wondered if any of you guys had got the stuff of nintendo-europe's advent calender. the free gifts everyday range in quality, but you can download the entire calender so far.
Highlights: 3 mario sunshine tunes (excellant quality - its the nintendo differnece), recipes and smas bros. music. crap gifts: christmas decorations and yet more recipes (we ain't chefs y'know).
you should get the music if nothing else, it's free (no need to register either.)

Obviously, when you click browse find the folder you unzipped them to and select the one you want.

*ahem*

Extract the icons to somewhere.

Right click on the icon you want to change (note: you can't change IE, My PC or Recycle Bin) click properites and go to the customize tab.

At the bottom click 'browse' on change folder icon, voila.

They rock :D

Make sure you use Internet Explorer to access it.

For some reason when I load it through AOL it just comes up as a load of stupid text.

The Nintendo Europe webpage won't load up so I can't use the advent calender. It's being doing this for 2 weeks.
