View Full Version : May as well...
...post a sort of "showoff" thread.
Terrible IQ but I took the photos in a very "not arsed" mood :p

Not bad for a student room!
For some reason, I still wonder why it gets warm in here sometimes...
Just a bit smarter than mine :(
When I've tidied up a bit I'll take some photos but it's not quite as impressive stuff as you :D
Cool room to have as a student - I presume that's in halls?
I couldn't afford any of that 6/7 years ago when I was at uni :( That's quite a decent setup you've got there - albeit a little cramped for my liking.

Yeah, its in halls and yes, its very cramped. These were built very much on the cheap in the 70s when having much more than a radio was unheard of. I am pretty much used to the size of the rooms now. It would be nicer to have a bit more space (or a bigger bed!!) but that can wait until I have my own place I suppose.

sweet setup there matey. A little cramped but as you say you get used to it. My uni room was pretty cramped too.
I'll have to get my home office sorted out, then I'll post a pic of my 3 x 24" Dell widescreen setup. Totally OTT, but it rocks.
I'll get a pic of mine tomorrow.

If I post a picture of mine (actually - I'd need to do 3 to show it all) you'd tease me, so I'll just sit in the corner going :P

Just nicking my flatmate's PCs, hifis and iPods ;)

Despite it being a bit cramped I still think that's an awesome play pen! :cool:
A double bed is all you need and frankly that would be a perfect room. I like a bit of floor space so I can bounce around to music, do pressups and that sort of crap, but frankly that's an ace room :cool:
Little boxy rooms are great for personalising - I bet your audio sounds pretty decent in there too no?
Seems a clown has left their hands on your wall.
A very nice setup there, let down terribly by the two skanky 70's phones in your room :p
Other than that it looks damn good nice one :)

Slight problem there. I've seen the pics sans PCs/hifis/iPods, so I'll have a good idea what's yours and what isn't. :p :D

I don't have nearly as much cool stuff, but I'm working on it...darn girlfriend :p
It's lighter than it looks...and to the side is the en-suite...

Facing the opposite direction, a wonderful view of the carpark...

Pretty cool uni room though :) I'll have to dig out photos of my halls from 3 years back, they were way too tiny.
Damn Beanie - that's awesome!
My old Uni room in 2003. Horrible place with wafer thin walls.

It's better than my room at home!
What you can't see is the floor behind my PC (need a wide-angle lens or something), there's a double wardrobe & huge expanse of floor with a nice rug on it, it's my dance/party mat :D

Ditto!
Woah Beanie - im jealous! That really is a rather nice room indeed!
/me craves just a tad more space :(
@Le Hoff, the audio side of things does sound good but the size of the room is a ridiculously limiting factor. It sounds pretty sweet at home though :)

I'd rather have your hifi & triple TFTs:D
I have a hifi at home - just some cheap Sony thing, though it sounds pretty good - here I just have my earphones & some Logitech PC speakers I bought. Can't really compare :(
Seems a clown has left their hands on your wall.
:p
Thats a pair of TomTom hands! Pinched them from the display at work :D
I was going to post "what's with the tidyness, fools?".
Then I saw Mohinders. That's more like it. Lived in, used. Just how a room should be.
Mo's room isn't that untidy really though is it?

Beanie, did you have much trouble building the corner desk like I did, or is it seperates?
:p

Oh yeah so they are. How random :D

Dude, what the hell is that draped over that chair?
And only one TFT? I expected more ;)

Looks to me like a checkered beach towel, colour side down.
My entire house used to look like Moh's room....and then a girl moved in.

So you mean your house got messier?
SEriously, Moh's room isn't that bad. At least there's no dirty clothes, plates, and other crap around. It looks like a used room rather than a show room ;)
Long live cosy living, down with immaculate-ness :p

Thats not your room, your room is a ****tip with zero space :p
With two people in that room you can't move without falling over each other.
You have 3 monitors now?

It's my snakes and ladders towel which I forgot to turn over for the photo :D
With laptop by PC and running Synergy (shares keyboard/mouse over network) it's pretty close to a dual screen, but with twice the computing power:D
Ah yes Synergy, very handy that. I still <3 my dual mons though :p
I want another monitor :( Maybe if I work hard at Christmas, I can afford it.
Synergy2 & dual monitors ftw :D
right...time to post some pics of my "setup" when i get home :D

The two aren't related, honest ;)
I'm not posting a pic of my desk till I've tidied it. It's in an embarrassing state ATM.

Well if we're showing off desks, this is mine from April.

Its missing a Macbook Pro.
I was going to post "what's with the tidyness, fools?".
My room is so small that what you can see makes it look HORRENDOUSLY messy in real life. My speakers absolutely dominate the room and my chair takes up a huge amount of my floorspace - if I lean back in the chair I can make it hit the bed whilst still being able to type on the keyboard.
There is a smallish pile of washing where I was stood to take the photos, so really its a matter of scale/perception. In my (slightly) bigger bedroom at home I do manage to generate an awful lot of mess ;)

I can imagine you saying that, drumming your fingers on the table with a raised eyebrow.
Durz, you're in trouble :)
