New theme, new font, new wallpaper (thanks to cb_linus for the link to pixelgirl) and like a lot of people here it seems, lovin' PyPanel!

Ha. That would be about like a "Problems with windows" thread reaching its end. Unlikely.

Screenshots are fun.

And, I'm just glad that most of them get put here instead of all over the site.

Here's my current shot -

people have told me that they have the ability to make linux look just like windows to the point of fooling a regular windows user. well i have never seen one to fool me before until i found this theme in kde-look.org.
now before i get flamed and asked why i did this here is the explanation. my wifes computer is in the shop and she needs to get onto mine for some simple things like chat, web browsing, game play. so i let her use mine. she knows that it is linux but this is slowly helping her move over.
hey at least she is using it..... before she wouldn't even touch it.... lol

melinda_sayang, your shot is very nice....

Nevertheless, the thing that I most liked and was amused by when I read it on the page where you are hosting your shot...was the following text on the bottom of the page:

"This website will not displayed correctly with Internet Explorer browser because png files do not show transparency in Internet Explorer by default. Make sure you have png supported browser like Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, Konqueror, or Netscape."

Because I am so sick of going to site where it says that the page won't disply correctly if you are not using Internet Explorer...yooohooo to this website!!

I know it's slightly off-topic, but if you want to be kind on IE users, there is a js hack that will display PNG files correctly. It's strange how such a simple js hack can fix this, yet MS haven't corrected this issue. Pretty rediculous really. :|

But if you do care about them, you can use this little bit of code:

Code:

<!--[if gte IE 5.5000]>
<script language="JavaScript">
function correctPNG() // correctly handle PNG transparency in Win IE 5.5 or higher.
   {
   for(var i=0; i<document.images.length; i++)
      {
	  var img = document.images[i]
	  var imgName = img.src.toUpperCase()
	  if (imgName.substring(imgName.length-3, imgName.length) == "PNG")
	     {
		 var imgID = (img.id) ? "id='" + img.id + "' " : ""
		 var imgClass = (img.className) ? "class='" + img.className + "' " : ""
		 var imgTitle = (img.title) ? "title='" + img.title + "' " : "title='" + img.alt + "' "
		 var imgStyle = "display:inline-block;" + img.style.cssText 
		 if (img.align == "left") imgStyle = "float:left;" + imgStyle
		 if (img.align == "right") imgStyle = "float:right;" + imgStyle
		 if (img.parentElement.href) imgStyle = "cursor:hand;" + imgStyle		
		 var strNewHTML = "<span " + imgID + imgClass + imgTitle
		 + " style=\"" + "width:" + img.width + "px; height:" + img.height + "px;" + imgStyle + ";"
	     + "filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader"
		 + "(src=\'" + img.src + "\', sizingMethod='scale');\"></span>" 
		 img.outerHTML = strNewHTML
		 i = i-1
	     }
      }
   }
window.attachEvent("onload", correctPNG);
</script>
<![endif]-->

breakerfall, I know that already. But I am not a good web developer. I build my website with Mozilla Composer. I knew a little bit about javascript. Just a little bit. So I don't know where I should put the code above into my html page. I can do it for sure. But it take a long time. So make the png file display correctly in Internet Explorer is in my to do list. I m not sure when I will do it. But not now. If you can tell me where I should put the code above, that would be nice....

Thank you.

Yeah I like this one. Clean and simple. Where did you get that wallpaper?

I'll be honest, I too haven't had the time to study Java script yet - but the segment of code goes between the <head> tags at the beginning of your html. It's fully explained on the link I supplied. For example:

Code:

<html>

<head>
<title></title>
<!--[if gte IE 5.5000]>
<script language="JavaScript">
function correctPNG() // correctly handle PNG transparency in Win IE 5.5 or higher.
   {
   for(var i=0; i<document.images.length; i++)
      {
	  var img = document.images[i]
	  var imgName = img.src.toUpperCase()
	  if (imgName.substring(imgName.length-3, imgName.length) == "PNG")
	     {
		 var imgID = (img.id) ? "id='" + img.id + "' " : ""
		 var imgClass = (img.className) ? "class='" + img.className + "' " : ""
		 var imgTitle = (img.title) ? "title='" + img.title + "' " : "title='" + img.alt + "' "
		 var imgStyle = "display:inline-block;" + img.style.cssText 
		 if (img.align == "left") imgStyle = "float:left;" + imgStyle
		 if (img.align == "right") imgStyle = "float:right;" + imgStyle
		 if (img.parentElement.href) imgStyle = "cursor:hand;" + imgStyle		
		 var strNewHTML = "<span " + imgID + imgClass + imgTitle
		 + " style=\"" + "width:" + img.width + "px; height:" + img.height + "px;" + imgStyle + ";"
	     + "filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader"
		 + "(src=\'" + img.src + "\', sizingMethod='scale');\"></span>" 
		 img.outerHTML = strNewHTML
		 i = i-1
	     }
      }
   }
window.attachEvent("onload", correctPNG);
</script>
<![endif]-->
</head>

Also, nice screenie Dswissmiss. :-)
