FL desktop theme...

[raiderrescuer]

Could we put together a desktop theme for the Lounge?

Maybe use something like MS "Traveler" icons & sounds...it includes an old style camera, book set, globe & leather suitcase.
The Screensaver could be pictures used in the forum.
If the banner were bigger it would make a nice desktop background.

Just a thought!

How about a classic Western Electric ringer box for e-mail notification?

I was just thinking about this very topic the other day - in Plus for Windows98, there was Golden Era theme and screensaver. They didn't carry it over to Plus for WindowsXP though. I've been meaning to dig out my old laptop and load that up and see if it can be converted to a Windows XP version. It was all sepia-toned 30-40's photos and did have things like the big 4' tall radios, steam trains, and the like.

I was going to PM MK about but I'll tell everyone

How about adding emoticons from the Foyle's War site?

I believe they are okeh for anyone to use.

There are some "retro" type themes at the "deviantart" website, maybe some could be customized into something suitable?
