I can fit more than one pic into a post without replying to myself ;)

Here's all eight pages of the original: http://207.115.70.83/forum/read_msg....=ubb5&offset=0

Here's what my Windows 98 desktop looks like



Here's my laptop's Windows 2000 desktop



As you can see, the menus are transparant.

Here's some of my other previous desktops, as taken from the Windows Custimization guide ( http://www.3dspotlight.com/tweaks/wi...on/index.shtml )



BlueSteel is an all-time favourite of mine. This perticular screendump is of Windows 98 with Litestep as the shell:



This is closest to what my desktop currently looks like, nice & clean:

My background is kind of a commemorative on still. I am not gonna post my actual desktop picture, but I will put the picture link that i have it set to.

Here ya go.


Oh yeah I keep my desktop pretty clean. The only icon I have on it is the recycle bin. I keep all my shortcuts in my taskbar. It just looks better to me that way.

I previously asked if it were possible to resize images on the jawbreaker forum & the answer was no. Is it still not possible with vB Code ?

I will email it if you want. You have chosen to hide your adress, so just email me & I will reply.

The pic was originally from a website belonging to one of 3DS' forum members. The topic was something like "know any high resolution wallpaper sites" in General Disscussion. I searched the old forum for it but got no results.
