What does your desktop look like?

Postby Spencer » Thu Jul 10, 2003 11:16 am

I remember this thread from the old MSN forum, so I figured why not remake it.

Anyway, as the title states, post what your computer desktop looks like.

I know what you mean about that. ... And Steve used to laugh at my desktop's lack of icons ... actually, it helps with system resources. Too many icons = sluggish comp.

Anyway, this is my work computer desktop. I usually have an anime one up, but this one was just so cool. So fairy-tale-ish.

*sigh* I wish I could attach my desktop but my computer is having mega problems so I'm stuck on my dad's computer. Gah! :comp:
But really, I love the desktops I'm seeing :dizzy:
"Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Life is but an empty dream!
For the soul is dead that slumbers,
and things are not what they seem.
Life is real! Life is earnest!
And the grave is not its goal;
Dust thou art; to dust returnest,
Was not spoken of the soul."

This is my cat Captain. The tongue is real. ;) Originally I made a poster that said, "Thinking of you" but instead, I put a frame on this one. Oh, and this pic was taken right after she got her summer haircut, so don't laugh too much at my poor baby...LOL

well here my.
I n September of 2012 Megaroad-01 was launched with an escort of fleet of zentraedi warships. From that point on the mass-production of the Megaroad -class colony ship began and soon long-range colony fleets were routinely being launched from earth solar system at a rate of 1-2 per year.
In September of 2022 Megaroad-19 colony ship with it’s escort fleet left earth and headed south fifteen degrees to the right of the southern star. On a mission with three objection; One to search for a planet to colonize, two to see what the rim of the galaxy looks like, three to see if any zentraedi fleets are out there. On July 21, 2025 Megaroad-19 entered its ninth star system and named it the sierra system.
Orbiting the third planet is an asteroid that was some ten miles in size, and a moon that was named Karla.

Y'know, I really don't know, exactly. I just ran Google image searches for wallpaper-sized graphics using keywords like forests and mist.

That's the Mac OS X dock. Here's another way you might see it (my desktop, finally):

Here's my current one, heavily influenced by the movie I saw last night. Kudos to anyone who can guess who *my* favorite character was, or for that matter, the movie...
That's a no-brainer if I ever heard one.
