View Full Version : Post your desktops *Modems swallow*
Just realised that we are missing a desktop screenshot thread. Keep the pictures to 1024*768 and lets see what you have got :)
I have just found this wallpaper and I really really like it. I have to kill the tellytubby xp taskbar with either litestep or something like that. Just reinstalled windows so thats my excuse :)
Come on all, lets have a look

I also want to make those icons smaller.... they annoy me. I am only running 1280*1024 which is part of the problem.

My Desktop currently :)
Too lazy to take a screeny: My desktop (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v205/Takhisis_uk/Cartoons%20and%20Artwork/AmyLeeEvanescence.jpg) Just imagine a recycle bin, My Docs, and My Computer in the bottom corner and a toolbar on autohide down the side
It normally get changed every few weeks or so but this ones been there probably close to 2 months now

I remember on another forum I visited once upon a time they'd have a monthly 'post your desktop' thread. Yes it was a bit of a geeky userbase where people tended to change everything down to their windows themes once a month. Even so, it was a great place to see some wallpapers or themes you might not have heard about and which you might want, so a rule was put on there that a screenshot should reference everything in the picture which someone might want to find...

Windows: BW, or 'Brushed Metal'.
Wallpaper: No idea, I can send if you drop me an email though.
Winamp skin: Dark_Materia
That wallpaper is ****ing gorgeous.
What resolution do you have it in?
I told Mic this thread had started and he asked how many pictures of women/skantily clad women had be posted already...
I said only 1 woman and that was my one :embarassed:

Bit messy atm. The cd box would ordinarily show the image of the last album I listened to but not listened to any music yet today.
mines like KK only much more cluttered ;)

I normally turn desktop icons off, since the rebuild (when Saiken became Phoenix) I haven't, but I delete them all and the recycle bin is hidden behind an eve client most of the time :p
I only have 3 icons on my desk top and they get moved around depending on what wallpaper I'm using, I have a side toolbar on autohide for everything else

Wallpaper : I'll have to look this up tonight. Its off deviantart, but I can't remember who or what as I've used it every now and then for at least the last 2 - 3 years.
Theme: WindowBlinds from stardock, using I think its called Dogma4XP ? that provides most of the customisation, windows themes, icons etc. etc.

Damn, windowblinds... there I was hoping a simple uxtheme patch would be enough :(
Found the wallpaper I'm using:
http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/8116849/?qo=2&q=unclaimed&qh=boost%3Apopular+age_sigma%3A24h+age_scale%3A5
my desktops and themes are so standard - doesnt installing gui enhancers and so on slow down the machine?
my desktops and themes are so standard - doesnt installing gui enhancers and so on slow down the machine?
Marginally, but not nitceably, but it also depends on the GUI enhancer, it only occasionally flicks up into the 1% CPU usage area, and takes <17Mb of RAM with this theme running, even with its small alpha blends.
Without actually making a screenshot (I'm worn out due to having lurgy/flu for last few days) it is currently a Trivium album cover. Before that it was this:
http://img181.imageshack.us/img181/3493/logonoporn4804ze.jpg
after finding several unsavoury searches in the Google searchbar.
Heh heh, did it have the desired effect?
Yep - unless he's discovered how to cover his tracks!

Not so much the wallpaper it's all the other guff that goes on in the background like MS data grabbing, pretty lights, tricks & bits. I've stripped out my windows to bare bones with minimal services,processes & progs.
It's a head thing and keeps me competitive, i can't have anything else to worry about whilst i am killing.
Fair play :)
Like that wallpaper Zirax
You ought to knock up a quick guide, Pikey as to what you've turned off and removed from Windows if you've got the time and the inclination. Be interested to see that.
He probably used black viper's service guide.

Black Viper sucks and posts any tip he can get his hands on whether tested or not by him personally, Whatever you do DON'T try his Vista tweaks.
Bit harsh that as a year or so ago he was the man but it seems recently he hasn't as much time to fully test his tweaks.
Mine are mine alone and fully tested by me, having to budget and run a system to compete with the latest systems i have gradually worked my way through numerous pages on sites then tested them myself. Even though my system is dated i am usually first on a 64 man BF2 map with pings lower than 20. When i used to play source my pings were below 10 and usually around 4 believe it or not. Constantly got kicked for hacking or rates by crap players with crap set ups though, Pfffff.
Doing a guide would be really hard but when i am bored i will try.

Here's mine at the moment. I don't see it very often as I'm usually doing stuff which obscures it - that's why there are no icons to clutter it up. I prefer to use the quick launch toolbar for stuff I use regularly. The taskbar is normally auto-hidden but is showing for the screenshot.

Loooked it up on digital blasphemy but you have to pay for it :shocked:
We have a large amount of digital blasphemy stuff (1997-2003), varying resolutions, including the s'room in both blue and red and in 1600x1200 if anybody is interested
edit - just found the s'room in green and "canvas" (1600x1200) too
Here are my latest from Ubuntu :)

The album cover displays whatever is playing in Amarok at the time. Ubuntu and XP logos launch my Virtual Boxes.

edit - just found the s'room in green and "canvas" (1600x1200) tooFound it for free as one of the samples from that Digital Blasphemy site. Thanks for the offer though, are there any other wallpapers in that lot you have special? :)

KK - there are loads of great ones from DB, have a look around the site and make note of any names of wallpapers you like, then I can have a look through the folders I have to see if we've got it :)

I can do better than that.
Theme Here (http://customize.org/xpthemes/47528)
Wallpaper Here (http://amigaworld.net/modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=6)
If I were you, I'd check the entire amigaworld site as there are some really nice images to use as wallpaper.
For a long time I liked the "milk" XP theme, but at the moment I prefer my current one.
You using conky to do your album art and shortcuts Des?
No mate. The album cover is just a plugin for Amarok. The shortcuts are just normal shortcuts but I found some Ubuntu and XP logos for the icons.

Nope, but here it is in 1920x1200 which you can resize as needed :)

Use the snipping tool.
Have found a little app that writes registry commands to remap keys. About to reboot and find out if it worked..!
Success \0/

I like to keep things clean and simple, just like my mind. Well, maybe not the clean bit :p
Love that Des :)
Started playing around with Emerald last night as I got a bit bored with standard. Then went on the hunt for a nice wallpaper :)
I rarely spend any time looking at themes/wallpapers and such these days, figure I'm too busy using the poota to notice. I look at your desktop and think I really should :o
It's real simple. I can send you the theme and desktop pic if you want. All you need to install is Emerald from the repos and then maybe spend 10mins tweaking the theme a little.

Please excuse my ignorance but how did you get your XP themed like that? And what's Emerald? Isn't that Linux-based?
It is Linux, and that is Linux ;D
Send em my way Des, thanks :)
You got PM :)
phykell, as Daz says, it is Linux :) Ubuntu 8.10 at the moment.
Linux, that's not UNIX! UNIX is supposed to be green text on a black background! :evil:
I did a project just recently that was moving the user authentication and DB2 database back-end to Kerberos authentication via Active Directory and Oracle on AIX. It was all C-based work, like going back in time 15 years but it was really enjoyable - real programming where it's about writing elegant, functional, solid code :cool:
The only thing I didn't like was the new keyboards IBM provide with their AIX boxes - no micro-switched 5kg slabs of metal and plastic anymore, they're all like normal flyweight, spongy crap PC keyboards :(

Also I keep trying to dump WLM but I can't get settled on Pidgin or Digsby. Pidgin works fine for me apart from file sending and receiving. Something just doesn't work right there.

Hanso theme bundles with Ubuntu Karmic, Gnome-Do running as Docky, MotionWood (http://neodesktop.deviantart.com/art/MotionWood-Wallpapers-133685690) wallpaper.
Not 100% happy with some of the theme colours - blue text on a brown background in the FF awesome bar for example - but it's a pretty nice place to be :)
