Nah, What I got was just an upgrade, so that won't work with XP. I'm going to give my upgrade to my sister (she has vista on her laptop, therefore she is in greater need )

Agreed. Also, I love you for referencing to that amazing game.

Wow i've been gone for awhile, nice Desktops everybody.

So prepare to be bombarded with pics...........

Hidden/Spoiler:

They should all be in order of when I had them. The second to last one is the one on my Desktop as I type this, and the last one is the one i had on the USMC Birth-Day (November 10). I hope you like 'em.

[Darth_Spiderpig]

I like the last one. USA USA USA.

BTW; how did you change the icons, especially for Battlefront 2?

[Clone Captain]

Well first, on page 7 of this topic, Devastator77 posted links to the icons, download those.
Second,
1.) Right-click the SWBF2 icon on thee desktop
2.) Click properties (now I have windows, as you can see, if you have Mac OS, I have no idea, never played around in a Mac)
3.) Click Change Icon…
4.) Click Browse…
5.) Find where you downloaded the icons to
6.) Click the one you want
7.) Click open
8.) Click Ok
9.) Click Apply
10.) Now you’re done!

If you want the icons that are above AEM 5.1 and ACM 2.4, you gotta have Empire at War (shall now be called EAW) and Empire at War: Forces of Corruption(shall now be called EAW: FOC), if not well…… I could upload them somewhere for you…. But if you do have those games follow these steps. The icon for Space Addon is the stock icon for EAW, but if you have the game, you should know that .

1.) Repeat steps 1-4.
2.) Go to you’re LucasArts folder.
3.) Then go in the Install folder (this goes for both EAW and EAW: FOC).
4.) The icons should be there but in PNG format so you’re gonna have to convert the format to bmp.
5.) I recommend NCH Software Pixillion, just Google that.
6.) Download the free version.
7.) Run the installer.
8.) From there it’s pretty easy to find out how to convert the icon, so I’ll leave that for you to find out .

The last two (Rise of the Mandos, FOC Addon 3.5) are mods for EAW and EAW: FOC, you do not need the games to get these icons, they are in the download, I shall now give you links! (except for FOC Addon 3.5, that’s the pic on the screen when you start the game, I pressed the Prt Scrn button to take the pic, then pasted in paint. So you need the game for that icon)

AEM 5.1
ACM 2.4
FOC Addon 3.5
Rise of the Mandos

Wow I talk a lot when giving instructions.

Had the same wallpaper ever since I got and became acquainted with my computer about 2 years ago. (I know it's a mess)
When I bought Portal & Garry's Mod, GMod barely ran on my computer and Portal didn't run at all, so when I got my new computer (sweet Christmas gift hopefully getting the indie dev package for the Epoc Headset this Christmas; my b-day is real close to the holiday so I tend to just ask for one big gift for the most part; I also want a TV for my room to play my Wii on because there's only 1 TV in the house right now, and I very rarely get a chance to use it to play Wii.) anyway, when I got the new, faster computer, the first thing I did was dl and play Portal, then I was shocked by its unbearable awesomeness and decided it needed wallpaper status. On my old computer, I had the defualt desktop for a couple years, then I got SimCity 3000 and enjoyed it, and I found a very nice image for use on the desktop in the directory. It was in no way related to the game, though; no icon or anything, just a nice isometric close up of a few buildings and made for great WP. I might have a pic of it on an ancient forum, lemme go check :p
Aww, ancient forum went bye-bye ;(

Red Orchestra
Fortress Forever
Zombie Master
Insurgency
The 2 Oddworld games

Dude, can you send me links to all those pics??

[Lord Bardar]

you know biohazard, all those games you listed are Steam games, and you can launch them through Xfire or Steam. so really, no need for desktop icons (gives you better loading speed and bandwith actually the less icons you have).

[biohazard]

Having those nice icons gives my desktop a pleasant feeling, IMO. I only have the games I play most often there, anyway.

[Dohnutt]

You guys should try out ObjectDock; google it.

[Darth_Spiderpig]

@Clone Captain:

Sweet, thank you very much.

I thought the icons come with the game.

For EAW: Sure I have this great game (with the expansion )

You're Welcome
