"Experience is what you get, when you don't get what you want", I used to say....

the $$ spent for Object Desktop is nothing compared to what you get back. As with everything, it's a process to learn how to use all this information, and there is an awful lot, but taking things 1 step at a time, going thru the same mistakes a few times over, it all starts to make sense, there is a basic format, rules to follow, and the pleasure of creating your VERY PERSONAL desktop, albeit, using other people's designs, is so rewarding. My wife will atest, I have been playing with OD for about 2 weeks now, when not working or sleeping, and have realized that "I have potential in this arena", WAY DOWN THE ROAD. Using these programs has not only made my desktop feel like my own, but I'm learning the basic hierarchy of how a computer does what it does, ie, starts at the city, finds the street, finds the house, finds the door, finds the room, finds the closet, finds the hanger. Well, back to improving the learning curve, I hope. Talk to ya"ll soon........Atlantis8

Welcome - this is a pleasant addiction...I too, just started a couple of months back...I have narrowed my favorite skins down to approximately 150! But someone is always coming up with something spectacular that I just have to try out!

I saw a pretty dumb quote the other day. As dumb as it is it seems to fit.
Veni Vidi Velcro...I came , I saw, I got stuck.

Hey atlantis8, welcome to the club, the addiction of rearranging desktops with the never ending source of fantastic skins. The thing is, have you started dreaming themes yet? Well I have, lol, and it beats nightmares about working and tax returns. And rehab, who needs rehabilitation!
About the only drawback is the additional cost of coffee. OH, and the wife's complaints about so many nights missed going to bed. Oh well, that's the price we pay, lol.
Seriously tho, OD is a great product, and this forum is a great place for us newbies to learn and share our new-found experiences. Best wishes to all newbies and have fun
