Here is my non-internet desktop. The one I'm one right now has no games on it cuz it's my family's.

P.S.- The brightness of it may be a little whacked up.

Here's mine. I just love it.

Um, no, just a friend of mine. Does it... look like what I write or something?

I'm not sure what you mean thehtownpoption when you say "Does it look like what I write or something?". Also, I do't mean to be rude, but who ae the two girls in your new vatar, if you don't mind me asking.

My Avatar's pretty obvious for FF fans, it's Rinoa from FF8.

Yoda, I have a question for you. What type of system are you running that alowed "X-Com Apocalypse" to run? The reason I'm asking is because I'm trying to run it on a P4 with a GeForce3 video card, and it's not rnning correctly. I'm using the collector's edition, which has X-Com UFo Defense, TFTD, and Apocalypse for Win 95/98, and if that's what you're unning, I'd like to know if you had a similar problem, and how you fixed it, thanks.

Heh, it was just that I'm a guy and I was wondering if somehow what I write sounds like I'm a girl, because that would somehow be kinda weird.

The two girls are just more friends; actually the one on the left is and the other I don't know who she is. It just looked better if I included both girls. I'm still just trying the avatar thing out, though I pretty much got it (probably change it to something else again). I'm not sure, though, how to cut out stuff so that it stays cut out when I put it in the avatar.

What do you think of the girl on the left? Again, she's not my girlfriend so don't worry about yadda yadda...

She looks nice, and she seems to have a nice smile, but I can't judge personality without talking to someone.

Who was the girl in your first avatar?

Funny, I really don't see what all the confusion is about my avatar. :) I guess it's not a whole lot of confusion, but I think three different people asked about it in three different threads, and then Cyrax asked something about it, too.

Anyway, the first girl is just a friend of mine. We dated once like three years back, but we're friends now. She was studying to be a model for awhile, and I think that was one of her test model pics or something. I don't think she still is modeling, though...

Ok.. who's in your avatar NOW?

To Cyrax- I am running an Athlon T-Bird 1.33 ghz with a GeForce 2 GTS. It works perfectly fine with Win 98 2nd edition. I've never had any problems with it. Sorry that I couldn't help.

I've learned that faster computers are not often compatible with older games (especially newer OS's), but X-Com seems to work fine with me. Sorry again that I couldn't help.

The girl that's on now (blonde in blue) is the first one I had, but this time she's cut out (though it's not very clean, I was just trying to figure it out). She's the one that is sort of a model, but not really.

If you mean the pic of the TWO girls, then I explained that in my response to Cyrax.

I explained both pics because I was fooling around with changing the avatar at about the time you posted, so I'm not sure which pic you're referring to.

Err.. I don't even know what I'm talking about, so I'll just be quiet. :D

how do you pronounce avatar??? i've never really known:unsure:

It's phonetic. But in case you need to hear it:
