Yeah, I just figured out today that if I had Leopard, I would have a perfectly clean system.
A nice stack for "Desktop" type files that I sort later, and stacked shortcuts from programs I use.

I just had my Multimedia Design class today, and it's actually the first time I've used Leopard for more than 10 minutes. So easy to keep clean...

Altec Lansing speakers rock. But the model I have makes it so the volume knob craps out on you in the first year, and causes a lot of static when you turn it.

I am trying to the imagine the significance of pylons...and slowly but inevitable my mind turns to the ideas of a society run by pylons, pylons power computer, pylon based power plants, water wheels turned by pylons, giant pylons whipping through the air to hit windmills to make pylon based power, cars running on pylons (clean burning pylons), burning pylons in the fireplace for warmth, satellites made of pylons, and lights made from pylons. It will be a truly glorious day. A day of rejoice, and ADDITIONAL PYLONS!!!! :shock:

Sorry about that, have always wondered why futuristic societies were restricted by the amount of pylons they had.
Also i very much enjoy that theme with the cartoon bubble icons.

Finally took the time to set my wallpaper up on Win7 on my laptop. Haven't touched the desktop yet. Should probably get rid of those two ini files and delete all the icons, though...

Thanks.
What icons did you get? I can't see to find it on DeviantArt, heh.
