Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, here it is, I know you've always wanted
a browser that incorporates POV-Ray in some form or other, for just 12
payments of $0.00, you can get this amazing...
Sorry.
I was just looking at a very good "tweaking" website I found recently, and I
saw something that would let you change the Internet Explorer logo that is
shown at the top-right of the window, you know, the spinning thingie? Save
the picture somewhere on your HD, then go to Start>Run> and type "regedit"
(w/o quotes). Double-click on "HKEY_CURRENT_USER", then "Microsoft",
"Internet Explorer", "Toolbar".
Right-click in the right pane of the window, select New>String Value and
name it "SmBrandBitmap" (again w/o quotes). Then, once you've entered the
name, double-click your "SmBrandBitmap" and, in the dialog box that appears,
type the path to whereever you've saved the file. Open IE, and voila!
there's your little pov logo.
Of course, for non-IE or -Windows users, this information is completely
useless, but oh well.

Comments? Questions? Criticism (most likely ;-)?

I already installed it :) I think that the animation was not looped very
smoothly, but it's a nice tweak :)

Thanks, I'll get this one into here (shows for Outlook too as I recall).  I
did one of these myself a while back, except not of POV-Ray.
There's also a large size for those or something.  I had done it before
installing Windows XP so I'll have to just try this out again to see if it
still works.  I forget what the other stuff about it was for that larger
size or whatever that was all about.

Yes, this is fun. I replaced the IE logo some years ago by a PoV-rendered
rotating earth :-)

I use a spinning diamond on a black background.  No photons yet :-)

Ey cool!
Will you add photons? And post it in here?

Which model did you use? Self-made or some existing?
