Great script, very helpful. Only one small bug that I've found so far. I have a Windows application that I run using Crossover Wine. The command is:

/opt/cxoffice/bin/wine "/home/sean/.cxoffice/dotwine/fake_windows/Program Files/QuickPar/QuickPar.exe"

iLaunch will not run this no matter how I formatted it. I ended up having to create a shell script to run it, and that finally worked.

Still though, great all around. - Jun 13 2004

I like it. The only thing is 90% of people have their icons running along the left hand side of the desktop. This would cover up your text. Maybe having the text on the right side would work better for me. :) - Jun 12 2004

Yes, nice quote. I ran into it a few months ago while writing an article comparing Bush to Hitler.

But its no good as a splash screen. Better as a wallpaper. - Jun 10 2004

While it may be that time a year, when young adults are being handed that diploma they've worked so hard for, and would probably love some kind of class of '04 wallpaper, I don't think anyone wants a picture of YOUR graduation. These "wallpapers" were also thrown together pretty quickly without much style or ambition. Sorry for the sharp criticism, but I can't imagine why you posted these. - Jun 09 2004

Hmm.. I suppose you can have copyrighed images under the GPL, its just not something I've seen often. :) - Jun 04 2004
Cool picture, but I'm confused. You have a (c) in the description, which I take to mean 'copyright', but you've released the wallpaper as GPL? - Jun 04 2004

Check out the images for the 2dr Hardtop. I think its an exact match. - Jun 03 2004
Its a cool picture!

Not to turn this entire post into a political thing, but lets not forget we (Americans) have recieved just as much help from the Europeans in our own wars. Without the French, we may not have won the war for our own independance. Your making it sound a bit like, "We keep helping and helping you with nothing in return, and yet you dislike us." They have made plenty of sacrifes for us. The fact that many Americans forget this might have something to do with their dislike of us.

Oh, and I'm an active duty United States Marine, if that means anything. ;) - Jun 02 2004

I think I've deleted the original files for this. This splash screen was really more of an experiment and I really didn't have any plans to continue the project. - Jun 02 2004

Ok, I went ahead and made two new variations on the splash screen without text. The Gimp source code is still the original, and you can easily take out what you don't like through that method. Plus some of the leaves are on different layers, so its easy to slip other text or images between the leaves.

If anyone makes some cool changes go ahead and put them up. This is GPL after all. :) - Jun 01 2004
Its there.. download "The Gimp source code". :) - May 31 2004

Well it wouldn't be pratical for me to make a new one for every icon set request. But if you email me I'd more than happy to explain how to use The Gimp to use the icons you want. Its really simple. - May 29 2004

Yep, your right about a lot of that. All in all it was just an experiment. I wanted to 1) bring the text/image down into the bottom bar, to 'blur the lines' between the top and bottom, and 2) try a transparent background & a semi transpart image. It seems to work well.

I'll prob revamp this soon to something more pretty. :) - May 27 2004

I tend to go for simple & clean, and usually kinda dark. Here is what I've been using.

This is pretty cool to go with the 1040 wallpaper, but the icons need to be changed since they don't match the rest of the scheme. But cool anyway.
