Very cool!

Think I'll hang around for this one!

So funny...you really do "quack" me up!! 

Nice concept RedneckDude.

I laughed at the name.  Htanks.

Considering the present state of DesktopX, it is funny...unintended, but funny...lol!! 

I looked thsi up in hte Zubish dictionary you snet me adn it's not in three.

Oh yeah, and I really like the concept and execution of this new DX theme of yours, RND, it's quite THE thing.

Thanks Starkers...and it's in THE gallery...lol!

My tester, Wizard1956, got home from work sooner than I had anticipated! 

Just some more shameless self-promotion, but what the heck, if it makes DesktopX more interesting, I guess that's alright.

Something else--it looks like you're pulling a Murex on us; your graphics are looking pretty slick. I really like the look of it, and that's a good name.

Is there any chance of getting some tabbed docks to go with this? I have more than a hundred shortcuts and I couldn't get them all on the hangars.

Oh goodie.... DX doesn't get as much airtime as it perhaps should here, but this theme will have me dusting off the cobwebs presently. I'll go download it and fire up the old app to see how it looks in use. 

  Hang in there and I'll let you know how it goes.

Well I left a comment under the skin to say that I really like the theme but was having problems with elements not responding well to commands, but that issue is not exclusive to Hang in There.  I tried some of the tried and true themes from way back and they are also exhibiting these response issues. 

Thing is, it's not just DX components!   When a DX theme is applied, I have issues with opening the sys tray and start menu, etc.... they display momentary lags/freezing.  When DX is unloaded all goes back to normal, so I believe it may be related to issues with DX in Win 7 x64.  Pity, I was looking forward to using this in conjunction with a Harley theme I was putting together.

That is what the folder shortcut is for on the menu. If you follow the link in the description, there is a good tutorial on how to set your rig up for use with all my themes.

Docks?.....We'll see.  

I also left a comment in the gallery stating that this theme was made on 64 bit 7, so it must be something else on your system conflicting with DX.

I wish I could create the error here, so I could maybe fix it.

Hey, are you using DX 4.0?

Try 3.5. I can't do anything with 4.0.

Yep... version 4.0 it is.   Now that I look back on it, it has only been since I applied the 4.0 update that I've experienced this issue.  So no, it's not a Win 7 conflict or the theme. 

That's my next move.... fortunately I have an archived copy of 3.5 saved in Impulse.  Goody, I'll be able to use this and other themes now.

Thanks for the heads up/thought/reminder. 

You're very welcome Matey!

Updated Desktop Shot.

BTW, I made some improvements and am going to update the skin. Sorry guys, it just gets better. 

Well that's it then!  Won't be running that POS DX program on my rig again.  Reverted back to 3.5 and everything went to shit after I loaded a theme.  I kept getting a zip code error message that would not be canceled and kept going around in circles.. over and over... and fucking over.  Nothing on my desktop would work... NOTHING!!!  No start menu, no sys tray.... eff all.... not even ctrl alt del to run task manager to shut DX down.

I had to do a hard shutdown and reboot into safe mode to get rid of the POS... and I'm so pissed right now!!!!!!!   40 minutes out of my day. 

GRRRRRRR!!!!!!!

*End Rant*

Sorry, RND, it's not your theme... they ALL eff up big-time... because of this POS

This usually only happens if you try to run the old weather widgets. The ones made before the TWC people took our feed. If that's it, just be sure to run the new weather widgets.

Sorry you're having troubles. 3.5 is very stable for me on XP, Vista, and 32/64 bit 7. 

Yeah, I had a brain snap before... sorry.  I had a pounding headache and just got angry cos nothing was going right.

Yeah, I realise that, but when DX loaded it automatically installed the last used theme, an older one with the old weather feed.  From there it all went downhill and I couldn't recover control of my desktop. 

In essence then, all of those older themes are now useless.  I know that you updated all yours, but I'm not so sure a lot of these have been. Anyway, I'll uninstall DX 3,5 completely, run a cleaner and try again with a clean themes folder, adding only themes with updated weather widgets.  Hmm, I'll have to delete a lot of my objects and widgets, then.  Most of them are pre-change over and will no longer work.

Anyhow, that'll all have to wait until tomorrow.  Right now I'm going to have another shot at getting some much needed sleep.
