Post a picture of your desktop!

You say it's bland, but I say I like this elegance better than hacking system DLLS in Windows XP so it doesn't look like I'm living in 1998.

Because those one-click patchers are so difficult to use that you needed to think of a blatant hyperbole to supplement your whining, right?

Regardless, I'm not going to try and change your opinion. If you like generic OSX then thats of course your choice.

It really sounds like you're the one whining. Back when I was using Windows if you didn't like what a patch used, you had to go in and manually change things yourself.

It seems like the classy thing to do would be either not comment if you don't like it or be nicer about it, but perhaps that's asking too much.

I too have no plans on changing your opinion. I like my set up. While I might have used a slightly different theme if Shapeshifter wasn't garbage, it is and I won't, so there we are. In Tiger the default theme was terrible so I changed it to Uno - which looks pretty much like Leopard (and wasn't a Shapeshifter theme - it replaced system files itself). In Leopard it's not so bad - I'd rather have a system where I don't have to worry about haxies than one that looks cool and has conflicts.

EDIT: Bah, I'm being overly critical. The genericness of this thread is just getting under my skin.

I suggest as a solution to the criticisms of the desktops here to create a customization thread, especially for people who want to be critiqued on their desktop, or learn how to customize their OS. I think I'll start one just now.

Press Prnt Screen, then go to paint and press paste to get your desktop screenshot. [If you have Windows].

If you have trouble, you might have to use the Fn key with it, or just go to the On screen keyboard.

why the hell is everything in japanese?
ug... how geeky.

Quite possibly because s/he lives in Japan?

More on topic, it just seems like one of the more bloated of the generic OSX desktops we've been seeing. Nice wallpaper though.

But the person in question himself isn't Japanese.

That is true. But if it weren't for bilingual people like myself (or tri, since I speak something else), no one would be translating those games you play, officially or unofficially.

I was being funny

Plus, I've been called it enough for it to be ok for me to be big-headed

 

[Twiffles]

Now what does that have to do with anything? I'm bilingual (trilingual once I finish French) and I don't translate games. And you said to me you were an English teacher in a PM, so I mean you could be a translator but...

Most localization teams for America are in America, save a few exceptions.
