This wasn't near as much threadcromancy as I thought it was going to be...

I'll just quote it all cuz it's true...

My Laptop desktop

Actually posted as more of a brag than anything, I found an awesome BSoD pic that I set as my background. For those of you who are interested, the BSoD is from Windows version 1. Waaaay classier than the current BSoDs if you ask me. tongue.gif

That, and it masks everything I have in a blue and white blob. thumbup.gif

Edit
Another little thing to add...

I have affectionately named my new computer Lappy 486...

Take that, subtle humor!!!

After almost two years with the same desktop, I decided change was in order.

An Amano painting, that it is:

I'm willing to bet that Amano has even better stuff, though, so I'm not sure how long this particular image'll stay put..

Anyway, that's not my actual desktop, but i find it pretty hilarious.

My actual desktop was simply too boring to post, it's just some artwork from SotN, bah.

I'm not going to post my actual desktop since I change it every few days, but I will put some links up for a few of the screens I have used.
This is from the anime, Read or Die (actually an opening screenshot)

I love Degrassi (because sometimes drama is too funny), and who can go wrong with the gay guy and former emo, who are best friends?

Thus they are my desktop:

Unfortunately a virus is slowly forcing me to reformat so it won't look like this for long (thank god) the wallpaper is more of my pixel art. It's not as good as most since I don't have much time for that anymore, but I like it. cool.gif

Well, this requires some explanation:

My Current Desktop

I have a dual screen setup, but it's makeshifted between a 15" LCD monitor, and a 19" CRT monitor, meaning that my resolution ranges are different for both. The CRT (Right) is slightly higher resolution than the LCD (Left), so sizing and positioning are slightly different. This also means that when I drag my mouse between the two monitors, if I wheel to the top left corner of the right screen, it does not roll into the left screen, as there's an edge.

A - like A - so.

And in case you were wondering, that is the Ion drumset that is coming out for Rock Band 2. I'm totally getting it, and I'm keeping the pic up for inspiration... September, baby!

Edit: I spelled dual like a moron. Durrrrr...

Before I got the dual screen setup, I used this wallpaper, but now I'm using this dual jet setup which I think looks really nice.

Also, hooray for no desktop icons. heart.gif RainMeter.

Seeing as I made this thread... FOUR years ago, I might as well post my current desktop.

this!

New job means at least two new PCs (I hear I might end up with a Vista box and possibly a Mac box too at some point), which means two new wallpapers.

Here's my new XP desktop, it's a screencap I took last weekend while playing Dreamfall: The Longest Journey.

And here's my Linux desktop, with a wallpaper from a Portal collection that I've been working on and probably will release in full to everyone soon.
