What does your desktop look like? V3

I think eighteen months is a long enough wait.

Pilot 07-16-2009 09:45 PM

Oh god....

My desktop is like one of those 'find the mistakes' pictures they put in the paper. How many mistakes can you find??

It's a bit more cluttered than it usually is. I suppose I've been a bit lazy lately.

You only posted that to get a cock joke in response. Well, you shan't!

I was looking for something to do with deep sea diving so I could find something with nice, dark colours. I saw one with a viper fish on, and it made me realise how much I like the photograph used on Bungle's Disco Volante. I'm not as overly mad on Bungle as I seem. It's just a huge coincidence that it happens to be their album that bears an image I like.

You'll notice that I have three browsers. Firefox is for me, IE is for Emily/brother/Louise and Chrome is on here at for my nephew. I wish we had other computers.
You'll also notice that there is a Mr. Bungle torrent. Again, coincidence. The bloody thing's been in Frostwire for eight months, and it's only up to 60%.

shaman 07-17-2009 06:57 AM

I think my favorite so far is WOF's.

Why don't you have seperate Windows logons for each user?

OddjobAbe 07-17-2009 07:01 AM

We do, but more often than not, either myself or my nephew are on for quite a while (I have a lot of work that can be done on the computer, and my nephew has a lot of video games), so we keep the three to a user so that the next user doesn't have to log off and wait for their own account to load up.

Laser 07-17-2009 07:03 AM

You all have some seriously messed up backgrounds.

Espically you, Oddjobabe.

OddjobAbe 07-17-2009 07:06 AM

I love goats mainly because I love goats' cheese.

shaman 07-17-2009 07:06 AM

Glad I'm not the only one with a farm animal for a background. :)

Laser 07-17-2009 07:09 AM

1) It is a Billy Goat with no testicles...so no milk female or otherwise

2) He is my pet, he's called Max :D

MeechMunchie 07-17-2009 08:54 AM

My shortcuts are constantly changing, so this is not really representative of what I do on the computer.

AlexFili 07-17-2009 08:56 AM

You all have way more complex backgrounds than me. I just have a plain-black desktop. It's almost always full of icons :p

Mine is a goddam chicken. You must have a REAL plain background if mine is more complex.

Laser 07-17-2009 11:01 AM

I must admit, The Meet The Spy video is the best outta them all.

Mac Sirloin 07-17-2009 11:04 AM

Oddjob, where did you get that background?

OddjobAbe 07-17-2009 11:07 AM

I just found it on the Google image search after I'd given up on "Deep sea divers".

Mac Sirloin 07-17-2009 11:10 AM

So...you just coincidentally found the Disco Volante cover?

OddjobAbe 07-17-2009 11:12 AM

No. I searched for it when I realised that it would make a nice background. I realised this because it is related to the sea.

I made the Oddworld desktop using Photoshop. Yeah i know its the Microsoft xp Bliss hill.

Wings of Fire 07-17-2009 01:37 PM

I don't think shadows work quite how you think they do.

Also props for OANST, Nate and Kastere.

I get my desktop backgrounds from either gamewallpapers.com or cgwallpapers.com. Both have some very very awesome wallpapers in almost every resolution.

Sorry for the bgi-arsed picture I have a 1680 x 1050 monitor. Yay most of us a smart enough to know that Vista is shit.

I changed it because of Kastere. I had a strange dream the other night that he was president of the United States while having a picnic underneath a tree. This is "dedicated" to him.

My old wallpaper was nice... but I love the Tallest's ambiguous relationship with one another even more than Roger's flamboyance.

WINDOWS 2000 FTW!

MeechMunchie 07-19-2009 08:30 AM

You seem to have multicoloured Jarate. Inkeeping with your avatar, perhaps?

OddjobAbe 07-19-2009 10:53 AM

They aren't multicoloured. They're all clear. It is the lights that are coloured.
I'm sure that you were aware of that, but I must make sure.

Pilot 07-19-2009 10:58 AM

Gay.
