It is from Synergy (iTunes pref pane utility). The floater is set to always being on and is the smallest size.

Same as last time, except that I have SmoothStripes Gloss 3.0.1 with Blue widgets (awesome theme), and it works very well with the PlasmaDesign desktop (named, "Going Up").

PlasmaDesign is amazing!

The work is just gorgeous, I'll have to become a member when I get home (I'm at school right now).

Thanks for the link.

OK, here's my latest:

It's a mix of Max Rudberg's Brushed, Aqua Extreme, Milk, and some transparent menus I got here

You're welcome! PlasmaDesign truly is amazing... the quality in Rob's work is unbeatable.

I joined up as a member of the site, and found some nice dual-display pics. They will make for good widescreen dekstops, even with one display.

The prints must be stunning. I would love one for my room

So far, I made this for my powerbook, since I wanted a little bit of both of the Aqua series. (the combo is made from free pics)

Hi Sage,

I am the owner and artist behind PlasmaDesign.co.uk. I just thought I would write a quick note to say thankyou for your very flattering comments. I surf the MacNN forums regularly. This is the first time i have seen someone comment on my work on this site.

Just to stay on topic, here is a screenshot of my desktop

Thankyou for your kind words

Rob Randtoul - PlasmaDesign.co.uk

Sage · May 4, 2003, 02:15 PM

Sure! You really deserve it, Rob

... BTW, how come I've never seen your work submitted to Resexcellence or the like?

(I think I've seen one at MacMonkies, but it seemed overlly compressed to me) Anyway, the quality in your work is astounding... I'd never have the patience or the initiative to work out the nitty gritty details like that.

And, to stay on-topic, here's my latest desktop.

I just checked your website out today and I must say that I'm impressed by the quality of your works. Most of the images are very nice-looking without making it too "Bryce-y". I'm looking forward to see your future works

My new one. Full view a must. Comments please!

Jasoco · May 5, 2003, 05:09 PM

Pretty cool. I like the use of color for only the fire.

If I had an X-men desktop, it'd be Rogue.

That dude has the lamest mutant power. I'd feel sorry for him, but he's also an ass.

Otherwise, it's pretty cool.

Yeah, he is kinda lame, but I love the pic, so I had to nerd it up!

I assume you mean the dock, and that is simple: Skin a Dock!

He may be an ass, but I'd give anything to be able to control fire.

Vi0 · May 5, 2003, 08:23 PM

The movies will never do X-men justice because the comic was set in a different time. Whenever I want X-men, i read some kick ass 60s and 70s comics. The 70s style is the best, but you won't ever see it on the silver screen. Too bad, but at least it isn't ruined.

I'd just like to say I was reading X-men before it was ever popular.

Jasoco · May 5, 2003, 08:29 PM

I'm not even a Comic Book person, but I do enjot movies about Comic Book characters. Batman, Superman, Spiderman, X-Men...

Vi0 · May 5, 2003, 08:33 PM

You should read the comic books. They're awesome. Much better. They grab your attention and you can't stop reading, just like a movie.

Stuphalina · May 5, 2003, 11:07 PM

I second that. As much as I enjoyed the movies, they cannot compare. Plus, with the amazing graphics in the comics, you have all the visuals right there.

Oh, you said your location was from "Homer"...

There's a "Homer, Alaska," on the southern tip of the main state. I've been there a few times but I move in and out of Alaska a lot and I thought you were talking about that town (I believe that's the only town named "Homer"...at least a known town named Homer). Sorry.

Stuphalina · May 5, 2003, 11:49 PM

OOOOh!
No, its from an episode of the Simpsons where Homer is at clown college and all of theme are asked where they are from and he just says; Homer!
But, okay!

Homer, AK, is a kick butt town. Hanging out on the spit is fun.

Swarmy Curve: How did you get that now displaying window with the artwork to appear in iTunes? Is this something standard?

Umm, I think you were referring to my pic, and although it looks like Synergy, its actually PTH iTunes notifier prefpane. Its more customizable. If you want the link I can give it to you b/c its not the latest version.
But it does look like synergy when used with white text.

Since this guy is not going to provide us with HIS background, does anyone know how to make the image he did provide look as it does in his screenshot?? I am refering to the image up a few by digitaljames.

I will pay for this

No really..

digitaljames · May 9, 2003, 07:12 PM

No I will not provide you with someone elses work I altered. It's called respect for another artist. If you wanna get written permission from Ethan for me to redistribute his work in a modified form then I will provide it. Otherwise, grab yourself a graphic editing program and get to learning.....
