Show us Your.........Desktop!

EfaustuS9 · 5th January 2003, 20:08

Its been done before I know, but I am fairly confident that many of you are proud of your desktop décor and want to show off that modified desktop with the neat wallpaper or what have you.

Mine is Mac’n ; ), a large 3d wallpaper with the somewhat standard Blue Windows bar on the bottom and a play list bar on the top the later of which works in conjunction with winamp and my large music collection. Absolutely No Icon Eye sours on the desktop, all frequently used programs have key board shortcuts (ie: internet explorer is F12, and so on) Finally I would like to close by saying Windows 98 SE is infinitely better then Windows X.tra P.oop, morons make the move to the fisher price desktop bloated with Microsoft proprietary software, but thats my opinion I could be wrong.

NetFury · 5th January 2003, 20:45

here's mine, nice and simple the way i like it. Win2k.

AjStone · 5th January 2003, 21:06

Oh for the love of Bilbo... Lock this thread! Where's Chev when you need him?!?!

Sorry new guy, but we've already had about 8 or 9 "Post your desktop" threads.

apollos · 5th January 2003, 21:46

Bilbo for God!!!

I was gonna have it 1600 x 1200 but that would have pissed too many people off

apollos · 5th January 2003, 21:47

oops, I guess it is pretty large
*hides*

InvisableMan · 5th January 2003, 22:03

ive had enough of the people making "post your desktop" threads every week. i call for a perma-sticky thread where you post your desktop and thats where you do it. stuff.

or not. but. im sick of these threads.

bleh. and you should know better. post desktop in attachments or links for the love of 56kers

fwgx · 5th January 2003, 22:09

What a waste of my 5k'th post

Lets discuss.... oh wait we don't like derailment round here either.

Carry on...

nierke · 5th January 2003, 22:10

couldn't you make it even bigger? Damn, actualy I don't care about other people desktops, and I dont like then someone looks at mine, whats the diferents how it looks? I use my PC not for looking at cool wallpapier....

...:::NierkE:::...

P.s.: I am very angry today

zootm · 5th January 2003, 22:16

yes, i'm linking to the attachment i put on in the other thread.

so sue me.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 5th January 2003, 23:50

This is a Metroid Prime wallpaper that I put together several day ago. I've got the original high-rez bitmap on my desktop, but I had to compress it into a jpg to attach it.

[edit]
Now that I look at it, the jpg version looks like shit compared to the original.

I really wish the winamp forums would allow us a maximum of 150KB or even just 125KB. Those extra 25KB makes a huge difference in these desktop shots.

psyfive · 6th January 2003, 00:51

ok here is mine.

[edit]
Sorry forgot to add the link.

http://www.geocities.com/rsclanz/currentdesktop.txt

the image found on my desktop can be found on my deviant art page... to get there click my name below.

SNYder · 6th January 2003, 01:06

For the LOVE OF GOD! Clean up your desktop

psyfive · 6th January 2003, 01:11

That IS clean. I had icons leading onto the second screen on my dual monitor system.

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 6th January 2003, 01:19

And I thought mine was cluttered with only three icons.

you are

get win2k. all the good bits of XP, without the faff.

hestermofet · 6th January 2003, 02:02

I've got no icons on my desktop. Instead, I've got a giant, discombobulated tuberous cranium to deal with.

EfaustuS9 · 6th January 2003, 02:15

here is the pic of my desktop that ended up
on my other posting and not this accedental one.

Also xp has better game support than windows 2000 and windows 98 has better game support then both. though both xp and 2000 are conciderably more stable then 98.

steak · 6th January 2003, 02:18

Don’t you think it would be funny to geta list of exactly how many ‘show us your desktop’ threads exist…I can’t be bothered to count really

hestermofet · 6th January 2003, 02:20

What would be funnier is a list of how many "Mp3 to wav?" threads there are/were. No, correction. That wouldn't be funny. That would be tedious. And saddening.

6th January 2003, 02:52

I'll just describe it. It's a pastel blue with lots of freakin' fluffy bunnies on it.

Yeah, we're still out here, 25 miles from civilization...

sgtfuzzbubble011 · 6th January 2003, 03:53

Well AJ, I live about 20 miles from civilization (if you can call it that), and I've got satellite. I love being able to download 4meg mp3s in 30 seconds, but honestly, I'd give it up just to have my AIM and mIRC back.

And thanks, SNYder. Took me a couple hours to get it the way it is, and I'm still not done with it.

Bizznatch · 6th January 2003, 07:42
