This is my family desktop at the moment. The background is a photograph taken near Helvellyn in the Lake District. I chose it cause it looks wintery/christmasy :)
Don't mind the mess of Steam games. :)

I once tried to climb Helvellyn in that weather a long time ago. I had to give up, because the snow was covering my waist.

I like my clean desktop.:)

Looks like Windows 95.

Nate 12-25-2011 06:22 PM

Looks like Windows 3.1 to me.

Crashpunk 12-26-2011 03:19 AM

Looks like Windows 1.0.

Phylum 12-26-2011 03:31 AM

It looks like DOS 6.

Right?

JennyGenesis 12-26-2011 03:52 AM

I love the icon named "The Internet"

New background. Reflects my mindset at the moment.

Wings of Fire 12-26-2011 04:35 AM

But why do you have a desktop icons folder on your desktop...

Ridg3 12-26-2011 04:46 AM

Because it looks much neater than having 31 extra icons cluttering up my screen, including a folder that has unused desktop icons.

I having a clear out of my hard-drive later on so I might say goodbye to most if not all of them.

It's none of those. -_-

It's Windows 7 with a different shell installed, I prefer it, and I chose to keep the old icons because I like them more. :happy:

Ridg3 12-26-2011 04:58 AM

Is it Windows 7?

Ridg3 12-26-2011 06:33 AM

I'm being serious, my man. Why?

Wings of Fire 12-26-2011 06:50 AM

So he was right then?

I don't see the problem here.

RoryF 12-26-2011 07:26 AM

I said it was Windows 7 in my post, and then he posted is it Windows 7, so I didn't know if he had missed it or was playing some joke. :p

Wings of Fire 12-26-2011 07:34 AM

He was the first person who guessed right though!

Why would you make Windows 7 look that ugly?

I KNOW, RITE?

P.S. DOS 6 came out after Windows 1.

To me it doesn't seem ugly, I actually like it like that. Although, I'll probably end up changing the wallpaper sometime, it just doesn't seem like it fits.

Jordan 12-27-2011 05:06 AM

I don't get when people make newer operating systems look really basic. It would just irritate me!

JennyGenesis 12-27-2011 05:27 AM

People should feel lucky that they can customise the look of their operating system...

£1300+ and I'm stuck with one look :/

STM 12-27-2011 05:37 AM

I love the retro look but I also like the sleek looking windows 7 style gooey, which one is better? There's only one way to find out...

Crashpunk 12-27-2011 08:33 AM

Heh yep. I like the look of Vista/Windows 7 quite a lot, I would never change it. especially to a Windows 95 look. ewww!

Apple also opposes being able to change your OS' appearance. :p

Underneath that shell I have a different desktop, they're equal in my opinion. By the way the background image is from the 5th version of 2Advanced's website, it's damn good. :D

Having the task bar over this icons bothers me.

STM 12-31-2011 05:49 AM

You should probably not do that on your desktop then.

sheridanm962 12-31-2011 06:01 AM

It auto-hides, I was hovering my mouse over it.

JennyGenesis 12-31-2011 06:03 AM

The auto hide would bother me to :p

Yeah I'm fussy with this stuff.

Phylum 12-31-2011 06:05 AM

Quake 3? I get the feeling I'm going to like you.
