I-Dom-In-8, this is how I do it.

1. Go to the desk top.
2. Press "Print Screen" key.
3. Open Power Point.
4. Click Control V
5. Save as a JPEG
6. Go to Webshots.com and upload the picture to one of your albums. (Free)
7. Open picture in Webshots after it downloaded.
8. Right click on picture and click on properties.
9. Copy the address.
10. Start a reply and click on "Image", then paste the address.

Should work.

Hey Hegoru, check out Aphex Twin's videos "Come To Daddy" and especially "Windowlicker." It will freak you out. I promise.

jcboeckl: How did you get that kick a$$ menu system? Is that part of Win XP? That looks so sweet. eek eek
Posted By: TheGreatOne Re: Screen shot time!!! - 11/03/01 03:36 AM
No, it's not windows xp...it's called a "shell" replacement....there's 2 I can think of right now, window blinds, and LiteStep...which takes alot more tweaking, but can produce some sweet results. Basically, they replace the windows shell (explorer.exe) and that's what allows you to change the appearance of stuff.....looks cool, but hey I don't have time for that stuff anymore lol

Posted By: jcboeckl Re: Screen shot time!!! - 11/03/01 03:54 AM
Yep you guessed it.

Its called Litestep. Its not too bad to do if your good with computers. Its took alot of editing but there are some sweet features.

Check out litestep.net there are alot of sweet themes you can get once you download it. But be carefull you can render you system unusable if your not carefull, not anything that couldn't be fixed but just might be a PIA if your not carefull.

AOL cheaped out and so the image is fuzzier than I'd like. But it's the quickest way I could get it online so here:
(if the image doesn't show up check it out here .)

Can anybody guess the 5 things that distinguish this as being a Windows computer screenshot NOT a Mac snapshot? (I'm serious here!)

Remind me not to use programs that aren't meant for XP. I about screwed my shiz up pretty good! Tried to install geoshell and some shell switching program called ShellOn... Uhhh... Didn't work too well smile Took me a little bit to figure out what I screwed up, but things are back to normal.

Didn't really like geoshell anyways, maybe if I had spent more time.

I'll mess w/ Litestep tomorrow, see what I can make it do.

Oh oh. I'll play!

1) WinTV
2) Shortcut arrows
3) Network neighborhood
4) Windows style printer icon (that's the first thing I noticed)
5) Volume control looks very windows-ish

Ooh - you got (almost) all and even one I overlooked! (#4).

I'll give away my fifth:
AOL, since I'm on AOL 7.0 and the highest version for Mac is still 5.0.

Good job Perry!! smile

Hold on, let me pick my jaw up from the ground....
OK, those pics are amazing. How do I get them, and/or what do I need.
Plus, if/since those are on XP, is it really worth the upgrade. I can get it for free from my school, should I. I am running 2000 pro, and am having no probs.
In XP, are there blue screens?

Ahhh, okay! My bad! I saw the "theme" and thought it was different OS! I answered my question after I scrolled down and saw someone else wrote ya!
Posted By: jcboeckl Re: Screen shot time!!! - 11/16/01 11:19 PM
ITs actually not really a theme but rather a Shell replacement called Litestep. Check out www.litestep.net
Posted By: Unlimited_Boost Re: Screen shot time!!! - 11/17/01 04:51 PM
OK, so i'm at the litestep website. what do I do now? do you just dl the 'themes' or is there a base prog. i have to dl first?

There's the actual shell, Litestep, that you have to download. Get LSDistro, makes getting going much easier, IMHO. Then install it. As long as you're not running XP (if you are, it's a little more involved), your next reboot should take you into Litestep. From there... big learning curve!

Your desktop as you know it in Explorer is gone, but that's alright, you didn't really need it anyways. Usually, a right click on the desktop will bring up a menu. Go down to Swap Theme and choose LSTS, that's a theme browser of sorts. LSDistro should come with a few already installed. Or you can download more (make sure they're labelled LSDistro compatible) from the website and put them in your \lsdistro\themes directory.

It's taking me some getting used to so that I like Litestep. Still playing with it. I couldn't find a theme that did EXACTLY what I wanted, so I've started to learn some stuff on my own, and have modified a theme so that I like it better.
Posted By: Unlimited_Boost Re: Screen shot time!!! - 11/17/01 07:03 PM
Holy SH!T, what have you done to my computer? Talk about a learning curve. Ok, but how do i get those sweet backgrounds, like ones from the first 2 pages? Pardon my stupidness, as i said before, big learning curve.
Posted By: perry Re: Screen shot time!!! - 11/18/01 01:05 AM
Hahah! You're not getting just sweet backgrounds with Litestep, you're getting an entirely new interface!

Go look around all the various themes on the litestep.net and download a few that look cool, then switch around using LSTS.

If you wanna switch back to Explorer, in the LSDistro directory is a program that will change it back for ya. Just run that and reboot.
