Well you can load your own custom pic for the background, just load it onto a thumb drive, or connect your xbox to your network. Then browse pics, and locate the pic, and set it as your background image.

If you want to change/move/remove buttons etc I have no clue, I dont know if that's possible. The dashboard would probably end up restoring itself.

Yeah I just use Tversity to stream all my media from PC to 360 and then you can browse you pic library what you have on the PC via the 360 and once you see a pic you like just press the " Y " button to use as desktop backround. Thats all I do !

yeah Haggard its a good programme aint it ? I also have windows ME but its slow as hell and not as good and reliable as Tversity I dont think. I only found out ages after getting an xbox360 you could do this, LoL. Its great having whatever pic you want on there, shame its half covered by the dash though. Have to find/Use pics that are mainly top half pics if you know what I mean.

Yea, I have a problem with my windows media server, it doesnt like to share all the time. Sometimes the connection to my comp will time out with the normal media server, but after I installed tversity I could connect to tversity, and/or my media server.

love it :P

Yer thats the trouble I had too, Sometimes it would take ages to connect and sometimes the servers in the device manager services had dissabled and stuff on their own, Now and again id have to re enable media sharing whenever I wanted to stream, Ive never had 1 issue with Tversity apart from I dont like the way they set out your music, Like its all mixed up instead of in folders like on the PC and like they already have pics and films in folders, Its just the albums in my music are all over the place. Oh and its Free !!! :D
