This is most likely for Windows users only. I don't think Macs have an active desktop feature, but I'm not sure:

Instructions:

A. Right click on your desktop anywhere but not on an icon.
B. Go to Active Desktop->Customize My Desktop.
C. Find the "Web" tab at the top. Click it.
D. Check the box next to "Show Web Content on my Active Desktop".
E. Click "New".
F. Type https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/latest.php
G. Click "OK" and then "OK" again at any alerts that open.
H. Make sure the box next to the "Latest Topics" page is checked.
I. Click "Apply".
J. Click "OK".
K. Click and drag the top of the little window to change its position.
L. Click and drag the bottom, left, or right borders to resize the window.

Anybody with XP wanna tell me how to either A) turn on active desktop (I ave no option) or B) do it another way....

Hooby

 

nevermind...

 

i hate cluttered desktops... i haven't tried this yet... but before i go and do it can i ask... "does it auto refresh?"

 

well u have to change the settings for the time for it to synchronize... and then it updates... or refresh... i made mine refresh like every min

 

you can't make that change with XP, i looked into it. you can only schedule once a day.

 

i have xp... and thats where ur wrong

 

When I did it, it auto aligned all my icons as shown above (they used to be scattered about in categories)... is that what you mean?

no, like when people have an icon for everything on there computer. like shorcuts to webpages, shortcuts to folders, shortcuts to shortcuts. there's some you need, like if you play a game often (unreal tourney) or if you use a prgram often (photoshop).

yellow_lancer, ill try and not say anything smart in response, but if you know im wrong and you're right, why don't you show me how to do it, instead of just posting and trying to be cool.
