New WinUAE Desktop :D

I saw a thread for 'real' Amiga desktops but not one for WinUAE desktops.
I really like this new look, I just had to show you all!
I found the picture after doing a bit of googling then I edited it a bit then made it into a 800x600 wall with Paintshop Pro 9.
Feels very oldskool Amiga, gotta love Eric Schwartz Animations

THIG = TCD's Harddrive Installed Games At one point I thought it was fun to try to install as many games from disk with WB 1.3 as possible. Ended with me fiddling a lot with WB itself though

Oh and a bonus screenshot to show THIG's preconfigured skins



@Sting
It's WB 1.3, but it's KS 2.04

Sure, you can copy the files from the WB disks over to a HD

@Sting
I know I also have a 'beefed down' KS 1.3 version

Oh and have I mentioned that is has a splashscreen during startup and music playing in the background? ;D

You still code new demos for Amiga?

Yeah, I do. Though these days it's "code the demo at work or not at all" as I don't really feel like coding when I come back from work.

Same applies here, if I can do the slaves at work, no prob, but that's not always possible. Plus, I prefer doing slaves for demos anyway. I guess I only do demo slaves and slaves for football games
