Themes
Friday, July 20, 2007 by GustheGuideDog | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
First of all thank you for your help yesterday, as you are aware I am registered blind although I can see about 12 inches. I go to a club for people with disabilities of all kinds. I would like people to explain to us how to create Bootskins, also if not too much problems would people be able to try and make an animated desktop theme with sound for us please.
If I post my email address here ( [email protected] ) would you be able to send them to me directly as I am not sure how to download from this website. Thank You

Hello once again, I use Windows XP home edition with service pack 2. What I would like is an animated wallpaper (if possible with guide dog puppys on ) and if possible with sound.

Animated wallpapers are only realistically possible in Windows Vista Ultimate (which you would have to buy and upgrade your current operating system which may not be all that advisable). It's an expensive beast.

Thank You for your advise and as we are a voluntary group I think we will stick with XP we can't afford any great expense.
