I think I used a poor choice of words. I usually rely on a wallpaper to inspire my styles, but I am impressed when a knockout style is presented over an effective bsetroot background. I also appreciate the effective use of a well-chosen wallpaper. And while I love pie, you really can't beat a good cheesecake. ;)

Hey, I like bsetroot styles more because they show attention to detail, and I don't have to go hunting for a wp that I'll get tired of in a few days.

I'm hesitant to chime in on this discussion because i think it comes down to personal preference. However, as someone who uses wallpapers to inspire styles fairly frequently, i will say that i tend to look at the whole style as art, and that can just as easily include a wallpaper as a bsetroot background. To each his/her own.

I have mixed feelings about the wpaper issue. It is true that a great wall will attract attention and probably get more clicks than a bsetroot; however, it's also true that the more sophisticated styles are usually over a bsetroot background. I personally am turned off by girlie walls, so I may miss an otherwise good style that is upstaged by a girlie wall. My prejudice assumes that the style will be "immature." I'd love to see more bsetroot backgrounds.

I agree 100% with zen. I'm much more likely to check out a bsetroot style then I am a busy wallpaper style. It takes more creativity to do a bsetroot style. I find them much more usable because more time was spent on color and design than on matching colors in a wall.

auto: i think maybe im arrogant but i kind of feel that a fellow style author is going to notice a graet bsetroot style a little quicker then the average user who might respond otherwise to say... a girly wall.. etc.

Hello chatters! I just found this wonderful software called xoblite and installed it. I am very surprised that it is still developed as every other place around here seems to be dead. If you're reading this, please help me figure out how to set the clock to 12hr, and how to run a @Script from the menu. The docs say it is possible, but do not elaborate.

welcome
