I tried that. I think it may have something to do over whether you're an admin or not. Are you an admin user?

Are you an admin user?Yes. I'll check my non-admin account...

Edit: Quite right. When logged in as a standard user I don't get the free space info on the boot drive... I get it for the externals, though... :)

Must be a permissions thing...

Thought so. I'm not an admin, so I can't get that, I guess. I wonder why though. If I click on my HD, I can find out how much is left anyway. Strange...

I think if you mess around with ownership and permissions, you can get it to work though. This is because I can see how much space is left on different volumes, and removable drives.

Yeah Externals, its a permission thingy alright. You have full rights to it. If you take away the r right to the root of the HDD you probably can't see the free space... hmm... let me try that, brb.

It's a screenshot of Apples Fifth Avenue Cube, cut down by me, with an awesome gray backdrop. Plus, I keep the Windows taskbar on hide and don't show any desktop icons, so it looks like I just copied the file. Haha, that's funny. I should use that.

Hey, Mike Teezle! I love the desktop icons, especially the camera one! How did you do that?

For the design and photography icons, I used CHUMS (http://interfacelift.com/icons-mac/index.php?sort=downloads&id=&page=2) icon set.

The Powermac came from a different set. It's been so long I can't remember the name. There's a similar icon in the CHUMS set, but I don't think it's as good.

If you want to know how to change your icons, interfacelift has a nice tutorial (http://interfacelift.com/icons-mac/faq.php#1) up.

That's Avril for sure. She's looking a little quasi-evil in that picture though, that shot reminds me of Parker Posey from Blade Trinity.

How do you change the look of iTunes like that? Link? Thnx. :)
Thats nice..Did you use shapeshifter?? if so, which skin is that?
Yes, it's Shapeshifter, a theme called Shinobi (http://interfacelift.com/themes-mac/details.php?id=22), along with a few tweaks in Transparent Dock to tone the lightness down a bit. The iTunes skin comes along with the theme and is applied automatically. BTW, the hard drive icons are a separate package called Minium (http://www.rad-e8.com/downloads/icn/minium/). :)

Shapeshifter isnt working for me. I guess its not universal. I get this error message "You cannot open ShapeShifter preferences pane on this computer. Contact the developer of this software for a newer version."

One thing you could do instead of booting into PS to resize is take the screenshot, open in preview, resize the window to be a bit bigger thank the picture, than Apple+Shift+4 and take a picture of the picture.

It should make a file size small enough for Imageshack.

You can also save as in preview.... that might work.

Nahh. Just capture the screenshot to the clipboard (apple-shift-ctrl-3 for full screen), then open preview, hit apple-n to paste from the clipboard, and then file-save as, and choose jpeg, and the quality you want. Alternatively download Tinkertool, to change the default (apple-shift-3) screenshot from png to jpeg, and its all done for you. :)

I think it might be a widget he 'stuck' to the desktop (or however apple titles placing a widget) as I don't see an icon in his dock for a CPU monitor.

It is sweet looking. Makes me even more envious. :p

Actually, there's a menubar icon for it, but I echo the others in wanting to know what it is.

It's included with the CHUD tools on the XCode install. If you have an Intel mac it is on your install disk. Just install XCode and select CHUD tools from the menu and it will place a preference pane for the processor controls, along with that nice graph.

So have i gone blind? I don't see it in the dock. To bad there isn't a version for us PPCers.

--edit: whoops, guess I have gone blind. N/m question answered.

IIRC I got it from interfacelift but I don't remember the pack name.
Send me a PM with your email and I will send you the icon.
