Th bar at the bottom is where the start bar is, I filled it it with the worst gradient ever just because I could p.gif.

I haven't made a Mac or Linux version yet (without the gradient), because i'm not exactly sure the size of their task bars, and the text being the centre of the viewable screen (I think) is very important for something like this.

Eiiither way, what do you all think?

It looks good; it has that simple design thing people like so much.

But I don't like the saying. It seems to be emphasizing the idea that people are stupid today. There have always been stupid people This generation is not particularly so, in my opinion.

Anyways! I like it. Especially how the two main words (Think and stupid) are in bold.

FABULOUSSSSS!!

Ah, I didn't see it like that... Different way of looking at it. When I wrote it I was intending it as simply addressing the person using the computer. Say... They needed to do some schoolwork, and they were just about to open WoW or something, they'd have "Think. Don't be stupid." to remind them not to do it p.gif. That was the plan anyway.

I like it quite much. I'm thinking of using it.

And if you're interested, the mac has no taskbar but the dock and nearly every linux version has it's own taskbar size/ammount.
The situation is hopeless, but not serious.

I was thinking of the menu at the top actually, but I guess that's not so much a taskbar as a context sensitive menu.

And yeah, I'm aware that Linux has loads of distro's, I was thinking of the more common ones (by that I mostly mean Ubuntu).

EDIT: Thanks for the compliment, it'd be awesome knowing someone's using it ^_^.

Here you see how it looks on a Mac and Fedora. I switched the mac back to my tiger but it looks really good on the Fedora laptop so I've left it as wallpaper:





As they have different screen formats the line gets cut. So I don't know how it would look like with it.
