On browsing the forums, I didn't find a thread where people could post their desktops, so I thought I would make one

Post your current desktop here and please update us when you personalise or edit it I think that someone's desktop can often show a great deal about their personality, their loves or hates and their hobbies or interests. I love seeing what images people have as wallpaper too, have seen some really funky designs in my time.

Here is mine, the background is a little odd when captured stationary as its an animation. This is my music desktop where I have it sitting the most, I currently use 5 desktops on rotation using Beryl. if you'd like to know more on customising Linux, just ask me and I'll be glad to help just click to enlarge:



If you need a place to upload your screenie to, may I suggest www.freeimagehosting.net or www.imageshack.us for pure simplicity

Mine is boring and lame...

sorry...

Lolz, what are you apologizing for?

You can always vamp it up should you want to I'd be happy to help if thats something you want to do! I could send you some wallpapers etcand help you customise the color sceme etc.

But then you might like it just tthe way it is

LOL, watch out for flash fires.

That is my webserver, I really dont care about schemes and background. I'll post the one from my laptop later..its much prettier. And my Windows machine has pics of my son for the background and I dont want those posted and I'm not changing it

Lols, yeah, I panicked for a second and was just standing there with a burning wok in hand trying to remember my fire training as a chef before I tound a towel and covered the pan. By that time there was a layer of ash on everything and the air was black lol, coughing like mad now. Managed to put a circular burn into the countertop, oups... could have been so much worse though!

Look forward to seeing the lappy desktop

how are you all taking screenies of your desktops

I know macs can probably do it, but can regular old boring PCs too?  I know I'm not computer literate

Yep - Macs can do everything   They have a grab utility included with OS.

For Christmas I'm getting a mac for when I move away to college, woohoo for macs!!

I love my Mac.  I made the switch 6 years ago and I am so happy I did.  Getting Leopard next week on my Mac Book

I love my Mac, too. Steph -- how's Leopard working for you, anyway? It looks so pretty! I haven't gotten it yet cause I'm unsure how it will work on my iMac G5 and also I have CS2 and I don't know if it will work in Leopard (CS3 only works in Intel macs, sadly, and I use CS2 way to much for different design things).

cool topic

Here' is my screen capture (I had to blur out a couple of things, of course).

The background image is a picture I made (also is my icon in here, LOL)

I just realized that my desktop looks like a teenage girls -- just more cleaned up (yeah, i actually cleaned it up a bit before I posted it to some how make me look more organized). I'm just realizing that my "appointments" on there are just appointments for people to hang out with and doctors. Wow, my life is weird. And of course, the reminder for me to get a job. LOL.   I look organized and professional until you start seeing what's actually written. hehe

LOVING the desktops so far most seem to have a kinda scenic lilt to them which is great, I'm a big fan of Top Gear too, so Chris, your's kinda reminds me of that hehe

Keep em coming this is good!

btw, if you are unsure how to make a screenshot. just hit the Prt Scr button on your kyboard, open up MS Paint or your fav paint program and hit the 'Edit' menue, then 'Paste' (or just Ctrl + V on your keyboard) et voila! you have a screenshot then just save it as a jpg to wherever you like, probably your desktop is best for convenience

For the longest time:


But then,

Or depending on my mood:


Some think I need to clean my desktop...


 

*shrug* Normally when I find the "right" wallpaper it will stay for quite some time indeed. This one is a SS from TES4:Oblivion, fwiw.

Exciting, isn't it?

I find it interesting there is only 1 Vista user so far. You would think the way Micro $oft touts it, everybody is using it. Nice to see a bunch of Mac users. My personal Favorite is Linux though...wich is pretty much what Macs use.
