Show us your... desktops.

[Highlander II]

For your icons - if they're shortcuts already, rt-click on one, then click on 'properties', there should be a button near the bottom that says 'change icon' - click that and it'll let you browse image files on your PC. There are some lame defaults, then you can make your own too.

Some of the other more tech-savvy folks may have some other ideas for you too.

Wow. And I thought JCrew was behind the times w/ their systems. (worked there over X-mas) They at least have PCs now instead of the old mainframe systems.

C'mon K-mart - catch up.


This is my current wallpaper. I changed it the other day when I was 'optimizing'.

Wy, mine at work looks quite similar. Go Rebel Sport. Except we have a massive keyboard which is really really really confusing.

Okay I did this the other day. This is just my background change. The rest of my desktop is the same as before. My Boredom by ~Majimaune on deviantART

I'm fairly sure that I'd get arrested for industrial espionage if i brought a camera into work, but here's the only pic i could find of the desktop I'm using

 

[HardScienceFan]

no self respecting computer illiteral should show his desktop
So i won't.
According to Len i'll live longer,knowing not too much about computers.
Is it true that there are hamster on treadwheels inside,to power up the harddrive?

 

[Joel007]

For the purposes of this conversation... yes, yes there are.

 

[HardScienceFan]

and the biscuits that are stored?
the so-called cookies?
don't he crumbs mess up the works?*
why isn't here a single key for ctr alt delete?

*or do the hamster eat the cookies?
and why OLE,the Spanish jubilation?

 

[Joel007]

The whole point of ctrl alt del is that you can't hit it by accident, as with one key!
Anyway, you can still hit it with one hand, I do the "3 finger salute" many times a day
I use Ctrl Shift ESC more often these days.

Mmmmm, cookies. I deleted mine

 

[HardScienceFan]

who else loves the totally uninformative and non-comittal
"windows has encountered a problem'?

my Zone Alarm warns of any communist attacks,Joel
I'm very proud of it

 

[Joel007]

ah, the "red flag" system.

I hate it when windows tells me to contact my systems admin... that's me, dammit!

 

[HardScienceFan]

has anyone ever found '404',BTW?
does IP stand for Intelligent Poodle,Joel?
I often wonder if Caps Lock and Scroll Lock are family.
they must be,with such a unique name

 

[Joel007]

Error 404 means file not found. wrong address usually.
IP stands for Internet Protocol I think. Although it could mean Irate People.
Num Lock is their son.

Dammit, it's hard to Rickroll someone when it won't instantly redirect.

 

[HardScienceFan]

sorry for misleading you Joel
apparently underlining and blue almost automatically says 'hyperlink',at least on my pc
you weren't supposed to click it
call me estranged,but what IS a Rickroll?

 

[Joel007]

I didn't click it, it's obviously not a valid link

I need a better redirect page...
