To remove the arrows with XP-

folder called LNKFILE>Single click on the folder>In the right pane right click on
IsShortcut and click delete.

To change the icon with XP-
Right click on the icon>Properties>Shortcut>Change icon.

Ya can create your own custom icon like I did for my VX Documents folder.

I do NOT have a single folder or window, on my desktop.
I do have tons of custom icons and custom menu's.
My computer screen is CLEAN, but my desk's top is cluttered :p
OSX:dance:

I hate that too. A former technician at work used to change all the computers to that and I would put it back. I finally had him fired.... J/k he did that to himself. Now all how I want them

Since I can't put what I want as a background on my screen, I printed the pic I referenced earlier (post #56) as an E size drawing & put it on my wall. The resolution wasn't quite good enough ... but I likey.

Don't tell my boss but I think I killed a brand new ink cartridge:)

OK, managed to make it my desktop - pretty sweet.

Vulcan? You mean like Star Trek? If so, sorry, am not and have never been a Trek fan, heh. If some other Vulcan, that completely went over my head, you may have to explain some more so it can sink into my dense skull.

No sir, but there is a complete folder, updater, and executable icon and link to the Fallout 3 test, hehe. Ooops, I leaked the test icon. :p

WormGod,

Zeus has referred to me in the past as the lesser god Vulcan. I was just feebly attempting to steal some of his noteriety.

Here is my screen....

Graham Watson is the best cycling photographer around. He gets some amazing shots.

This is my winter screen...

Here is my latest work one. It changes a lot though....

I am using Yahoo Widgets wich is cool cause I can have it have the images display in the corner, scrolling through my picture folder. That is why Justin appears twice.

You were also in some good pictures so look at it how you want...

My desktop is an image of the inside album cover of King Crimson's "In the Court of the Crimson King."
Attachment 776

The outside cover of the same album was once my desktop but was deemed too disturbing by my family.

Could one of the Photoshop wizards please splice in a VX onto that standard Windows sand-dune picture? That's what I really want!

I thought I would get a start towards the new year at work and change my desktop.
