SOHC4.net screensaver
« on: August 24, 2009, 07:19:13 PM »
Hi all, not sure about this but I have put together a screensaver of images found on this forum. If there is enough interest I will put together an installer for it and host it some place with good band with speed.
That said, this is a first pass. I wanted to use some one else's framework for it but if this takes off I will write my own code since this one is kinda slow and is rather old.

Anyway.. I am just taking pictures I find on the forums of Honda SOHC bikes and so not all of our bikes are there. At some point there will be since I am doing this more for me then anything.

All you need to do is click on the links below and save them to your C:\windows\system32 folder, or where ever your system32 folder is. It should work with Windows2000, XP, Vista and Windows7. Its my server at home and the uplink speed is not great so please be patent. As I work on this I will probably add captions.. and perhaps images that have to do with CB's also any suggestions are welcome, even ones that ask me to remove their bike from the screensaver.

Again its just the first pass so please be kind with the comments.. ;)

Thanks I will keep looking. I am finding some in the gallery also. For now I am just doing member bikes, the good, the bad and the ugly because they all have a place and all have some quality worth looking at. Its a slow progress however I will get it there.

If we (as forum members) want a wider range of bikes I sure could add them easy enough.

No, however I have dusted of my Powermac and I am seeing what I can do. I have found the frame work I am using can cause the machine to lock up if its left too long. I can't seem to find the memory leak so I am going to enlist some help from some coding friends. Also I would like to see a Linux one cause I prefer Linux over Windows.

So the short answer is no, I am working on it...  ;D
