Once you click on the appropriate
download icon for the background, a new window should open where the
background will load. If you wish to just download the image as a .jpg
file onto your computer, then right click and select "Save Picture
as..." If you would like to make the image your current background,
right click on it and select "Set as Wallpaper"
How do I download
the games? [ ] [ ]
Simply click on the name of the game and
the file should begin to download. If you are using some sort of download
manager (such as Download
Mage) and it does not download the file, check its settings and
integration properties.
What do the system
requirements mean? [ ] [ ]
The display size (ex. 640x480) is the resolution
that your monitor is running at. It is recommended that you are using this
resolution at the minimum. Larger display sizes are even better for the
most part.
The color depth (ex. 256 color) shows the amount of
colors that your display can show at a time. You do not have to be running
in the same color mode shown, but it give optimal performance, and you
won't see any improvements graphically.
The input devices (ex. Mouse or Keyboard) tells what
devices are used to control the game.
The previews for
the backgrounds don't pop-up. Why? [ ] [ ]
You browser may not support the scripting
used on the page. Make sure that you are using the latest browser just in
case or that JavaScript is enabled.
How do I use the
themes? [ ] [ ]
First, you will need some software
that can apply themes. If you have Microsoft Plus! or Windows 98 Second
Edition, you should be able to install or use this feature. You should
unzip the files into the \Themes\ directory of Microsoft Plus! so that all
of the files are referenced correctly. Even if you don't have theme
software, you can still use the files (such as the background or sounds)
in the package and set them up manually.
I don't see an
answer to a my question here. How can I contact you? [ ] [ ]
Check out all the ways you can contact me
here in the about section. You can also
ask questions on the Forum, although you may have
to wait longer for a response from me, but other visitors may be able to
help you.
Why do the colors
look bad? [ ] [ ]
This page is designed to work on a
computer that is running on high or true color, so machines running on
lower settings (i.e. 256 or 16 color) will have trouble displaying it.
This is mostly because many computers today have no problem running at
these higher settings. If you want to learn more about changing your
display settings, look for more information in the PC
Guides section.
Some of the page
appears to be cut off. Why? [ ] [ ]
To view this page as I intended, it is
helpful have your computer running in a resolution of 800x600 or above.
This is simply because of the way that my computer is set-up and the
layout of the page. If you want to learn more about changing your display
settings, look for more information in the PC
Guides section.
How can I get a
page designed by you? [ ] [ ]
Email
me and let me know what type of page you are wanting to create.
Depending on whether I feel that it is a project that would be something
that I would want to do or that I have the time to do, I will let you know
what I think about it. If you already have an existing site, I can use the
existing content to create another page, or you could simply request that
I come up with some buttons are graphics for your site (assuming you like
the stuff on this site). There's no cost associated with working on a web
page for you, however the project is subject to my approval, based on
content, concept, or anything else.
What does RTS stand
for? [ ] [ ]
Real-Time Strategy. A type of game play
pioneered by Westwood's Command and Conquer series, and shaped by other
games and companies such as Blizzard Entertainment with Warcraft and
Starcraft, or Sierra and Relic with Homeworld. RTS game play usually
consists of ordering commands to units through a mouse clicks and a list
of other commands that let you build units, bases, and other buildings to
create other things. A technology tree allows you to develop new and
improved units or structures. The real-time element of RTS makes game
play fast and requires on-the-fly planning and strategy.
What does RPG stand
for? [ ] [ ]
A RPG is a Role Playing Game. Strong
storytelling and special character attributes are hallmarks of RPG game
play. Players can choose and define their character attributes by gaining
'experience points' from defeating enemies, and can buy new equipment to
improve attributes.
What does FPS stand
for? [ ] [ ]
First Person Shooter. Played form the
perspective of a character in the story (or lack thereof), you pick up
other weapons and ammo to defend yourself against foes, testing your
reflexes and aim. More advanced games of this genre also include some
puzzle elements that can help balance the pace of a game. The graphics are
usually very detailed and realistic to set an entire scene to navigate
through. FPS also introduced death match game play, allowing friends and
strangers alike to digitally slaughter each other. Some notable examples
include Wolfenstein 3D (the first popular FPS), Doom, Quake, Half-Life,
and Unreal Tournament.
What is WinZip? [ ]
[ ]
WinZip is a Windows application that
allows you to 'un-zip', or open, files that are compressed archives. They
usually have the file extension on .zip or .cab, although others do exist
as well. WinZip is free, and will allow you to open so of the downloadable
files contained on this page. Also, newer versions of WinZip let you
automatically install Windows Themes. You can download WinZip from its
homepage at www.winzip.com.
