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.

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.

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)

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

Hehe.
2000 Professional is the standard for me, things run so smooth with it.
