Post your Desktop!

[Beskar]

Hah, you should set up other accounts for wife/kids to use. For my laptop, I have a login named "Alternative" which I make Secura use if she comes here. Stops her messing around with my machine.


Anyway, here is the (real) background which is on my desktop computer.

Well, this is one from my current "slideshow":

And Ibn-Khaldun, maybe you have set Photobucket to a maximum image size? I set mine to a max size of 1MB so I can just compress them a bit if they're too big otherwise but it doesn't change the pixel size.

From where can I change it to "a max size of 1MB"? I checked the Account Settings but couldn't see any option like that.

You guys really do need to clean up your icons.

[Azathoth]

Why?

Awesome.

As for my desktop, the background is usually stolen used from somebody's flickr photos. Great place to find some really amazing shots by both amateur/professional photographers.

I definitely agree with the general consensus here of removing the clutter from desktops. Right now though, I just cannot be bothered uploading a pic just yet.

Runescape in the OP's picture? Whahahaha!

I never have my desktop open, so...always have at least a firefox window open in each screen. I also have multimon, so taskbar on my second monitor, is cool

At my old job, I had a cool picture of Ken Masters. But seriously, I went 2 months without seeing my desktop, that ended yesterday.

As for the launching programs debate, I use a free program called Launchy

Alt+Space and I just type in whatever the program is.

"Cheat Engine" pever?

Beskar: awesome image!

I don't have a screenshot of my XP desktop, but I use this picture I took as my current wallpaper:

You saw nothing.

Looking at some of the pics here I notice lots of you have loads of files and folders on your desktops.

I have heard (and I'm pretty sure it's true) that all files and folders on your desktop are loaded into memory when you log in using your user profile. This means that storing lots of files on your desktop will not only dramatically slow down your log in time, but it will also reduce the memory available for your other programs.

Keep your desktops clear of clutter!


Shortcuts are tiny so shouldn't be a problem, but I find a cluttered desktop an annoyance more than anything else, so personally I don't have any icons on my desktop.

My two favorite backgrounds on my slideshow.

Photobucket shrinks my pics!

Use ImageShack

God I am such a nerd. I put my stuff on the oceans to keep it from screwing too much with the map, making my entire desktop as inconvenient as hell. I just throw whatever I use often up there, so not the most compact and efficient way to go about things.

Yessss

His Desktop

I actually laughed

My Taskbar hides itself, and my icons were already tidied away like that before you all were ranting on about icons

But a week ago, it was this:
