Belive it or not, this is a wallpaper... only 1kB

Yep, that little tiny line. Don't believe me? Scale it. (It's even a little difficult to right click and save image..)

All right all you gimpifiers!

Check this out..this thread talks about installing mplayer and using the skins to trick out your desktop further.

Well, you can then take it to the next step.

Have a Puppy wallpaper? Why not make a skin theme for your media player to go with it?

Go to the folder where you put the skins /usr/local/share/mplayer/skins/ and find the one you like/want to modify. Make a new directory, copy all the stuff from that folder into it, then begin modifying a la gimp.

You will have then taken the first steps towards creating your own skins for media players (I'm sure this process can be followed for vlc, just haven't checked on it).

Here's the very first mod that I've done, coming up with something called forest. You saw it here first... Cool

Nice idea, but I don't think it would look nice when stretched. Smile

Hello; there are loads of wonderful wallpapers here. I find that the free ones are of a quality that is perfectly acceptable so there's no need to subscribe - though you might like to and thereby support the artist.
