I wrote a javascript to change it every time my computer boots up. There's all kinds of stuff in its list. Almost every cool image on my computer that fills the screen is there somewhere.

Did you just put the script into the start up folder? And also, I thought .js is not allowed to change write any files. Am I wrong, or are you actualy accessing the windows config from the .js?

It's an HTML desktop. As well as a link to switch the picture in one corner, javascript refreshes the background-image style onLoad. It doesn't change any files or settings.

I mostly use digitalblasphemy's wallpapers, and some new ones of Unreal II. Don't think i'm crazy - i really love this game, even though, it is mostly poinltess violence like Andrew said, however, the ending really got me....

(I can't attach files, so i won't show you which ones exactly i use)

indeed, active content is a good feature, however it tends to make my backgrounds look pixelly, although it's been a while since I tried, maybe I was missing something.

I use "designing the future" by kultdesign, it's on this page (found on google):

I am sure there are programs out there that do something similar. My TV viewing program (I have a TV tunner in my PC), for example, can output the selected chanel on the background instead of the wallpaper. Not much of a reason to do it, though, since if you are working on something the windows would cover the bacground, and if you don't, you can just switch it into the full screen mode.

The point was that setting the bacground as HTML would allow to do such things a lot easyer. I have writen a small HTML program (that uses VML) a while ago that outputs a wireframe cube onto the page. With some modifications that can be extended to any 3D object, and that can be used for some very cool effects.

I don't want a 3D desktop. I don't have any icons on my 2D one; they're all on Quicklaunch. It's just a picture for the computer to display when it has nothing else to put there.

Though I sometimes put AVS on the desktop and the background of MS Word (instead of the grey behind the page) when I'm working on something dull.

There was one I came across once, called 3DNA I think. It was cool, you could wonder round on this kind of space ship thingy. There was a panel with all your icons on, a fish tank where you could download things and they would be Displayed as fish in the tank. There was a stress target range. It was awesome.

here's my 2 cents. zipped the wallpaper since it's over 468x468 and i don't want to resize it down too much.
anyways:
- my wallpaper is always of the game i last got. thus it changes frequently :p
- i tend to keep my desktop organized. games on bottom, applications and stuff on top, and not too many icons so as to not clutter up the wallpaper. only frequently used stuff.
- to make the wallpaper better visible i make the desktop icons semi-transparent (they are fully visible when selected)
- cookie to who can guess the Object Desktop (http://www.stardock.com) applications i use. you can also try to guess the cursor and/or window skin, if you want. meh.

Aston - http://www.astonshell.com

It also changes the start bar. I'm still getting to grips with it (only got it earlier today), there are many good things but a couple of annoyances (very small ones though, and probably things I have overlooked).

I've got the trial version. Hopefully when it runs out I can just redownload/reinstall and add my theme again. I'm still editing it - I still need to find a nice Windows XP theme, I'm not sure if it can change the colours of the windows, and I also need to find a firefox theme which will fit in (the website seems to be playing up). Oh and find a nice cursor, but it's coming along nicely:).

I've found an even better skin which has a cursor to go with it. The only problem is, the windowblinds file has normal text light grey/white. So anything in a box like the address bar I can barely read at all. Also when I went onto my website it had changed the black font to grey. I have tried editing the text colours using the window blinds editor but it's not changing what I want it to change so I don't know where the colour I need to change is in the menu....

If you want to help then it's called Copper Deck II. Search for it on skinbase and you'll find it.

If the two blobs were of a mercury-like color it would look much better.whatever reason you give, it's ugly. end of story...:p

Perhaps that background image could be used to help depressive people.
If you look at it everyday, you suddenly see how beautiful your life actually is.
