One-upped - A simple prank to pull using the Exposé blob
My favorite under OS9 was this: Take a copy of the alert sound out of the system folder. The QUACK worked well. Change the icon of the sound file to the icon of the hard drive. Rename the sound the name of the hard drive with a couple of spaces before and after it so it is differently named. Then, the trick: If you hold down CMD on OS9 and drag the icon near the hard drive icon. It will "snap" to the HD's position, not go into it. It will wind up ON TOP of the HD icon! So when the person double clicks the HD, all they get is "Quack!" The success of the prank is measured in the number of restarts the victim does!

Well, I'm not sure how to drag an icon on top of another without moving the icon into the other, but for playing sounds, use a program called PlaySound (http://microcosmsoftware.com/playsound/). It will play almost any sound on open. Just set your sounds to open with this program and you're set. |
