I'm not a truck fan, but that's awesome! Where did you get that drawing?

[american_revolution_2005]

I got that drawing from GM wieck site. Search Silverado. It is one of 3 Silverado SEMA drawings. This one is the 427 Silverado, there is an OCC Silveraod drawing and a Dal JR. edition Silverado drawing. All are sweet and concepts...for now.

I like RON because it's more realistic than some other RTS war games. That's mainly because of the diplomacy mode. But I don't like it how my allies can be really stupid sometimes, making me do all of the work against the enemy.

It's still a good game, though.

I made mine in honor of my favorite webcomic. Natalie Dee is amazing.

Dodgefan, where did you get that sweet Start popup window? I'd like a different one, but not the same one.

go to htpp://themexp.org

You also need StyleXP for some of the themes. It costs money, unless of course, you have a hack for it

I have a program called StyleXP it lets you donload and use custom themes (skins). You can get the themes and the program at ThemeXP If I remember right the program comes as a trial, but you can find key gens for it

Found a keygen for StyleXp on one of my favorite sites. www.projectw.org. You will have to register in order to search, but it's really a message board like this one.

Gosh mine is really boring compared to the others. Strictly for work....and looking like a document from Dick Cheney's office. Well....can't give away the trade secrets.

[aaaantoine]

That's awesome!

But you totally need to change your background image from that snoozy MacOS default.

"wow, they're already test muling the C7!? Goldmine!"

[!!!TED!!!]

Heres mine. Win2000 ftw!

Btw, my screen ussualy looks like CD's, ie icons everywhere.

[aaaantoine]

Just got a new laptop this weekend. Here's the background I made for it:

[Northstar]

I have one of my Camaro color chops up now (black with red and white).

aaaantoine - that's awesome! Would you mind sending me one (PM or something) in 1680 x 1050?

[aaaantoine]

I wish I started it at a higher res.

Its native resolution was 1280 x 800, but there isn't much distortion in the resize.

[DetroitNut90]

Horseshoe Falls is so nice...I loved going to Niagara Falls. First venture out of the US, too.

[Paolino]

I'm so jealous I have absolutely no talent in photoshop. I can only do basics... never learned anything else. My friend bought me a beautiful pentab, and I'm like scared of it because I just can't control it like I can control a pencil or charcoal... I'd love to do some really cool stuff. Anyone know if Photoshop for Dummies might be a good investment for me? :AH-HA_wink: Maybe I'll make that a summer project.

Aaaantoine, gorgeous desktop... love it. Simple and classy.

I would pass it if i were you. its not that great plus I bet you want to live.

[capriceman]

for example only the water front looks decent.

[76ChevyTrucker]

Well, here are my various ones, I apologize for the size.

They're all pretty well aviation related in some way... All right, now quiz time, someone name me each of those aircraft!

Sweet, thanks aaaantoine!

Wrong on numbers 3, 7,8,9,11, and 12. I don't like the F-117 (damn ugly little goblin) and I couldn't find any good shots of the SR-71 Blackbird, or F4U Corsair.

Im pretty sure those are all right??

[76ChevyTrucker]

Those are all correct. To be more specific, its an AC-130U (the H model looks almos the same, but the U is the only model with the 105mm Howitzer stuck out of the side), F-4E, P-47D, P-51D, P-38G, A-10A (they're actually up to the C model on the 'hog now, wow), F-15A, F-15E, F-15C, and a C-130J. That's at least all the ones you named, there of course are still the ones you left blank.

[capriceman]

Drool^^^

I no the 1 but i cant think of its name

[76ChevyTrucker]

I like all those, except for the one of the F-117A Nighthawk. Its a good tactical bomber, but I don't like the fact that it has four flight control computers and if you lose one of them, that's right, just ONE, the whole damn plane stops flying.

[capriceman]

Ah Ha!! Finally after staring into that cluster bombs !!!

yeah, it should not be a F but a B! It was cutting edge and futuristic. When you see it in person your mind is in aww.

[76ChevyTrucker]

I've seen 'em in person. I've put my hands on one, even put my hand on one at this past year's air show. Its a conglomeration of parts: F/A-18 engines, F-15 landing gear and hydrualics, Gold-lined cockpit glass from the F-16, too many planes smashed together to get an unaerodynamic wonder. I'll give you #12, its an F-14D Super Tomcat breaking through the sound barrier.

I was talking about Niagara Falls... responding to Detroit, the guy who posted.

[DetroitNut90]

Yeah, Niagara Falls is great. A little advice, though--don't take a train up there. My parents thought it would be fun to take Amtrak up to NYC for the night, then another Amtrak up to Buffalo. It took 4 hours to get from Grand Central to Albany. And on top of that, we had a 2 hour layover there while like 2 people got on our train. Factor in another 3 hours to go from Albany to Buffalo...ugh. We traded our return train tickets in for a rental Mercury Sable. The Mounties are very thorough at examining you and your stuff, too. But the first full day up there, I decided that Ontario was way cooler than DC could ever hope to be.

Edit: The Falls are a sight to behold when they're illuminated.

Cool... love the one of an F-15 taking off like a rocket at a 45* angle.

Here's my current one, I took a break from V16 Cadillacs.
