| arr, your desktop pics are just fine. Mine was done using a new product called The Ultima Visual Solution for OS/2. Delays have set the release back a bit, but the product, and the web site will be ready on March 27th at WarpFX.com. Again, the web sit won't be up untill the 27th. If you want to know more, here a pic from the user guide. Best regards, |

| Ow... I thought you just draw a blue thing on your desktop background and did move the icons to the correct place. And a special background image for the folders... The rest can be done with eCS themes and Istyler?? It seeems I was wrong and there is more to it?.. |

| For clarification, The desktop image was from my own desktop, and yes the 'blue thing' was drawn (rendered), but it is part of the backround. And yes the icons were moved to the correct place. The intent was to show the typeof backrounds in the Ultima package, there are over a hundred of them, along with icons, animations, audio, and more. Yes, the same type of window theme can be achieved using styler/2 varients. The Ultima theme was designed for use with CandyBarZ. However, the images rendered for the titlebars and the various pushbuttons are far more graphically advanced than those used in previous themes designed for OS/2. Extensive use of three dimensional imaging, shadows, and repositional techniques replaces the normally flat, 2D work designed thus far. Here's a collage of images showing more from Ultima.

| Hi Tim, just trying to help, but I noticed in the guide.gif - in the left column, second paragraph; is that word suppose to be exciting? It's spelled as exiting. If that's already been noticed and corrected, then just ignore this. kind regards, |

| Concerning the "rendered launchpad"; I think that would be great if someone would actually develop a launchpad that would be skinnable like that. Would be awesome but probably wishful thinking. Who knows. kind regards, |

| Has anyone been able to get to the new website yet? It's late in the day and the 27th but I still get a Page Not Found. Was there some kind of a unexpected delay in getting it up? kind regards, |

| It's hard to believe that there has been another delay, but there has. The WarpFX web site won't be up for another several days. Several pages of 'The Artisan' , the WarpFX newsletter, seem to be missing from the server. We are correcting the problem, but some of the HTML has to be redone. We apologize for the delay, and we appreciate your patience. We wil post HERE in a few days, letting everyone know that we're back in business. In the meantime, here's another backround. Enjoy! |
