Mine has been plain black for a year. I recently changed it to Grim Fandango.

Kind of a HL2 spoiler if you haven't beat the game yet

My print screen button does not work :/ Sadly. This is my wallpaper however :biggrin:

Cluttered as hell, a mess - nice wallpaper I found in the XP defaults though!

a bit messy....

Your desktop apparently lacks gravity to hold all the icons in place....

thank god i'm not a nerd, oh wait:

Your desktop apparently lacks gravity to hold all the icons in place....

i didnt move em around just for the screenshot.. they are just kinda
like that.. i guess no gravity kinda fits in with the theme of the
wallpaper - whatever as long as i have an excuse for icons floating
around :biggrin:

they are actually kinda in order... i know where everything is etc....

My two most common backgrounds. As you can tell, I hate having stuff on
my desktop. And I take an hour or so every few weeks to re-sort all my
directories and documents so they're all in order.

Mine's really clean and the background's a wallpaper from Myst 4 that I got off a PC Gamer disk.



And I like your XP theme, Gorb, it rox :eek:

It's a great theme based on the WinAmp 5 skin. Best theme I've ever
come across. Clean-cut and simple. While not disguising half the stuff
like most themes do.

Hehe. I sometimes will just stare at it then realize I got on my computer to actually do something. :biggrin:

But if I'm stressed out, and I log in and see her pic, she helps me get unstressed.

I just hate icons.

Heres mine:

I'm sure your right hand plays a role.

I used to be friends with her cousin. I remember when she wasn't
special, or even when she just did uncommon Canadian shows. Oh, how
times have changed.

I soo need a better theme and background... Whenever I search for backgrounds they always cost money, so I'm stuck with a stretched freebie 800*600 one :razz: Where do I get free custom themes etc anyway?

Pretty cluttered. The overlayed "logo" bird thingy came from my fan
cover - I got bored and traced the outline of the fan cover, scanned it
in, and overlayed it. As I said, I was very bored...

I bought a digi cam just after I left snarkpit, I went on a holiday to
the outer hebrides over onto stornaway and then 13 miles down to the
bottom of the island, it ended up like an sas survival course which was
an experience, we stayed in a cottage by the loch which was about half
a miles over hillsides from the road (yes carrying shopping half a
miles over scottish hills helps you with your fitness somewhat) which
also for half of our time spent there had no water, fortunately its so
remote we fed pipes into the loch and used buckets in the waterfall for
flushing the toilet :S

anyway, I took a fair few photo's out there and used one of them as my wallpaper.



(yes this does mean more textures eventually, but unfortunately my photoshop has snuffed so I cant do much for now)

Loco: Don't you know putting a million shortcuts on the desktop eats a lot of CPU? :eek: Such a bad habit : it creates unnecessary lag.

Mhh, time for me to clean up some stuff then... I've counted 84 on my desktop...

Anyway, my desktop background comes from Sparth, a concept artist I really admire:

I've had the same backdrop for the last 2 years and I don't think i'll be changing it any time soon. It's nice and simple, which I like - and doesn't send my eyes funny like so many backdrops do :smile:

How on earth does having shortcuts on your desktop eat up your CPU? It may take a little while to initally load all of the icons, but outside of that, I can't really see this being true, andrei.

(Screens can be small and still look good :razz: )

The filelinks are the problem. And it doesn't lag only when you enter
windows, it lags eachtime you change something on the desktop like
adding or deleting a file/folder/shortcut/whatever since windows
refreshes the desktop, reloading those filelinks.

Its based off the Vertigo comic Hellblazer looks really good aswell

Hehe, me too. Don't know why but it sort of reminded me of the first one at the end where he realises he's "The One".
