Post your desktop!

I think it would be kinda fun if we all took pics of our desktops and posted them here. And no I don't mean with your printer and webcam and stuff. I mean your other desktop, with your start bar and icons and everything, lol.

If you don't know how to do it, here's how. Find the Print Screen button on your keyboard. Mine is next to the scroll lock button. Go to your desktop with the icons and hit Print Screen. Now go to an image viewer, whatever you use to view pictures that are saved on your computer. For me, it's Paint Shop Pro. So open up the program and click on Edit and paste. It should paste your desktop there. Now just save it(.jpg's are best) and post it here...viola! :)

Here is mine, kinda cluttered, and dull...but it serves all my purposes.

K here's mine then too. :) I prefer the uncluttered look, relegating everything to a toolbar instead.

Great idea for a thread Romial and thanks for the instructions on how to do this.



Here's mine, but it changes everyday as I use Webshots. This is one of my favorite's though.

It’s very interesting to see the desk tops with every icon for every program loaded on it and the ones with only their personal wallpaper. :D Here’s mine with only icons from the most frequent called for applications.

Well, as usual, it didn't work for me.....but I'm not surprised! Anyway...if I figure another way, short of taking a pic of it...I'll post it later! Great thread though, Romial! P.S. I use MGI PhotoSuite and I got all the way to "paste" and it wouldn't paste it in the program! *shrugs*

Do you know where that pic was taken SS? It looks just like a stretch of I-5 here in Washington.

Here's my current one, as of an hour ago. I make em myself, though, so whenever the mood strikes, I design a new one, and poof, I have a new backdrop.

Hmmm...it might be under Paste Special. Use the print screen thing to take a screen shot of the desktop then open up MGI and look under the edit menu. See if there's any paste of any kind there. If so, that should work. :)

Hope that helps :)

Good catch Jseal. Those planes fly for Blue Oyster Cult, a band I acquired a taste for back in the 70s.

Well for one reason or another, I can't post a picture of mine. But in the spirit of the thread I'll let you know that I have a picture of my girlfriend as the wall paper with the usual assortment of icons scattered about.
