French toast: Nice desktop, you have an IRC client but I never see you on the snarkpit IRC channel.

Fatstrings: Nice desktop as well, does the vista perform well on your computer?

Yak_Fighter: I like your wall paper. You have unreal ed. What version of unreal do you work with? I was given a 1000 paged book "Mastering Unreal Technology" and a disc with a crap load of unreal 2 tools recently. Its all about the unreal 2 engine.

Riven: Theres Riven showing off his three monitors. Actrully, I had problems viewing your pictures, I could only see one section with the full res shot and two sections with the low res shot, I wasn't able to view the last one at all.

My wallpaper is just a random shot from STALKER that I saw somewhere.

As for Unrealed, I've been trying the one that came with UT2k4, which is UE2.5 or something I think. I haven't been feeling very inspired with it though :/

Desktop image is a section of the crab nebula, I change it often, this one is kind of barfy-looking up close. I never use my icons, they're always hidden. I don't see my desktop often enough for them to be useful.
My task bar is three levels wide, and autohides. Beyond the 30 quicklaunch icons that are visible I have folders that contain every program I ever use and many which I don't. <3 quicklaunch

Riven, where it says "BBCode enabled" click on "BBCode" it lists everything there and how to use it (using thumbnails is listed there)

My desktop looks like ass, it's very cluttered at the moment.

I'm using my (new) TV as a secondary monitor, but it's really just for watching stuff.



Blame it on Microsoft, God does.

Thanks for the description Baron. I would raise my start menu higher than 1 bar but my screen res is only 1280X800 which is (16:10), pretty much wide screen. So I need all the space for the applications I run that I can.

Not much to say about yours crono because I cant see anything, only a Nintendo wall paper.

I've noticed that people still have windows 2000, does it run faster than XP or something?

Aaron, you fool, it's called the classic theme. And if you clicked the link, it loads the bigger picture.

But, yes, in general 2000 does run faster than XP (even if they are using sister kernels)

Where, there is no link?

So if I was to convert to Windows 2000, does this mean my Orange Box would run properly even though I have well over the minimum requirements and fall just below the recommended requirements, but my Orange Box struggles to run on the lowest possible settings?

I'm with Vaalbara here:

This is what happens when you get too used to Mac-desktops where the desktop picture stays you background even for programs like Photoshop. I already changed it from 128 grey to blue... to spice things up, you know.

Auto hide, enable it and you have even more space no matter how big your taskbar is.

And my desktop:

If you ask me, STALKER looks more realistic than Crysis.

As for me. image

EDIT: gramer



Reality has become a commodity.
