BAD ATTITUDE'S



Holmes Desktop Theme


NOTICE: This theme is entirely based on the funkiest sh*t of a debut album by David Holmes - "Let's Get Killed." Having already received world-wide praise and recognition from Mixmag and JockeySlut, Holmes brings the funk back to the dancefloor with imagination and reality. Live cuts from New York with the word on and from the street mixed and sampled with jazz, blues and funk to bring a diverse album of creative genious to the multitude. This theme brings this music to the desktop and for those wanting more bites of reality check out your local CD store for the latest and greatest from David Holmes. Parental Guidance is recommended as explicit lyrics are presented. You have been warned and NOW let's get it on!!!!! Enjoy the theme and enjoy the music !!

IMPORTANT!


This Theme requires Microsoft's NetShow to be installed. What is NetShow? It is a streaming audio/video process very similar to RealAudio/Video (which is more well-known). NetShow comes into play with the sound clips that we are using. It uses a codec (compression format) named 'ACM Waveform' with the option of 'MPEG Layer-3'. Many other programs use the 'ACM Waveform' but Netshow is one of the few to implement the 'MPEG Layer-3' option. Using this Waveform together with the codec compresses the sound files without losing much quality as other compression codecs cause. This, in turn, enables us to provide you with top quality Themes in a small package.

Click here to find out whether or not you already have NetShow on your system: Sound. If YES....then

1)Unzip all the files to a 'TEMP' directory.
2)Move all the 'Holmes xxx.xxx' files to your Theme directory.
3)Go into the 'Control Panel', 'Desktop Themes' and select the Theme appropreiate for your screen resolution.
4)Delete all the files in the 'TEMP' directory you created as well as the unneeded 'xxx.jpg' and 'xxx.theme' files.
5)Enjoy!

If NO....then click here NetShow to download your copy FREE! After downloading follow the instructions above.

Bad Attitude would like to thank all of you for supporting us by downloading our Themes. Recently we have moved to a server of our own...hence the slower speeds and undelivered mail...still gotta get those bugs worked out. We are currently using NT 4.0 Workstation with Xitami. We would like to use NT Server 4.0 but money is scarce these days. If you know where we can get a used copy of NT Server 4.0 cheaply...well, we'd kill for it! In addition, on average there are 1,500 Themes being downloaded DAILY! To ensure speedy downloading without the cut in quality we have implemented the sound codec mentioned above. This will not only make things faster but will also SAVE YOU MONEY! Mention (or send this file) this codec to your favorite Theme author and ask them to start using it. The only reason we are pushing this is that it SAVES TIME & MOENY FOR EVERYONE!....something each and every one of us wishes we had more of. Well, here's one way to gain a little back without sacrificing anything! Spread the word and get those file sizes smaller.

Enjoy!
