Yay! The desktop thread
 
Hello everyone. Take a screenshot of your desktop and share it with everyone. This is my desktop at the moment where I work.

AbeLover 02-27-2003 06:46 AM

This is my dekstop! (currently)
(poep in je hoofd means errrrr...well, litterally shit in your head:D )

Majic 02-27-2003 01:20 PM

Heres mine, but I have like 2 I switch between sometimes. Yah...

Facsimile 02-28-2003 01:49 AM

This is mine.
The Big Day Out is a massive music festival like thing that happens in NZ and Aus. I went this year and I feel proud. Because only one other person I know did.

EDIT: How did you guys keep yours the same size and not have it go way over the attachment limit? I had to make mine quite small.

Joshy 02-28-2003 07:28 AM

Well here's my humble desktop...

Cloverfield 03-05-2003 07:03 AM

Very true... you can't even change the colors if you wish to keep the XP style.

It's a program called WindowBlinds and can be downloaded from http://www.windowblinds.net/. But it's shareware and you get a nagging screen asking you to buy it when you start Windows.

The Xbox skin (which also includes the installation program, so you don't need to get it from the other site) can be downloaded from Xbox.com ... just need to be registered for Xbox.com.

You can also download other skins and stuff from sites like http://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?library=1 and http://www.customize.org/list/windowblinds.

Hello Facsimile. My desktop was originally 1025x768, but I used Photoshop to make the Image size 800x600. Then used the Save for Web option to save it to a web-friendly size. If you do not have Photoshop, then maybe you have another program that will allow you to do this.

And here is an update to my desktop. Yay! Tidus. He is so cute!!!!!!! :blush:

Xavier 04-27-2003 06:26 AM

my last one...

Cloverfield 04-27-2003 09:56 AM

Nice wallpaper Xavier! I'd forgotten all about this topic.

Here's one of my latest ones ... Sephiroth of course! It's a wallpaper I'm in the middle of working on, so it still has some work to go. I'll possibly be creating a series of FF music related wallpapers for my FF music site when it's up (one day).

Abe Babe...

The Red Muse 04-27-2003 10:39 AM

Heh--feel the wrath of my Windows 95!!!
See the darn desktop!
I have no need for big--fancy wallpapers-- I have pretty pictures ^___~!!
Such a spendid sight, isn't it?


Oh and Abe Babe--you have a lovely desktop! I really like the Sephiroth theme!

Disgruntled Intern 04-27-2003 04:20 PM

This is my Dark Lotus desktop.

Disgruntled Intern 04-27-2003 04:25 PM

And this is my new Twiztid desktop.

oddling 04-27-2003 10:24 PM

Hey, how do you do that? I can't figure out how to get a screenshot of my desktop.

Oddling l:c l

Ashe 04-28-2003 04:33 AM

Hello Oddling. You can press the Prnt Screen key on your keyboard to take a screenshot of your desktop. And everyone you all have such wonderful desktops!!!!!!! :)

Miss Odd 04-28-2003 11:18 PM

Hehehe :) Have a look at my one! Actually its my Dad's computer that I am not allowed to change any settings!!! Summoner Yuna
and AbeBabe you guys have so cool desktops.

Ill take a screenshot of MY cool laptop when I go back to school ;)!

~Miss Odd Serenity

P.S Thats so cool you can get skins for XP! Does the program ever go away after 30 days or something? and can u crack it?

oddling 04-28-2003 11:44 PM

Hey Summoner Yuna, sorry but your technique didn't work. I'm not sure why it didn't. Oh well, thanks for trying to help! Does anyone else know another way?

Oddling l:c l

I think I might know the problem... on some computers you need to hold down Alt or Ctrl at the same time as Print Screen :)

Maybe that will work!

~Miss Odd Serenity

Joshy 04-29-2003 04:41 AM

Well here's mine...

Miss Odd 04-29-2003 05:00 AM

~Miss Odd Serenity

Hmm... still not working. After you press those button, what are you supposed to do after that? Are you supposed to keep this window open or something?

Oddling l:c l

Majic 04-30-2003 01:36 AM

You go into something like MSPaint, and paste it. That auto copies it. You probably know how to attatch images from there. You might have to shrink it some though, but tahts not hard.

Miss Odd 05-02-2003 04:31 AM

I told ya I would give you all my "cool" one at school, didn't I ;)?

Well here it is... inspired by AbeBabe and Summoner Yuna, I have a FF background!! And I really love it too... that person is beautiful!

Oh yes... and I downloaded WindowBlinds!! I had the Xbox one before.. but i got tired of it, so now I have this Red buttonish one!

~Miss Odd Serenity

Ashe 05-06-2003 04:11 AM

Hello Miss Odd. I do like your wallpaper very much. It is beautiful. It is of Yuna. I am happy that I have helped inspire you to like Final Fantasy.
