Xi Mishikani	Posted - 2007.07.11 02:27:00 - [1] What's the problem guys (gals)? So many people play or have played EVE, so much comraderie, and yet I could not find one single EVE-Online based desktop theme! Sure, there are wallpapers available on the site but, sorry CCP, they aren't that great not to mention a little old. So, after spending hours on Google last night, I found a couple of great backgrounds with a Caldari theme to them, and so was born my Caldari desktop theme. I had to switch WinXP back to the 'Classic' theme to do it, but I hope this sparks a trend of a few more (and better) EVE-Online Desktop Themes. I'd be more than happy to share mine with those that ask politely. :) Screenshot (click for larger view)
Nate D New Atlantis Tek Corporation	Posted - 2007.07.11 03:28:00 - [2] Looks pretty good... Now where's the Amarr, Gal, Minni? -Nate
Jaikar Isillia The Vinlanders Dark Matter Coalition	Posted - 2007.07.11 03:41:00 - [3] Looks nice I would be glad to have it part of my theme collection if you would be so kind :)
Xi Mishikani	Posted - 2007.07.11 03:50:00 - [4] Edited by: Xi Mishikani on 11/07/2007 03:51:39 Uploaded the Caldari.Zip which contains: Caldari.Theme Caldari Colour Scheme.txt The text-file is for if by some chance the .Theme file doesn't do anything. Simply open up your Advanced Display Properties in windows, and change each colour manually. I forgot to include the background in the ZIP-file so I just uploaded it separately which seems to have blossomed into a good idea because of the different aspect-ratios there are. ENJOY! As for Amarr, Gallente and Minmatar. I haven't decided if I'll do their's or not. I suppose I'd have to find backgrounds of equal quality for each. There IS one I want for the Amarr, but I can't find it other than as a desktop screenshot of the person that does. Amarr desktop screenshot
Striker IV Gallente Grave Diggers Sparta Alliance	Posted - 2007.07.11 17:22:00 - [5] crud, i had that pic somewhere ill link it if i find it Team work is essential... It gives the other team something ELSE to shoot at!
000Hunter000 Gallente Magners Marauders	Posted - 2007.07.11 17:31:00 - [6] Nice, now if only someone would make an icon pack based on EVE as well Also like the background but i think i'll try to personalize it a bit more by making a screeny of one of my own caldari ships. CCP, let us pay the online shop with Direct Debit!!! Magners is now recruiting, evemail me or Dagazbo ingame.
Kharadran Sullath Caldari IntoXication Inc	Posted - 2007.07.11 17:32:00 - [7] Wow, good stuff. It might be a keeper. ------ --Don't get saucy with me Bernaise!--
Xi Mishikani	Posted - 2007.07.11 18:51:00 - [8] Originally by: Kharadran Sullath It all looks great, but the morons at Microsoft managed to link MSN Live Messenger to the text box background settings, effectively stopping me from using it as I can't seem to just change the background in that program >.> ya, that's usually the problem with making your own desktop theme. Somethings just don't look right. For instance, Notepad's status bar isn't linked AT ALL to the colour changes you can make in the display settings which is why you don't see the status bar on Notepad in my screenshot. Other than that, I'm sticking with it.
Kharadran Sullath Caldari IntoXication Inc	Posted - 2007.07.11 18:51:00 - [9] bump Why is it that I can't download any of the backgrounds from www.hidebehind.com? ------ --Don't get saucy with me Bernaise!--
Sertan Deras Merch Industrial We Are Nice Guys	Posted - 2007.07.11 18:54:00 - [10] Nice desktop background...but you know you are playing too much EVE when you are trying to adjust Windows to look like the in-game UI. Just sayin'...

Xi Mishikani	Posted - 2007.07.12 02:01:00 - [15] ok, I just changed a couple of the colours to make it a little more friendly with programs like MSN Messenger and other areas where it created problems. Originally by: The Ratfink Just a quick question you got the picture from the intro movie played at the beginning of the client login thingie right? I got from somewhere online, but just from the dimensions of the picture, I doubt it was ever snapped directly from the intro.
