As per your request my Lord, please visit the following link in order to retrieve your royal wallpaper which was created by artist Ken Saunders:

MouseRunner's deviantART gallery

I use RocketDock and visit their add-ons section to build-up some decent skins (and icons).

Most of my icons come from the abovementioned site and I normally search for specific software program icons or windows icons in general and download various icon packs if I think all (rarely) or some of the icons in the pack are appealing.

Thanks very much for your positive feedback ... it's taken me ages and alot of downloading, viewing, sorting, deleting, keeping etc. but it's all worth it.

There's also some very nice balloon-style and text-style icons if that's more your flavour aswell.

Please let me know if I can assist any further.

Thanks again, Neil.

Will there be anything else?
Sorry Mr Smiley i didn't understand the first sentence you wrote "Hello (Your) LordAnubis3 (What happened to the last two LOL???)
"
My english could be a little better lol.
Regarding the sugestions i will try it and post back if i have any problem.
Thanks

Re: Post your Desktops!

My goodness Kavita and Jerin, I don't know what to say other than your remarks are very kind and I certainly appreciate you taking the time and effort to comment on my icons so favourably.

As I intimated in my earlier post to LordAnubis3 (yes we do have Royal Members), with the exception obviously of my Documents, Music and Pictures folders, I can pretty much say I found every other icon individually in separate/different icon packs or by searching for the specific software program itself.

DeviantART.com has some amazing resources and free downloads for icons and wallpaper's etc. as does RocketDock.

One really good point I should make which may seem pretty obvious, when you come across an icon/icon pack that you really like on either website, ensure that you view that particular artist's gallery as you'll be surprised and delighted what other works of theirs you'll want.

The funny thing is, and let's face it, icons, walls or anything artie is a personal thing, what I like you might think is terrible, but do you think I've found an Internet Explorer icon that I'm happy with ... nope, not yet, but then again that might be telling me something LOL!

Please let me know if you need any help whatsoever and I would be only too happy to oblige.

Thanks again Kavita and Jerin for your kind comments.

Regards, Neil

Hi LordAnubis3, no what I meant was you have a number 3 at the end of your Username, and I was just asking you about what happened to the 2 Lord's before you.

Its not just about the change that you made to screen wallpaper and the dock and the amazing icons there - it has been matched so wonderfully - the wallpaper and the icons go with each other so well - that's a perfect match - And that was something that inspired me the most - And also you are not less then a good Art collector !!!!!!

Re: Post your Desktops!

Jerin, maybe I should have been a graphic designer like my sister do you think ... I would have loved doing something like that.

I wish I could send you and Kavita and anyone else that was interested my portfolio of icons to save you the time and effort finding them yourselves, but it is a fun process though.
