Maddmatt, thanks a lot for the tutorial man. For the last few days my routine was : Go to work and mess around with active desktop. This thing got me hooked and thanks to you, here is my desktop now.(Attachment on botton of page)
I have one question though:
Im having problems with the Notepad. I can't save.
I've read the posts almost twenty times now and i still don't understand.
This is my script:
I remember reading something about creating a shortcut or something similar, i don't get that ! I thought was just paste it into notepad, save a blank Txt file into c:// windows and last, turn on active desktop.
My last question is:
Does active desktop use a lot of system resources ?? Cuz' start up slowed down a little.
Thanks a lot for the tutorial and keep up the great work!!!
