to the standard CPU's of today.

I am running at Q6600 CPU at 3.0GHz.
I do not own, nor have I come incontact with a i7 CPU/computer, so I can't compare myself.

Gerri Shin June 28th, 2009 7:19 PM

I've heard they're ok, I'm still running a t8300 Core2Duo and it's still rocking along better than most.
I think the most recent Desktop model CPu I've got is an AMD Athlon XP 1.2GHz.

Zet June 28th, 2009 7:23 PM

I'm happy to see this thread again, now where should I move it to?

Mitchman June 28th, 2009 9:38 PM

bit.trip void June 28th, 2009 9:40 PM

Yo, I like to wear bling,
I dislike to sing,
DO YOU LIKE MY RING?

Yeah, it sucked. :D.

seeker June 28th, 2009 9:44 PM

Hmmm i'll post a poem by me then!

Title
Realization of a Heart in Peices

Poem next.

Finally you realize what it's like to be alone,
You've always had someone to fall back on but now you feel the pain,
all you can do all day is sit up on your throne
but no one there to hide you
You run up steps,
you break the glass,
Only hidden by your anger...
But in the end you know...



Thats not the way you'll find her...

And i actually made an effort xD

beauty. proletariat June 28th, 2009 10:22 PM

Switchback June 29th, 2009 5:00 AM

Browsing the Forums with a tune filled mind,
Headphones in leaving the world behind,
Reading on events that happened in games,
Or clubs that are seriously lacking new names,
Back on the main board I search once again,
Catching sight of something that's gaining fame,
Do my eyes decieve me and mess with my head?
No, once again it's the Wandering Thread!


destinedjagold June 29th, 2009 5:41 AM

I have wondered far and wide...
Trying to find the thing on my mind...
The time passed me by...
I went through the hot sun and the evening sky...

All the trials I faced...
I surpassed just for me to see...
The thing I tried to ace...
But nothing is where I came to be...

And now I decided to give up...
I closed my eyes and listened to the night's song...
And when I decided to open my eyes...
The Wondering Thread was just here all along...

Netto Azure June 29th, 2009 8:41 AM

I totally missed the Computers & Technology Section. :<

Well I suck at poetry. Even free-verse~

Opposite Day June 29th, 2009 12:01 PM

I'm a little dot.
If I get mad I listen to slipknot
For what I care this poem might rot
But at least I gave it a shot

*sighs*

Loki June 29th, 2009 1:38 PM

I
suck
at
poetry

^Best I can do. D:

Percy Thrillington June 29th, 2009 2:19 PM

It's funny,
This thread.

When I'm happy,
It gets posts.

When I'm sad,
It's abandoned.

It's funny,
This thread.

Yeah, especially given the fact that the mod's away. XD Nice job, guys.

I'd offer angsty deep poetry in response to fit in with the general theme of the forum, but frankly, having studied poetry for three years straight (because that's apparently all an English major does at my school), instead, I'm going to offer limericks.
