Funny prank

[ViRUS]

Just run the app and press the Y or the F11 key, depending on which .exe you download.

Have fun!

Broken screen:
This one activates when you press F11
This one activates when you press the Y key

BSOD:
This one activates when you press F11
This one activates when you press the Y key

 It would be nice if there was a better method for closing it than Alt-F4ing...

6.5MB!?
What did you do, write it in VB6 then statically link in the image libraries?

nope, it just shows the image

What did you do, write it in VB6 then statically link in the image libraries?

I created several .jpg images with different resolutions so it won't look stretched under most circumstances
it "supports" the following resolutions: 1024x600, 1024x768, 1280x800, 1280x1024, 1440x900, 1920x1080 and 1680x1050

Should've just gone for 1024x768 and clipped.

Or, since the entire background is a repeating pattern, split it into 2, repeatedly blit the background then overlay the foreground.

Or, if you're feeling extra finicky, do it all by hand using the .NET image library.

You should have horror music playing as well.

that would just be cheesy xD

[chimaeraUndying]

Good point.

You might want to replace the current image with a BSOD.

Or a hard disk failure message

I think it's a pretty accurate image, although the circumstances in which it pops up might be a bit of a clue.  Especially realistic on a 1920 X 1080 monitor.

Had tried with transparency so you could see your stuff behind, though didn't work as well, and the image was loads larger
