Windows 7 is actually >9000 times better than Vista, and competes with OS X. Very good job by Microsoft. I still use OS X mostly though.

donavannj December 11th, 2009 9:43 PM

Yes... I have 53 icons on my desktop. 53. Count 'em. I dare ya.


jigglyppuff8 December 11th, 2009 10:12 PM

I only have two because I'm minimalist like that. Also they're custom. ⊂(゚ヮ゚)⊃

An unfortunate string of events led me to reformat my hard drive and reinstall my applications (yes, my desktop's theme represents my feelings about the situation), here are the results.

Nothing special, really. I actually just changed the background last night. I really wanted to use a picture of the Lenin Mausoleum, but I couldn't find any decent pictures. Oh well, Red Square is prettier anyways.

Epic wallpaper. :]

So yeah, that be my current desktop.

Since my hard drive died, I thought I would try out Gnome this time around. It seems KWin handles Vsync and video better than Compiz does. :(

Yes, I know Marx and Stalin et. al. are very different politically, it's still a funny picture.


My desktop is very bland; I guess i can show it to you guys, but it's not exciting in the least.



I'm using an icon theme that uses Tango icons, so it kind of looks consistent with my Linux installs (except it's ugly, as opposed to looking cool). I value consistency over pretty.

I've got a few games there, some icons to control power, some shortcuts, two batch scripts I wrote (one to decode FLAC, the other to encode in AAC), a few programs, and that's about it. I have my D: data partition, Firefox, and the command line in quicklaunch, and have Azureus, Firefox, and Metapad assigned to keyboard shortcuts (CTRL+ALT+A,F, and M, respectively).

I was thinking of applying a theme, but I like my performance, despite how awesome I could make it look. And I decided against a wallpaper because black background is easier on my eyes.

Running Vista Home Premium. And, for the record, Vista is awesome, and you haters are full of crap.

It's a Cowboy Bebop wallpaper... and yes, I do store folders on my Desktop. But I can get away with it in Vista because there are no spaces in the folder names anymore.

Icons are ew, so I hid them all. But I reckon this image is pretty epic.


Pokémon Ranger ✩ Moriarty January 10th, 2010 5:26 AM

WAKE UP! pretty much sums mine up XD Mac OSX and a 1280x800 screen resolution, although I resized this to 800x500. :3



It's a scan I took of Byron, Hareta and Piplup from Diamond & Pearl Adventures! V2C4. I didn't like it being solid black and white though, so I ran a dark blue exclusion layer over it in Photoshop to give it that awesome faded look. :3 I keep all of the essays/stories I'm working on at present on my desktop, and I normally have my palette hidden, but I pulled it up for this screenshot because the first one looked drab. Oh yeah, and my little hard-drive symbol is a TARDIS, but I'll be damned if I can remember how I did that.

This is one of the six or so pictures that rotates on my netbook. Before you ask, it's a Hackintosh netbook. For the less computer literate among us, a Hackintosh is a PC that runs OS X through a hacked/patched kernel and drivers for PC hardware. It works just like a real Mac after all of the patches are applied.

Ironic how it's 100% Apple when it's running on PC hardware :D

Gerri Shin January 12th, 2010 2:55 PM

Not much extreme with my desk. I prefer no icons whatsoever for the best look. Even the bowlet slinks off to the left side after it's done displaying the song.

Another one of my desktops running on my legit Mac. If you get the reference (for those who know what show it comes from), you get a cookie. A really, really big cookie. That's fresh out of the oven.

And yes, I do store files on my desktop. Weird, since I'm usually very organized. A bunch of them are for my FireRed hack, still under development.

Team Rocket's Raichu January 17th, 2010 5:34 PM

This is my background. I just took images of space from Google, and used paint to put them all together. :)

I also blanked out two things, because I don't want people to know what they are. (No, they are not porn. :))

Ever since 7 decided to be an amnesiac and told me that it wasn't activated (and then refused to activate despite me having a valid product key, which I got from Digital River and used to activate it prior), I decided to install XP in a virtual machine for my hacking tools.

Its a fresh install; nothing major has been done to it. I'm still installing 69 updates for it. It probably wasn't a good idea to allocate 2 virtual processors and 2 GB of RAM to it; OS X is lagging a lot.

Aizuke January 23rd, 2010 1:57 PM



I was going to wait until I found some cool custom gadgets, but alas, I found nothing. And to be honest, I kinda like the chunky taskbar because of how small the screen is. XD It fits it.

I really ought to customize mine a bit more. It's just that the last time I did that, everything slowed so much at startup that it got annoying. ;; So I've just stuck out with having cool wallpapers now. xD

Don't ask why I have two versions of Photoshop.

donavannj February 8th, 2010 6:46 PM
