May Desktops

[Agathon]

Cool, but how do get them down under 100 kb...???

I have them scale down to 800x600.

Automator does not yet have an action to allow you to set a file size parameter, but I am sure this will come.

I have Automator take and scale my screenshots now.

Man, I need tiger....like yesterday
You guys and all your fancy functions.

I'm really impressed with Tiger since my update CD arrived on Monday. Everything works as advertised.

Spotlight is absolutely perfect: fast and picks up all the changes I have made immediately. I showed it to a Windows user the other day and he was amazed. Then I showed him a search using classical Greek text (using OS X's unicode support) and he was absolutely blown away that it picked up every instance of that Greek term in all my documents and emails.

I thought that Dashboard would be fairly useless until I caught myself going to "Applications" to open the calculator for something. I also used Stickies a lot, but now use the Dashboard version.

Automator is brilliant and will only get better as more actions are released for it. Taking and converting screenshots used to be a laborious process for me, but now Automator does it all with one click.

I hate to sound like a total fanboi, but I cannot recommend Tiger enough.

Check this out (yes I rotate Desktops frequently).

I used an automator action to add "Aqua Desktop Picture" to a folder full of Aqua Style Desktop Pictures with one click. Automator opens up a dialogue and you can enter whatever Spotlight comments you wish to add. I am doing this to all my pics.

Needed something soft and soothing to keep my mind relaxed while I go through the nightmare that is moving.
