Vista on PSP?

Now that I'm free of being trapped in a game of assassins and from drawing aromatic rings for a little while... I installed Windows Vista on my PSP. Ha.













Apparently the "goal of this project is to be able to fool anyone that you have Windows Vista on your PSP" (pspWvista). Yes, there is a pspWxp too, for those Vista skeptics. I don't know who would actually be tricked into thinking so, but I guess there are stories like this. I'm not going to lie - it was kind of cool to play around for a few minutes, figuring out what stuff did not work. I do appreciate the various fun tools I can mess with without actually hacking the system with custom firmware. Nothing against it, just uneasy about it just yet.


To my interest, there's a program called "PSPaint," so that was exciting for a second. The sad part is that there is no save option and the only buttons that work are the pencil, eraser, and the color palette. Oh, by the way, the color palette is at the bottom (see this piece for its significance).

ellipses

I use ellipses all the time - the "..." kind. Perhaps it contains some anime-ish sense of humor in it, but I think in general its useful. It can mean anything from "I don't know what to say" to "wtf is wrong with you," but that is up to the interpretation of the recipient. Here my second simple wallpaper based on a bunch of ellipses and other ellipses. This is actually my second most popular so far on deviantART (download 1280x800):











As a matter of fact, this is an inverted version of what it originally looked like. I don't know why but I had a white and red thing going on, though it went against my dark=easier for eyes philosophy. I'll post the original exclusively on here for download, or ridicule (click on image to download). In any case, the ctrl-I function in MS Paint is great: I've even used it in my research to adjust figures. I don't think I would've thought to use that blue-green color in the final version if it wasn't for the random ctrl-I trial.

just black and blue

Good morning (?). Kicking this off with the first wallpaper I've ever made.















How did this start? Well, 1) I couldn't find a good wallpaper 2) I was procrastinating. I chose simple and dark colors so to prevent blinding (the pre-installed wallpapers are insanely bright and apparently my screen has unusually high contrast), and basically I just started adding elements so that it would look like a "real" wallpaper. The "VAIO" is there because this one was going to be for my personal use and I own a Sony Vaio. If you've ever seen Power Locks you may notice that I overuse MS Paint. In fact, part of this was done in Paint :P

If you'd like, you can download it here at deviantART (1280x800). In terms of wallpaper posts, any suggestions and requests are always welcome! thanks.
