The New desktop screenshot thread

Read the rules thread. I will not repeat this.

I added a relaxed upper limit of 800px wide for any images due to the increasing prevalence of widescreen monitors; if yours is bigger and you do not enclose your image in spoiler tags, you will be infracted. The 640x480 limit has been in the rules for over a year. Even then, use your judgment; make it smaller than 640px if at all possible. Either shrink your image down to 640x480 or put it in spoilers. This isn't rocket science.

Might I add that it would be a good idea to update the title of the thread so that people will know to look in the first post to see the rules update. If they are like me; they read the first post and look for rules but only do that when they first start to post in the thread. Now that your 'announcement' is on another page, people are not going to see it. With no noticeable clue to direct people to the first thread, no one is going to visit the first page and read the rule update. People are going to get pissed (I would) when they start getting infractions when there was an update to the rules and no one told them. You seriously can't expect everyone to read every page every time they visit they thread.

I am a fan of Leo Laporte's TWiT network (twit.tv), so this explains my Windows XP desktop's background

Spoiler:


And then a random search for awesome face on Google Images lead me to this background on my Windows 7 laptop

It's either geektool or rainlendar.

I decided to give rainmeter another try. Not sure if I'll keep it.
Spoiler:

Your Omnimos are misaligned :(

I always thought Omnimo was cool, but I could never get myself to use it. So I just went spelunking on customize.org to take bits and pieces that I liked off skin packs.

I have no idea how many times I've done this. Seems to be on EVERY single forum on the internet. >.>

I decided to look into something else in my latest desktop wallpaper.

Anyone here remember the Looney Tunes cartoons? Such classics they were.

This wallpaper shows one of the biggest love affairs from the series - Pepe Le Pew & Penelope.

Spoiler:


I loved Looney Tunes cos it's funny.

Got lucky and found this pretty good background right after my Code Geass obsession.

Here's a nice Assassin's Creed themed desktop for you. Pre-shrunk*. I was using my old Batman theme, but I figured it was time for some variation. :D

When I was building my computer I looked at the processor and though that it might make a cool wallpaper, I was not disappointed.
