Post a picture of your desktop here!

Warning: If you have a slower connection this thread'll probably take a while to load.

How to do it:

1. Adjust your windows and stuff so you can see the desktop, or whatever else you want to see.

2. If you have MS Windows:
Hit the Print Scrn/SysRq key on the upper right hand of your keyboard.

3. Open up MS Paint and hit Ctrl+V.

4. Crop and size the picture.

5. Save it on your hard drive.

6. Go to VillagePhotos.com or PhotoBucket.com and upload the picture.

7. Post it on here!

This is my fantasterrificabulous desktop.

Note: My resolution is at 1152x864

Ok, here is my rather empty desktop.

My cool desktop.

The actual background.

Ooh, what's this?

EDIT: Big enough for ya? Anyways, I just whipped up this crappy 'new' desktop in PSP7.

*raphael_is_cool* · 01-01-2004, 01:59 PM

I could do all that, or I could say 2 simple words: Elisha Cuthbert

<drools>
I'm happy with my desktop

*damnhooligan* · 01-01-2004, 02:15 PM

The little gun there isn't my background, but my winamp player. I'm all about matching and altering my desktop in every way shape an' form.

Nosferatu · 01-01-2004, 04:52 PM

Now, Mikey's not my favorite (Raphael and Donatello are), but I have him up because I'm practising my 'chucking lately and he kind of "helps to inspire me", ya know?

*PizzaPower* · 01-01-2004, 05:25 PM

I will post mine soon. But I made my own Desktop theme. Also. Which is one mine right now. It has TMNT sounds, desktop pattern, screen saver. If you want to see it and download it. E-mail me. Or PM me.

*JameO* · 01-01-2004, 08:38 PM

Here is mine for the moment. Crappy and homemade

.

*Anarky* · 01-02-2004, 06:29 AM

HAve you all got new PCs or why are your Desktops that empty?

Michaelangelo|DAH · 01-02-2004, 09:37 AM

Hmm, you don't have to fill your desktop up with Icons. You can hide all your icons by right clicking on your mouse, and then change something under Proberties i think!!! I'm not sure what you call it, cause my windows is in Danish

*JameO* · 01-02-2004, 09:47 AM

Yeah I hide all my icons or for certain things like messengers I just delete them cause it just takes up space and I dont need them there anyways.

Always have something real soothing to look at eh, Matt?

*Taloniss* · 01-02-2004, 01:25 PM

I change mine almost daily, so it's not worth me posting a pic. Usagi Yojimbo is on right now though.

If you look at mine, you'll a little folder in the QuickLaunch bar. That's where I put all of my stuff, but all of my programs are in my start bar.

*Anarky* · 01-02-2004, 01:53 PM

isn't that complicated. i mean what did MS invent the desktop for?

Nosferatu · 01-02-2004, 02:09 PM

All the stuff I need to use is right in my Start menu. I have thirteen shortcuts pinned to my Start menu.

The stuff I have on my desktop are only there because I either can't remove them (Recycle Bin) or I need them their otherwise I'll forget about them ('To Get' List and other urgent messages). I don't really know why I have the media player shortcut. I might as well delete that thing.

How is that complicated? All I have to do is click on the little folder without minimizing everything.

Michaelangelo|DAH · 01-02-2004, 05:40 PM

does anybody know how to change resolution on pictures???? My digital camera makes the pictures circa 2000x1500 when i upload them to my computer, Can i get a picture to be a lower resolution while it's still in the same quality???

*Anarky* · 01-02-2004, 05:43 PM

if i got you right then all you have to do is open the image in Photoshop or something and change the size of the picture
