A flash desktop, but I need help.

from WinCustomize Forums
Hey, I'm looking to create a desktop with macromedia flash. I've never really done the wincustomize kinda thing, so its probably not my place to try and so something new and wierd like this, but I'm like that. Anyway,I'm using html and flash and I'm wondering if anyone has a list of functions and protocol commands and stuff that I could use.

tnx

You might experience some problems. Flash is extremely processor and memory hungry. If you leave a Flash running as a permanent process on your desktop, you'll slow your computer so much it will probably will be unusable.

I know this thread is kinda old, but there is a program called Flash Wallpaper by a company called Tenmiles

The program is fairly easy to use. I've made one desktop so far - a simple little thing with a flash digital clock, but suddenly the possibilities are limitless!

DesktopX looks cool. How easy is it to put flash objects into? With an ActiveX control? and if one is using objects made from flash, doesn't it present the same impact on system resources? I'm still learning Actionscript myself. Would I need to learn some vbscript or more javascript to get things working in desktopX?

I do eventually plan to get back into javascript maybe after I'm done learning actionscript (since they are both based on the same language, should be natural)
