It took me 2 months to do this but i redid my desktop tool bar thingy ....i downloaded some program that lets you change the "skin" so i uploaded some pics , did some photochoppin and put them inthe program and modified the pics till they worked how i wanted

The Start button is replaced with the Cadillac Script , when you move over the "start button" it turns into the Logo for the remote Start on a 2005 STS ....the buttons across the bottom for the windows were inspired by the dash on a 89 Fleetwood Brogham , where the warning light shows thru the woodgrain ....

I call it Cadillac XP:

pretty cool , esp for someone like me who has to tech themselves how to do it .....but i saw my little brother had made his look diffrent ....so i wanted ot make mine diffrent too

took forever man ....hardest part was getting rid of the windows logo ....it was all trial and error , since i dont know code or whatever runs this stuff id just click and change something and make a note of what happend .

Cool. I thought maybe you downloaded one of those pesky toolbars that you can't get rid of even from "Control Panal."

 

[Stoneage_Caddy]

no but i do get a pop up type thing as i boot my computer ....

you should have seen the analog clock i had on there ....but it messed up my computer so i got rid of it

Wow man!
Stoney, the amount of energy you have to pursue all these projects has me ashamed of myself.
Thats great dude.

I just took on a new project last night ....

I found a 1973 Corvette Model on e bay , so i got it and its on its way down here ....the kit dates back to 73 , and the body was painted ....

gonna be alot of work to get all the paint off and then build an exact replica of dads 73 , and have it done and perfect by christmas

the body was painted ....
gonna be alot of work to get all the paint off

Helpful tip:

Paint it with DOT3 brake fluid. Paint comes off & plastic is unharmed, just wash it in soap & water before trying to reapply paint! :bouncy:

 

[Stoneage_Caddy]

got pleanty of DOT3 ....good idea ...i was gonna use easy off on it

I've had to repaint plastic models, and varsol seems to work good, but then, the paint wasn't on for more than a year when I re-did it.

Paint thinner should work too?

[Stoneage_Caddy]
