Some advice (You don't have to take it! ;))
1, Remove all the folders from your desktop and move them to My Documents..It will shave a few seconds off your startup time
2, Decide whaticons you DON'T need and delete them

3, You can sit back, see your background
and Alistair's brain can handle it! :lol: :D

Are you using Windows Blinds to get that taskbar style?

I cleaned my desktop up especially, but i'm still hoping it's going to annoy a certain someone :).

Acctually, I suppose you wouldn't have anything against that, would you Tom?

444's where they belong... on the Portsmouth Line...


(Although I say let the Portsmouth line users group have 158s... that'd shut them up...)

Sorry for the bump, but wanted opinions on this...

Artistic, or just plain weird?!

1, Clear the unused icons
2, Move the installers to a designated folder somewhere else

Oh, and why, oh why, do you use BitTorrent:?::!:

All P2P networks are pretty nasty - can't condone it here of course, but RIAA/MPAA/MS/EMI/etc are all placing "false" torrents on the networks to get peoples IP addresses.

Indeed they are. Myself, I cannot under any circumstances, condone it.


But, I have been told that BitComet or Azures are a lot quicker and easier to use..but obviously I haven't tried them.
