I have a laptop but the wallpaper is just a cork noticeboard with a picture of my nephews on it...it's a photoshopping masterpiece but only I appreciate it.

Spanks · 18-Jun-2007, 20:13

how do you get animated windows backgrounds in vista??

Neutron · 18-Jun-2007, 20:30

You need the ultimate edition. You should get some examples with that. Otherwise there is an app called stardock (not sure if it will run on anything but ultimate) I think it does..

If you look really closely you can just make out some icons.

Noodles, which version of vista you got?

If its ultimate, put the enhancement pack on or whatever the fook its called. Then if the gfx card and processor is meaty enough, add the animated backgrounds. :-)

Edit: Bah Neutron beat me to it ... bugger, teach me not to read whole thread!

(Yay for Beryl and shiny desktop cubes)

[RaG]Ethel · 19-Jun-2007, 09:11

do you actually use it or just for show ?

the anti-aliasing (or lack of it) would really get on my wick after a while

Blood God · 19-Jun-2007, 09:12

I use it, the exposé features are very handy, as are multiple desktops. Especially once you start getting large numbers of windows open like I sometimes do. Things like wobbly windows are somewhat pointless though.
