Show us your... desktops.

Oh, I love that picture, Steve! The detail is great, and the little cloud at the peak just adds that something special. :)


Edit: Wow, and yours in good too, Snowdog. Three dragons. Shame we can't see it larger...
 
Leish, how come some pics are so much larger than others? Is it something to do with the actual picture used, as opposed to the desktop size, if that makes sense?

Not so much, no. If you use this link, Picture resize - Picture shrink (the one I mentioned at the beginning of this thread), to resize your picture, you need to change the image width to around 600 and the image quality down to about... 70, I think (I'm not too sure with that site; I don't use it myself. I use PSP.)

And, of course, some people's screens are larger too.


I'll upload a picture to the site and have a look...



Edit: Ah, thank you, OR! Will do.
 
Whoa! That's a weird image, Joel. :p


Yep, Py, I've just tried the online resizer. If you set the image width to 600 pixels and the picture quality to 70, you get a reasonable image.
 
If anyone wants the dragon picture, I'll upload the full version. I can't remember where I got it from originally, though a google search might turn it up.
 
Here's my current desktop. Lolcats and a Star Wars reference? How could I resist?:D
 
Here is mine, although the image was too big so I had to make it smaller.

Please note, I only use file sharing programs for legitimate, legal purposes. ;)
 
Lady of Winterfell: I think Leisha told you everything you needed to know about Mac Docks, although I thought I'd add that I use one called Object Dock, which is probably easy enough to find through google. Nice and simple to use and you can add whatever icons you want to it (which I might eventually be able to show once things speed up a little :rolleyes: ) I definitely prefer it to the windows tool bar (life's easier when I can just run my mouse along the icons at the bottom :D) and it makes life tidier, too, as I can get rid of most of the icons that clutter up my desktop -- I don't know how people can cope with all those icons running down the side of their screens (although I like Seph's set up!)
 
thanks hoopy, i will look into that one as well. My husband works with computers so I'm going to give him you and leish's suggestions and have him make it work for me. :D But I always liked the mac setup, so I would like to have that on my pc.
 
Up till three months ago, I kept a fastidiously (one might say fanatically) clean desktop. Didn't want to cover up the pretty pictures. But then I realized how much time I would save if I put a few frequently accessed files on the top. Now I update them once a month.

Otherwise, it's a dark and depressing picture for a dark and depressing winter!:D

edit: btw, why is this thread in the games forum?
 
Who is that dude Culwhch?

Well I'm not Culwhch but if you're referring to his desktop image it's the cover art to U2s 'Rattle and Hum' album. Bono's holding the light and The Edge (I believe) is doing his stuff.
 
Just changed yesterday...
