    Shameless self promotion of one's own thread...

    I finally found some stuff i'd been looking for, which meant i could do away with all my shortcuts and bask in the glory of my shiny desktop.

    Here's mine. It is one of the loading screens from Europa Universalis III and I really think it is one of the best loading screens from any of the Paradox games. Also lots of browns and dark colours means that it doesn't hurt my eyes to look at.

    You play the Xtended mod for X3? I'm thinking about reinstalling for that, it's been about a year since I played, looks like they haven't gone beyond the 0.7.3 version yet.

    Really? The added synergies, imo, really added a whole new layer to the game. Plus, the game is much harder so even if you have a fully decked out enigmadin, a nasty modded frenzytaur pack can still take you out in like 3 hits.

    I forgot which version of the Xtended mod I had, but I basically stopped playing since it took me forever to even get close to how big my empire was in my original game. I had a fully functional headquarter + materials +weapons complex producing Ls every 45 minutes to fill up my fleet of 5 carriers and 15 destroyers, but all of that was, alas, gone when I installed the mod and I never found the incentive to spend all of the time getting everything again

    Well I don't quite get the point of pimping my desktop, I don't spend that much time there after all, so it's pretty messy and not much of a spectacular sight.

    If anyone thinks that manga.py actually is me reading manga, then think again. It's a script that I sent to a manga reading friend of mine and that successfully printed a thousand word documents on his desktop. I later tested the script on myself with 40 K documents; but it took forever, so I just halted it at 30 K. However, loading the desktop now took forever, so I had to change user in order to get rid of them all.
