    I am after a 1280*1024 screen shot of your desk top, preferable tiger, but any OSX would do...

    Want to fool some mates with my windows desk top...

    I cant give you a screenshot at that resolution as my Cube is in pieces and iBook only supports 1024x768. I can however send you the background and a screenshot which you can Photoshop if you like. I really recommend buying a Mac though. That way you get to "fool" your friend and get a decent computer.

    Oh.. I used to be a Mac man guys but I got away from them...

    Gaming was pitful and everything was to expensive/hard to find...

    I would like to get one of those blue/orange iBooks, always had a soft spot for them...

    What format DO you want it in? If not JPEG..
    And what would you like it have visable in that image?
    The dock? top bar? finder? iCal? ...

    You need to be a bit more specific

    The background image is a jpeg anyway, converting that to a non-compressed format won't help at all...

    Oh just the little dock thing down the bottom open and a few things on the desktop that makes it look like it is used.

    JPEG is okay but it has to be on the better image quality, but the equivilent of bitmap would be good...

    Oh and try not to get the mouse on the screen....

    THANKS MAC GUYS!

    But converting it into a jpeg makes it twice as bad.

    Go and try it, get a jpeg then take a screen shot and save it as a jpeg twice. You will see what I mean.

    Arn't you going to have to convert it to JPEG to set it as a background? I would do it but by ibook can't do higher than 1028 :(

    It's a TFT, screensavers are just for amusement these days.
