In years past there have been desktop links to the different camaras. Anybody know if there will be links again for this one? Thanks : )

The top set is high speed and the next one is medium. The last I checked they weren't doing a 56k feed this season.

I'm trying to figure out an easy way to make them as icons on the desktop. I know how to do it but my method is pretty convoluted and hard to describe. Maybe someone else will have an idea.

Can't you just right click on the desktop, select New Shortcut, and put the link in as the location when it asks? Works for me in XP and RealPlayer 10.5.

I don't know if it works this way for everyone, but if I make the link like this on the board and then drag and drop it on my desk top from the board, then I have cam 1 link that actually says cam 1 on my desk top.

cam 1 - 256 link below using \link tag

Oh that is good Naja!

Dragging doesn't work for me, but if you right click on it, you can then click on Copy Shortcut and then right click again on the Desktop and click Paste Shortcut.

I missed seeing this earlier but thanks for your suggestion as well, Justin. That's a good description of how to do it and that would work too but it's a little more manual than what Naja has come up with.

Jimmer, drag and drop may actually work for you. I noticed it takes me 3 or 4 tries to actually click on and find the right spot to be able to drag it.

Fraid not. I know I used to be able to do it but drag and drop hasn't worked for me since I got this version of IE. I have IE 7.

What are you using?

How do you like Opera? I've used IE and Firefox but I haven't tried Opera.

I love opera. I have been using it for 4 years. I use IE for the random things that come up once in awhile that won't work in Opera.

I think I like the total ease of customization. I have it set to use windows instead tabs, also. I have never been able to get used to tabs.

Thanks for the easy links. I couldn't drop and drag, so I copied and pasted shortcut to desktop and it worked.
