Please Assist With Stupid Problem

Im trying to use my computer desktop as a picture frame, putting nice art on it and making the desktop icons invisible. The problem is when I switch the desktop icons off the resolution of the picture goes to shit. WHen I turn them on, it looks much better. Can anyone tell me how to stop this change? And does anyone know of any good wallpaper sites with high res pics of good pieces?

Just on the last point, I like www.artchive.com, which has a pretty extensive collection of free, downloadable art.

 

But it's not a wallpaper site per se, and the quality might vary across pieces depending on what you want ... but I've always used it for my backgrounds, I guess just because it's such an extensive collection in one place and still free.

What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you but I know that it's mine.

Switch the desktop icons off? How are you doing that? :)

 

If what you want is like a slide show or something, you could get ACDSee or use the windows slideshow screen saver.

 

 

I meant hiding them Dom. Ill have to look into this windows slideshow screen saver thingy, thanks!

 

Demagogue Ill check out that site too, sounds good, thanks fellas.

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
