Show us your... desktops.

[Sephiroth]

Yeah, congrats.





Oh, I can't be hypnotised, you know?

Even when I went with it, I never really felt properly 'under'. It was relaxing, but I was still totally in control of myself the whole time......

 

[Erin99]

one more you say = you would not be spamming would you now loopy

Er... no.

Heh. Actually, I like commenting on people's pictures. There are some lovely ones in here.

Take mine for example:

Hehe.



I bet I could hypnotise you, Seph. And I'd get you to give me your koala sweets too.


Edit: Who! And now I'm on 1500! Fantastic. I like that number.

 

[Overread]

hmm I think I recognise that one from somewhere............
but where?

 

[Erin99]

Hmmm... I wonder.

Except it's purplised!


Doh! And now I'm on 1501! Grrr!

 

[Sephiroth]

Bet you couldn't.

 

[Erin99]

Bet I could.

We could go on all day.

 

[Overread]

ooh Leisah has wolf shot !!!!!

 

[Erin99]

I have a few wolf shots (not *mine*, however).

He looks a little streched, though...


What's on your desktop? Last time I saw, it was a big cat, I think.

 

[Sephiroth]

Couldn't.

 

[Erin99]

Are you just gonna spam, mister, or will you post your desktop too?


Oh, and could.

 

[Sephiroth]

Could.


And here, just for you, is my current, riveting desktop display.

 

[Grimward]

Have to admit, Seph, that is quite riveting...

 

[Sephiroth]

Not as much as that, though. But it's the wrong shape for a desktop.





S'pose I could tilt it on its side...............?


I will pick a new picture eventually, but nothing has caught my fancy as yet.

 

[Commonmind]

lol. I remember, back in the old days, I would install everything I got my hands on and would arrange my icons around the borders of the desktop, just like you have. When the icons eventually spiraled into the middle and there was no more room, I reformatted and reinstalled Windows. It was quite possibly the best gauge for maintenance I've ever used

 

[Sephiroth]

Heh. Yeah. My rule is that I am not allowed any more icons than fit around the edge of the screen once.

So if, or rather when that happens, I have to be ruthless. What do I need? What do I not really need?


To be honest, there are already some superfluous ones there, but they haven't been there long enough to annoy me yet, since everything is still shiny and new.

I was considering having folders with groups of icons in them at one point, but...that sort of defeats the purpose of having a desktop, doesn't it?

A click and then a double click? Eww, no thanks...... ;p

Wow, nomad, that's brilliant! I once tried moving backgrounds because I thought the idea was cool, but it used up too much of my system resources.

You draw very well.

Thanks alot Leisha. Very much appreciated.
I'm a consumate multitasker. In fact I have a friend in Singapore named bracer who would swear I'm either genetically female or an alien for all the things I do at the same time. As such moving backgrounds are no sweat. and as to my resourses, I try to keep the frames under 100. so thats not a problem.
before I learned to draw my own pics I made 400 frame gifs. No problem.
I wish I could post the links to the rest of my stuff here.
(The ones that dont violate copyright law of couse), But I need a few more posts before I can do that.
But If you're interrested I have them posted at the Save Andromeda .com
site. It's really quiet there though. I hate it when good things die.
here are a couple of frames.

Thanks for the kind words floks.
As to the resourse problem . no problem. My machine can handle much more.
Plus I try to keep my animations below 100 frames.
I have made some with 400. But that was before I learned to draw my own pic's.

As to the distraction, I'm a consumated multitasker. so I like the motion.
I have a friend in Singapore named Bracerjack who would swear I was genetically female for my multitasking.
I can't yet post the links here. However I have posted them at Save Andromeda site. under graphics / Walpaper and Vengance of Apollo.
Here are a couple of frames.

 

[Erin99]

You know, nomad, you can post animated gifs here too.




---------------------------------------

Oh, and Seph, COULD!!!

 

[Sephiroth]

Yeah, post an animated one if you can (if they're small enough?) so we can see it in action!










(.....could, Leish. )

 

[Erin99]

ROTFLMAO!

Could. And you need a new desktop. At least pick a purple colour if you're being pictureless!
