I took that picture with my phone, oh, maybe a year and half ago. Just pointed it at the light through my fingers after it had been adjusted to darkness.
...how did you do that?Quote:

I was going to, I printed the screen and everything, but it was too much effort in the end.
Don't save as .bmp (bit map). :pQuote:

Err it's my boy's laptop after all... :(
Finally, a chance to post my desktop!
Hmm. I suppose I should (go out of my way to) cater for the slightly more... crippled member of the community. Equal rights, and so on. Here’s an easier hyperlink for you:

Because of this thread, and me not changing my desktop in several months, I've gone on an anime related hunt, and have changed it at least once every hour when I get bored of it, so this is the one I have up now, Death Note related.
I like it when desktops are full of icons. <3

My desktop
I do have XP, just my PC is so crap that any extra space I can save I do, so bye bye fancy display and buttons :(
The 69 eyes ftw.
:)
I can't...I'd get banned. :(
Here's mine.
I always get tired of whatever's on my desktop, so I opted for a program that changes the pic every 15 mins :love: Is it weird for a chic to like wrestling? Well, I do. :cool:
Oh? What's it called?Quote:

Microsoft provide a version for free also under their XP Powertools...Quote:

My current desktop. It's a scene an epsiode of 'Beast Wars'. Season 2, 'Coming of the Fuzors' part 2. One of the coolest episodes from one of the best shows ever :bigsmile:
Right, I've changed it at least a dozen times since the last time I posted, if not more, so this is my new desktop, and it should stay like this for a day or so, well from when I go to bed until I wake up at least ^^;
There's mine.
I made it, so it must be Panic! :bigsmile:
I made the wallpaper myself, using images of stuff I like and a photo I took in Hawaii a few years ago ^^.
edit: lol a chunk of lilis hip is missing XD
in b4 cid-
o wait
There we go. :secretive:
I love "Tonari no Totoro." Hence, it is my current desktop.
HELLO YES
I'll second what Zeldy said.
For some reason I always change my desktop when I see one of these threads... Anyway, a pic of Saturn a friend took when me and a group of others went camping last weekend seems to have made its way on to my screen today.

Here, I redid it. <3
I noticed on some, namely Iceglow and Cid's that they have a thing on the side with the time and such. What program is that? *is curious*
Also, where did you get that Windows theme roto?
My desktop
I made my own wallpaper as well. ^_^
Just regular black for me...

I used UX Theme Multi Patcher to enable custom themes, and downloaded that one from Deviant Art.Quote:

I'd post a screenshot of my current desktop, but it's half full of crap right now. :P
I love this default background
Bipper is that Kubuntu??
:love: :kaoclove: <3
What version?
(Oh, sorry... off topic... >_>)
Nope, it is Slackware 11 running KDE. Just my mail server/forum checker machine.
Me Desktop! :D
Gotcha gotcha, I wasn't sure cause the main panel looked kinda different but that desktop comes default in Kubuntu as well ^^Quote:

This is my desktop of Ishida from Bleach. I did have Renji beacuse he's cooler but I like this background more.
I have heard that from several people. I however, have never really had a problem that was not solved with minor tinkering. Then again, I use slackware. The most stable and sexy featured Distro I know of. I heard more problems with Kubuntu and mandrake than any other distro.Quote:

I'm not a power user. I don't need every option available to me from the outset. If I need something Gnome is more than configurable. I also use more Gnome-oriented software than I do KDE, so i figure I might as well not waste my time installing Gnome dependencies in KDE.
The best combination I have ever made ;) (and the best wallpaper I have ever made)
I scanned in a picture of Gamma from a Zombie Powder manga I have. Pictures don't upload for me, so I had to link it.

Ubuntu 7.04 "Feisty Fawn". Gnome 2.18. Beryl 2.0.1 composite manager. Avant Window Navigator (the launcher at the bottom). Compiz Screenlets (the widget things on the side). Buuf icon theme. Carbonit GTK2 theme and GSM emerald theme.
AWN doesn't let you customize icons yet, so that's why I have the crappy Banshee and GIMP icons instead of the nice Buuf icons in the launcher. I think I have 25% transparencies on the cube so you can see the backsides of windows on other viewports.
Gosh I want Beryl. I've been having issues with it in Dapper. I'm going to be doing a fresh install of Feisty shortly though.
Mine usually looks like this when I boot up.

It's nice but way too finicky for me.Quote:

KDE is may be better than any version of Gnome, but Fluxbox is better. :p
Beryl is nice too, but it doesn't really work out with Fluxbox since they're both window managers. It would be nice to see *box functionality in Beryl someday.
[q=Hsu]I'm hoping that Feisty has the xorg updates that are supposed to really kick up performance for it. I haven't really read.[/q]
Do you mean modular XOrg-7.1? Can't you just install that from the repos? I thought it was in Edgy anyway.
Fluxbox is a nice WM, but I prefer E17.
Yeah, I like Enlightenment too, it's very similar to Fluxbox on the surface.
I didn't have any good reason to choose Flux over E17; I just like the configurability. :p
I actually checked earlier tonight and saw the version installed is 7.1, which is weird, because Firefox still scrolls like molasses when I have Beryl running, whichI thought it wasn't supposed to do with 7.1.Quote:

If Firefox is scrolling like molasses, then it could be your font rendering engine. Check this out; it could solve the scrolling problem and it will look a whole lot nicer. :pQuote:

I'm using Edgy's built-in AIGLX.Quote:

That's a cute one :)
One of them could've been barefoot though, like in the original, but I guess that couldn't be done...?
The first one I've had so far on the new PC.
I know it's too early for Christmas. :cat:
