lol. page3.com is always good but most of them shouldn't be posted here...;)

i must admit though, some of the wallpapers i have came off people on the lan and DC. although my kirsten dunst collection is my own... :D

i'll try and re-find one of the sites i found, it was really good :)

/edit: dammit, just remembered i'm barred from international sites (account negative). if you were coming to L3 u could leech my collection off me ;).

Tis OK.

BUT I'm pissed they've cut so much out.

Ctrl-V stopping after song.
Shift-V fading out song.
Alt-3 shortcut to ID3 v1 and v2 tag dialog
shortcuts for forward 10, 100 back 10, 100, etc etc etc....

It feels too lean for me. I'm hoping they release a version with all the keyboard shortcuts sometime, cos I actually used them! :(

( am I really all that weird that I was the only one that bothered using them? :eek: :confused: )

Oh and also, when I have my skin enabled on this final release ver of WA3, I can't get into the prefs.

...... nah this final release blows... after 5 mins and I'm already back to the mad preview version (reckon it's way better). man that final ver sucks arse.

Geek4Life
12-08-2002, 11:46 PM
I think that Winamp 2.80 is better at the moment. Though I'm persisting with v3 at the moment. But not finding it all that great.

One of the first things i did after installing v3 was go and download 2.80 again because I seemed to have deleted that file.

Are there any non-freeform skins for v3 yet.

swiftynz
13-08-2002, 12:30 AM
one thing i noticed that was gone from the mad beta was the f3 search function.
is it still missing?
cos if so its gonna take me a while to get used to v3.. that was one of the shortcuts i used most frequently :(.
i'm still using WA 2.80. no reason to update really, i much prefer it to the MAD beta.

/edit:
just got wa3 off binky. improvement over the mad beta...
but no F3 so WA2.8 it is for me :p

j-lo aint all that and a bag of potato chips.. plus since being with puffy - p.diddy dong kingkong whatever he calls himself these days... she's been a real gangstafied scumbucket... pulling east side all over the show.. what a loser.

on that note, doing similar moronic things is what ruined mariah carey's career (hip hop interludes and untalented morons whose musical ability is confined to "yo! yo!", and in my opinion is what's holding k'lee back from really proving her talents... she's going down the mariah path as well. Mr J-Rys better buck up his protege, or K'Lee is going down the path to nowheresville.

[male pig]Nice boobs on all three tho.[/male pig]

Anna Kournikova is better tho, you can see why she was voted the most sexiest this year ;)
Haven't been able to find anyway decent wallpapers of her tho :(
i wonder.. could it be that anna k isnt really all that? could that be the reason of a lack of decent wallpapers?
sexiest this year? how many 10 year olds voted in that? ;)
To me anna k is above average, and she needs to eat MORE CHICKEN. :rolleyes:

you guys can continue looking at your prepubescant fantasy girls.. i'm over the other side of the room with silver and rb, where we have taste and look at such fine examples of the female form as Kelly Brook (36D-26-36 DAYUM), Rhona Mitra - the original lara croft and sex-object of the ali-g movie, lisa snowdon, melanie sykes, rachel stevens.... and thats only the british selection.. wait till we go to the americas :D

If anna k and j-lo are your tastes.. perhaps you should move onto some hotties like beyonce knowles (or as ali-g calls her "the one from destinys child with the big thighs").. young enough to be a pubescent fantasy, old enough to take the notice of near-conniseurs like me and rb :D

here's some more material for ya: www.page3.com ;)

I'm offended, please don't refer to me as a young puebescent person, that sounds real queer, and I'm past people calling me that now :p

You have some good points there Whetu, I only like J. Lo and Anna Kournikova because they look quite nice .. not for thier personality or anything .. not that I would know about thier pesonality or anything .. :rolleyes:

That whole J.Lo and Poof Doody thing is lame, I don't know what she was thinking when she was with that idiot, Poo Diddy sux and always will, try hard gangsta rappers with guns is pathetic :rolleyes: . Her a$$ is nice and the rest too ;)

Anna K, well theres another story, shes a hot blonde with a nice pair ... of legs, she looks quite hot, I doubt FHM is read by 10 year old freeks, maybe computer g33ks, heh .. there was something like over 1 Million votes for the FHM Top 100 Sexiest ladies .. she earned that position because shes secksy and thats what the poll is for, sexy-ness.

Don't get me wrong here, Im a female "near-conniseur" too.
Kelly Brook is the the bomb, so is Beyonce Knowles (aka Big Thighs) and the rest .. Allysa Milano, Alyson Hannigan, Mellisa George and Jennifer Garner etc .. they all have sex appeal, good looks and the rest .. I was just referring to my "women of the moment" earlier (being J. Lo and Anna K), lol.

Like Anna K, Allysa Milano, Alyson Hannigan, Mellisa George and Jennifer Garner etc .. there are very few specimens like these around .. and well, theres sh!t all decent pics and wallpapers of them, that I've seen, which is somewhat depressing (not) :confused: , anyone willing to make some wps? ;)

Ah yes, i saw page3.com the other day, aint half bad ;)

Well, conservatively my desktop will be 3200x1200. Of course, if I can be bothered pluging in one of these PCI cards lying around, I could probably add another 1024 into the mix :D.

ATM the card I'm using's RAMDAC can't handle the jandle at 1600x1200@75Hz, so it's either 1280 or 60Hz :(.

why the **** cant the people with mutiple monitors just post one pic under the other ......... WhyTF do they have to be side by side...........

I don't know how much you've played with multi-monitors, but when you hit 'PrintScreen' with them, they automatically all come out in one big image with them side by side ( or however you have them set up in Windows ). Not to mention the fact that you just can't inspire stupifying awe with a whole lot of little 800x600 pics.

Man, my desktop just ain't very impressive ATM ( lol, anyone notice a pattern about what sort of pics I use? hehe :D ):
