Pictures of your desktop

Postby Mr. SmartyPants » Thu Sep 02, 2004 12:38 am

didn't know where to put this, other places were like "show wallapers you made" and stuff, so if there's a better place, would a Mod move it?

anyway, post a pic of ur desktop!

press the print screen button on your keyboard (Prt Scr)
and then get into paint and go to edit, then paste

you probably would want some type of image manipulation program to make the file size smaller, like photoshop

wow I never knew this!!! XD XD Guess it works on PShop as well,I learnt something new today...yeah!

SmartyPants, you can attach the image like what Elric-kun did (or what I'm doing).

Sorry, I have nothing really cool about my desktop...very plain and simple. Even the image was posted by someone here in CAA, I love the cute face and I need something like that to cheer me up everyday. ^_~

Yes. Mr Smarty Pants, I've converted your post to an attachment, because it's very large. For big images, it's more courteous for our dialup users.

*Cringes*

It's very, very bad for your system to keep actual files other than 1kb shortcuts on your desktop. Files like .avis don't belong there ... but I won't mention any names. Hey, HITOKIRI, while I don't care for NGE characters the expression on Asuka's face is priceless. Very cool. ^^

Here's mine at the moment.

For some unknown and annoying reason, the program I usually use to resize images has disappeared without a trace. :shady: So I had to use paint. It was so uncooperative and frusterating, I nearly hyperventalated and died. >_< And it looks really cruddy. Argh.

Here's mine. Squee, but I love that skin. Soooo adorable. And my own Mamimi wall.

Skin from winamp.happy-phantom.org. And if you can't tell, that's Solitaire, Detective Conan Edition. :cool:

When I saw that one, it reminded me of the X-Men movie...lol. I don't think my wallpaper has changed at all...I just stick with my favorite.

I finally decided to raise me taskbar. The first picture is my real computer ~ the one I am on now. The second is my virtual machine running on my real computer. It's very confusing.
