djnick write on http://www.amigaworld.net
Greetings to Amiga friends. I decided to release what I've done up to now after Amiga community bought me Sam460ex motherboard in February 2012:
- I've designed a complete AmigaOS.net web site:
http://www.amigaos.net/
Credits page:
http://amigaos.net/content/88/website
Created 1st AmigaOS4+ theme called "Crystal". With this theme you will get:
- skinned toolbars and windows
- new mouse graphics
- redesigned requester icons and all menus / submenus
- my boot and error sound samples [composed in Renoise tracker]
- my Amiga Encounter wallpaper in 6 different resolutions (800x600; 1024x768; 1280x1024, 1440x900, 1680x1050 and 1920x1080px)
- redesigned MUI preferences so it matches Crystal theme set
- changed Filer preferences so its default colors matches Crystal theme set
- added new skin for AmiDock and its horizontal and vertical subdocks / submenus.
- added script for black Shell and coloured text
Download link:

Created set of 14 full HD wallpapers (AmigaEncounter, Abstract, Abstract v2, Abstract v3, Impact, Matrix [+Matrix col2], Futur, Retro, Retro v2, Space [+Space-green], The Ball, The Ball v2 and Xtra) resized into 6 different resolutions: 800x600; 1024x768; 1280x1024, 1440x900, 1680x1050 and 1920x1080px.

Collected 86 FREE good looking and working skins for your AmigaAMP mp3 player [http://www.amigaamp.de/] by Thomas Wenzel [www.toms-home.de]
http://os4depot.net/index.php?function=showfile&file=graphics/theme/amigaamp-skins.zip
Screenshot: http://os4depot.net/index.php?function=modules/snapshot/display&fileid=7964
Created cartoon music video (that became very popular up to now) with Amiga X1000 in the background here:
Mama voli bebu // Mommy Loves Baby [over 2.3 million views up to now]:
http://youtu.be/FDBqs7GOY_w
English version [over 260.000 views up to now]:
http://youtu.be/3uKFzqmijbk
... so many people are aware about new Amiga existence in 2013.
Redesigned: Amiga-Look's website logo and header
http://www.amiga-look.org/ and used this site to upload all my work that I have done for AmigaOS [and later OS4depot.net]
Quick background work for Jack.
Excalibur theme [I think it is not fully implemented and the way I wanted].
Smaller graphics [logos, backgrounds and header designs] for various users from Amiga world.
* * * F.A.Q: * * *
* WHY IT TOOK SOOOO LONG:
- Bounty is finished in February 2012. Then it took over a month to receive motherboard. System couldn't boot so I had to order SATA cards from Australia. Thank you Belxjander for sending it to me.
- In the mean time I invested [~440 Eur] into new tower case, UPS, hard disk, DVD Rom, graphics card, USB Flash, keyboard, mouse, USB hub.
- After receiving SATA cards in April 2012 - system couldn't boot for over 3 months of really hard working and setting. AmigaOS4.1 update 2 boots for the first time in June 2012 [again thanks to Belxjander].
- In June I got Maxim baby boy so it took me another 2 months for movements from one town to another and preparing place for family. During that time I had enormous of work for various clients [video production, ads, commercials, animations, music, sfx, games, UI and web design]...
- In September 2012 I started to create themes, but it didn't work as I expected. As I am just a designer [without any programming knowledge] - creating the theme was an extremely large and time consuming problem [discovering how the system works, where are UI parts etc].
- InBetween Skinning and life I used to create everything others I listed in the beginning.
- And finally 1st theme is finished [with large help from Kas1e] this week, 1,5 years later after bounty is finished.
* VIDEO PRODUCTION ABOUT AMIGA SYSTEM?
As soon as I get fully working 3D driver I will record a video about AmigaOS and put it on my channel [I already have over 26 million visitors, over 9000 subscribers, between 50 and 100.000 viewers every day and over 2 millions comes by month].
My youtube tracking visits link:
http://socialblade.com/youtube/user/djnykk
I will not record AmigaOS in its current state [as my graphic drivers are not capable of playing video at full speed, displaying Youtube videos, working in Graphics and Desktop Publishing software, composing music... etc.] as it will receive lots of negative votes.
I hope I explained all in very short text. More work will come in future.

| Silicon Dreams/VCF 2013 UK Tech Event |

Mikey_C write on http://www.amigaworld.net
The above event will be taking place on 5-7 JULY 2013 -
At SNIBSTON DISCOVERY MUSEUM, ASHBY ROAD, COALVILLE, LEICESTERSHIRE LE67 3LN.
The Saturday and Sunday are the general days for the public and it is when the Amiga area will be up and running.
Present will be members of Amiga North Thames and we will have various Classic Amiga computers running classic games such as Stunt Car racer and multi-player Skidmarks on various tables.
Alongside the Classic Amiga stuff there will of course be new AmigaOS4.x machines running various bits and bobs.
In addition AROS and MOS will be represented.
I am proud to announce that AmigaKit and A-EON will be in attendance themselves and will be there throughout the whole weekend selling and demonstrating products.
On a personal note, this will be the last UK Amiga event I will be co-ordinating. It has been a frustrating experience this time round, with many emails going unanswered.
So, lets all have a final hoorah! - Hope to see you all there!

From Friday 12th till Sunday the 14th of July 2013 the Amiga Club Osnabrück and the Amiga Club Steinfurt are celebrating another hardware meeting.
So if you're interested in MorphOS you're welcome. Beside Pegasos systems we expect also Mac mini, PowerMac, iBooks, PowerMac G5, iMac G5 and of course Efikas. Of course other systems are welcome, too. We expect at least one AmigaOS4 system.
If you want to bring in your hardware then please inform us as soon as possible, because the space for external users is limited. Of course you can just stop for a visit if you like.
I know a laptop running MorphOS takes no big space and is portable, but I still need to know about the number of attendees. So if you are interested, please contact me as soon as possible. There is one thing for sure: This will be a big one!
The participation is as always free of charge.

An new version of the WarpJPEG datatype is now available for download from http://www.warpdt.co.uk/ and also via AmiUpdate or Aminet with the following changes:
- Updated with IJG jpeglib v9.
- Support lossless files created with improved compression encoder.
- Support files with invalid component identifiers (created by
Adobe PDF).
The WarpDT package comprises of a collection of picture datatypes, and an accompanying easy-to-use preferences program. The image formats currently supported are JFIF/JPEG, PNG, TIFF, Windows BMP, PCX and PSD (Adobe Photoshop®), although support for more formats is planned. One of the key features of the datatypes is their superior decoding speed (hence the name Warp), especially on PowerPC equipped systems, and most importantly not at the expense of power and features.
The WarpDT package (WarpJPEG, WarpPNG, WarpTIFF, WarpBMP, WarpPCX, WarpPSD and WarpDTPrefs) is shareware, which means you are expected to register if you find the datatypes useful after an evaluation period of 30 days, and wish to continue using them.

Amiga Future: cheats database Update
The cheats database of Amiga Future is updates weekly by David Jahn, even at first sight if it is not immediately apparent.
This is probably also due to the changes do not show up do not update the list of cheat codes database.
In the last two weeks, many functions were checked for example by Hacker, Hacker 2, Hägar, Hammerfist, Hangar 18 and many others.
In addition, new downloads were linked (those full versions, in the meantime online) and in the meantime noticed errors (wrong game name), incorrect entries, spelling, ect. fixed or eliminated.
The cheat database on the Amiga Future webpage is probably the biggest German collection for the Amiga.
This is not just about cheats. Many solutions, tips and tricks, as well as Freezer addresses can be found in this collection.
Meanwhile you can find 3420 Games Cheats and solutions in the database, and there is always more.
The database is currently completely in German. If we receive enough donations for the website, we have planned to integrate a proper online database, which will also be available in English.
