Found them on Halo maps, downloaded a program called " Picture2Icon " Or " EasyPicture2Icon". And by the way, I used Alienwares Alien GUIse folder icons.

At a workstation at my digital media center on campus. Typically the dual monitor machines have the same resolution on both monitors, but this one is connected to a TV monitor which passes through a projector.
When I get around to it I'll post a copy of my personal computer's desktop. I've been cleaning it up so I can reinstall windows (stupid driver is going berserk for some reason now) with relative ease. Doesn't bother me. This is actually the longest I've gone without reinstalling the OS, so I'm surprised it's gone this far. Really is just a testament to Vista compared to XP.
But yeah, my digital media program has the full adobe suite, the autodesk 2k8 suite, a few other things, and on the few macs we have I'm pretty sure they've been maxxed out with software. Next semester we're adding things for audio and motion capture (think little balls attatched to a skintight suit that's recorded by four cameras and is used for easy animation, not the simple take a picture with a camera, move whatever you're shooting, and repeat).

The result of many hours of searching the interwebz and tweaking my settings. For some odd reason, the clock is now messed up (not in the pic), and the right-most end of the seconds are cut off. Also, yes, the Finder bar works.

CS2 is PowerPC. PowerPC apps run terrible on new Macs that have Intel chips. It emulates PowerPC code using a backend called Rosetta. CS3, on the otherhand, is BLAZING fast. 3 second startup on my MacBook. (after the first initial startup of course). It's Intel/Universal.
But if CS2 doesn't run on 10.5 on a PowerPC, then there isn't much that can be done! It's old! 10.5 seriously is nice breasts compared to 10.4. MUCH faster, and much more can be done.

CS2 ran fine under 10.4, so I don't think Rosetta or any of that is the issue. Considering CS2 isn't all that old (it came out in 2005 and we purchased it early 2007) I'm suprised that Adobe hasn't patched it yet. Then again, why should they care when they can force users to spend $300 - $1,000 on CS3 :rolleyes:.
They haven't updated any of their old software for 10.5. The only option if you want to use Photoshop under 10.5 is to buy CS3 or to use Sheepshaver (if it even works under 10.5) and then CS2. I thought Macs were supposed to "just work".
Thats my mini rant =P. No new desktop for me. If I do get a new one I'll post it in this post.

Actually it is Rosetta. Some compatibility layers changed in Leopard, and assuming how system-intensive emulating PowerPC is through Intel, CS2 broke. Technically, to patch CS2 to be Intel Native, would require a lot of rewiring on the background coding. That's why they couldn't upgrade CS2 when Intel Mac's first came out. It had to emulate. It came out a little too early (CS2).
On the thought of "just working," Rosetta does a pretty damn good job. It has to emulate an entire Architecture (PowerPC) on x86 (Intel). Occasionally some programs do not work, but the majority of PowerPC apps do. There is still trouble emulating an Emotion Engine (Ps2) on a PC. The fact that it can almost perfectly run a full-form computer architecture is quite an amazing feat.
And I might be wrong, but I'm pretty damn sure ImageReady was actually integrated into Photoshop CS3. It's not separate anymore.
EDIT: Bit of research shows that they merged them, Conscars. Does that continue to make it retarded? From my experience it runs a million bucks better.

You can't even open a .gif animation unless you know about typing *.* into the open window to see all files. It's like they didn't bother to put the filetype in the import frames as animation list. I hear web designers are disliking the merging too.
