Photos The 'post your desktop' thread

Tolsk where did u get ur theme from...i like it do u still have a copy???? can u pass it on please.

 

If my memory serves me right...it's Longhorn Slate.

 

It's ok, only a temp background, currently looking for something a bit darker with the same basic theme.

I used to have a smart wallpaper but then I changed it and didn't like the new one so just used a standard colour

blimey, that's a lot of quick-launches!

 

You might wanna look at http://www.realtimesoft.com/ultramon/ if your running a dual monitor setup. It sorts a lot of things and makes it more fun to have two monitors.

 

second monitor ends up being strictly irc/aim/msn/icq etc.... i'll toss iTunes over there too if i'm using cad or something so i can check songs etc... but other than that, it's simply to unclutter my main desktop.... normally they're not even the same size (my main screen being at 1600x1200 normally)

 

where are you hosting your images? mine are all too big. even when I scale down 50% its still around 2MB. (of course, it is dual screen)

 

Uh, I fit dual 1600*1200 images, saved at high quality JPEG format, in under 1MB. Hosted on Imageshack until I got my own site. What are you saving them as, bitmaps?

I've never quite understood the point of removing all the icons from a desktop environment. Yes, you're removing a slight bit of clutter, but how often do you actualy sit down and stare blankly at your computer monitor without a program of some sort running?

A computer should be a work of art, but it also should constitute some function. My most used applications go onto the desktop, and I utilize the links provided (either that or I just use the quick launch features on my keyboard, or my remote-wonder)

 

i wouldn't like it because there wouldn't be space to show all the different apps I usually have running.

 

Maybe it's just because I haven't slept in a few days, but I can't quite work out how having icons set on your desktop would make any impact as to how many programs you are running...

Can't you just like move a window over the icons if they're bugging you so much? Or change the icon?

 

I have only the recyicle bin on the desktop. (because i can't remoe it) If i hide all the icons on the desktop it becomes a hazzle to save things there (saved things doesn't show up either). and if i remove the recyclebin i cant put things in it.

I have quicklaunchbuttons to access programs. the start->programs menu gets used wery rarely. Having icons on the desktop is a waste, as i have to remove windows to get access to them.

 

I was specifically talking about the quicklaunch (not desktop) shortcuts.

And looking back, I was actually talking about/to Barry.
