    Got a little wild and decided to put 7 on my gaming machine:

    You know LNCPapa, you can put all those Game shortcuts in one folder
    It's pretty hard to actually see your Desktop, with all those icons on it :p

    Woosh, my ASUS EEE PC ( xandros OS ) desktop... Temporary, until I can get an external dvd rom drive to install WinXP or Win7 ^~ Yes all my wallpaper have a similar theme, and I designed it of course cept the anime girl ;p

    My desktop usually has almost no icons on it - but seeing as how this machine is used only for gaming and bluray burning I decided to stick it all out in the open so that I can respond to a whim quickly before the feeling passes.

    Actually in Xp, you can just right click anywhere on your Desktop and hide the Desktop icons (a nifty feature)
    Not sure if Windows 7 has that as well. Actually I still have not even looked at it yet - but that's for another thread

    In line with this thread - I usually have the newest photos of my kids as a Desktop background, and change when a new scenic picture is taken :) So a little difficult for me to upload here ;)

    That's funny - I have changed mine a bit as well - but still on windows mainly.

    Our desktop consists of a photograph, which we change from week to week. The trouble is my partner has a fettish for taking pictures of me in the nude and invariably posts one of these as the desktop picture! I get my own back and post one of him though! That aside the pics are mostly decent pictures of where we have been or done. I would love to fool around with colours via Display but my partner has to have Windows Classic and it's his computer.

    I'm still running good old XP :) I used 7 for a while, but got tired of the countless permission problems. Sorry for the big pic, IDK how to use thumbnails =S

    Hahaha... 2 of my 3 computers look EXACTLY LIKE 90% OF COMPUTERS NOWADAYS!! Generic boring black boxes with "fancy" LED power buttons. Third one is an "Old computer gray" square box. Nothing flashy here.

    A desktop screenshot, not a picture of your physical computer. So pretty much what nearly everyone in the tons of pages of this thread did when they linked a pic. You are kind of off to a rough start around here spikester.

    Why, It's as Pretty as a Picture...........

    Well thank goodness I have a degree in photography, that will enable me to balance the exposure, so that I can show the case of my Emachine "in it's best light", while maintaining the beautiful blue glow of the power button. ;)

    Can I photograph the back of my case, or would that be considered computer porn?:confused:

    Did somebody start our annual, "Computer Special Olympics" event without inviting me, (again)?:rolleyes::haha:

    Not only that spikester, but if you turn them upside down they all look alike.
