Prince Mascot on your Desktop

So you have a Prince desktop, Google homepage, phone wallpaper, and screen saver. You have Prince posters all over your room and you're wearing a Prince shirt as we speak. Prince music is always playing on your car, ipod, computer, or phone. If not, it's playing in your head.

You need more.

That's what this shimeji is for.

Important information:
Shimeji are little mascots that run around the desktop, and they DO clone so don't leave them on or they'll slow down your computer!! This is one that I made for my dad since today is his birthday party I'm a long time lurker and I thought I would share it with you folks. I'm not making any money off of this so hopefully Prince will think it's okay? It's not a virus either and it's easy to remove so don't worry cool
Shimeji is originally a Japanese program. There are a lot that have been made but they are mostly anime characters so I don't know if any of you are really interested in that shrug The original Shimeji can be found here: http://group-finity.com/Shimeji/
Shimeji can only be run on windows, and all you will need is the latest java.
You can download the latest java here: http://www.java.com/en/
And of course the actual Prince mascot is here: http://www.deviantart.com...3l7vdd.rar

Instructions for use
1. Click download link and wait for it to download
2. Extract the file to somewhere you know with a program like winRAR
3. Go to the extracted folder and double click the .exe (icon with the white face)
4. Wait like 5 or so seconds. It takes a little bit. Then Prince should come falling from the top of your screen biggrin
5. To remove, just delete the folder.
6. To edit the images go to the 'img' file and you will find all the .pngs. smile
7. If you want to delete a certain Prince on your screen then just right click him and click the option that appears

Right clicking the crappy looking Prince symbol at the bottom of the screen (should be in your tray) brings up a menu in japanese.
The options are:
1. Create a new Prince
2. Have Prince come over to your mouse--he does extra animations when you do this
3. Delete all Princes but one
4. Return any Internet browser screens Prince may have thrown off--yes these guys are mischievous. They dont do this often and they only do it if your browser is not full screen and if you have left it inactive.
5. Exit aka Get rid of all of them
