Congratulations Grandpa!! :D

Congratulations! (Start passing out the virtual cigars.) When was she born?

Crimson...Wow!! That is beautiful...Thank you so much...my daughter will absolutely love that...WOW!!!

Brooke was born last Monday, Oct. 2nd at 12:30 A.M., 7lbs. 8 oz..

Crimson Blonde...I now have a new wallpaper...beautiful...thank you..:) :) :)
I wonder...is there any way to keep the sparkles moving with it being a wallpaper?

That is very inspiring...I hadn't thought about doing stuff like that....I'll have to see what I have to work with....COOL...

You are very welcome Steve :)

If you would like it full size I can make you a wallpaper to fit your whole screen otherwise its going to tile.... unless you set it for center. But I right clicked it and set it as background and the animation runs fine :)

So if you would like it bigger just let me know ..... I'm glad you like it ... she is such a cutie :D

Oh, okay....I had set it as wallpaper...I'll change it to background....I actually like it tiled....more of her to look at !!...Nah...I'm not proud!!!!

awww.... I bet..... So it worked then...... very kewl ;)

If your daughter has any pics she wants all sparkly let me know ..... be happy to do it for you guys :)

Crimson....I right clicked and set as background but no sparkles....any ideas??

hmmm... well not sure ... I tested it here and it worked fine.. it could be a simple setting somewhere... but I have no idea about that stuff :(

There must be a way to do it since it animates on my background - I tried to look at the xp help site but I couldn't find anything :(

Maybe someone here can answer that question.

Thank you Crimson....I checked the settings in the appearances & themes area...didn't see anything there...all of my graphics software is working properly...I think...hmmm...it is probably some little setting that I don't know about....perhaps someone else will have a suggestion.....

The tiled picture is very pretty as it is....getting the animation working will really be cool....

Some experimenting here....I can set the picture as a full sized picture and the animation works, but it's when I tile the picture that the animation doesn't work.
I had to 'save picture as'...then set as background from there to get animation to work....curious....

Hooray....success....animation is working.

I don't really know what I did....I went back to appearances & themes area...re-set to 'center'...and animation started working...then set to 'tile'...and animation kept working...!!

Crimson...my daughter is gonna love this....a thousand thanks you's.....

Yay!! :D

I fix things that way too .... just can't really explain how I fixed it :p

I'm glad it's working and you are very welcome :D

Wow, another new Grandpa, and beautiful baby. Congratulations SteveJr! :)

CONGRATULATIONS! What a cutie she is :)

Ms. Crimson Blonde,
My daughter says a great big "THANK YOU" for your art work.

awww...... my pleasure Steve :)

And finally it is time to be happy for you Steve. A new member to the Grandpa's Club. I *think* there is a small resemblance!! Well isn't there?
Here is a little "something" for you and the other new Granddads.

buf...that's real cute...yea, there does seem to be a resemblance....

I bet that some of the Moms would prefer it that way too!!!
