Hey all.

I made a new Wallpaper for Vista

please give comments if you like the wallpaper.
(Umm yes, I had to rebuild the Logo :S)

(made it with Corel Draw 11)

Has a smooth look, but the windows signs look out-of-place.
Also, your name is f'in huge, just something I don't like.
Vista text is a bit bland, no idea what corel draw 11 is.
:)

It looks a little simple. I think I like the original Vista wallpaper better. But nothing owns my current one on my PS comp.

Still, it is okay. I think you could add more effects as well as some cool abstract designs or something like that.

Well you ruined it putting you name on it like that...

Having it in the corner in really small text you won't really notice is fine.

Plus the rest of it looks really... not like vista.

Funny how you put the Linux wallpaper in a thread called 'New Vista Wallpaper'. :p

There's not much to it. There's a penguin, the apple logo and the background. Looks quite simple. Nothing wrong with that, though, sometimes simple is better, imo.
The balls looks like the same ball that has been copy-pasted and resized. :p
The colors fits in quite well, though.

However, the penguin's forehead is blended in a way that doesn't quite fit.
The text is awful, and your nickname is much too long and clumsy to be put on a wallpaper (at least at that font size). You should try making a logo, like Pineapple has.
Maybe you could try adding some shadows to the objects, as well.

I also don't like the 'Think Linux' idea. :p

    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though

    I think we need to add something to the bottom of the front page that shows the Headline News forum that has a link to go to the News Forum Index so people can see there is more news. Do you guys see what I am saying, lets say you read all the articles on the front page and you get to the end and it just ends, no kind of link for MOAR!

    Finally finding about some of the bots that are flooding the users online - bytespider apparently is a huge offender here - ignores robots.txt and comes in from a ton of different IPs
  • Monovertex Monovertex:
    @The Helper I'm really not seeing the "Signature" link in the sidebar on that page. Here's a screenshot:
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I have reported it - I was wondering why nobody I have given sigs to over the last few years have used them
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Ghan has said he has fixed this. Monovertex please confirm this fix. This was only a problem with people that had signatures in the upper levels like not the special members but the respected members.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Here is a better place to manage this stuff https://www.thehelper.net/account/account-details which I think should be way more visible
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am hoping that online user count drop is finally that TikTok bot banned

    I added the filter last night.
