Let's see those desktops (rev 4.0)

[Z]

How do you like that huge CRT? I heard that they were great monitors, and a lot of photo editors still use the giant CRTs.

I've had this monitor for about 3 years and it's the best monitor I've ever had. I've always owned CRT monitors and probably won't be purchasing an LCD anytime in the near future. I got a pretty good steal on this one by trading a buddy my old Hi-8 camera that was barely worth half the price of the monitor if you had purchased it new.

Anyway, I'm not sure if it's just a matter of not fine-tuning the monitor, but in most cases that I've used an LCD, the colors just appear a bit washed. Aside from this, I dislike the odd resolutions of most LCDs. Since I'm working in Photoshop with large photos most of the time, I enjoy a 'proper' resolution and the ability to crank it up above, say, 1900 pixels.

Vista Business finally came in, so I made the transition.

I've had Vista Ultimate in dual boot with XP, and I hate it. I can't play any games of mine on it well, it hogs sooo much RAM.

Just don't ask how I got hold of it

i changed some icons in my dock and removed quick launch just to make it look better 👍



and one more thing, has anyone been experiencing firefox running slower than usual? on my machine, it seems it has, and i'm thinking of switching to opera...

 

[Tornado]

Lemme see your task list when it is running after 10 minutes or so. If you have a data leak, Firefox would be going slower.

.........sorry, i don't get you mean.....

 

[PLmatt91]

I love me setup sooo much right now:



Sorry for the low quality though, Imageshack wasn't letting me upload a high quality shot dude to the size the image was

 

[Vonie]

You know you're just going to change it tomorrow, Matt. I like it though, high res?

 

[Tornado]

.........sorry, i don't get you mean.....

This:

Firefox should be at around 60-80k of memory usage when it is idling. However, if you have a memory leak it will shoot up into the high 100s and run slower. It can be fixed by uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox.

 

[Law93]

oh, that. firefox has been running around there, but it still seems slow...

 

[PLmatt91]

You know you're just going to change it tomorrow, Matt. I like it though, high res?

Nah dude I really won't. Here's the high res version package because there's other ones, and plus, Imageshack won't load the high quality-lessness of it. Andddddd you have to resize to your liking, they're widescreen :/

Uh, the various public betas, which were all Ultimate edition and freely available? Or maybe one of the pre-RTM builds which used the same activation key as the original Beta?

I've tried so many different builds I can't remember them all, but this is the legitimate Vista.

If the dimensions on the previous page (the GTR picture) are correct, this one is 825px high and should suit what you need.

The original isn't wide enough for your monitor. When you set it as the wallpaper, select "Center" not "Stretch" to keep the proportions. (Provided you're on Windows)

Enjoy.



And here are my desktops from my first week back at work after the holidays. Taking a break from the cars for a while...
