I know we've done this before, but desktops, at least mine change from time to time, so please post your desktop!

Nice, isn't it?

Gamemaster, your Mac Desktop is awesome! I like the entire design, I'm trying to convince my father to make our next family Computer a Mac, because I won't touch Windows XP with a 10 foot pole, I saw the box at "Staples", and I just muttered "who would carry this crap?" Case and point, Bill gates is the Devil. My uncle has a name for him that I liike, hecallsBill Gates "Demonspawn".

HEY!

I use Windows XP...it's not as good as Windows 98 but it's still pretty good...

I'm insulted...(but it did come with my PC, I didn't have much of a choice

how do you make a picture out of your desktop btw?

sdtPikachu · 02-08-2002, 02:22 PM

Press the "Print SCreen" button. It shoudl be somwhere above your INsert key. Then just go to your graphics editor of choice and paste into a new image.

Here's a link to mine if you can't remember what it looked like:

These are awesome guys, keep 'em coming! Also Stu, I know what you mean about WinXP, but my uncle has found a solution to the problem, when gets a PC with WinXP he wipes the HDD and buys a copy of Win98, then he lies about WinXP being defective, and just tells them to take it back, actually lying isn't nessecerley true, after all this is M$ we're talking about, and I've gotten more defective crap from them than anyone else.

Here's my crappy little desktop I made a week ago. I change it all the time, so whatever. Made it in adobe photoshop from scratch.

Meh.

Cyrax9 · 02-09-2002, 06:20 PM

These are Good

,keep 'em comin'. I'm currently making desktop logo's for my Alienware Computer in MS Paint (I know it sucks, but when you're just changing some colors it's easy). So far I've finished the color's "Nova Yellow", "Martian Red", "Conspiricy Blue", "Cyborg Green", and "Plasma Purple". They all say "Custom System" above the color name, and I've chosen the color schemes that look the most like the actual PC cases. They're all on black backgrounds, and the alien face and word "ALIENWARE" are all the color of they system, as well as the words "Custom System", and the name of the color. I haven't made Case Mods, but Desktops are a lot of fun.

Cyrax: Ackkk! So cluttered! I could never live with that desktop.

Anyway, here's mine. Hopefully it worked right.

Gamemaster, two words: kick, ass. Can't wait to get a Mac by the end of the summer.

Pika, I would appreciate tips on how to get such a desktop.

Hmm, didn't work. Trying again. Oh, I see why. I saved it as a TIFF. Time for some Jpg compression...
