DesktopX

How come when I apply new themes, the parts are not where they were meant to be, like for example the rotating hands of the clock arnt in the circle of the clock where they are suppossed to be. Also for example in the Pepone Metal theme, the chains and stuff dont appear on top of the windows to look like they are hanging, instead they just appear here and there, in the middle of the screen not connected to anything. Whats wrong ?

The theme is probably resolution dependent, I'm guessing (help me out here, experts!). If you either jiggle your screen resolution or move the hands, it should work out ok.

Don't use DX, but bio is probably correct.

Yes, if the objects aren't correctly placed, they change their position at screen when you use a different screen size.
The best opction is to use a 'parent object' perfectly aligned to a 'extreme' for example Tep-Left, the create the children objects. BTW, this system don't works correctly.
You can use this option too:
Use a script only to put the object on the correct position (use allways relative positions if the position don't will be exact, or exact XY if it will be very exact)

SDPlayer has played mp3's AND WindowsMediaAudio files (*.wmf, *.wma) for me, and I wouldn't be surprised if it did more than that. It's a trusty program, that one.
