Touhou-ing Up A Computer
« on: August 25, 2010, 02:04:57 AM »
As mentioned somewhere in the 'you know you're addicted when...' thread, I've been trying to come up with a Touhou theme for my silly lil' PC 'ere. (XP, else I'd just download a theme and not screw around and potentially waste y'all's time, but!)

So far, I've got a crapton of wallpapers, a nifty Okuu boot-up screen, and a handful of Firefox personae.

Oh! And that sweet Bad Apple!! screensaver.

Soo... anything you guys could suggest? (Thanks much in advance, by the by.)

I never could get that to work properly. I'm still disappointed about it. :<

Blatant self-advertisement FTW.

Oh right! I grabbed the Meiling one; amazing job, by the way.

And sadly, Ryuu, I'm only Touhou-ing up the software because I don't trust myself mucking around with this silly bastard.

I will be on the lookout for that Oni Raid screensaver, though.

I may have this on a very old laptop of mine. I don't have the time to try and search for it right now, but if it is indeed on the computer, expect an upload.

I... may be able to find them, if he's talking about the ones I think he's talking about.

Edit: Found some.

Replace the startup/loading screen with something like this:

http://danbooru.donmai.us/post/show/327987/braid-fake_screenshot-kaenbyou_rin-kamishirasawa_k

I've actually managed to find a pretty spiffy loading screen.

This one, to be precise.

Thanks for the help, by the way, all. Loving that Alice Scroll rainmeter skin.

Edit: Installed that Mystia cursor and holy crap is it adorable/does it take some time to get used to.

Just got around to seeing the Oni Raid screensaver; not as classy as Bad Apple!!, but I'll be damned if it's not awesome and adorable.

And it counts the number of Suika that've ran by~

That is a nice loading screen. Is it supposed to change from yellow to orange or is it a camera/lighting thing?

EDIT:

I finally got around to looking at the thing today; it's yellow.

Also, this is gonna sound silly, but does anyone recall those lil' desktop mascot/buddy things? Lil' characters that'd just stand around and sit on your windows and whatnot?

Because I'd kill to find a Touhou one.

I think I know what you mean.

One of the members here gave me some small Touhou characters that fly around on the screen. The ones I got were Cirno, Patchouli, Flandre, Remilia, and Alice.

Here are all of them. http://www.mediafire.com/?e59zyrwtsb1svu1
