Took the main shot from one of the video files neps posted a while back, added in the bg from the KR08 NBC site, eliminated the NBC logo and stuff too. Have this at work and at home right now.
Re: Let's see your KR desktops!
great desktops everyone, mucho respect.
Question to all with wording in their desktops: are you guys using captures or a font or are you guys drawing the words to get them to look like that? For example, the "KR" big letters or those of you with "Knight Rider" on the bottom of the desktops - are those letters a font or drawn? I'm trying to create a desktop for my new HTPC system that I'm building (which will have a functional KITT vox display on it - think "Soul Survivor") and I could really use some help, tips, whatever you got.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Let's see your KR desktops!
There is a font that the new Knight Rider series uses,and it's called EARTH(it's catagorized as a Sci-Fi style font).I found my version on DAFONT.com(and these are legally downloadable fonts by the way.)http://www.dafont.com/earth.font Here's the direct link to the font used in the new KR series.manlai wrote:great desktops everyone, mucho respect.

Thanks! I'll start messing around with it now and hopefully my system (vox and all) will be operational by the weekend. That font should make for some nice lettering on the desktop i'm making.

Re: Let's see your KR desktops!
I've passed on a copy to neps to post on the site, hope they can do it soon. I looked at Photobucket and unfortunately it's too big to load up (both in dimensions and file size). If it's not up in a couple weeks or so I'll see if I can borrow web space somewhere to upload it.triran wrote:Can you give us a link so we can have a copy? goldbug?

Re: Let's see your KR desktops!
heh, I'm not very good at this. I still can't get my letters to look raised and shiny like the others' desktops. Any thoughts? However, I did discover a cool looking effect.

it's a great program. http://www.getpaint.net" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; like a free photoshop, granted not as many features but still really well loaded with bells and whistles... usually gives me what I need.

Re: Let's see your KR desktops!
goldburg I have been waiting, but site admins don't seem to be adding the wallpaper to their site.
Would you be willing to e-mail me the wallpaper?
Thanks!
