Calvin: Yup, I've liked their stuff since 1997. As for the GF's desktop, cute.

I would post my wife's but it is your atypical "rainy day" theme with a picture of her and I. *snicker*

I've also liked:

Mobious Co. - Great stuff
http://www.mobiusco.com/

More great art, mostly for Gnome.
http://www.gnome-look.org

Good artwork as well, mostly KDE
http://www.kde-look.org

Lots of skins & layouts.
http://customize.org/

Same as above, but with other stuff as well.
http://skinz.org/

Well, I don’t know how to take a pic of my desktop, but here’s the background I’m currently using. Just imagine a couple of Kenshin style icons on the left side and you’ll be set.

Post by **halfnhalf** » Wed Feb 02, 2005 7:31 am

press the "print screen" button, usually located next to your F12 button. then use your loavble program Paint, and then paste i there and save to your heart's disre on the format of the picture.

This is the desktop that I want to have but choose not to. Instead I use the plain dull blue colour.

My boring windowz desktop. I'll be posting my far-more-awesome Linux desktop in a while, just have to finish a couple of things here in windowz.

Why so many Icons? And why so plain.

All those icons are stuff that I've downloaded recently and that I'm too lazy to put it into folders.

As for the plainness, well, I just love that picture of Gisele, and it fits perfectly with my 1280x800 resolution. It's also because I hate clutter, which sounds contradicting considering my desktop is just full of crap.

My desktop res is 1280X1040, and I hardly ever have any icons on my desktop and thats the way I like it..

come on Buzkashi, spice up your background a bit and dont tell me its your family computer, XP has different logins, unless you really like that background....

Post by **Buzkashi** » Thu Feb 03, 2005 3:26 am

It is my family comp its the only one ive got, and i dont care for seperate log ins. And on another note i would keep this backround even if it was my own private computer because its easier on my eyes.

Post by **Starnum** » Thu Feb 03, 2005 4:04 am

Yeah, I try to keep my desktop as devoid of icons as possible. Five icons, that's all I have.

Buzkashi: Come on man, you can do better than that. You've got to represent something.

I can't stand default settings *shrugs*.

Mmmm... desktop realestate.... if you prefer your desktop devoid of clutter then you are a minimalist. welcome brothers.
