Ok, well ive seen this on many other forum's, so lets have a go at it. To take a picture of your desktop press "prt scrn". Then go to paint and press "ctrl+v" and theres your image. Upload it and post the LINK not the IMAGE, so it doesnt stretch the forum.

Remember so that this thread doesnt become spam, answer in full sentences. Here are some questions to answer in your post:
What the things on your computer do??
Rate each others desktop.
Where you got the background image.

@ The people wanting to know about visual styles: Windows Blinds is a nice program to look into. Only costs 20$, and it will do what you want. I used to use it, but it's a big resource hog.

I'll come back with a screen shot later this week, my new laptop is supposed to arrive Tuesday {Cheesy}

ha Bear share ha, I feel very sorry for your computer, so many viruses. You probably don't know about the Backdoor Viruses and Malware, that is packed loaded into it. My friend used it, and within a week his laptop crashed, and he just got it re done to after the last crash. He has an XP.

Lol, I rarely use Bearshare, though.

I've never had any problem with it. What did he use it for?

Re: Post your desktop - Posted By Nick (nickb) on 29th Apr 08 at 6:57pm
He used it for music. He downloaded a song, and it was .wma which on bearshare, limewire etc. Is a virus. He showed me that he got over 1400 viruses and it crashed it within a week. I use limewire, but im smart enough not to get wma, only .mp3. {Tongue Out} and of course I pay for limewire. thats another reason why I can't learn from wrighty for tutoring {Sad} .

Mine. There's a story behind it. A lengthy story, so bear with me.

My boyfriend (Matt) is in a Spanish class. My friend (Marisa) and I sit in on it every day, because we're awesome like that. And the teacher assigned an extra credit assignment, doing a "Day In The Life" poster, where we write ten sentences (and take pictures to illustrate them) that show what life is like for anything we chose. So we made a family of fruit using googly eyes and sharpies, plus some construction paper, glue, and yarn. It took us three hours to do the project.

That is, if you're counting excessive laughing, a half hour wrestling match, the untimely death of Senor Manzana (Mr. Apple) after I threw Matt during the wrestling match...

I love Spanish projects. xD

'wrestling' {Tongue Out}

I agree.... I Smiley your wallpaper! {Smile}

Re: Post your desktop - Posted By Paddy (artemis) on 14th May 08 at 9:37pm
... It was wrestling... >.>

He had the scissors, and frankly, that's a dangerous situation for everyone involved. And he refused to relinquish them. Which called for tickling. Which led to wrestling.

.. Yeah... It sounded a lot better when I didn't explain it...

Even without the backstory (which i thought was excellent) that's a cracking background. Wins every time {Cheesy}

Re: Post your desktop - Posted By Paddy (artemis) on 14th May 08 at 9:42pm
Come to think of it...

... Wrestling him while he held scissors probably wasn't safe, either. o.O

One of us should really post a desktop pic before we get yelled at. xD

I know, so exciting. {Tongue Out} I do have Leopard, I just like the Tiger background better.

Also, if anyone knows how to remove that Macintosh HD icon from the desktop, I'd really like to get rid of it.

Re: Post your desktop - Posted By Nick (nickb) on 26th May 08 at 5:23pm
You can rename it, my friend did. I don't know if mac has right click, but if it does right click and rename, I renamed my C:/ drive to my name.

Re: Post your desktop - Posted By Mithras (mithras) on 26th May 08 at 6:44pm
Ya, I know how to rename it. I want to remove the icon all together.
