HELP! I have no artistic talent!
« on: March 28, 2003, 06:14:01 pm »
That about says it all really.  Anyway I have a standalone jukebox and I'd like to replace the windows startup/shutdown screens and desktop with a custom picture for the jukebox.  Something modern, shades of blue... with "Doty's Bar" worked in somehow.  Anyone with talent willing to donate a little pc time for me?
They say patience is a virtue, and ignorance is bliss.  So I guess you can have a pretty good life if you're stupid and don't mind waiting around.

Nope.

Nope to talent, and nope to time donation :)

Pixelhugger, I think the windows startup and shutdown screens are 320x400 .bmp.  I'm just looking for something a little more bar/juke oriented on startup than just the windows screens.

thanks.
