Show Us Your Backgrounds

[Radio]

We have show your desktop threads in the off topic section but I want to see what backgrounds you use for Yafl and Wind-Ups.

Here's my Wind-ups bg which leaves plenty of space for all of those icons:

Which I orginally got from Pixel Graphics

I just did a straight resize in Paint Shop but I might play with it a bit so the robot appears bigger.

 

[sam fisher]

actually there was and there was also a website.

 

[Drewus]

which version of Wind-Ups is better? 1.0 or 2.0?

 

[onionfrog]

It depends, 1.0 is a windowsy type of sitiuation, where as 2.0 is completely different...
I prefer 1.0...
(I'll post my desktop sometime later...)

 

[Rattboi]

Man,

I don't understand why people like the window-style display. It just seems like one of the least effective ways to make a launcher. I appreciate some of the tools that comes with Windups, but the icons to launch binaries is just silly. Why use a mouse pointer when you can use something like Pacrom where it takes like 2 seconds to get to your program no matter what?

 

[Shirohagen]

Because it looks nicer.

Pacrom is shitty, Slubman's fw is far better and convenient.

Too true.
Also Rattboi, it's a novelty thing I think. I never liked it because the damn settings would never save.

definitly

 

[carlgeorge]

I disagree, I think that Pacrom is one of easiest and efficient firmwares available. I tried many on my FLU, but always returned to Pacrom. I have never flashed my BLU because the eurofirmware is nice enough.

Heres some pretty good backgrounds already in 320 x 240 @ Shibuya

​

I'm aware of the backgrounds available to download on the net and have many of them. This is purely a "lets be nosy and see what you are currently using as a background" thread.

 

[TelcoLou]

I have about 2 dozen of these, but here's my 3 favorites:

Windups is shit! The best and fastest launcher is Yafl 0.1 !

​

That's nice. Show us some of your 'superior' Yafl backgrounds then, and stop trying to turn this peaceful thread into yet another pointless debate on which launcher is best.

​

Some games don't run via Windups, like most Fenix games. I have Mr Spiv's MF2, and just use Pacrom to launch these files, so it's all good.

[onionfrog]

I currenty use windups, but I may switch to gposx or yafl, because windups cant boot some fenix games...
