PrtScr button above the arrow keys, next to F12. Puts the image in the clipboard. Push that with ALT to screen the window in focus only.

Use the Prt Scr (Print Screen) key on your keyboard, then open up MS Paint (or any graphics editor) and go to Paste. Then save it as .png (larger image but the best quality). Then you can upload it with your post.

Nothing too special, but figured I might as well throw mine in here too.

This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down.
If the problem persists, please contact the program vendor.

Ooo...the latter would be sweet but tricky. Maybe just an image of that orange text on exit.

The crashes were usually fine, and Dr. Watson was always what caused the OS to hang, or bluescreen. >.<

How do you change the default icons to this?

http://brsev.deviantart.com/art/Token-128429570

I am trying to figure out how to change all icons to this set, instead of one icon at a time, is there a way to do that?

I love seeing all these desktops. Makes me want to redo mine... again. I think it changes as much as my UI in game I'm partial to black and white - so I'm loving the ones I see on here like that ... ie Xarl

So here's mine...

They would have to be packaged as an icon set, which they aren't.

You could probably do this yourself (with the icon authors permission), but you would need to get software like IconPackager.

Most people don't bother doing this with Tokens because there's not enough icons to make complete set. With Tokens you're normally only changing icons that show on the desktop.

I'm glad I downloaded, and kept a copy of Bumptop archived. I've been meaning to give it a try the past year, and just now got around to it.
