ok heres my dillema again ill try to type it so u can see wut it says for the programing
Taget type: Application

Target location: system

Target: "C:Program FilesPiranha-BytesGothicsystemgothic.exe"

Satr in: "C:Program FilesPiranha-BytesGothic"

shortcut key: none

Run: normal window

then their is some clicky thingys that say " find target..." "change icon" "advanced" and at the top of the window it says gothic properties their is also tabs that say "General" "shortcut" "compatibility" so thats what the window shows when i right click and select properties. when i type in
-devmode it says " the name 'C:Program FilesPiranha-BytesGothicsystemgothic.exe -devmode" specified in the target box is not valid. make sure the path and file name are correct." i have windows xp home eddition and i dont know if that would change nething and last of all do i need to download a new version of gothic to get marvin mode?

....Make sure you put one space between the exe and the - gothic.exe -devmode
Also you might want to click on the find target button to make sure the short cut is pointing to the correct file

2 questions:

1) what version of windows are you running?
2) from the description you gave above it sounds like you may be in DOS mode

Put the -devmode part OUTSIDE/AFTER the quotation marks.. inside the quotes is only a valid pathname.

If you have the American Version....You dont need to put "-devmode" in.
