Neat desktop!
Weirdly, I was just thinking of starting this thread up again, so I just took a screenshot of my desktop.
This is it. (http://www.familylees.net/~morgan/squeegeescreen.gif)
Except the icons aren't usually all highlighted, of course, but I thought it looked better that way :P
Since my desktop is boring, I decided to add a couple of captions. Here. (http://www.ldine91.freeserve.co.uk/misc/desktop.JPG)
Lem'ka> I couldn't access yours :???:
Andi> Nice wallpaper... I could have actually had a t-shirt with a similar design, but I was skint at the time :/
It works just fine for me. :???:
Interesting captions, those.
It works for me...
My free image hosting is down, so I can't put mine... &#A0;>:(
EDIT:
I hosted it on my own, so here it is...

That's a screenshot of the burning Skaarj mother ship. I was blue team.
... Lucky stiff.
Anyways, it looks neat :D
After reformatting... there's barely any changes. (http://www.ldine91.freeserve.co.uk/misc/Desktop.JPG)
mine is the picture of yoshi in the avatar selection box where you choose an avatar.
(the green thing in my signature)
That's your desktop? O_O
L'K> I think he meant it was his wallpaper.
Looking a lot cooler these days. (http://www.ldine91.freeserve.co.uk/misc/Desktop.JPG) There's a bit of a story behind the wallpaper which I'll explain in due course.
Heh...I have a desktop to show y'all, I just need to get it off of my dad's computer. I drew it myself, and in my opinion, it looks... B)
yep. i used the yoshi picture for my wallpaper.
Warning, ridiculously big... 1.1MB. (http://www.ldine91.freeserve.co.uk/misc/Desktop.PNG)
Spiffy though.
Hello, i'm new on this board!
anyway here (http://www.freewebs.com/lordoftheping/desktop.JPG) is my desktop (sorry about the big size).
(if i spelled something wrong sorry, my english is bad)
...wow. Do you run a two-monitor system?
Yes I do!
the above part is my secundairi monitor a 17 inch at 1024 768
and the lower my primairi 19 inch at 1280 1024
Welcome! Looks like another UT2004 player, huh? :D
Yeah, welcome :D
I changed the desktop in my gaming profile (http://jupiter.walagata.com/w/eyetyrant/prof2bak.gif). Why? Because the color scheme of the other one rendered it impossible to type sometimes O_O
I just made some new wallpaper and slapped it on with a matching Windowblinds skin.
EDIT: Whoops! Made it a link, it won't show up in the page now.

I recently changed it to that.
i might change my desktop soon......naaaah
Hey, wait a sec.... Lem'ka, why does your Populous icon look like a yellow bow tie? :-/
i had no idea how to get a new desktop i just sorta clicked on things and the end result was a yoshi desktop.
I just set Just 4 Fun my desktop wallpaper to Yoshi, too. But it look's kinda... not good. :-(

That's the icon for the new matchmaker client the Gabber cooked up when the normal lobby went down. I don't know exactly why that symbol was chosen, but it wasn't me who chose it :D
I thinks it's supposed to be a radioactive symbol.
Latest load of rubbish. (http://www.ldine91.freeserve.co.uk/misc/Desktop.JPG)
Not too bad. What is it supposed to be? A mushroom?
Mushrooms... MUSHROOMS! These specific MUSHROOMS! ;P
Yep, they're 'shrooms alright.
There's some kind of story behind this, right?
I dredge this topic from the grave to rejuvinate it with inhuman sacrifice.
My new desktop. (http://www.familylees.net/~morgan/revshot.gif)
I felt I needed a change. I'd had my previous one up for... a whole month O_O
Latest Load of Meh. (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v197/octarinelouise/RatsAndStuff/Desktop1.jpg)
Neat. I don't see any rats, though. :D
The latest tomfoolery. Or lack of tomfoolery. (http://www.ldine91.freeserve.co.uk/misc/Desktop.JPG)
Very clean, G3K. ;P
L'K, you play Neverwinter Nights? (or was it Knights? Damn, I forgot ^^;) Anyway, it's an MMORPG, isn't it?
You were right. It's Nights. And yes, I do. I just started, really -- and all I've done so far is the single player. You can play it single player as well.
Yey for laptops. (http://www.ldine91.freeserve.co.uk/misc/Desk2.JPG)
For the uninitiated, my mum recently got a laptop for her college work, which when she's not using is quite thoroughly mine. ;)
Nice system, Pentium M 1.7GHz with a gigabyte of RAM, ATi Radeon graphics and wireless networking capabilities... now I should be able to play UT from even the most remote farm (assuming it's a wireless-enabled farm, of course) :D

Better? ;) (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v197/octarinelouise/RatsAndStuff/Desktop2.jpg)
AAAHHH!!!! That's so sweet! Normally, it's pretty hard to get me to say something like that. There's just something about small rodents which makes me crack up... By the way, is that rat yours?
I'd post mine but I dont know how to :'(
Press print-screen, paste into Paint, or any other imaging software, save onto system, upload to a server/file hosting site.

Not sure if I've posted this desktop before, but here it is anyway.

The background has actually been streched, due to the wide aspect ratio of the screen resolution. Here is the original. (http://uk.geocities.com/benjconway79/pictures/mrsfore.jpg)
Looks nice. But... 72 Messages? O_o

Awe, quaint little Windows 98/ME! B) I haven't seen that in a while.

EDIT: Here's my desktop
<edited out to free up webspace and bandwidth>
Its very crowded. I need to organize it.
Latest madness. (http://www.ldine91.freeserve.co.uk/misc/Desktop.JPG)
I don't quite get it, but, here is what I think of XP's stupidity,
XP "MWAHAHA! &#A0;FOOLS! &#A0;I WILL HAVE MY REVENGE! &#A0;MORE MEMORY!!!!"
GENERAL PEPPER "Star Fox, we have an emergency! &#A0;XP is alive...and he's launched an attack against Corneria! &#A0;Enemy forces have sortied from XP's motherships and carriers are heading towards Corneria. &#A0;They've also built bases on several planets, and are firing IPBMs at Corneria. &#A0;Your help is crucial! &#A0;Corneria can take some hits, but with excessive damage, we will fall! &#A0;Protect Corneria, and wipe out XP's army! &#A0;We're counting on you, Star Fox!
Close, it's comparing Windows 95 and Windows XP's memory needs.
<3 Crazy Japanese people with too much free time
Yep, XP stinks. Why?...who knows. What's with the "bam" coming out of the bowl of...rice memory XD ?
Oh, and guess what game the above dialogue is from. :devil:
(replace all XP's with Andross, and take out the top line entirely).
I don't really see what the complaint is against XP, except it can't run LemEdit properly. But it's silly comparing its memory requirements to that of 95, because all PCs being released now with XP have at least 256MB of ram. But back in the days of Windows 95 and 98 they didn't have really complex programs or operating systems that require more than 64MB. So it's okay making progressively more complex software, as long as equivalently powerful hardware is available to accommodate it.
But it would have been possible to make winXP needing less Megs of RAM.
Windows 95 was made to run on a 386 at 4 MB RAM.
They sell gig ram sticks now, don't they?
Yeah, and the next version of Windows will probably need them!
